"Shogun Sushi is a small restaurant that you could be completely forgiven for missing as you drive past on an unlit evening. I'd encourage you not to do so. This quiet, clean, unrushed and utterly unpretentious establishment has seemingly one focus, and that is the quality of the sushi they prepare. I enjoyed a spicy tuna roll that was spot on in its subtlety and focus on the flavor of the tuna, something only done at restaurants not motivated to hide their lesser quality ingredients with an overabundance of heat. Likewise the salmon roll with scallop was a subtle and well-integrated dish, made carefully, and presented well. My appetite only permitted me to try the two rolls, but I'm now eager to go back with friends. There are many paths to disappointment and regret whilst attempting sushi in the AV. You may spend just a bit more here, but you will feel better about yourself (and likely just feel better) after you dine here.

"The food at this restaurant is excellent! The ambiance matches the quality of the food. I am not a local, but if you are in the area, you should definitely give this place a try. The espresso was delicious, and the dishes were tasty, fresh, and well-prepared. They could have used a little less salt, but overall the food was still good. I went during a busy time, so I'm not sure how they handle rushes. I wish they had a lunch menu because without one, a sandwich can be quite expensive. A whole sandwich costs over $20 and a half sandwich is $15."

"I just got done eating the best Thai food I've had in a while! I'm not going to lie; I do have 2 other Thai spots that I enjoy, but this one here tops them all!!! The food is so fresh, flavorful, and the portions are great! Jasmine Thai has taken the #1 spot on my list Delicious Thai Cuisine"

"The Lemon Leaf cafe, in Lancaster, is nice. The menu is limited. Here you place your order at the counter and a server brings your food to the table. I like this type of set up when I'm meeting someone and we are paying separately. It takes the awkwardness out of receiving the check. I ordered the soup of the day. It was some sort of bean soup. I can't remember the name or what my friend ordered. That is how unmemorable and unexciting the menu is at this cafe. The food was okay. Nothing special, at all. The decor was mediocre as well. The service was on the left side of okay, too. My companion ordered a cake to go and even though our plates were cleared and it was obvious we we had concluded our meal, the server never asked if she was ready for her to-go dessert. She had to go fetch it herself. Not a big deal but, it doesn't make for superior customer service. I didn't use the bathroom but, apparently a key is required. I will give them another try. It is in the only interesting area of Lancaster. It is on Lancaster Blvd. Lancaster Blvd is our City's attempt at an attractive meeting area with quaint shops like antique stores, a candy store, a few restaurants, Theaters, museum, etc..... but, the energy does not compare to places like The Orange Circle or Downtown Long Beach. The stores are basic and not special. However, we have nowhere else around the Antelope Valley. So. I will go back, when meeting friends."

"I love their veggie burrito (which includes marinated tofu, beans, and grilled veggies, and their roasted veggie bowl (with a vegan pesto sauce, served over rice and quinoa). They have other vegan options such as salad, and most dishes can be made with tofu instead of meat. Great tasting food, especially for the area. Not many restaurants in the AV serve quinoa and kale... lol. They have a salsa bar with a delicious avocado salsa and pickled carrots, to name a few of my favorites. Vegan options are clearly marked on the menu."
