Inaka Japanese Restaurant

The place was empty for lunch service on a weekend. We waited for 5 minutes to be seated because there were no hosts or waiters. The decor is outdated and the menu was falling apart. We didn't get served water for 10 minutes in an empty restaurant. The price was more expensive than the best Korean places in Boston. For a bibimbap it is 16 dollars. It has very little actual content in terms of veggies, meat. Egg was well done instead of runny in the middle.

As soon as you walk into the restaurant, there’s a stench and 90% of the lights are off. The “Korean cuisine” is mediocre at best and part of the Bibimbap was rotten, my family got stomach bugs afterwards. The server is rude and wouldn’t get us water. The prices are way overpriced for the awful quality. Please save your time and money and do not go here.

The sushi menu was small, but Inaka does their own twist on some classic rolls, and they were amazing! Staff was great, prices were reasonable. My only complaint is no liquor, so no specialty drinks! But will definitely go back

The food is excelente BUT, WHY IS THAT WOMAN SO UNFRIENDLY? I think she is the wife of the chef and co-owner? She is just nasty. We keep going because we love the food but she is so unfriendly. My husband and I normally take it to go so we don't have to deal with her. Every time, we have to stay there and eat. We are sorry because she is just not a people person. She is in the wrong business.

This is a lovely restaurant with DELICIOUS food. Don't let the strip mall locale fool you. Gosh, this place is a hidden gem! I work in the area, but live down in Boston, and boy, do I wish I had this place in the city! Lawrence is a lucky town to have them!

We have been coming here for years, one of the best places to eat around here. Really terrific food. Fresh sushi.

One of my favorite spots for a spicy and sizzling bowl of bibimbop! great sushi as well, Frendily and attentive staff that always provides you with top tier hospitality. Definitely give it a try.

$7 tempura roll was sloppily prepared and no other ingredients but shrimp. A saw seaweed fall from their container on to bar counter and they just put it back. Not good quality,sorry.

Used to love this place years ago when it was the only sushi in town. But now there's lots of competition and while I love their food, it's too expensive to frequent as our regular place.

Hidden Gem in Lawrence. If you don't like raw sushi you'll love place. Salmon skin sushi, and Keesha crunchy is our favorite. The beef bim bam is big enough for 2+.
