Hiro 88 | South Lincoln

On Sunday night, my wife and I chose to go to Hiro 88, we were just visiting from out of town and after receiving multiple good reviews about the restaurant we had agreed it would be a nice spot to give a try. When we first arrived the atmosphere seemed a little busy the two young ladies at the front didnt seem to acknowledge us and it appeared that their conversation was more important than the guest. That immediately gave us a bad impression but we were still willing to give it a shot. The one hostess with her hair down helped get us seated but as she took us to our table, her demeanor was uninviting and gave the impression that we were an inconvenience. When we were greeted by our server they were extremely friendly and polite. We had noticed we were missing a menu so we did have to ask for that. The food was amazing and the service provided by our server was much better than when we first arrived. I would probably not visit again or recommend to many other people for the sole fact that I believe first impressions are very important and ours was unfortunately less than positive.

We had a nice experience at Hiro 88 and were lucky to make it in before happy hour ended. As being a new place to us the number of menus was overwhelming, there was 3 and we passed on the drink menu. First time here we played it safe. Cali roll, a sweet chili something roll, and chicken, lettuce wraps. The appetizer crab Rangoon came out and we both liked it a lot. Chicken lettuce wraps arrived shortly after the appetizer. A lot was going on in those chicken lettuce wraps and they were very good lots of small diced vegetables, chicken, and noodles. We enjoyed both of the sushi rolls. They were well constructed and held up. The ingredients were fresh and we were impressed. I know next time I can order some complex rolls. Hailey was our server and did a great job stopping at the tables at the right times and not too much.

Went here with my girlfriend for an anniversary dinner. We had sushi and crab Rangoon and miso soup. It was delicious! It was a Monday and they weren’t crowded at all. The service was fast and the happy hour pricing was great!

I keep trying this place in the hope that it gets better but sadly, it does not. Today we did take out for lunch. My entire order was there so points for that. The sushi was fine, no issues but you can find better in town. My bigger issue was with the lack of flavor in the entree. The noodles and chicken just had pale look but I hoped it would taste good but nope. With that I give up 🤷🏻‍♀️

Food was great but the server was especially awesome. Kevin was very polite. As a woman eating alone, he made me feel comfortable and safe. Every time I come here he gives great service. Will definitely be back.

I love Hiro 88 in Omaha so stopped by this one while I was in town. I was hungry and a little concerned if I would get enough to eat with the Bento Box for lunch so I ordered the 3 instead of the 2. Turns out, the two probably would have done and the 3 was plenty. The salad was sweet and delicious. The 3 items I got for the box were Tempura, Spicy California, and Sweet Chili Crab. The sushi was labeled as spicy but I did not it particularly spicy. That was easily remedied with wasabi so I had no complaints as the flavor profile was excellent. Overall, a clean and well-kept place with excellent service and delicious food - I definitely recommend!

I come to this location often however I won't be coming back. I called to ask if we could still come in for reverse happy hour 40 minutes prior to closing and they said yes. When we got there, me and 3 of my girlfriends, a couple was ordering and got seated. After the waitress came back and took our order and they did not seat us. Instead had us wait standing, then gave us our drinks to go. I asked if we could be seated they told us they made our order to go because they were almost closing AFTER I had already paid with a 20% tip. The audacity. Horrible customer service. Never coming back. I paid over $60 and gave a generous tip just to be told they made our order to go.
