GINZA CAFE - Greenville — Restaurant in South Carolina

I rarely leave a five star review but this place deserves it. Location - excellent, easy in, easy out. Decor - excellent, its a cafe and they really did a great job with the modern flair. Service - Excellent, the cashier and assistant were friendly and courteous. Food - We tried several items. The spicy salmon rolls with crunch are the best hands down in the area. The salmon is NOT all minced up, the spice is correct, the crunch IN the roll is correct and the rolls don't fall apart. The General Tso was excellent and the Hibachi Steak was Excellent. Seasoning was spot on and NOT over cooked! Maintenance - The floors and tables were clean. Service area looked clean. I did not check the bathroom or try to peak in the kitchen. But I will next visit. Overall, what a pleasant surprise this place was. I was expecting rolls more in line with what they sell at Publix and instead they were restuarant quality rolls. This place takes being a cafe to the next level. Whoever owns this place really has done an exceptional job at buiding a great business. I just hope they keep up the good work! Price - The roll prices were good no complaints. The hibachi for the portion probably a bit high. Same for the General Tso. But not really out of line for the area or for the quality of food they are serving. I don't give out praise lightly and I think most people won't mind the prices considering the qualty and portions. In conclusion, this location has the BEST sushi rolls...

3.24.2022 is my most recent visit. I always forget to take photos of the best looking meals, and when I do remember it is when I've already begun eating so the plates appearance is messed up. I've dined here 3 times now and my wife has been here a few times with her friends for lunch. Everything is fresh and tasty and the staff is friendly, smiling, and very polite, always asking if we are satisfied or in need of anything. We've enjoyed Sushi rolls: California, Spicy Tuna, Eel , and it was very good and the price very reasonable. Likewise, I once had the Korean Spicy Ramen with Pork Belly. It was a large quantity of very savory broth, noodles, and a generous portion of delicious sliced pork. My wife had a Shrimp Veggies w/fried Rice hibachi which was beautifully plated and very tasty. I had some of hers, but she loved it too. Today for lunch we have stir-fry bowls of Mongolian Beef and Shrimp/Veggies bot with fried rice. The serving was more than my wife could eat. The Mongolian Beef was great, loaded with sweetly spiced beef and green and yellow onions and some kind of mild green pepper. I was very satisfied. Times are difficult for restaurants. They are trying hard. I hope...

Great lunch place near Five Forks on Woodruff Rd!

Located in the Publix shopping center on Woodruff rd, you’d definitely miss it just driving by. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming for our first time stopping in. The concept is great, although ordering at the register was a bit intimidating as the menu is large considering the poke bowl, sushi, ramen, and hibachi sections. We grabbed some of their to go menus and sat at a booth to decide what to order.

We ended up both wanting to try the hibachi but added a sushi roll as well to get a better idea of what kind of sushi they offered.

The spicy tuna was a tuna crunch roll which I wasn’t expecting but my husband loves that so it was a pleasant surprise for him. The hibachi was decent. My husband really enjoyed the flavor of the chicken and shrimp which were cooked really well. He skipped the rice and got extra veggies. This part was a bit off as the veggies themselves varied from very cooked to only slightly cooked, between us both there were 3 pieces of broccoli. Overall we had a great quick lunch not to far from home. I’m looking forward to trying the poke bowl and different ramens next...
