" I had an unfortunate experience during my last visit. Although the food was fresh, I received the wrong order and it took a long time for someone to fix it. The people were friendly enough, but it just felt hectic and unorganized. I expect better service especially when I'm investing in my meal. I do appreciate their dedication to authentic dishes, though, and hope to give them another try sometime. " (*Curated Review*)

" Onkei has a great variety of sushi options but don't underestimate their bento boxes! They're packed with flavorful options and provide a great experience overall. The service was a bit shaky, but the food made it worth a visit. I would recommend trying their teriyaki chicken as it was cooked to perfection. I'll be going back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Onkei during a busy lunch hour. It was a bit chaotic, which I anticipated, but the wait was worth it. The sushi was great – fresh and fulfilling! The staff was jovial, really kind. I had the chicken teriyaki bento and found the portion to be a great value. Can't wait to go back after work one day! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had a rather mediocre experience at Onkei. The food was not as delicious as I anticipated, and the wait for food felt longer than necessary. The environment was pleasant, but the overall execution did not meet my expectations. I might try them during off-peak hours next time and see if things improve. " (*Curated Review*)

" I didn't enjoy my experience here as much as I had anticipated. The sushi rolls were average at best and the service was noticeably slow during the lunch rush. I understand it gets busy, but for the price, I expected more. The place itself has a nice setup, and the atmosphere could be very inviting, but the quality didn't live up to my expectations this time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Growing up with Japanese cuisine, it’s hard to find a good restaurant but Onkei really delivers. The sushi was expertly crafted, and the flavors authentic! The portion sizes were excellent for the price. My only note is the service could be quicker during busy hours. Nonetheless, this place has made a loyalty member out of me! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant is my new favorite place for sushi. The overall presentation of the food is beautiful, and they are truly committed to providing authentic flavors. I've had unagi nigiri that melted in my mouth and expertly crafted rolls. The associates took time to ensure I was satisfied with my choices. It's a little gem in Western Market!
