Service was excellent, staff are friendly and kind. Food was amazing! Everything was fresh and looked appetizing. Now I want to try everything on the menu! I’ll definitely be back. Atmosphere is a 4/5 just because it’s in the mall.

This was my first time trying them since they re-opened. I was excited to see that they had deep fried wontons. They were awful. They were over cooked and we almost empty. It was like eating stale over cooked wrappers.

My favorite restaurant in town. The first time I was here I ordered Teriyaki Beef on noodles, with sides of California rolls, mixed veggies and takoyaki (all in a Bento box), the second time I had Pork Katsu on Udon, with dumplings, yam tempura and takoyaki (also all as a Bento box). Both times, food was cheap (just under $14) and delicious.

Nori *WAS* the best ramen in Lethbridge. We always come here to eat their Tonkotsu Ramen. It was really good! UNTIL recently they were closed for a while and it seems like they did a bit of redesigning with menus and stuff but I can't believe they changed the way they cooked it as well. The tonkotsu ramen wasn't as good as before, the pork are thinner and not as tender and the soup isn't as flavourful. I mean, it's still okay but I miss the old flavour of their ramen. I don't underdtand why they had to change the recipe when it's already perfect. Unfortunately, it's not the best ramen anymore, we're quite disappointed. Not sure about the other meals as we only get tonkotsu ramen.

I ordered Pork Tonkatsu for lunch. I liked how they prepped the pork but the accompanying rice was saggy. The veggies also looked liked they were stored in the freezer for ages - it also tasted very bland. If I come to Park Place mall again, I will skip this place.

I'm so happy we still have a place to get a good bento at the mall! The food was prepared very quickly and it all tasted great. I had the beef bento and I honestly think their California rolls taste better than edo. It had rice, green salad, the rolls and yam tempura. I wish the salad had a carrot ginger dressing instead of the sesame but it was still tasty. The service was very polite and quick. Edit: 2023 The soups are good but they have corn in them which I do not like at all.

Forgot to take a picture. I ordered a build-your-own with rice, karaage (fried chicken pieces), 3 dumplings, 3 takoyaki (fried dough balls with a bit of octopus inside), and mixed veggies. The order did not take too much time. The veggies came with a bit of sauce. There was an option to get some spicy sauce on the chicken which I did. The chicken was wonderful. It was my first time with takoyaki so I cant compare but it was good, just make sure to wait for it to cool because the inside is runny and hot. This cost just over $13 before tip, I tipped it up to $15. Most other places like this would cost about $18 for a similar meal. I dont expect prices will stay like this forever so enjoy it while you can.

Tempura shrimp over cooked and extremely oily. Super salty soup and gummy noodles. Food

Got the pork katsu Bento box, and it was really disappointing. The tempura was cold and greasy. It was definitely not fresh. The rice was tasteless and soggy. Sushi also was a bit bland. Pork was okay, but definitely not worth the price. I wouldnt go here again.

Staff being on their phone while in view of customers and then not washing hands before handling someones food is so not okay.. as well as staff not properly restraining their hair while on the service line or near the food they are serving customers.

I do not recommend the Laksa on this places menu - $13 for a bowl filled 98% with noodles and a sprinkle of seafood on the top. In addition no warnings on the menu about spiciness and I nearly choked on it it was so spicy. Stomach turning from the Laksa and when I brought the food back to the counter was told I have to speak to the manager but the manager is not here. Will never eat there again. Wife also feeling stomach turning from the food.

I dont think the food is bad even from a Japanese perspective, but the trays that come with the food are sometimes terrible. Sometimes the back side is sticky with oil, which is pretty bad. Well, its just a matter of trying your luck and having fun!

Probably the best Ramen and Udon I have ever eaten in Lethbridge. It is absolutely delicious. The takoyaki is tremendous. If I could rate it higher then 5 stars I would. Highly recommend.

I recently ordered from Skip The Dishes and I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed with the quality of the food. The pork katsu that I ordered was cooked to perfection, with a crispy exterior and a tender, flavorful interior. The rice was also fresh and cooked perfectly, and the sushi rolls were some of the best Ive had. Overall, I was extremely satisfied with my experience!!
