This place is fine when you are starving and in a pinch; however, the sushi is uninspired and overpriced. Both myself and my fiance were not impressed. He was especially not impressed with the salmon skin roll, which was a free treat from the chef. He would have rather saved room for something better. The miso soup is okay - but nothing truly memorable. Overall, the sushi is higher priced than average for the area. For great sushi nearby, head to Tokyo Restaurant in Peabody near Trader Joe's!! Love it!! For great sushi chef hospitality, head to Fortune Palace II in Essex. read more

five full stars for the amazing sushi! hand rolled, spicy, fresh and so delicious I crave them. The last star is the pace it took our sushi chef to prepare our food. at least 30 minutes. Now it was awesome...but there was only one other table waiting to be served. The awesomeness of the flavor and freshness are worth the trip, I just wonder when its full how long it will take. Go there read more

DINERS BEWARE! This place has gone so far down hill its gross. I used to be a loyal customer here until New Years when I was forced to wait over 3 hours for food I ordered 1 day in advance. This place absolutely sucks and should be shut down. Do yourself a favor and get Chinese anywhere else. read more

Ordered takeout tonight- gyoza, spare ribs, orange chicken and chicken with broccoli. Everything was great! Super happy with dinner, will definitely order again! read more

So far SO AWESOME, we've eaten their food several times. The food and service is excellent & fast. The food is always fresh and steaming hot. We try something different everytime, my favs L8 & L19. The sides are invidually packed so its not all crowded in one box. A co-worker love the lunch box (sushi) & sushi. Prices are great and no skimping on the food.You wont be disappointed with this place. read more

I'm glad I happened upon Iron Chef! I moved to Beverly 2 years ago and, until today, my search for decent Chinese food on the North Shore had been unfruitful. I've eaten at about 5 local Chinese restaurants and none, imho, have been worth returning to. But...lo-and-behold! Tucked neatly into a little nondescript roadside plaza, I FINALLY had me some good Chinese food! Yay! Listen, I admit I'm no connoisseur, but I've been eating Chinese food on a regular basis my whole life...in the suburbs, in the boonies, in Chinatowns around the country...and I'm not referring to whether the food is "traditional" or "Americanized" or whatever...All I'm saying is that the food we got tonight was good quality and very tasty. Also, the dining room was clean and smelled very good. This place is *not* a dive. I'll definitely be going back for more moo shu soon. read more

This is my favorite place to go ever. There sushi is fantastic. Especially there shrimp tempura. Also the wine they have is excellent. I really recommend this place for people who like sushi. read more

I Must say I had a good meal here. I must say after reading the reviews I didn't expect to have a good meal. Did I go to the same restaurant?? Our Selections were primarily from the Chinese menu. Portions were generous, meaty , well prepared , and priced well Service was attentive -our primary server seemed a little inexperienced but made up for it with her attention to make us happy If I had to make one note for discussion it would be that the eggplant and the lamb dishes were slightly sweet. Some people may like less sweetness. No one complained at our table If your looking for pu pu platters and fried rice go to Kowloon.... If your looking for a good Chinese or sushi meal go to Iron chef in Danvers Menu: Avacado salad Bbq Spare ribs Pinenut chic/shrimp lettuce wrap Lamb with ginger and scallion Udon noodles with shredded pork Eggplant with garlic sauce. read more

Great food and excellent service! We arrived at 5pm and we were alone. I ordered egg rolls, salt and pepper wings, crab rangoon, Singapore noodles and General Gau. Everything was fresh and crisp and tasty. I appreciated the fact that they asked what order we wanted the food to come out in since we ordered so much. The General was crispy and gooey at the same time, the egg rolls were super fresh - to list the most noteworthy. I would say that this place will fall into my weekly rotation. When it was time to leave at 6pm, there was a line out the door for takeout and a wait for tables. I guess you can say, the hype is real! PS - the decor is very current and the restrooms were spotless! Yay for good Chinese on the North Shore! read more

while the food is ok, the service is horrible. I've never had a take out order ready when promised. last night I had to wait 30 minutes after arriving to pick up. They didn't start the order until I arrived. read more

This is a local gem for Asian food. It's delicious, well prepared, high quality. The people who work here are nice. The atmosphere pleasant. It's worth a stop and good for delivery too. Bit on the quiet side, but charming. read more

Preordered on New Year's Eve well ahead of time for a pickup. When we got there, early because knew there would be a wait, the crowd was building and angry. We waited for over an hour for our number to be called. Frustrated, we left with no food and out a lot of money. We tried getting in touch for a refund via phone and text with no reply. Never going back. read more

Decent prices. Good food. I really liked this place but I was kinda hoping for more than just 6 rolls when I ordered. Overall it was a decent experience. read more

I love this place! The owner and his team are very friendly and super hardworking. I recently moved back to the area and can stop by for the freshest sushi- more often. Every time I come, I listen to what others are ordering around me, and try a new dish. Great sushi- great sake read more

Always delicious! Our favorite Chinese food restaurant! Delivery is usually faster than they say it'll be!

Absolutely ridiculous! Stood outside restaurant for 2 hours New Year's Eve with literally over 100 others. How can you accept 100s of orders, accept payments and have no plan to distribute? Numbers assigned in order of calls ow can you call out #14 and then #412 knowing there was a two hour differential in when orders were made? I have yet to try their food and now I never will. Absolutely no excuse! read more

Great place and food. Delivery was early extra sauces were given. Crab Rangoon was good. Sweet and sour chicken was perfect. Nice job!!

Order food from them. And delivery driver demanded a tip and refused to leave my house without one. When he was told he was tipped thru the app I ordered it from. He said it wasn't, we gave him a cash tip and told him how rude it was to ask for a tip.After he asked for more money. I called the restaurant to complain, and when I told them how rude it was to demand a tip, the person on the phone said it wasn't rude to ask for a tip. Needless to say I will not be ordering from them again. read more

Hands down the best chicken teriyaki sticks and boneless ribs I've ever had.

My wife was told by a friend how great this place is. We had ordered takeout years ago. It was awful....Based on the recommendation, we decided to give it another try for takeout. What a tremendous disappointment. One item ordered was Salt and Pepper Wings. They were listed on menu as hot and spicy. Besides NOT being hot, or spicy, they were reheated from the night before. We ordered $60/worth of food. All of it was not freshly prepared. I wouldn't buy my dog any of this expensive, substandard trash. read more

Best Chinese food in Danvers! Their crab rangoons are delicious! Also love the bbq spare ribs on the bone are tasty too. Sometimes I order delivery and their delivery service comes quickly and really nice drivers! read more

While eating food from this restaurant we found a long black hair in the general gaos chicken and they forgot some of our order. When we called to say something to the owner he aggressively told us to bring the hair down. When we did bring it down the owner told us to call the police because he was accusing us of putting the hair in the food. No one in our party had long black hair. Even when we tried to say we just wanted the refund the owner continued to tell us to call the police so they could "dna test the hair". When we finally did call the police which we thought was absolutely ridiculous the guy stated saying how the police would keep us safe even know no one was getting aggressive but the owner. As we knew would happen the police arrived and could not do anything about it, and when they told the owner it was a civil thin he got pissed and was trying to get us in trouble even though we said to forget it because he clearly wasn't going to do anything for their mistake. They didn't even offer us a refund for the food they forgot to give us. I can promise we will never eat at this place again!!!!!! ABSOLUTELY DISGUSTING!!!!! read more

Yikes. Let me preface this review by saying we ordered on New Years Eve. So I expected SOME level of chaos. But any good Chinese/Japanese restaurant should be well-staffed and prepared for the New Years Eve rush. We put in our order at around 7:15 and were told it would be about 1.5 hours, which I sort of expected. We walked into a scenario of young kids managing the front of the house (I would say 18 or under), calling out numbers for pick-up orders and no one was responding. They seemed so unorganized. When we approached the desk, the girl at the register was on the phone taking an order, seemed confused, said "um, hold on" and went to hand the phone to another kid (without putting it on mute or anything) and said "can you give him a total and time?" to which the other kid took the phone and said "we can call you back with a total." They hung up and, while surrounded by other customers, said "tell him it'll take 5 hours, HAHAHAHAHA!" Really? That's how you treat customers when they can't hear you? Then someone finally looked up at us and said "are you being helped yet?" Obviously not... So the young girl proceeded to ask me for my order number. Um, what? "I wasn't given one." She rolled her eyes. Really?? Then asked for my phone number and started sorting through the 8 take-out bags on the counter (which clearly didn't belong to anyone currently waiting for their orders because the staff was all jacked up). Then she said, "I guess it isn't ready yet". Okay, it's now 8:50, so it's been an hour and half. We waited for about another 10 minutes and got our food and left. Fast forward to getting home, we opened the bag and there was an error with one of our rolls, I specifically asked for no roe and there it was, gleaming orange all over my california roll. So I called the restaurant back and the girl answered, I explained the situation. She said, "Oh, sorry about that, hang on just a second" handed the phone to the other kid (again) and he answered asking what the problem was. She couldn't even explain it to him, I had to repeat myself. He said "would you like a credit on your receipt or would you like us to make you another?" I wanted my sushi so I obviously opted for the latter. He responded "okay, we'll have that ready for you in just a minute." We get back in the car, go back to the restuarant, walk in and it's a whole new group of staff, now all adults. The young girl and guy are no where to be found. They ask if they can help me, I told them I just called and am waiting for a remake of my California roll. They all looked confused. Come on, now. So I explain again, and one of them goes to the sushi chef and asks him and he shakes his head, never made it. URGH! So now we're waiting for them to make it. As we're waiting, there are two women waiting for an order also. I hear one of them call over an employee, receipt in hand and proceeds to say something to the extent of "this is the third time I've come here and all three times, there have been issues with my order." In my head I'm thinking, "why would you come back after the first?!" Then we watched another young employee rush by an empty table, knock over a bottle of soy sauce onto the table and tablecloth, uprighted the bottle and kept on walking to get a pen to take another table's order. Never even cleaned up the mess. Good grief. Finally our corrected roll is finished, we took it, and left. My husband then overheard one of the older employees ask another "Did they pay for that?" This place is a class act. And on top of everything, the sushi was flavorless, the rice was mushy, and the edamame was overcooked and way undersalted. We won't be going back. read more

I ordered delivery at 8:00. I had to call to find out where it is. She told me on the way. It arrived at 9:15 - COLD! I called back and she said they were closed. I said you don't close until 9:30. She spoke to someone and they said they would remake our dinner and redeliver it. It is now 10:00 - do you really think I am going to get my dinner. AND, they have already charged my credit card. If you are craving Chinese - go someone place else!! read more

Very good Chinese food with a sushi bar. Had the gyoza and crab Rangoon then a few rolls of sushi. The inside is clean and nice and the staff was super friendly. Will be going back for sure and also doing take out (they also deliver. read more

Ii had the. Mai tai and scorpion bowl & they both taste weird. I requested to have my scorpion bowl fire lighted the guy yelled at me. I ordered house rice and was it was. Bland disgusting the shrimp with broccoli was ok. The only safe thing to get here is the sushi. read more

Good food and friendly service. Sushi was delicious! Small yet modern atmosphere offers Japanese and Chinese cuisine at a reasonable price point. read more

I had to post an update since my last review. The last several months this place has gotten so busy that things have slowly gone down hill. Don't get me wrong the food is still very tasty but there are issues. Honestly I don't think the staff can handle how busy it now is. There seems to be less meat and more vegetables. No matter what dish the onions and peppers are always raw. You would think Sizzling chicken the vegetables would be cooked from all that heat but no they were raw. Only two pieces of pork in the Pork Lo Mein. The prices are a little on the high side but when you get two pieces of pork and all noodles the price is crazy. Same issue with other meat dishes less meat more vegetables. The last two times our take out order had very little duck sauce. This last time barely enough for three people for a large order. Our last order they forgot to pack the white rice and we had a gluten free dish that was not gluten free and our family member got sick. They need to hire more people and the manager needs to pay more attention to what is going on in the kitchen. read more

Talk about a hairy situation. My family and I placed a large (and expensive) take out order on Father's Day. We found hair in two different dishes. Long. Black. Hair. I called the restaurant to let them know and they didn't even offer an apology. The woman who answered my call said she'd tell the kitchen staff. That's it. We threw out the food--it was just too gross. Although we've been Iron Chef customers for many years, we won't be returning. Not even if they start wearing hair nets. read more

This place would get zero stars if that were possible. We came in on July 4th and apparently inconvenienced the staff from watching TV in the dining room... because despite being literally the only two customers in the restaurant, once we were seated the staff vacated the dining room and we were never served. We sat there for 10 minutes and then left, fuming. So much for wanting something OTHER THAN hamburgers at a crappy holiday barbecue... read more

Be weary on delivery, first order was free, second order entailed a $12 fee for ~13 min drive, 10mile trip, even though the brochure states delivery to the town further than me. That ended a repeat customer pretty quick. read more

Good to excellent food, fast service. Good quality. Great quality Sushi! Very friendly staff! The only caveat is: If you have a food allergy to nuts, don't eat there. We ate there 5 times without issues, the 6th time we as usual notified them of a peanut allergy, asked once and then asked again specifically about peanuts. Both times we were assured there are no peanuts in the requested dish. A family member developed an acute anaphylactoid reaction within 10 minutes of consuming the dish and when we called again after that they stated that there were peanuts in the dish we ordered. Yes, eating out in places that cook with nuts is risky for people with allergies but one can usually trust 2 rounds of specific questioning for peanut content. The issue we had was that we were told twice that there were no peanuts, then were told that there were peanuts in the dish we ordered after an allergic reaction became apparent. read more

Hi again. So I just tried Gourmet Garden. AWFUL!! It was sooo bad it made me realize how GOOD Iron Chef really is. There is no other Chinese restaurant in the Danvers, Middleton, Topsfield, Peabody area that can even hold a candle to Iron Chef. Also Lee is a super nice guy who goes outta his way to provide great service. They've remodeled the interior and did a really nice job too. read more

I was surprised to read some of the negative reviews because I went here for lunch after a cut at Salon Oasis next door and I love the sushi. I agree the person who took my order could have been a little more friendly. I changed my mind and decided to eat there, even though the place was completely empty, but I just got a sense that I annoyed him when I said I'll eat there instead. But, who knows, maybe I was just being paranoid. I ended up getting spicy tuna, shrimp, and salmon & avocado sushi and the rice was soft and just overall very fresh. I'll give the guy the benefit of the doubt, maybe he was having a bad day but it really didn't bother me once I started eating that delicious sushi! I'll definitely return to get sushi here next time I'm in the area. read more

a place that serves sushi and chinese food? i am always a bit skeptical. i came here for a light dinner following a maple sugaring tour event a few miles north. the place was fairly reasonable price and food quality wise. for dinner, my three friends and i ate pan-asian food - one ordered thai curry, another the sashimi plate, and i split the shumai appetizer and sweet n sour eggplant with another friend. The eggplant was tasty and addictive, but the shumais may have been frozen food. Oh well, for our purpose of satisfying immediate hunger, Iron Chef did just that. read more

Was over at Honda North paying for my new car when I realized how late it was and decided to grab a bite with my daughter before heading home. We ordered a miso soup, salt & pepper chicken wings, and yang chow fried rice. The miso soup fell short, with too much seaweed and a very bland dashi. The chicken wings were cooked very well with salt, garlic and peppers. The yang chow fried rice was one of the best I've had in a suburban chinese joint in a long time. If my son was with me, we would have tried the sushi.. but my daughter is not as big an eater, so we played it safe. I will be going back often, well at least every 5000 miles for oil changes :) read more

I love their Sushi here. I really enjoy their Roll B, Crab Ragoon, and Egg Rolls. Everything else that I've had from Iron Chef is also good. After being exposed to countless chinese restaurants during my time at college, I can say this place has really good food compared to all the rest, and they almost never miss when it comes to quality. The only reason they don't get a 5 out of 5 is because they had a streak of telling me the food would be ready in 15-20 mins, but I would arrive when it should have been ready, and I waited another 20-30 mins on top of what they told me. Otherwise, great food and people. read more

This is a bit of a drive for me, but the large portions, cheap prices, large variety in the menu, and of course, great food keeps me coming back read more

Food was reasonably priced, and good sized portions. Crab Rangoon's were very tasty.
