When I think of Hibachi, I think of Benihana. A five course meal with onion soup, salad, veggies,shrimp appetizer, and your entree. Hibachi Xpress is a condensed version. You're only getting veggies, and your entree. Nonetheless, although very different than Benihana in taste, it wasn't that bad. I ordered the double seafood with shrimp and scallops. My husband had shrimp and chicken. His entree looked sooooo good. Mainly because the scallops in my entree were tiny and looked a bit weird. I wasn't expecting that. Nothing was wrong with the taste, it tasted very good, it just looked different. The meals come with a side of yum yum sauce which was a creamy sweet sauce you would pour over your meal. It was ok, but I love the ginger sauce instead. Our orders were cooked fresh and made on a grill you can see from the tables. Definitely a great option for quick hibachi meals. read more

Hibachi Xpress - Chicken Teriyaki Chicken Entree - Japanese Near Me - Fairlawn, Ohio

The meats are always overcooked and bland. The fried rice is just okay. The staff is polite, but the food is underwhelming. I would recommend sticking with the chicken (teriyaki and bourbon) and avoid the steak and seafood options. read more

This place is really good for hibachi to go. I was surprised to see so many negative reviews! It was spot on and the yum yum sauce is perfect! My portions were great. It's a quiet counter service, but they were offering specials and new menu items. Worth the trip if you're craving hibachi but don't want to sit shoulder to shoulder with strangers in a loud restaurant for a 5 course commitment. read more

Hibachi Xpress - Chicken and shrimp with fried rice & veggies - Japanese Near Me - Fairlawn, Ohio

Excellent food!' I've brought nearly 10 different friends here and they have came back a 2nd time and many more. The staff is so friendly and the food is consistent with good pricing! read more

Used to order from this place often. My son ate 3 bites of shrimp and started throwing up! Ordered today because I'm hurt and unable to drive. They didn't bring half our dinner so 1 kid had something they didn't order and the other was going to have my dinner. When I called the rude husband and wife running the place could have cared less that they again left half of us without dinner. Now I get to figure out dinner a second time today and have a barfing kid. My credit card was charged the full amount even though half of our dinner was not received. I ordered the double entree with both meats shrimp so they also said they had to charge me an extra $2. All that was eaten was thrown up! What a waste of $36! She told me to have fun cooking dinner!! read more

The worst Chinese food I have ever had. Way over salted, vegetables were soggy, egg rolls tasted like eating straight salt. We had to through it all away. No wonder there is not any business. read more

Won't come here again. They never seem to have a friendly person who works here even though it's always someone different. They told me 20 mins for a pick-up order - okay, no biggie - but then I got there a little early and they said it was still going to be 20 mins. I had to cancel it because I needed to get back to work. No "sorry about that" - she acted like I was the asshole. Look, I get that you call ahead but if you'd have told me half an hour (or more) to begin with, I wouldn't have wasted my time and yours. But, seriously, no one is ever friendly here. Hit or miss on the food. I kind of feel like I just don't fully trust it, ya know. My coworker and I ordered one day and she was highly disappointed in here. read more

Used to be good food fast and at decent prices, but now they have raised prices to the point of being ridiculous and it took over 30 minutes when I watched MULTIPLE people come in after us and orderand get their food before us. Finally complained and they got attitude with me trying to claim that they were all orders placed in the apps when I literally hard them order and then be told it would be ready in 10-15 minutes. They offered nothing other than excuses (not even an apology) to make up for it and when I told the woman at the register that they lost a customer she acted happy about it read more

It's like well-seasoned mush. The seafood and veggies were cooked well, no complaints. As for the noodles...I've had better at the mall. I would suggest not cooking them to mush with a ton of sauce. It just ruins the entree. With a few tweaks, this place could be better. read more

This place always makes very tasty and authentic hibachi style dishes. I always go for the large chicken with noodles and Asian vegetables. They make their own sauces and this is always a great experience at Hibachi Express in the Fairlawn Plaza. read more

The food is horrible the staff is horrible they are professional. it's not clean the people are rude that work there the food doesn't seem like it's fresh. and to top it off the manager when I spoke to him he was just as unprofessional as a staff leadership starts at the top and this place is not a place that you should patronize think twice before eating hibachi at this restaurant. read more

I ate salmon over rice with vegetables and yum yam sauce, side of noodles, chicken eggroll, miso soup and sprite. Everything was wonderful and tasty. I enjoyed it so much. There was so much, I could not eat all of it, so I have two meals. I will order from them again. I'm getting hungry now for some noodles as late night snack!! read more

Owner is very kind but customer service by one of the girls was horrible. When I asked to speak to the manager she said "I am the manger" while raising her voice at me. later to find out she was not. Food was great though. read more

This was the worst tasting hibachi that I've ever had. The steak tasted extremely meaty and unseasoned (possibly frozen) and the vegetables were dry and gross like they were old. To make matters worse, I couldn't even douse everything in yum yum sauce because the yum yum sauce was over salty and unappetizing. Will never be returning. read more

Ok as long as you can cook rice and properly season the protein thats the start but to seal the deal you need a superb hibachi sauce and yum yum sauce. Sorry but this place didn't come through both sauces were almost mediocre. The best hibachi is about 2 exits off of 77 S. read more

i'm extremely disappointed. i ordered a small veggie with noodles and i got neither veggies or noodles. read more

This was my 1st time here, the employee at the cancer is your was nice but she informed me if I was going to order I would have to wait 40 minutes for rice ? Really, ok they said they can deliver which will cost me extra.

The food was ok, but that's about it. The location is small, and not properly ventilated. The grease from the grill just permeates the air. The portions were good, and the price was ok. We all have our bad days, perhaps this was just one of them. read more

Served us extremely chewy steak, when we called back to complain the guy argued with me and then continued to scream and cuss at me. Extremely unprofessional do not waste your money read more

Ordered take out for lunch. The steak, vegetables rice and sauce. The steak was so well done and dry it could not be eaten. There was 4 small pieces of broccoli some carrots and 1 mushroom. Nothing was seasoned and the ginger sauce was so sweet I thought I was eating sugar. I will never eat here again and I will make sure my coworkers know about the food. read more

if you like your steak overcooked and dried out this is your place ! if you like the cook to argue with you and tell you - you don't know what is medium rare this is your place! probably the nastiest cook I've ever met. read more

Slightly burnt,noodles were mush,scallops were pea size. I'm not a picky eater and I threw half the meal away,won't be back

I love hibachi express but the delivery takes forever and they just don't give as much meat as they use to which is a deal breaker for me considering how much they charge I still order from time to time but not as much as I use to read more

Would give zero stars if I could. Have never tasted such terrible food. I ordered 3 dinners for over $30.00 when we got them they were so bad all three ended up as dog food. I called the restaurant and talked to the owner trying to return them he got overly aggressive yelling at me and told me he wouldn't do anything. Terrible business you think he would have said bring them back and I'll make it right. So I'll just take it as a loss but this place will be out of business soon because of how disgusting the food is don't waste your money read more

I went to the Fairlawn location and was not impressed. No sense that it was authentic. Worse that the average Asian take-out place.
