JK’s Table

very authentic Japanese day-​to-​day food. Enjoy eating there each time I am in the neighborhood. My recommendations are those Donburi (Bowls; spicy tuna and veggie). ohh. dont forget about those small size sweets. You enjoy quality…

Ordered TERIYAKI CHICKEN DON (BOWL) $ 7.99 through Foodsby for the 2^nd and LAST time. The first time, no problem, fresh and delicious. This time, some of the chicken had a hard rubber texture that caused me to question it’s freshness, like it’d been microwaved or frozen and cooked too quickly… so of course I ejected it into a napkin and stopped putting chicken in my mouth. Gross! It’s impossible for me to enjoy my meal when it’s been «compromised» in some way. Food poisoning is no joke. Also, while I’m here, the bowl is supposed to contain some veggies; and it did, like ¼ cup, which is hardly anything.
Disappointed, never again. It’s just chicken, how difficult can it be?
1 star because the delivery was on time and still warm, even though the rest of it sucked. Guess I’ll go to the office vending machine for lunch.

JK’s table is a breath of fresh air in the chain food wasteland of west Bloomington/​south Edina. Unassuming and expectation lowering to say the least on approach, they’re located in a baby poo brown square of an office building. Those lucky SOB cube farm drones get to walk right over for their tasty lunch, I have to drive. Look for the little stake in signs they place on the office complex grounds to guide your way.
Inside, you’ll find a nice little lunch café. Sandwiches, sushi, rice bowls and more. Order at the counter, get a number and find a seat.
You can get a cheaper lunch, but you’ll feel terrible and be full of things you can’t pronounce. Here, you can get a lunch combo of a spicy tuna roll & small udon bowl for $ 10. Or a really damn good spicy tuna rice bowl that I can inhale in an impressive amount of time. The fish tastes fresh and the prices are very fair.
Biggest downside: Service can take a bit. You needed to catch up on your IG feed anyway. #important

Got the #9 roll and Banh Mi w/​chicken to go, both were fantastic despite the 25 min. drive home.

Great little place in an office complex with sushi and noodle soup. Also American Food. My friend suggested that we would go there since he was there once before. I must say that I was pleasantly surprised with this little gem in and unobscured are non-​visible location. They had many sushi options as well as a variety of Japanese noodle soup’s. The prices were very reasonable the food was extremely good and I can’t wait to go back.

Who would have thought that there would be an amazing Japanese lunch spot in the middle of an office park in Edina?
JK’s Table has the best vegetarian options in probably the whole of Edina. So far, I’ve had the Curry Kitsune Udon and the Spicy Veggie Sushi Bowl — both were fresh, flavorful, filling, and frugal! The staff is super sweet and very accommodating. Can’t recommend them more!

Got the Spicy Tuna Bowl for lunch today, super fresh! Rice was sticky and sweet. Sauce was spicy and generous helping of tuna. Will definitely be going back!

Just started working in the area, and was very excited to see an Asian restaurant (their menu has items from many Asian countries) which had such rave reviews.
I got the pork belly bahn mi. The bread was mushy and spongy with an almost sourdough taste, the pork belly was very grey and looked as though it was expired, and the pickled vegetables didn’t bring much flavor to the party…
I saw other dishes being prepared in the open kitchen, as I was waiting for my order; from my perspective it didn’t seem like the used the freshest ingredients.
Will not be recommending /​returning.

Lovely small place with great food. Good pricing as well. Almost no wait time during lunch.

Tried this place for the first time, and I definitely will be back. I ordered the chicken gyoza and the chicken bahn mi sandwich. I wasn’t as big a fan of the sandwich, but that’s because I’m not hot on cilantro. The gyoza were good, the restaurant was clean and spacious, and the employees were all incredibly nice. Great atmosphere! Definitely want to come back and try more things.

Outstanding! A hidden gem in the middle of an office park district. Some of the best, if not best sushi I have had in the Twin Cities. I also highly recommend the Spicy Tuna Bowl, and the Teriyaki Chicken Sandwich.

Given the outstanding Unilocal reviews, I was excited to try JK’s Table, planning on enjoying a hidden gem. Sadly, JK’s Table is not a hidden gem.
Spicy tuna — mushy paste, doubtful that it’s made in-​house
Soft shell crab — cold, flabby batter. If it was house-​made (which I doubt) it was made far in advance of our ordering.
Chicken kara-​age– good spicy sauce, but same flabby batter issue
Veggie roll — fine. Unremarkable.
Miso soup — good
Goma Ae — made with avocado, not spinach. Different, but good.
For what we got and the quality of the food, it was expensive. For rolls nearing $ 10, I expect top quality ingredients. We won’t be returning.

Sushi is hand rolled fresh. So delicious!

Outstanding food! This place is definitely worth trying but, avoid lunch hours if you hate the waiting.

Imagine you wake up in an office building. Outside of this office building are two roads, ever so curved towards the South East. You realize you are hungry and begin your trek down this road past the monolithic, scopious executive buildings that line the highway. Everything is a daze, fast moving vehicles nimbly dodging you as you wander down the road. You arrive at a cross roads, eager to try new foods from this land of wonder.
You find a quick-​serve sandwich shop, a pizza joint, a coffee shop and a fast-​food burger drive thru.
Again.
Just like everyday you wake up at your desk, starving. It’s Edina, and you can’t figure out why an area so high-​buck can’t find some variety!
Until now!
I have worked in this area for almost 5 years, and there has never been any variety until about a year ago. Now, some higher end restaurants are opening up, across the highway, but not everyone has time for that. This is a fantastic option for anyone working on Metro Blvd, who wants to STAY on the west side of HW100 during lunch-​rush-​hour, and I only discovered it today.
If you work in the 7300 or 7400 building, WALK! Get on out there and walk over, it’s worth the steps and it’s a 5 minute walk at best. Be careful, though, because cars come flying down Metro Blvd without a care in the world. The entrance is well signed, and there are two doors you can enter through.
Now, onto the food.
Chicken Breast Udon Noodle Soup: Flavorful, perfect balance of spice and savory chicken. It was garnished with a little bit of wakame, small cuts of green onion and shaved carrot. Some small pepper flakes were atop the chicken breast, which gave it the perfect kick. Udon noodles cooked perfectly, not overly mushy or too firm. The chicken breast was sliced wonderfully, allowing me to eat it with a fork and not worry about a knife. I don’t know how to use chop sticks, but I imagine this soup is very chop stick friendly. (I’m accepting applications if anyone wants to teach me how!)
Edamame: Steamed perfectly. Moisture retained, so the beans slid out perfectly. Evenly salted, juicy soybeans. Mmm. I can’t say much more without sounding strange. A+. Delicious.
Tofu Sushi: This is where they really got me. I have never tried sushi before. Maybe once, and I don’t remember liking it. (I do remember ending that date after I spit it out.) This time, I was feeling adventurous. I asked the wonderfully attentive woman behind the counter if she had sushi with no raw fish I could try. She showed me several selections, so I ordered the Tofu sushi.
It is very true to the name. It is tofu, sesame rice and wrapped in seaweed paper. Garnished with pickled ginger, wasabi and soy sauce, I dug in.
Now, I mentioned I don’t know how to use chopsticks, so I’m sure I looked goofy trying to balance slices of ginger on a fourth of a sushi roll with my fingers. But it was delicious, and I wasn’t afraid to try the rest! I’m really glad I got to start with baby steps, next time I plan to try something new. Wrapped nicely, this would be great as a simple snack (4 slices) or for the kids to try.
The atmosphere is very reminiscent of a quick-​service, in/​out deli, but the service and food quality is everything but lacking. The food is brought out to you, and I was out the door within 30 minutes.
I highly recommend trying this place out if you work in the area. The prices are adequate (my whole meal came out to under $ 20 for a lot of food) and the quality shows. When I ate at 1:00PM, it was very quiet and I was one of two people eating.

Great lunch place! High quality foods with reasonable price!

Really like this little gem of a restaurant. The menu has both Japanese and American fare. Super convenient with plenty of tables. A nice choice if you want something different (and healthier) than burgers or pizza for lunch.
