" Bar Ronin is one of those places that surprises you with how good it is! I enjoyed trying a variety of dishes that blended flavors beautifully. We shared the crispy chicken and ginger-pork gyoza—they were phenomenal! The drinks complemented our meal perfectly; I recommend the Lonely Rōnin cocktail! The only complaint was that the portions were a tad smaller than I’m used to for main dishes, but I’ll take taste over size any day. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic place! As someone who loves Asian cuisine, I was overjoyed to find a restaurant that merges different flavors so well. I had the ramen, which was unexpectedly filled with flavor and aroma. The attentive staff made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Plus, the ambiance is perfect for a night out or a casual dinner. I can’t wait to try more dishes from the menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Bar Ronin is vibrant and delightful! What surprised me the most were the unique flavors throughout each dish. We had the whitefish sashimi and short rib ramen; both surprised and delighted our taste buds. The open kitchen concept added to the whole experience too! A bit pricey, but worth it for such a unique dining experience in Erie. I can't wait to return and try more! " (*Curated Review*)

" I stopped by Bar Ronin for happy hour and was blown away by the vibrant menu! The cocktails are worth trying, especially the Empress Rickey, which was a fun twist! The small plates were well-prepared and full of flavor. Only drawback? Some items are a bit overpriced for the portion. Still a trendy spot that's a must-visit for anyone in Erie! " (*Curated Review*)

" A mixed experience at Bar Ronin for sure. The ambiance is modern, and it really stands out in Erie. However, I didn't find the food lived up to the hype. My sushi was average, and the service was a touch slow. I liked the creativity in the drinks, but not enough to overlook the shortcomings in the food. I’m on the fence about returning.

" First time here and I was impressed with the unique menu options, but some dishes felt a bit off. The decor was trendy, which I loved, yet I could barely hear my friends talking over the loud music. I had the short rib, and it was tender but not seasoned well enough. The service was pleasant, but I found the small plates not worth their prices. I’m undecided on whether I’d come back. " (*Curated Review*)

" Don’t overlook Bar Ronin! I randomly chose this place while visiting Erie, and it blew my expectations out of the water. The combination of Latin flavors with Japanese staples created dishes that were not only different but also downright delectable. We sampled a variety, including the thick-cut fried buns—so good! The service was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere is perfect for a group of friends or a special date night. " (*Curated Review*)
