" I had heard great things about Tempura House, but my experience did not live up to the hype. The food was average and the wait time was longer than expected. I probably won't return unless with friends who are keen on trying it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just okay. The food was good but it didn't have that special homemade touch I was expecting. Also, being a takeout-only spot meant it lacked a certain dining ambiance. I can see why it's popular, but it wasn't my favorite. " (*Curated Review*)

" Service could use some improvement, as our server seemed rushed and disinterested, but the food was reasonably priced. I had the Donburi, which was filling but lacked a bit of flavor. It wasn’t the worst experience, but not the best either. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tempura House is a hidden treasure! The atmosphere may be modest, but the food speaks volumes. I had the Chicken Karaage and loved how crispy and flavorful it was. The owners were very welcoming, making the whole experience feel like home. I'll definitely come back for their tempura special on Mondays! " (*Curated Review*)

" After hearing about Tempura House from friends, I finally decided to stop by. I had high expectations, but unfortunately, they weren’t met. The food was pretty average; I ordered a bento box and the portions felt small for the price. Probably won't return unless I hear better things about their specials. " (*Curated Review*)

" The food is usually great, but I had an off day where the Katsu was overcooked and dry. Still, other dishes like the Curry are usually spot on. I love this little joint and will keep coming back for their specials! " (*Curated Review*)

" Pleasantly surprised by the quality of food at Tempura House! The tempura was light and crispy, and the flavors were spot on. The service was quick and efficient. I’ll definitely make this a regular spot for lunch! " (*Curated Review*)
