Haiku Japanese Bistro 754 North Plaza Drive, Mendota Heights, MN 55120

"A delightful restaurant with friendly staff and a beautiful atmosphere. The sushi was all surprisingly fresh. The aesthetic of all the food was amazing, and it tasted delicious. The chicken katsu was breaded and fried to perfection. The tuna dumplings are fun, and a great options if you want to load up on the fish. They have a great selection of appetizers, sushi, rolls, poke bowls, and other dishes."

"Haiku Japanese Bistro has a delicious menu and wonderful atmosphere that make it worth visiting a second time. The sushi menu and the kitchen menu are both worth looking through. Each plate we ordered came with a stylized touch. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in Mendoza Heights."

"Everything about Haiku is great. The prices are reasonable, you can always count on quality sushi, and the service is hard to beat. Highly recommend, 5 stars every time we visit!"

"Food: 1/3 stars Sunomono had a strong fishy taste like it was old and the salad below was not dressed. Felt like eating plain greens with old fish on top. It looked great though. Hibachi Chicken didn’t have any sear from the griddle and was sauced. It felt like I was eating chicken and vegetables in garlic sauce at a Chinese restaurant. The sauce made it quite a bit more salty so the use of the yum yum sauce was moot. The two pieces of shrimp that comes with it was over cooked. Asian Tiger Roll and Eel Cucumber roll were pretty average. Felt like the fish could be fresher. Service: 1/1 The hostess/server was very nice and attentive. She even made the kids beverage super fun! Decoration/atmosphere: 1/1 Place was very clean and looked nice. Serving plates were clean and sushi came on a heart shaped plate. Overall: the place is pretty average without anything standing out. Food is fine, not great."
