At first, everything looked really nice and delicious, but upon eating, it was clear that the food was not great. The sashimi was not fresh and the night after eating at the restaurant for both lunch and dinner we had really upset stomachs with lots of vomiting and diarrhea. The waitresses were kind, but the food took forever to arrive, and even just the water took like 15 minutes.

Meiko is usually a good sushi spot. I have tried ordering the Snow roll a few times and it doesnt come as advertised. Online it says it has Albacore on the outside but every time I order they dont make it with Albacore on the outside. Ive even sent it back and they still returned without Albacore on the outside. I tried again and they brought it back again with more toppings but no Albacore. They really need to change the description of the snow roll, it is false advertising. Their other rolls are great, which is why it is very disappointing that I cant get this roll make as advertised.
Also the spider roll had imitation crab, not soft shell crab. I dont think we will be returning...
Give this place love because they’re one of the few who didn’t jack up their prices to unreasonable levels. But here’s some feedback that I hope can be helpful to the restaurant.
Ordered lion king roll, tempura udon, and Fred & Rico roll.
Lion king was fine - tasted like the standard, no complaints
Tempura udon - taste was okay but didn’t appreciate that the to-go package had the noodles sitting in the soup. Consequently, noodles were a little soggy. If they separated the noodles from the broth it would have been just fine.
Fred & Rico - needs a lot of help. Spicy tuna didn’t taste fresh and the color was off. Think they should incorporate the spicy crab on the inside instead of leaving it loose on the top which affected the presentation and eating experience. Crab kept falling off the sushi roll. And finally, the eel had way too many bones in it. It’s typical for unagi to have some tiny bones but there were just too many in there this time.
