I returned with my husband for dine-in yesterday for my birthday. Way better than our last experience with takeout. The food tasted better. The noodles we ordered were hot and the sushi was better prepared. The salmon and unagi sushi were particularly very good, the scallop rolls were so-so. They didn't very much like scallops. Definitely, eating here is the way to go. Our server was very friendly. When you check in on Yelp, you get an offer for a 5% discount on your bill. Not a lot, but it's always nice to get a coupon. read more

The sushi was average. The waitress was jaded. There was a dead spider in my water. They went by with the plastic bucket that carries ice and it looked disgustingly dirty. The place needs to close down for a few days and do a deep cleaning. read more

Not consistent! Some times the best other the worst. Today was my bad time. The buddahs feast was less than a feast. Only few prime vegetables no to different from a beef with vgwtables. The extra side of fried rice was a joke! It was unsalted rice with a few peas roaming around. Nothing else!!!! Dont know if i will try it again. Its a roulette luck. read more

We were celebrating a loved one's birthday and went to saw the tepanyacki showcase. Hope you understand it cause I am pretty sure I misspelled the word, also known as just tepan. The show and the service of the Chef was phenomenal; we had a great time. The restaurant is spacious and well decorated appropriately for the food being served. Portions are acceptable and as expected. Overall quality is a four cause some items were simply exquisite, while others were a disappointment based on the quality expected based on the price being charged. For example, my wife's and my daughter's meat were tender well seasoned, while my fish tuna was raw and even cold at the center. The specialty rice (not the plain white) was below our expectations, simply typical Chinese rice without the extras at which we are used to have. Great option for groups that would like to have some fun while sharing great food with quality service. read more

Teppanyaki dinning has been one of my favorite dinners since 1985 when I was invited to one in Kansas City. Since then I've visiting them every time I can. In Puerto Rico, we don't have many Teppanyaki rests after Hurricane María. So East Asia Bistro is the only one available for us, but I loved it as we were to have dozens of options. My wife and I had a great time, good wine and the cook, Mr. Jason prepared our food as we wanted it! They only reason I'm giving them only 4 starts is because Mr. Jason got a little too distracted and throw must of my salmon sauce over my shirt. I would appreciate an apology, but it never came. Still I'll come back - next time I'll come prepared with a blanket or coat! read more

Food: - Crab rangoons: 4 pieces, lacked cream cheese. 3/5 - Black Dragon Roll: not bad, not great. Imitation crab, avocado roll, topped with eel and sauce. 3/5 - Singapore Fried Noodles: very bland. I hardly tasted the curry. Shrimp, chicken, eggs, red bell peppers, and onions. It was better the day after when I seasoned it with curry powder, garlic, and crushed red peppers. 3.5/5 - Mongolian Beef: very tasty! The meat was tender and flavorful. Beef, onions, red and green bell peppers. 4/5 Service: We were greeted and seated immediately. I came with a party of 25 and half the people got their food first. The other half received theirs 15-20 minutes later. And unlucky me received mine's another 10 minutes later. By the time I got my food my friends were almost done with theirs. Luckily I got appetizers or else I would have been furious. My hungry face isn't that pretty! lol. It was still frustrating, though. I had to ask about my food to make sure it wasn't forgotten to be put in. Then my friend asked again because it still hadn't come after 15 minutes of me asking. 2/5 Final thoughts: The food was mediocre and the service was not consistent. I may come back to try their hibachi. I probably won't have to wait as long for my food :/ read more

I'm so sad of making this review because this was my favorite restaurant for many years;however, I hadn't gone there for over four years so I didn't know what I was going to find there, I did have a huge craving for it so I had very high hopes. First of all we ordered many appetizers, starting with the miso soup it was horrible and sour (which a miso is not supposed to be), the wonton soup was old and not very good at all, the hot and sour was actually good according to my sister, the dumplings were cold not raw cold (as if they were cooked and just left outside, the edamame were good (but how can you make an edamame wrong), the fried chips were really good and that we really enjoy;also, all the sources tasted like water, as if they only added food coloring to it. The main courses were ok, the filet mignon was good; however, pretty tasteless; the scallops were good, the rice was actually very bad (I had really good memories about the rice and was actually looking forward to it) the meat in the rice was old and the rice as a whole was VERY VERY tasteless, the sushi was good, the pork sweet and sour was eatable, and the Mongolian beef was ok. The drinks were average. In all, my disappointment was so great that I don't plan on coming back. read more

first time here. Everything was excellent. Nice atmosphere and friendly service. I had the crab Rangoon appetizer, egg drop soup, beef stir fried noodles. Highly recommend. read more

The name "Asian Bistro" comes with the promise of a an oriental restaurant with a personality of its own. The sad reality is that this hodgepodge of Chinese, Japanese, and American Teppanyaki can't make up its mind what it is supposed to be and does not get any of the styles right. Asian Fusion it is not. A menu of over 160 items is ridiculously ambitious and ends up equally lacking in quality and presentation. Your first challenge will be avoiding the tables that do not wobble and the second will be finding a pleasant location in the over-sized and understaffed faux oriental main dining room. Service will be courteous but not particularly fast or diligent. You will find no seasonings at the table so you will have to settle for the bland and overcooked dishes and white rice. My Szechuan Phoenix ($18.00 which they spell Scechuan Phonex) had everything julienne shredded including the beef. It was served spicy hot because I asked - totally ignoring the fact that this is meant to be a hot dish when served anywhere else. The Lotus Delight ($20.00) ordered by my wife (also supposed to be hot) was, in her opinion, inedible and affected her stomach for the rest of the day. We gave our waitress some feedback about or disappointment, but were never approached by the owner who was too busy to listen to clients. On the positive side they offer free WiFi but we were told that is was not working. The fact that this was not revealed until we had ordered automatically results in the loss of an additional star in my book. We left very disappointed with no intent to return. This is mass production at its worse and I would not expect their other locale called "Sushi" at 74 Condado ave. in San Juan to fare much better. read more

Came here because I saw the Yelp ad and it triggered a massive itch for tepanyaki. TLDR: good enough to scratch a tepanyaki itch but probably not worth a 20 minute drive for someone who has regular access to Asian food at home. The food and service were both decidedly okay but not great. We had to wait about 20 minutes before the tepan show started. The show itself was a lot less polished than is currently the standard at Benihana's on the east coast but it was amusing enough. Food wasn't awful. Skirt and filets were cooked very well and everyone at the table liked the steaks. The consommé was pretty good too although not as clear as I'd expect at a French restaurant. Fried rice was a little too dry with too little egg and too little chicken. Scallops were burned on one side just a little and too salty. Shrimps were just slightly overcooked. Salmon was very nice but just a hair too well done for me. At the end, I had a good enough experience to scratch the tepanyaki itch but not good enough for me to uber 20 minutes here again but might eat here if I pass the area for some reason. If you're looking for a place to eat Japanese, just keep your expectations in check and I think you will enjoy your meal here. read more

Julia This restaurant is linked to Opium and East Sushi from Condado and it's their flagship location. The food and presentation are excellent. The place is more for locals as most tourist will not know where Guaynabo is. It's a fun place, whenever I drop by all I see are smiling happy faces. It's in the shopping area of Guaynabo and the restaurant has ample parking. Throw a coin by the Buddha and make a wish as you enter... People enjoy their experience here, whether it's sitting in front of the teppanyaki table for the show to come. Now if you've never had teppanyaki before. You got to try it out. The kids will love it, your date will love it. it's quite interactive and the chefs there are really good. I say that because I'm use to seeing asian teppan chefs but seems like there's a number of really good PR teppan chefs as well. I would go with the filet. Excellent and cooked just right. Have your guest order the chicken or shrimp and share. It's a pretty filling meal but go ahead and order a few rolls to start. The rest of the restaurant is catered to large parties. i mean enormous parties if you need the space. There's a back room and I'm sure they can do a special menu for you. The tables are primarily set to serve asian fusion which is basically different chinese, japanese, and thai like dishes. All done very well and lots of similarities to something you would see at a PF Changs. Now this is not a chinatown like experience, nor is it suppose to be. Go there for bday parties and dates and family gatherings. The sushi bar is actually very good and they do nice specialty rolls. I will try to get more descriptive on an update but it's been a month or so since I've been there.... I'm thinking you can get a great meal with apps entrees to share, maybe some fried rice and a drink for about $30 or so. Teppanyaki may cost you a bit more.... But if your reading this.. just for fun... ask the waiter to get Steven and tell him that you would like the "Godfather Special" and you may get a nice free treat :) read more

Well guysss, this review it's the best one yet! Went to this wonderful restaurant Nov. 20, 2010 and let me tell ya it was awesome. My boyfriend and I ordered appetizers, the hot rolls of tuna and crabstick and they were mmmmmmmmmmmm..........delish considering I had never tasted them. And then we ordered the sushi pizza of shrimp and crabstick, a little bit spicy but awesome! We then decided to order some fried rice with chicken and the pepper steak and OMG, excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For drinks I ordered some wine and my boyfriend hot Sake..........mmmmmmmmmm.........very good! For me, once again, this restaurant is an excellent choice to just have a great meal or enjoy a great evening with some hot rolls and/or sushi with some great company, of course. For me this place, as always, it's a good as it gets and WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY TO GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! But I guess next time I will consider to demand a better service from our waiter since we had to always call him for some service, :-) read more

Best Asian rice. It contains a lot of oil, but I love it. :) Mejor arroz o alo flito. :)))))))))))))))))))) read more

Short summary: Food was good, although nothing amazing. Service wasn't consistent. Some waiters were really good, others not so. When we got there we were seated very quickly. However, it seemed as if the teppans were understaffed because it took almost 75 minutes for the cook to arrive and start preparing our food. Looking at other tables it seemed as if the level of mastery of the cooks was inconsistent. Some were pros while others were not as artful. The food was tasty and well seasoned. We had the chicken consommé, garden salad, fried rice, filet mignon, skirt steak and teriyaki pork. The salad was standard but I found a piece of plastic in mine. Knocked off a star for that. For dessert we had the brownie with ice cream. Tasty but nothing remarkable. Price wise it is slightly above average. Would come back again. 3/5 read more

I've gone here for lunch a couple of times, and I think the Chinese food here is the most authentic that I can find in Puerto Rico (although, I am on a continuous search). I have had the Hong Kong Pan fried noodles, wonton soup, and half of a roast duck...yes they have roast duck! The noodles and the duck were like comfort home foods for me. The beef and the chicken in the noodles tasted kind of off to me but the sauce was exactly how I imagined it to be. Thanks to East Bistro, I no longer have to wait until I visit home to satisfy my Chinese food cravings. I still have to try the rest of the menu to ensure that this is the real deal. The only down side about this restaurant is the high prices, but I guess most Chinese restaurants in PR are pretty expensive. I was a little sadden to pay $20 for my duck because I knew that I could get half a duck for like 8 bucks in NYC. But at the end of the day, I was just happy to get the chance to eat duck. read more

I ate wayyyyyy too much chinese food in my entire life. I have been to china to taste the authentic food. I am chinese and always ate chinese food. So, I can tell if one is good and authentic chinese food or good chinese food but already altered to fit local taste or bad chinese food. This one is good chinese food but already altered to fit local taste. We ordered shezhuan phoenix which was chicken and beef with some sauce. It was plain. Shezhuan should be a little bit spicier. This one plain. The presentation was good though. So, when i ate it, i have to add more salt to make it tastier. The mongolian beef was good but not great. A little bit tastier than shezhuan phoenix that we ordered. The beef was tender and the sauce add the richness of the beef. The fried rice was basic fried rice. Nothing bad or good. Really, just a very normal basic fried rice. A little bit overprice for what we got, but i bet asian food is kind of expensive in puerto rico since we could not find a lot of asian restaurants here. One thing that i like is the atmosphere. And don't surprise when you see the number of the waiters are more than the customers (at least when i went there, that's what i saw). Just an OK read more

The food was good. Don't be surprised if they cook the meat and give you only half of it and throw the rest away! This happened to my fiancee. That's a waste of food! Horrible! The waitress apparently had too many tables and didn't tend to us very well either. The cook was very serious and didn't interact much with the group. I probably won't come back here. read more

One of the best Chinese and Japanese restaurants in the island. The waiters are very friendly and polite. Ask for Jaime!

Very very disappointed! On Monday, Nov 1st, I had a 3:00 pm reservation for a teppanyaki "experience" for me and my daughter. We were there on time, (5 minutes earlier). Ordered a sushi (BTW it was delicious) and a couple of drinks. They served the soup and the salad but after that we waited 1 hour and 20 minutes and nobody came to acknowledge us or explain the reason of the delay. When we decided to leave, the manager, named Hector, was very polite, he apologized and asked us to give another opportunity which I will. I left because by that time my experience was shattered. My recommendation is to first of all, if they don't have enough personnel, DON'T book a reservation. Also acknowledge customers and let them know what is going on or offered other options. read more

East Asian Bistro - Asian Fusion Near Me - Guaynabo, Puerto Rico

Food is good but, too expensive. The Chicken is $20 plus the change from white rice to fried rice is $3 (plus the addition to the tax and tip this causes, you are paying $4 for a small bowl of fried rice per person). It's not included like in other Tepanyaki grills. Found this out the hard way, when the bill came and I got a nasty surprise. I ended up paying $108 for 3 people! And we didn't even have alcohol. The show was just ok. They do the usual (the best part being the onion volcano) but it feels like they just give you the bare minimum. Not much interaction with the people. read more

I love it the food's great it gets crowded on some weekends the prices aren't bad for the amount that is served at the Tepanyaki table.

This place is OK. Fine food lovers may find it overpriced for what you get (not Budatai quality), but still enjoyable. Peking duck is good, sushi rolls are good too (again, don't expect the nice New York or LA type of quality). read more

The best Asian food in Puerto Rico. The staff is very attentive. The owner stopped by to check in on us.

Food (Sushi) - We ordered about six diferent sushi rolls. The sushi had too much rice, the fish was bland with no taste and had no veggies.
