We’ve been here a number of times. The service is great, our waitress is always very friendly. The sushi and appetizers are excellent as well. Everything is cooked perfectly. The only thing I feel is lacking is the seasoning for the entrees – the pad Thai, ramen, and the like are a bit flavorless. I ordered medium spicy pad Thai and it was mild at best.

Oh my gosh we LOVED this place. My wife and I tried this place for the first time yesterday, and we were completely blown away by how great it was! The spring rolls were awesome. My wife loves sushi but she got a noodle bowl instead and she was in heaven. The amount of food they give you for the price is unreal. We are still eating on the leftovers. Note: the food tastes even better the next day.

Wanted to try something new and different in Gainesville, this is the place. Incredible menu with Vietnamese, Thai, and Sushi. Everything we ordered was delicious. Huge selection of Glutenfree and Vegan options. They even offer a good selection of drinks to include fruit flavored Sakes. Service was little slow, but they stay busy.

Food was okay, honestly the service is what gave the experience. Our waiters 1st night was tonight and he was super attentive, if we needed anything and he didn’t know he found out. I’ve had better fried rice but the place is nice, clean, and staff was friendly.

Really great food, a nice atmosphere, and good service. I had the drunken noodles and it’s really good. It has juuuuuuust the right amount of heat for someone who does not enjoy spicy food. Only downside is that the beef protein is a little extra (chicken and pork are their standard proteins) but other than that I quite enjoyed Taste.

We were a party of three and the restaurant was mostly empty that should’ve been a hint. It seems like they were tremendously busy doing takeout orders and rolling silverware. The waitress in the service was horrendous that was probably what got us the most upset. We started with two appetizers that were brought to the table the crab Rangoon and the grilled beef rib She set the appetizers in the middle of the table provided no place to put anything on and we ate with our hands. She never refilled our drinks unless we flagged her down also even when she would finally bring a drink over she just kept refilling the same cup which means she was taking the cups were drinking from and pushing them against the soda fountain that she’s going to then place other peoples glasses against she didn’t clear a dirty dish unless she was asked even though there were three tables she was waiting on. I then told her our party of three was going to order some rolls to share and that we wanted to eat them before we ordered our main courses but she asked us to at least give our main course order to her and I said OK. The two appetizers were not bad tasting in all honesty but having to eat with our fingers and not having little plates to set our food on was subpar service at the least. As we’re waiting for our sushi rolls all of a sudden my daughter’s main dish comes out and she explains the waitress explains that sushi is taking a long time and I said well we really did want to eat cold food before we got the hot food. Do not order anything from the grilled section it was literally the most over cooked chicken that had zero seasoning of any kind. I asked what was in the side of vegetables and she had to explain to me that it was a sauté of broccoli onions bean sprouts so I added that it came out it was clearly barely cooked in a microwave it had zero salt edge zero seasoning zero any flavor whatsoever and then a big bowl of rice with zero flavor I literally ate nothing the average was about $35 per person and it was disgusting unfortunately the restaurant we wanted to go to was closed for the holidays so we ended up here in desperation do not be desperate look at this plate of uncooked vegetables that was their vegetable sauté . Yum Yum sauce taste like sweet poppyseed dressing. And the sushi rolls were doused in spicy mayo an extraordinary amount. This is a horrible horrible place to come do you not bother to come here there are plenty in the plaza that have better reviews it was not a pleasant atmosphere the waitress needs to be retrained. If you are too busy to take appropriate care of your customers maybe you should shut off your UberEats app and start focusing on the people that are sitting inside your restaurant do not waste your money and do not waste your time ruining your evening when you’re trying to take your family out to have a nice dinner yeah go somewhere else

My husband and I love the food here however after tonight we wont be back, after walking in and being told to seat ourselves. We asked if outside was ok and were told it was fine. 20 minutes later they then served 3 other guests (who also sat outside who came in after we did before us) we won’t be back!
