My friends and I came in for a late dinner (8:30pm) on short notice Wednesday night and had one of the best experiences ever! Our server Kristen was delightful, attentive, and super knowledgeable about the menu. We drank the Empress 75, blueberry crush, and cucumber sake-tini and all three drinks were perfect, not too strong or sour, the bartender clearly knew what they were doing. We also got steamed pork dumpling gyozas and crab Rangoon which came out freshly made hot and were an excellent size to pop in your mouth. The sushi itself was phenomenal, since we got so much it came out on a sushi boat which was adorable. The Hiro’s Special Roll was definitely the highlight. Thank you to Kristen, the hostess, the bar, and the kitchen for an amazing night!

We are at hiro on Monday, our server Andrew was super nice and efficient! We also had the pleasure of talking to the manager, Dylan, who was also super nice and gave us lots of recommendations on rolls that he likes, both Andrew and dylan made our experience awesome! Great staff and food, would definitely recommend!

Holiday Smiles Are Brighter with Local Love! At Nebraska Family Dentistry, we believe healthy smiles shine brightest when paired with strong community spirit! This holiday season, we went the extra mile to support several wonderful local businesses, just like Hiro 88! Gifting our team with locally sourced gift cards was not only a great chance to spread joy, but also strengthen our community's roots.

Very last minute decision to come here for dinner for our Anniversary date night because this was the only place that was open fairly late. We got here around 9:35 and were extremely happy that they still so does even though they closed at 10. Major MAJOR shout out to our server first of all! What a gem! So friendly and always checking and honest if we needed anything - and it was out of genuine concern and not just to make us leave. In fact, we ended up staying beyond 10:00 p.m. and he was still super nice the entire time. Really friendly and bubbly and nice to talk to as well. As for the food.. I got the beef and broccoli and really loved it! It was steaming hot! Definitely freshly made. Good chunks of meat and really good amount of broccoli as well. I love the ratios on this year. There was quite an amount of sauce though which I was not expecting but overall it was a really good dish. May or may not have burned my tongue, but it was all worth it! My fiance got the Thai chicken curry from the entree section. He also had a good amount of vegetables in there and the chicken was really well cooked. Quite some big pieces of chicken too. Another fresh dish with a lot going on but very good things going on. We got the side salad for both orders. It was a simple greens plus dressing kind of a salad, but that dressing was out of this world! I asked the server and he said it was an in-house carrot ginger dressing. I'm now on the lookout for a good one to purchase! To end the meal we asked for the scallion pancake. Server was surprised this was our ending, but he went with it. Put it in just before the kitchen closed. The pancake was nice and flaky and really fresh and warm and crispy. Quite an amount of oil on there so I had to take some out with paper towels by pressing it but I would totally order it again. It comes with a spicy sauce which is a must!

Absolutely my favorite place to get sushi in Lincoln! Everytime I order the food not only tastes amazing but is presented so wonderfully! My only issue has been when ordering on the app it does not always tell you when your orders done, but are always friendly on the phone when you call and check!

I loved everything. How clean it was, how friendly the staff were, the quality of the food, the taste. Our server was Brandon, he was very quick and caring. I want to point out the hand rolls because they aren't all rice at the end, there's sushi from start to finish Sake bombs are yum.

Went here while visiting my daughter in Lincoln, I thought the sushi was pretty good. We had prompt friendly service and it was in a neat location. We had the mochi after we ate and it was good too. We would definitely come back again.

OMG!! What a fantastic staff with great food on top of that! So here's the story. I was in town for business and had lunch here. The food was fantastic! They even concocted a traditional sauce my wife makes that I love. As if that was not enough, the best part comes after we eat. I paid for lunch and somehow forgot my card (a common trick I perform). Not realizing it until after I got home and several WEEKS later. After checking my statement, Hiro 88 was the last place I used it. So I thought I would give it a shot so I called and asked if it was there. They still had it! AND, since I was not local, they mailed it to me! What a great bunch of people. We fly into town every 6 months or so and if I am on the trip, we will be eating here! Thank you Hiro!
