I always eat here when my flight schedule allows. The service is fantastic and the food is always good. The best restaurant at MSP by far.

This MSP Delta terminal spot(near G gates) is a great spot to pass some time and enjoy a good meal. The Americanized Japanese(and Thai) food is tasty and service is fast. Menu has sushi, noodles and some special entrees. iPad ordering is efficient, however with this new format is 18% gratuity really warranted(especially when you determine tip at the time of ordering)? Would prefer to have service baked into the price given the service model.

The smell is what brought me in! Had the spicy tuna rolls and –even though airport priced– were pretty good for the price. Service is okay even though you order with iPads mainly. I love the Japanese snacks they have at the barista counter! So cute.

This Japanese restaurant is located inside MSP airport, in G1. Service sucks here, but I do have to admit the iPad ordering system was pretty cool. I ordered the Miso Ramen and potstickers. The food was seriously underwhelming… and NOT served hot. Actually, both times I’ve been here, it tasted like my food was sitting out for a while. This place is not cheap either, so I won’t be returning.

My husband and I ate here during a layover. The computer offers a unique way to view the menu and order. Sushi was just slightly above average.

For an airport restaurant this is close to a 5, but to be fair it is more of a 3.5 overall. A little pricey, and not everything on the menu is a hit. I recommend ordering sushi or the ramen noodle soups. Those are solid and get brought out quickly.

This fascinate sushi bar is located by G gates, I didn’t find this place first time when get to MN. Finally gets a chance on the return trip. Everything is digitally ordered through IPad. The atmosphere is delight with the open glass and all the oriental decorations. I ordered the stir fried lamb, which I liked most. I also had edamame and fried squids, flavor is not strong enough maybe less salt? The waiter is super nice and always has his service around. Will go back next time fly through MN.

The food is really good here, but the service and high prices make it one to skip when at MSP. Be prepared to pay $ 20 – 30 per person and leave hungry. I recently stopped by for sushi on a layover in MSP. The restaurant has all iPads that are used to place your order. Once you place your order, a waiter comes over to get you anything you need(usually). On the most recent visit, I had to flag somebody down to get waters after waiting 15 minutes. It’s worth noting that at least half the tables were empty too. It was like pulling teeth to get a paper receipt(needed for expenses) from the waiter. I had previously been here and another waiter had asked us if he could get them for us, so I thought it was a common request. I ordered the miso soup and a California roll, but the miso soup was SO salty that I ended up only eating half of it. I would have sent it back, but the waiter never showed his face at our table after delivering the waters(food brought out by food runners). Additionally, I happened to be sitting with a co-worker at a table for two and our dinners came out at least 10 minutes apart(about a twenty five minute wait total for her food). Again, hard to understand since the restaurant wasn’t even full. The sushi was quite good and the food I’ve gotten in the past has also been quite tasty. Perhaps I’ll stick to take out in the future? There are so many great restaurants in MSP that this one is not worth the time. I won’t be going back anytime soon.

I have been wanting to eat here for years!!! That sounds weird, doesn’t it? I mean, it’s a restaurant in an airport! This time the walk to my connecting flight took me right by Shoyu and I had enough time to stop in. I am a sashimi fan, so that’s what I wanted. Two pieces for $ 8 — hamachi. I ordered ‘times two’, because two pieces surely wouldn’t be enough. Tiny, tiny pieces of hamachi. The flavor was okay, but it wasn’t super fresh. I’d say, what would one expect from sashimi in an airport? but hey… it’s a restaurant that serves sashimi. There’s no reason it shouldn’t be fresh; that is their business. Don’t get me wrong, it wasn’t nasty. It was okay and it was tiny. Did I mention it was tiny? It was tiny. I mean at $ 4 a piece… seriously, even at an airport where everything is expensive, make it not tiny. They have other items on the menu that might be better options, but I don’t think I’ll give this place another shot.

Unbelievable experience at Taste of Shoyu! I had about 30 minutes to chill before I had to catch a flight back home. A friend told me I needed to check this place out. I am so glad I did! From the ambiance to the ease of ordering & paying via an iPad, the delicious shrimp pad thai, I was so pleased! I didn’t even feel like I was eating«airport food.» It took hardly no time at all from the time I ordered, to the time my food arrived. And it was steaming hot! But oh so good. The shrimp had a nice, light batter. The pad thai was amazing — the spice, the noodles … all of it! There wasn’t a need for waiter interaction, because I sat at the bar. I liked how you could watch the«goings on» in the«kitchen area.» Also, plenty of TVs can keep you up to date on sports or news. The spot was very clean. Prices were a bit much, but understandable. They over Asian dishes as well as sushi.

So, you know how there’s that quote, «He can dance for a White guy.» I don’t know if it’s fair, but, «It’s good ramen for an airport.» Airport food normally sucks. You got the usual Mc Donald’s that’s overpriced but tastes extra gross. Somehow they manage to make soggy fries, just because it’s in an airport. Panda Express always has the mushy orange chicken. It’s like airports are really talented at serving crap food no matter what chain it is. This airport seemed to have quite a variety of foods. Nice job. Love the iPads everywhere, and the super semi complicated but high tech system of ordering foods via the iPad even when you’re actually SITTINGDOWNINSIDE of the restaurant. I found that a bit weird, but I get it. You guys are a hub, and you want to be cool. Pork ramen– 4 stars. 4 stars for an airport? Well, when expectations are low, you can’t help but to be a bit impressed. IT was actually not bad at all. The broth was clean, simple, and flavorful. Not the best ramen I’ve ever had, but good. Sadly, went to eat here again on our return flight, and this same dish went down to a 2.5 stars for me. Broth was not as good, was just plain salty, and MEH. Hence, perhaps there are different reviews and ratings at this place, depending upon who’s the chef? Thai fried rice with egg on top– 4 stars. NOTBADATALLLL. This dish was actually good, I mean like if it WASN’T at the airport, I still woulda given it a 4 stars. Nice flavor. Serving was ridiculously huge, we couldn’t even finish it. Tantan men– 2 stars. MEhhhhhhhhh. We ordered this on our return flight, and again, maybe the chef was different because it was really weird. The broth was super thick, and the noodles were almost hard and mushy in a weird way. Somehow the starch in the noodles and broth weren’t mixing too well, and it just didn’t taste right. I wondered if they threw in corn starch to thicken the soup, hence this weird situation was going on. Not that great at all. Good luck, fellas. Your flavor experience here might really just be based on a who is cooking in the back. IT’s hard to screw up on a fried rice dish, unless you’re Panda Express at the airports, so I say try them out first.

I love that MSP has an alternative to the usual airport eats. And Shoyu is one of them. The first time I flew through MSP I saw Shoyu and made a mental note to eat here during my travels, plus I love ramen! It is located at the entrance to terminal G or as my friend calls it the«hipster» terminal. I’ve eaten here twice now. It’s a cool, modern space in the airport. Shoyu has an eating bar the spans the perimeter of the kitchen, which is where I like to eat. There are tables and seats as well. Each bar seat has an iPad and charging stations. The iPad is there for free internet surfing, but most importantly it is where you place your order. Yup! There’s is minimal interaction with staff, but they are there. So here’s the caveat, service sucks here, I don’t know if the iPads make the staff seem despondent or what. But in my most recent visit each person sitting near me had to ask for utensils and napkins AFTER there food was delivered. Now wouldn’t you automatically have those when they give you water? And speaking of water, I had to ask for refills several times. Anyway, that’s where I will end my «b!tch» session on service. Now about the food, I’ve only ordered the pork ramen. And it’s actually pretty good for an airport spot. It’s salty, and the noodles are cooked well(i.e. it’s a still al dente and not over cooked). The pork in the ramen is a bit sweet and reminds me on kalua pork(like from Hawaii). I like Shoyu enough that this would be my go-to dine in spot at MSP. But I’ll only come by if I have a long enough layover. I hope to try more foo
