I've been eating at Hibachi Japan since I was a kid, and it's still my favorite hibachi place in Raleigh--hands down. The food is always fresh, flavorful, and served in generous portions. For the price you pay, the amount of food you get is unmatched. Whether I'm grabbing lunch or dinner, they never disappoint. If you're in Raleigh and craving hibachi, this is the spot I always recommend. Consistent, delicious, and worth every penny! read more

Hibachi Japan - Hibachi Chicken & Shrimp Teriyaki Sauce Half Fried Rice / Half Yakisoba Noodles - Japanese Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

Food is what you would expect at any other restaurant, cooks were constantly on their phones while serving food. When asked if they could remake it or give a refund. They told me they don't do that. Do not eat here if you value your food being made in clean conditions. Take your money elsewhere. read more

Came here to try some hibachi chicken. Good was tasteless in my opinion and not cooked fresh to order. I order my food at the counter and within 3 minutes it was ready. Veggies were very mushy and no seasoning. Chicken wasn't good either no flavor and a bit cold. Maybe a bad day in the kitchen but i probably won't be back. Plenty of parking and seating though! read more

Food is amazing though a bit pricey. Not too much experience with staff as I normally order ahead, ready at a good pace.

By far our favorite place for Hibachi. Good portions and good white sauce. The lunch special is very good as well.

One of my favorite places the food is very fresh, they are quick and nice staff. They also give you a lot of food and have many food items to choose from on the menu. We go here at least 3 times a month and I plan to try something different next time. I will keep you posted. read more

Haven't had hibachi takeout in well over 5 years. My kids asked to try it so after looking online at multiple places in the WF area, I chose this Hibachi Japan near the Walmart. Mainly because it was the only place that has their full menu available for online ordering and allows the choice of rice or noodles. Ordering was super easy and it was ready quickly. Place was dead when I arrived so I was nervous about the food. It was excellent as far as this style of take out food goes. We got a shrimp with rice and a steak with noodles and everyone enjoyed their dinner plus there's leftovers for tomorrow. Flavors were exactly as I remember hibachi. I particularly like that the sauces we'd prepackaged and didn't leak everywhere. read more

We have finally found out favorite hibachi restaurant! The food is very generous and very tasty. We ordered takeout when we got there and it was ready in less than 10 minutes! We got their delicious ginger sauce and white sauce on the side as well. The service was very friendly and we are very happy customers! read more

Hibachi Japan - Steak Hibachi Takeout - Japanese Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

Food is alright, service could be better, and the interior is cold and uncomfortable.

One of my favorite quick grabs in Wake Forest is Hibachi Japan. Shrimp hibachi plate and a chicken and steak hibachi plate, both with extra vegetables instead of rice. Of course, not pictured is the always important white sauce. Wait time isn't bad and if I call it in the food is ready in the quoted amount of time. read more

This place was pretty good. I got the scallop hibachi. The scallops were tender although appeared to have been cut in half and were very thin. Would have preferred them whole. I didn't love all the sauce they used to cook with scallops and veggies in before serving. It was sweet and too much in my opinion. With that said, it was a lot of food, the staff was very friendly and the take out process was seamless. I would go back for sure and maybe ask them to go easy on whatever sauce/marinade they use to cook with. read more

Manager didn't care.. place has gone down... They use to be my go-to. Now my never go again place. read more

I could've stayed home and ate my leftovers this food was horrible the chicken first of all I don't know if it really was chicken it was rubbery it had no seasoning or taste I couldn't even chew it the rice was gummy this my second time going to this place and the food was not good ever since the pandemic they fell off they need to close down because they quality in a quantity and they service has not been the same I would never go back to disestablishment read more

Portion size was very good. I would've liked more protein less onions. The veggie mix is very onion heavy.

Sooo I use to work at the rent a center establishment right next to this restaurant and I came here for a simple egg roll and hibachi but WHEN I TAKE A CHUNK OUT OF MY EGGROLL ITS A PIECE OF S USED CRUMBLED NAPKIN IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. I'm highly disgusted and I'm not letting this go read more

Hibachi Japan - a dirty plate with food on it - Japanese Near Me - Wake Forest, North Carolina

Food was dry and steak was fake and almost thought it was beef. I would totally recommend Kanki or Yummi Japan for some better food.

This place is great! I've never had a bad experience. The food is always hot and gets to you in a timely manner. I love the all day $6.99 specials as well as all the white sauce you want at no charge!!! read more

Absolutely love this place!!! I always get my hibachi chicken w/ half noodles and half fried rice everything freshly made!! The service is excellent!!! read more

Amazing steak hibachi, especially for the price! My boyfriend and I go here all of the time and have never had a bad experience. He loves the ginger sauce and I think the white sauce is amazing as well. They give a large portion of hibachi too, boyfriend and I always struggle to finish. If you're looking for a quick and delicious hibachi place, this is it. read more

Literally I've been going to this place for a few years now, but their service now is so piss poor ! I had to call about 10 times to place a to go order ! When I did get through I was put on hold for 10 min and still wasn't able to place an order because I was put on hold for so long no one ever picked up so I hung up. Attempted to call back and it was ringing and they didn't answer at all ...... read more

100% meh. I was craving some hibachi tonight and didn't feel like sitting in traffic to get to Kanki so I looked up this place on yelp. Since it had a few good reviews I thought I'd give it a shot. Kinda wish I hadn't... I got the spring roll and the hibachi chicken & steak, which comes with onions, zucchini and mushrooms and a side of "fried" rice. The chicken, onions, zucchini and mushrooms were ok, but the steak was so gristly that I only found 1 or 2 passable pieces. Thank goodness for the white sauce because it made everything much more edible. I put quotes around "fried rice" because this was definitely not anything close to fried rice. This was regular rice that'd been colored with soy sauce or beef broth, had nothing else in it (no egg, veggies, nada) and was slightly under cooked to boot. The spring roll was surprisingly good considering all of that, but not good enough to get me to go back. read more

This used to be my absolute favorite hibachi place. Ever since Covid their food has been very low quality. The chicken is stringy. The rice is old. The veggies are mush. I think they lost their best cook and it shows. Portions are smaller and prices have gone up. Really disappointing. read more

Still sliding down the star chart. Now they pre-cook their plates. Veggies are mushy and you get a pile of onions. Food still tasted okay and if you ask for fresh they will do it. Just no longer on my go to list for lunch anymore. By the look of the crowd in their at peak lunch time I can't see them lasting much longer. read more

Used to love this place. Called in an order today and gave my number. Son went to pick it up and stood on line for 30 minutes only to find out they didn't have the order. Called back and told them and they said I must have placed it at another location. Ummm, no, sorry I just called the same number that I placed the order on and just asked you if it is the Wake Forest location. Won't be going back. To bad they just lost a good customer. read more

This place is the hairy buttcheeks of hibachi restaurants. I wouldn't be surprised if they got their noodles straight out of a Kraft box. Their ginger sauce is not only disgusting but also disgusting. Vegetables are normally supposed to have some sort of crunch, right? (as Donald Trump would say) Wrong. At this hibachi place, whenever I took a bite into a piece of veg, my tastes buds were met with about as much satisfaction as digesting a cactus. If you're in the area and are looking for good noodles and vegetables, don't look here! On the flip side, their hibachi w rice is dank w some yum yum sauce. That is all. read more

this is me and my baby's favorite place to eat. i have a lot of food allergies (including eggs) so asian places are usually hard to find something, but my meal here is just so good. she gets the hibachi vegetable and i get the hibachi steak (sub mushrooms for broccoli) or sometimes we get just the veggie with a side of steak 2 save some $ (bc they give u a lot of food). feel ok about the chicken, might give it another shot soon but i really enjoy the steak. it's a little pricey but it gives u a solid amount of food i usually cant finish. service is fine; my bitch is convinced the cashier is flirting with me but i don't think so. i don't know. 4 star read more

Great priced and great food! The steak I got was delicious, and white sauce was great too and not water downed like I have had at other take out Japanese restaurants. It was cooked behind a glass window but we could see it and our kids really enjoyed that! It's like an nice Japanese take out. read more

Food is ok at best, the staff in the back are fine, but the cashier js usually rude and unhygienic. The restaurant itself is dirty and has poor lighting. Go to Asia Express up the road if you want hibachi, it's the same price and 10x better read more

The food isn't made fresh...its stored in hot containers then served. Found hair in the sauce mm. No real flavors...all around pretty piss poor read more

The place is clean and they are fast at preparing the food. It is what it is. If you are looking for top notched Hibachi then this is not the place to go. If you are looking for a decent place to have a quick lunch then I would highly suggest Hibachi. The food is always hot and they have fast service. read more

Clean place. Food is pretty good and relatively fast.

My family really likes this place because it is close and we can get the kids menu at a cheaper price and a smaller portion. A lot of Japanese places do not sell kids meals not have an option for smaller portions. Please put your hours of operation on the web, or on Yelp. read more

The tempura chicken was anything but lightly battered. The coating was so heavy and full of oil that my daughter had to peel off the batter because it was making her sick. The fried rice was more of a brown-colored rice and lacked flavor without piling-on the white sauce. The Hibachi chicken was good and prepared well, but very few pieces of onion and zucchini and the rice was the same as previously described. We were hoping for much more, but unfortunately we will not return. read more

Absolute horrible! DO NOT EAT HERE. Ordered 2 dinners and 2 spring rolls to go - 1 Chicken Hibachi, 1 Steak Hibachi. Got home and neither had any vegetables as menu stated except onions. Must have been a sale on onions. Called them and spoke to a lady who put me on hold and when she returned said that I could either come back and get a new dinner or I could stop by the following day to get my money back. When I went back in the following day, I was told that they would not give me back my money, only will give me another dinner. Really! Then they wanted to deduct the cashier's paycheck to pay me. Who does that to their employees? read more

My husband and I have gone here a few times, but every time we get sick. After three times trying different meals we don't know what it is but its not worth it! read more

OH the sarcasm.....let's all drive 11+ hrs to Pennsylvania and get some real hibachi and sushi, sorry but no thanks. I been eating at this place for a while now ever since I moved here from Virginia. I honestly love their shrimp and steak hibachi and their white sauce but most people called them the YUM YUM sauce. Practically all their prices are under $10 and fill you up completely unless you add a drink which is a little expensive $2.04 (with tax) your choice but understandable since it is free refill. While looking at the menu I noticed they do not have a lot of various types of sushi just the normal common sushi nothing too fancy (No Sashimi). I assumed that they mostly main on entree's rather than sushi but HECK!... since I am here I might tried their sushi at least once. Ordered the Crunchy Tempura Roll which I thought was pretty good but not superbly excellent like I had tried in other sushi bars. And for "Tina M" I definitely know North Carolina people have good taste in Japanese Foods especially where ever I drive I seen plenty of Hibachi and Sushi restaurants nearby. It is sadden to know I read your other reviews complaining about ordering frozen fish products from all the way down South Western Coast of Texas when you live in the East Coast which provide freshly caught fish that can be sold in the local super market whether is tuna or other kinds of fish. Anyway I will definitely be back :) 1 Star = Great food and Excellent sauce (especially the white sauce) 2 Stars = Great pricing 3 Stars= Fast service and takeout 4 stars= GET MORE WHITE SAUCE read more
