   The sushi and nigiri were below average but the chicken salad…looked as if it sat in a fridge for a few good hours and had very little dressing, if at all. Waiter did offer to replace but I had already seen the alternatives and was not impressed at all. We were going to share the salad but there was very little to share. Must say that they did offer to replace/add dressing but there was no point. It’s been a long time since I left a restaurant hungry.

   Happen to stop in for food during Happy Hour. Crowd was small but it was early. Tables are a bit worn and cleaning overall would be beneficial. Mocktails were seriously watered down and had no flavor so I was glad we were only paying the happy hour price. We ordered the chicken fried rice for two but serving size was small and better suited for one person eating off bread plates. The food was more room temperature than hot. Not a place we will eat again.

   If you're looking for a solid spot in Times Square that doesn't have a "Times Square" feel, look no further.

   The food was good but the waiter (Akira) and manager (Chris) are what put this place over and above. They have happy hour even on Fridays nights. The ra ra shrimp was on point.

   I am a frequent patron to this restaurant. I usually am to have a great time, with fabulous service and tasty food. This time I felt my service was a bit discriminatory. My waitress was a lot more attentive to other tables, while my table experience an extremely long wait time to put in any orders, and once she eventually did come it felt as though we were being rushed and like we were a bother to serve. It was truly disappointing. We chose to just pay for our beverages and leave instead of dining as we initially planned. This has never been my experience before at RA and I am hoping that it was just a one time thing.

   The service suck. We got there for happy hour, we arrived around 5:30 about 15 minutes earlier than my reservation and was seated right away but our server didn’t come till after 5:53 and that was after we alerted the manager that we been waiting over 15 minutes to be served so imagine if I didn’t say anything we would’ve missed out on happy hour. And then our server barely checked up on us I had to literally flag her down to get her to assist us. It was terrible experience. The food was good but the service just ruined our night.

    They were short staffed and took too long to get drinks and place order. Once order was placed, food came quickly and it all was delicious. They just need more servers.
