" Onkei has become a favorite of mine in the city! Whether I’m dining in or ordering takeout, the quality of their sushi is consistent. The value is fantastic given the freshness of the fish. One of the standout dishes is their bento box – plenty of food for a reasonable price! Great selection and very good flavors. I always look forward to my next visit here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally decided to try Onkei after hearing so many positive things, and I must say, I was not disappointed! My partner and I shared a variety of rolls and the sashimi platter. Everything tasted wonderfully fresh, and the presentation was on point. I particularly enjoyed the spicy tuna roll. However, I felt like the service could have been a bit more attentive. We had to wait a while for our drinks. Still, the food made up for that, and I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" The best sushi I have ever had! They have a great selection and their ramen is top-notch. I was particularly impressed with how fresh the fish was, and even the rice was perfectly seasoned. I can't recommend this place enough! The atmosphere is lively and the service is attentive. Coming back soon! " (*Curated Review*)

" Average experience overall. I found my sushi to be overly simplistic and wasn't very impressed. The service was friendly but the wait for food was longer than anticipated. The atmosphere was appealing, giving a casual vibe. I believe I'll revisit and hope for a better experience next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" The sushi at Onkei is genuinely one of the best I've had in the area! The quality of the fish was phenomenal and tasted incredibly fresh. I loved the friendly vibe of the staff, especially the sushi chef, who took the time to ask about our preferences. The atmosphere is cozy, perfect for a laid-back lunch. Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone craving authentic sushi! " (*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!
