Tried out Hungry Belly for the first time! The exterior is still being remodeled, but don't let that deter you. We were seated quickly, and the dog-friendly patio was a huge plus since I take my pup everywhere. The food was fantastic--we ordered a variety of dishes, and everything was delicious. It's a bit of a drive from Fort Worth, but definitely worth it. Came to celebrate my friend's birthday, and the staff was wonderful. Great ambiance, great experience!
Always amazing food and service. The sushi coming out on the boat was so cute. Went for my friend's birthday so got the medium boat as a special treat. Everything was delicious. Along with the sushi and sashimi the two rolls were the dragon fly roll and the tuna tower. Was the perfect amount of food for two people.
Amazing every time I come came for my BDay and had the medium boat so worth it and it's perfect for two.
We were in Dallas over Christmas break and I'm always looking for some good Asian eats. The first night, I was looking for some noodle soup on Christmas night for my toddler who was sick. I found some udon noodle soup and decided to order via UberEats, along with the Pork Tonkotsu Ramen and some pieces of sushi. What came was surprisingly delicious!! The udon noodle soup had a nice umami broth. The normal one, with no meat addition came with tempura crumbs and seaweed. Toddler devoured it; which was nice cause he hadn't had much of an appetite for anything. Ramen was a very decent portion and the sushi was fresh and delicious! We liked it so much we came by 2 days later for lunch before making the drive back home. There is a front lot that looks pretty packed but also a side lot with plenty of spaces! The restaurant was small and cozy. Service was tentative, yet not overbearing! -Agadashi Tofu: not what I was expecting at all! It was large triangles of fried tofu with a thicker sweet sauce, not like the tradition broth you pour over the tofu with the bonito flakes. Tofu was crispy and flavor was nice. I surprisingly enjoyed this dish. -Belly Fries: large sizzling platter came out with cheese melted over fries and bulgogi. We got the spicy mayo on the side so our toddler can eat them. Was good but on the dry side cause maybe of the mayo. -Soonduboo: I always love a good spicy seafood Korean tofu soup. This one came with the Korean sides and rice. It wasn't boiling hot like other places but came loaded with tofu, calamari rings, shrimp, and small scallops. Good flavors, though not as strong as I would like, and because it was loaded with things, it wasn't as brothy, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. -Sushi: we had an assortment of king and Scottish salmon, escolar, Otoro, tobiko, and unagi. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. Fiance said the sushi was the star of the show this meal. I thought the unagi was a bit overcooked. Everything else was good, salmon and tobiko stood out the most. Good serviced great ambiance and a good meal for the large variety of dishes they offer!
The food was delicious! A group of my friends and I went and enjoyed everything we had. Service was great, especially since one of the employees was a sorority sister. The inside was a bit small but there is outdoor seating available. Parking lot is small as well so be prepared to navigate. If you drive a very large vehicle, it may be difficult. I will definitely be back when I'm in Dallas again!
Ordered through door dash, but everything I ordered came correctly + napkins and silverware so service is great; just can't speak to the inside space/vibes. Got a few different rolls and all were reasonably priced. Started with edamame, standard, good crunch, lightly salted. Also had the shrimp gyoza, solid flavor and a nice dipping sauce on the side. Got a spicy tuna roll, eel roll, dragon roll and rainbow roll. Star of the show was the eel and dragon roll, others were fairly mid with less flavor.
Not my first time here - but this time we tried NEW things. The restaurant has a tiny parking lot (it's tight!) and small inside seating area - but they seem to be popular for TO GO and PICKUP orders. Started with some Happy Hour items... $4 cold sake And then the Spam Masubi, which I think was super salty...but tasty. I can only eat one piece though. Had the Pork Bento Box and EVERYTHING inside this dish is great. You get a LOT of food for your money here. We didn't do dessert, but had good conversation and food. The service was good. Plenty of refills on our drinks, too.
Really good Korean and Japanese food. I was impressed by their assortment of kimbap - and ordered the spicy tuna mayo one. Also got a spicy tonkatsu ramen, fried shumai appetizer and also their shishito peppers. Nice beverage selection and got a Ramune plus a Perrier. Service was very attentive and prompt, and the ambience is very cozy / intimate Gastropub-like. Recommended!
Came with a friend for dinner and thoroughly enjoyed the food! The parking can be a little tricky but we were able to secure a spot. The restaurant wasn't that big on the inside and we were seated at a two top booth style. The customer service was consistent throughout the evening. We started the evening with various appetizers of edamame, chicken egg rolls, krab rangoon, and beef gyoza. We enjoyed these items and they were a good start to our meal. I did take advantage of the happy hour and ordered two glasses of wine as well as their flavored sake (hot, mango) to enjoy later. I ordered the sushi sampler (tuna, salmon, yellowtail, and snapper) and the fish was tasty and fresh. Additionally, I ordered the sesame chicken bento box which comes with rice, salad, half of California roll, and beef gyoza. I did enjoy this box as you're presented with various items but the sesame chicken could've came out a hotter (temperature). My friend ordered a speciality sushi roll and she did say she enjoyed it. Overall, we had a good time and I do expect to return for other items and drinks!
