This place wasnt good. I would not go back. It was bad service, bad atmosphere and mixed food review. One plate I got was the venus was great but the other waa the Tiger roll, I mean how embarrasing, no pride in your food whatsoever. The avacado was actually brown and black just bad. The waitress was so rude. They have no lemonade, no kid friendly. Just noo. Miso was ok. Total paid was $46, not worth it.

I miss Mario’s actual cooking. The shrimp in my dish were cut in half, and the noodles were REALLY overcooked and mushy. The chef at the Harless location in Odessa, needs to step up his game. I believe Mario wouldn’t want this low quality cooked food served to his customers, the ingredients are good, it’s the cooking methods that are WAY off. Its his good name, and his impeccable reputation that bought us back. So I was greatly disappointed when I was served this meal. My friends also were disappointed in the cooking technique of the noodles, the beef dish was good with only the actual beef being great tasting. The chicken was a bit dry as well as the fried rice, according to my friend. We as a group have vowed to go to the Crane location to actually see Mario. So my shrimp dish, even the leftovers was a definite NO for me. So sorry Mario, you spoiled us when you lived here in Odessa.

The food was great, I had the Japanese rice ball, egg rolls, and the crab puffs were to die for. Will definitely be coming back to try the whole menu. Highly recommend!!

I ordered door dash and they had my dasher wait a whole hour and gave them my food when they closed. I ordered at 8 and food wasn’t received to my dasher until 9. WHEN THEY CLOSE. So my dasher brings it and I ordered two chicken fried rice and appetizer egg rolls and they only give me 2 eggrolls and they gave me noodles instead. The noodles were over cooked and soft and on top of that there was a HAIR! A long nasty hair!!!! I threw both of them in the trash and didn’t even eat it. And I couldn’t even call them because they were closed.

My whole hearted opinion, it definitely is expensive. The rolls are unreasonably priced, they are good but not 12 dollars for quarter sized rolls.
The fried rice is pretty bland.
The egg rolls are actually jumbo spring rolls. My kids have loved noodles from every place we’ve been to all throughout the basin but here.
The noodles here are very slimy, not greasy but slimy.
Also the canned soda is overpriced.
Over all, their staff is wonderful and the company and attentiveness was on point.
They comped my lady’s noodles but I’m not gonna lie, i questioned how expensive it would have been if they would have not comped it because my bill was still well over $60+.
The guy who served us is definitely why the place gets the third star, without him, i would have given a 2 or maybe lower.
The guy is very kind and my children liked him enough to approach him and give him his tip.

Normally, I wouldn’t be like this, but these are some pitiful jalapeno poppers (“Japanese Bullets”) and they cost $9. That’s one half of a jalapeno and what looks like the other half cut into three pieces. So one total jalapeno. Ridiculous rip-off. No, they’re not so great that it warrants the high price. Do yourself a favor and get the sushi from HEB down the road.
Edit: The chicken fried rice had shrimp in it. This is UNACCEPTABLE. Imagine having a food allergy and you get this.
I’ve never been so furious at a restaurant’s inept chefs.

Mario cooked for my kids and I at Osaka’s almost 10 years ago. I was so happy to discover his place today. Even better food than he made there. They should have let him run it. Simply amazing! Try the “Mario” roll!
