Reviews

Very delicious food for an absolutely amazing price! All of the food was fresh and served hot, or in the sushi's case, cold. The restaurant was calm and quiet, and the lighting provided a very relaxed atmosphere.
Aria Chambers
The person who took my order is so friendly and polite! I’ve been here twice now and have yet to be disappointed. The food is so fresh and hot, and the boba tea is delicious. I recommend AIchef to everyone.
Haley Foreman
Came here with my fiance for lunch. We started with the Tokoyaki. They were absolute delicious, honestly way better than I thought! And finally, the sushi. Delicious! Very fresh and good flavour too. Will be back!
Zachary Frieben
Such a cute place! We were greeted with smiles and a very friendly young lady. We all ordered sushi dinners, all very yummy. We got some boba tea, probably the best tasting one I've had. Definitely want to return.

Went to try out for the first time. Amazing food and friendly service. Very delicious with the items ordered. Definitely will have to come back to try some more dishes in the future. Very cozy atmosphere as well.
Sara Bailey
I recently dined at AiChef Express and it was an absolute delight! I ordered two delicious veggie rolls, which were a perfect balance of fresh ingredients and flavors. My visit left me thoroughly impressed. Must-visit!
