After messing up our dinner plans, we needed to get food quick. Jin 28 had our order ready in 15 minutes. We ordered Vietnamese Style Noodle with Seafood (Pho) and Pad Thai with shrimp (large) (an extra $1 for shrimp). Two egg rolls were free with a coupon from their mailed menu flyer. The egg rolls (vegetarian) tasted good but were a bit scrawny. We were surprised that the Vietnamese Style Noodle with Seafood was soup (it doesn't say so on the menu, and we were Pho ignorant), but my wife enjoyed it. My Pad Thai had lots of tasty shrimp, but the noodles all stuck together (overcooked?) and the crushed nut topping was isolated to one side of the rectangular carton. Our regular Chinese carry-out has better prices, but the free egg rolls made up for the difference. We'll probably use them again.

We went here for lunch and it was good but I do not think worth $90. We had one appetizer, two rolls, and a shrimp burger and fries. The rolls were good but nothing spectacular. The appetizer was ahi wrapped in filo, it probably was the best tasting of our lunch. The shrimp burger should be removed from their menu and it really just seemed like a frozen shrimp patty with lots of breading, deep fried. I would never or it again. The waitress was of zero help, her response to questions was get what you want. If she could or would have described the food the shrimp patty would NOT have been ordered. The place itself is very modern and clean, the service was average at best. Probably will not return. Thank you for your feedback; it only helps us get better. We hope to see you soon at Shakou. #ExperienceShakou

We love going to Tsukasa because, honestly we never have had a bad experience. For more than 25 years, we have celebrated our daughter's birthday in the main dining room and have enjoyed the food and the presentation. Recently, my husband and I decided to try the small dining room by the bar. Sunday's they open at 4 p.m and it was perfect for a quaint dinner for two in one of their comfortable booths. We enjoyed the same delicious food as we have always had and the service was wonderful. When I read reviews about Tsukasa being a bit "pricey" I compare their prices to other restaurants we frequent and I do believe they are comparable in price but excel in value. I had a hibachi chicken dish and my husband had the hibachi scallops. Both dishes were delicious but the Tempura Calamari we shared was exquisite. The price was less than in the main dining hall just because there was no elaborate presentation of cooking the food, yet the food was still outstanding. Tsukasa is at the top of my list of places to visit on any occasion. Like we said, "Why wait for a birthday?"

...even if we do carryout. We started the meal with miso soup, always yummy. Her favorite is Bento Box A, including tempuras of shrimp and vegetable, chicken teriyaki, salmon teriyaki, white rice, an additional side of tuna, salmon, cooked shrimp sushi, and 3pcs of California roll. When I spread it out on our kitchen table, it looked like a feast. A great place to treat yourself, even if you eat at home or it isn't a special occasion.

This is the best restaurant between Chicago and Milwaukee. Weâve been guests monthly for almost 10 years. Have tried just about everything on the menu ... never disappointed. The NOLA items are a treat (if you want to experiment, just try the Shot of Gumbo). Seasonally have Soft Shell Crabs, try them tempura style. Shrimp and Grits best Iâve had outside South Carolina. The tuna, either as appetizer or entree, is fresh and satisfying. Iâve had the steak, but Iâm not particularly a steak guy, so didnât think it was as special as the other entrees Iâve had. Weâve visited as a couple, and as family group of a dozen ... service is always, consistently outstanding. BBQ and sandwiches are top notch. Not a beer guy, but there is a large selection of domestic and imported brews. You will not be disappointed.Thank you so much for all your kind words! We're so happy to hear you've enjoyed your experience with us time and time again! We look forward to the next time!

'have been enjoying exceptional Japanese cuisine here for years.The seafood is always first rate / sushi-grade and offered in numerous variations of preparations. 'have been fortunate to dine here often with Japanese friends and there is a 'Japanese' menu [in addition to their front of the house/official menu]. 'have tried the spectrum of their offerings and have yet to hit a missed note.Although their sake offerings are - somewhat, limited, they do have Sapporo Premium on draft and a full bar.Service can't be improved on, as they're most hospitable and genuinely care about how they're perceived.I can't recommend this establishment highly enough.They do luncheon specials that are of exceptionally good value; with their Bento-box luncheon offerings of beef, salmon or chicken teriyaki [either of which come with fried-rice, miso-soup, tempura shrimp and vegetables, as well as a choice of various rolls], for just $12.99 hard to pass up mid-day.Free/self-parking is available in the lot immediately out front of the restaurant and their menu is available on line/on their web-site [though not the highly variable, handwritten in Japanese menu; for that you'll have to ask when you're there].Japanese: "ä¹¾æ¯" (kanpai, lit. "Empty the glass", similar to "bottoms up" in English)
