Reviews for Cilantro Thai & Sushi Restaurant in Akron, OH
It was not too busy when we went for lunch. Wait staff is helpful and happy. We scanned the qr code for the menu. I got the rice... noodle tender beef soup. So much food I could not finish and it was very tasty. Please DON'T let this discourage you. I feltsafe and secure while dinning... During my visit the windows were boarded up to protect them. Due to recent events, like muchof downtown businesses the hours have been adjusted. Please check the hours before you plan to visit. Thank you for a goodlunch experience. Read more
We ordered a few apps (corn cakes, ragoons and pork dumplings) of those the dumplings were my favorite BUT the ragoons had... actual seafood in it instead of cream cheese. The Thai tea was good. We split the Singapore noodles spice lvl2 the Akronite rolland ordered ramen with pork dumplings To-Go so we could split and try later that night. I will say the roll was NOT my favoritethe seaweed was super chewy/stringy compared to most places I?ve been. But the Singapore noodles were my favorite of any Thaiplace I?ve tried even with there being a lack of meat I ordered steak for mine and hardly found 3-4 pieces. The ramen might havebeen better if I?d gotten the dumplings I ordered for it but we didn?t nor did we get the extra egg we ordered and so it wasmainly noodles and broth with a single fish cake and not all that great. All in all it?s pricey with a couple great dishes. Asa side note our server was awesome had no issues with her. Read more
The food and drinks were amazing. We went out for my husbands birthday and I cannot be more satisfied. The curry and pad Thai... along with the garlic fried wings were our favorites. The crab fried rice was also very good and fresh. We usually order takeoutbut today we sat in and completely enjoyed ourselves. The restaurant has a great vibe and atmosphere. Read more
This was our first time here. We had just ridden 10 miles on it towpath trail in Cuyahoga Valley National Park on an 85° day... and we looked like it. We were just looking for a new Asian place to eat at and found this place. We had no idea what kind ofplace it was because we couldn't tell from the facade outside. I wish we didn't look the way we did, but it was what it was; wewere hungry and it smelled delicious. This is a very nice, chill, swanky place. We went on July 2nd of 2022, so not only was it4th of July weekend but there were are also protests going on downtown, so it wasn't very crowded at all. We sat at the bar. Thebartender was super nice and excellent at his job and at being attentive to us. We ordered pork gyoza, Singapore noodles, andchicken in garlic, along with three sushi rolls. Everything was delicious. Probably the most savory meal I had in a long time.My boyfriend also ordered a beer and I got an iced tea. It came $99 with tax, but this isn't a place we would go to all the timeand we were treating ourselves. We will definitely go back. It's also about a 50 minute drive from our house to get here, butthat's not going to deter me from eating there again. Read more
My son and daughter in law were visiting from Vermont and as we all love Asian cuisine we chose Cilantro based on the online... ratings and were not disappointed. Due to food allergies they eat pretty much a vegan diet and the options on the menu wereample and the staff was very accommodating with substitutions. They loved the vegetable sushi rolls. I have to admit howeverthat I was not impressed with the spicy tuna roll that I ordered. The fish did not taste fresh and there was entirely too muchspicy Mayo that dominated the flavor profile. Spring rolls were a bit dense but very tasty! Our entrees were also tasty andquite enjoyable with huge portion sizes! Read more
Top notch sushi, really good Thai food. Thoroughly enjoyed it, overall relaxing environment and good vibes. Prices are... reasonable, ate a three course meal with two rounds of drinks, plus sake for under $50. Left feeling stuffed and overall thequality of all the food is extraordinary! Nice staff, attentive overall I give the place a 9.5/10 rating. Will be back again totry the duck for sure, cannot wait! Updated Alright so I went back and a couple things. Did NOT enjoy the crab puffs, or thechicken spring rolls. Sorry ma, or pa, whoever is on the spring roll and crab puffs. Time for new recipes. The sushi isabsolutely delicious, I love the spicy rolls, and can't wait to try the duck and the Ramen but seriously 86 those currentrecipes, they were a let down compared to the quality of the other food. Wonton soup is a must have, great tasting and overallsuper enjoyable. Read more
Everything I've had at Cilantro has been terrific. I particularly enjoyed the massaman curry and eggplant basil. These are... dishes I've had at many places but Cilantro made them as well as I've ever had them. The sauces with the satay were alsoterrific. That's what has really stood out to me so far in my visits to Cilantro. I'm a sauce guy and their sauces are superb. Ialso really like the ambiance at Cilantro! Read more
Had a nice hostess and the waiter where great and have to say for a lunch during the week in downtown the kitchen staff and... waiter got the food out very quickly. To eat we had the Gyzo, nice light crunchy flavor with a little lacking in flavorfilling. Akron roll, was delicious and has a great flavor. The the cream cheese dosent over power however it whivh suprised mebut was a little heavy on the rice. Veggie spring rolls, not overly greasy with the right amount of crisp. Cocunt milk Tofusoup was delicious and different woth a very fresh and cremy taste.. Some feed back though would maybe clean up your to goorder area and separate them from the hostess during lunch. In closing I would go back and look forward to trying more dish Read more
