Kumo Asian Fusion In Cincinnati Delhi Township

I would not recommend this restaurant to anyone. The exterior is quite unappealing, and the dining area is outdated and has an unpleasant odor. My son and I tried two sushi rolls each, and they had no flavor whatsoever. The wasabi was not spicy at all, and its color looked off. An hour after our meal, both my son and I ended up feeling sick, with nausea and severe stomach pains. Service: Dine-in.

AC was broken or not working well, it smelled weird and wasn't very clean. The sushi was too warm, but the teriyaki chicken the service was good, but overall just not a good experience. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $10–20 Food: 2 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 2 Recommended dishes: Teriyaki Chicken

So I had high hopes and was excited to dine at Kumo, strongly recommended by a friend. However. Outside of the genuine family owned restaurant feel that I liked a lot I was not impressed at all. (I am laid back and have worked in the industry so I am kindly understanding etc it takes a lot to make me have a bad experience). To begin, in a pretty much empty restaurant they sat us near a back corner next to a large loud floor fan that was running on high right next to our table. There was one other table of two persons in the restaurant so they were not busy. 2, 2 tops My sushi rolls were supposed to be fresh, cold, rolls. They were well below room temp warm and falling apart. Portion of wasabi was tiny, portion of ginger small but well. It was there. My partner ordered Pad Thai. This was the most unfortunate discovery here. Tragic there was absolutely no trace of that flavor that Pad Thai is known and loved for the peanut flavor peanut oil and tamarind and you can use peanut butter if you don’t have tamarid if needed. There was a side of chopped dry peanuts served with this dish which tasted of a brown gravy low mein noodles. Also to note the highest spice level was asked for when ordered and it was discussed that yes the highest spice level please for this dish. There was no spicy flavor. None. I tasted it I don’t enjoy spicy hot and I know how to cook. It tasted like a sweet brown gravy sauce over the noodles. No spice at all. It would have been nice to bring at least the concerns with the Pad Thai which was a total miss to our server my sushi well I didn’t want to add that complaint to the list so I crossed that off the “server discussion” list. I thought they made a different dish accidentally never had the opportunity to try to correct it. The server only returned well after the meal was complete and we only ate forward as there was no sign that she would come check to see if we liked our food. So kind hearted we are we just ate the meals. 25 minutes went by. Wondering what in the world happened with two simple meals. We were one of 2 tables there 2 tables with 2 people at each so they were not busy. When our server finally came back to take our dishes I decided to politely ask what had gone wrong with the order. I did explain the “perhaps incorrect meal served” with the Pad Thai experience. She explained that people whom come there do not like that peanut tamarind flavor so they do not make it like Pad Thai (although it’s called Pad Thai on the menu) they make it different. I didn’t mention my sad sushi rolls and made note to simply get my next sushi craving from Delhi Kroger. Not here. So. I scratch my head and just wonder. Many thoughts on this. I’ve had Pad Thai like 1000 times. It tastes like Pad Thai. If you don’t like the taste you order something else. And you don’t make pad Thai NOT TASTE LIKE PAD THAI. And if it comes to this please note to customers that when you order pad Thai it’s not going to be pad Thai FYI. ? I’m dumbfounded. Recco sweet brown sauce lo mein??? Geesh. Disappointed. So sorry just not going back. I wish them well and hope they have continued successes. I won’t be a participant in them.

Dining room clean, bathroom clean, plenty of parking, only one other table present during lunch on Labor Day. Staff was quick and friendly. We (party of 2) order a spring roll, chicken egg roll, hibachi rice, and the sweet and sour chicken )with sauce on side) dinner. Dinner came with rice and salad. The egg roll and spring roll was delicious and unique. It was served hot and crispy. The hibachi rice was full of vegetables, eggs, flavor and tasted good. The sweet and sour chicken dinner meal was enough for 2. I wish the chicken was seasoned enough to stand on its on without the sauce. We paid less than $30 for the above mentioned food(we ordered water to drink) and left full!!! We both look forward to going back!

The sushi was excellent. Service was quick as well. Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 3
