It’s hard to find a good Japanese restaurant in the Brentwood mall area. I knew I was making a mistake by going to Miki Sushi for ramen. Never order ramen from a place that doesn’t specialize in ramen!

Anyways, I ordered the Vegetable Ramen $6.95 – and yes, it had lots of veggies. But they weren’t all fresh ones.  Some veggies were those cheap frozen veggies of chopped up greens, green peas, carrots and corn you can buy in bulk in the frozen department of most supermarkets.

It was really greasy/oily and had no flavour at all. I wasn’t expecting much, but this was so far from any ‘average’ ramen you can find in Japan. You’d probably be out of business. In fact, for about the same price, you can get really decent ramen in Japan…this one was just terrible. Will never order this ever again!Vegetable Ramen $6.95

I have eaten other dishes of their menu before. But the gyoza is equally greasy and done in the Chinese way. The bento – which they have a wide selection of is a good deal, but not the yummiest. Miso is blah…salad is ok, side dish of orange and broccoli?! rolls are meh…gyoza is greasy (oh, did I already mention that? lol), the udon is terrible. This is definitely not my first choice of Japanese restaurant to go to. However, perhaps because it is at a good location and is the only sushi restaurant (other than Sushi Garden), it’s always full during lunch hours.

Good deal for bento $7.95

Service is alright, and the food comes promptly. But isn’t on the list for ‘good Japanese restaurants’.
