Ate lunch here today and really enjoyed the food. We had sushi and it was fresh and tasty. Service was good and our waitress was very attentive. This place is in a strip mall, so don't expect some elaborate decor. Four stars vs five stars because it is fairly expensive for what you get. Give it a chance! read more

Iron Chef is now out go-to sushi restaurant in Suffolk. It is clearly a family-run business with the kids helping out in the dining area in the evening after doing their homework. The prices for sushi rolls and appetizers are reasonable. Don't miss the daily specials on the white board - when I've tried them, they were magnificent! Service is always friendly and attentive without being intrusive. Ambience is comfortable with about eight four-tops with one larger private table in the front that can accommodate a party of about eight. read more

Wasn't impressed at all. Ordered hibachi to go. Hibachi had no vegetables or soup. It was just chicken and something that was supposed to be fried rice but was just a greasy tasteless mess. Chicken had a weird sauce on it and yum yum sauce was not yummy. Never again! read more

I'm not sure how the food is, I stopped in for a bite and was greeted by the take out only sign. I went to the Mexican place a few doors down instead. Take out only, takes away from the whole dining out experience. read more

Iron Chef - Take out only - Sushi Bars Near Me - Suffolk, Virginia

Pros: The rice and the soup was good. The wait time for food was quick. Cons: All hibachi entrees (verified with server) are covered in a sauce that makes the flavors of the food indistinguishable from the sauce. No dipping sauces were provided such as ginger sauce or yum yum sauce. When I handed the server back a full plate, she never asked if anything if was wrong with it and never asked how our food was. I will not be back based on this experience. read more

The food is always freshly made. The prices are fantastic. It doesn't make you feel heavy it's light. Also we usually get one meal to go with rice for each of us and it's more than we can eat. read more

Not bad at all. A co-worker of mine loves this place! The the first thing I noticed is how clean the place is. Next thing I noticed is how comparable the prices are for made-to-order sushi lunch. My co-worker had 3 rolls for $7.95 which came with a soup or salad. I had the lunch Chirashi which I believe wa $10.95 with soup or salad. The Chirashi came on a plate (rice with sashimi on top). It was all so very good especially the tuna & salmon. Those two cuts of fish tasted the most fresh. Typically, the Chirashi I've had at other establishments is served in a bowl with additional fixings(pickled daikon, seaweed salad, cucumber, etc...) along with the fish. However, what I received was fine. It's all about the sashimi anyway! Rice was good and one can't go wrong with rice seasoning! read more

Food took 45 minutes to get to us. Soup came first. Then rice was delivered 30 minutes later before the chicken teriyaki, which came 15 minutes later. This was at 1130 am. Way too slow. Will never be back. read more

A kid name Kobe was nice to me and my family he did everything for us he gave us the best service I ever met

After trying several other sushi places in the area I have finally found a place that meets my expectations. Much better than Sakura express and Tokyo grill which were so bad I chose to keep my opinion to myself because I don't like to bad mouth restaurants. However this was my last shot a good sushi in the area and I'm so happy I grabbed a decidedly small order to try things out. I will be back very soon to redeem my small order after playing it safe from wasting money and food on inedible sushi and other fare and will be a regular! Today I tried out the clear soup, fried rice, shrimp tempura roll, spicy salmon and eel roll. I also had a few pieces of white tuna sashimi. All were up to par. And for me after the countless bad experiences I've been having. That's all I could ask for. read more

I popped in here for lunch today. I'm new to Suffolk and looking for a nice Sushi spot. I'm so happy to say, I found it! This is a tiny spot, but not uncomfortably so. The tables are spaced nicely apart. It was nice. I ordered the Super Sashimi lunch portion. It was served with salad or miso soup, the soup was good the fish was fresh and delicious. I also ordered two rolls. They were prepared well and I enjoyed them. I'm happy to report that I will return with some of my friends who also enjoy sushi! read more

Have been semi regular customer so I went up there tonight. After being seated the server was quick to bring my ice tea and menu. So I sat and waited and waited. Well she finally came and took my order. You could tell she was new. When my food arrived it was sizzling hot, oh so good except for the lobster that was in it, tasted funny, everything else was delicious. I noticed the server went around and asked other patrons how there food was but not me hmmmmmm . Oh well Iron Chef was clean as always and a nice atmosphere really nothing to write home about but nice and not over done in Japanese nic nacks as in some oriental establishments Missed the server who usually works there. Oh well maybe next time. read more

Iron Chef - Seafood teriyaki - Sushi Bars Near Me - Suffolk, Virginia

The food is great. The hostess works very hard and covers all the tables on her own it dreams. The service is a little slow because they are making the sushi fresh and it's a single man behind the sushi bar but the food is great. Truly can't stress that enough. My only wish is that they would have a larger business so they could sit more and serve faster but it's a wonderful place and maybe that's something they can't help. It's convenient from where I live too to grab fresh sushi within minutes when I'm craving. read more

The best sushi I've had in Suffolk, the most expensive as well but it's worth it. The serving sizes for the entrees are smaller then the competition but the quality is significantly higher. I've only ordered carry out but the staff has always been friendly and my order has never been messed up, which if you've ever done carry out in Suffolk is a rarity. I always just pick three random rolls and have never been disappointed, I guess their biggest selling point is their consistency in quality which is also a rarity these days. read more

My husband and I put in an offer on a house down the street from here and HAD to check out the neighborhood sushi joint first. We went in at about 7pm on a Wednesday and the place was packed, that's always a good sign, right? We were famished and ordered everything in sight. They had a menu of speciality rolls that was buy 2 get one free, pretty great deal! We got three really good sized rolls (the Angel was my fav, can't remeber the other two) for $22. We also tried the gyoza, which was pretty good. It will definitely be a regular place for my husband and I when we move. The only thing I would recommend that they improve is the ambience. It was weirdly quiet in there given the number of people. A place called Iron Chef should have a little more life! read more

This is probably my favorite sushi bar I've ever been to. The staff is friendly and attentive, and the food is excellent. A true Suffolk gem. read more

Oh my how times have changed! Iron Chef has revamped menu to VERY limited lunch selection, you must request sashimi at lunch and they hardly had anything but standard tuna, whitefish, tamago, etc. No eel, red snapper, yellowfin, etc. blasé faire! Disappointing. read more

Love this place, for what it is. Though not comparable to say, the sushi in San Francisco, Iron Chef does little Virginia well. To me the sushi is better suited to someone new to it, versus a long time fan who has tried everything. Service is always prompt. Prices are good for sushi, with the lunch menu not to be beat, though the Kitchen Entrees are lacking (it irritated me that they do not serve the Tonkatsu with what I thought was mandatory shredded cabbage.) read more

Nice restaurant, the sushi is good and the prices are reasonable. I had some of the sushi, the rolls, and cooked food. I tried to sample many different areas of the menu and I was impressed with both the food and the service. I recommend this place and will be back again when I'm in the area. read more

Great place to have lunch meetings with 1-4 people. Price is right on for what you get and very clean. Downside: small resturant and lacking enthusiastic staff. read more

This is the worse sushi place I've ever eaten at! The deep fried roll was not cooked enough and was mushy. If you think it's good you don't know what sushi is suppose to taste like! It's making me give a rating and doesn't deserve a star! read more

Good sushi-my husband liked the hibachi too. Great spot for lunch. The lunch special for their sushi rolls is the best, makes me forget there's no order online option. Guess I'll just get over my phone anxiety. Cause it's worth it read more

Brought my grandfather today who was in town visiting. The sushi was amazing and my grandfather loved his as well and loved the taste of the wasabi. Great service would come back again. We got tuna roll, spicy tuna roll, California roll and shrimp tempura roll. All delicious ! read more

The service is very friendly and I LOVE their sushi. Also, after your meal they give you free pineapple slices...very yummy addition to your meal! I ordered the Dragon Roll, but I didn't like eel...they had no problem substituting it for what I wanted. They're affordable too! read more

The service is always good and sometimes great. The menu is broad but we usually do the by 2 get one free and wife gets Habichi. It's the best sushi yoi can find here in Suffolk. If your looking for good sushi and good service check it out. Also I like how late they stay open. read more

Great little Sushi place. Very clean and inexpensive. Employees was very pleasant and friendly. Well return again.

My favorite place for sushi close to home. The buy two rolls get one free is awesome!!

I'll be the fist to say that I am a bit particular when it comes to sushi. It's one of those foods that to me I would rather have done right or not at all. This place is a not at all. some of the worst sushi I've had in Hampton roads, and the worst I've had in Suffolk. I would have given it one star except the staff has always been very nice and my wife likes the dinner box with gyoza and teriyaki steak. She doesn't even eat the California roll that come with it. If you want decent sushi and the wife wants something cooked in central Suffolk go to Sapporo Japanese Steak House & Sushi Bar. If you wants truly good sushi in central Suffolk (or most of Suffolk) go to Sushi Aka. I stopped going here years ago, but a pregnant wife talked me into trying it again. Many of the review refer to it being cheap, but I spent $60 this night. Didn't even eat half of my sushi. Went home and an hour later made a sandwich. read more

Top notch I enjoyed myself, great food, great preparation of the food, and the wait staff was very friendly and know their menu and dishes. The beer selections could be better but with the food they offer I didn't mind. Defiantly go here if you like sushi and Japanese food. read more

Fantastic sushi but the experience was lacking. Every sushi restaurant I've been too starts you off with soup and salad. I mean, it's a given that salad and soup are brought to the table. Apparently not the case at iron chef. I had to ask for the 'free' salad. I'll stick with koi or nana. read more

Been coming to iron Chef for many years usually pleased with the service and food it is the only sushi place of quality within the area.WILL NOT BE COMING BACK.Tried to order the lunch special at 2:45 lunch prices are good until 3:00 was denied service. read more

This place has some of the best Sushi I have ever had. They have a great lunch special 2 rolls and a salad/soup for $6.95/ 3 rolls and salad/soup for $9.95. It is a small little place next to a Subway in a strip mall, but from all the different places I have tried, I keep coming back here. Pass the word! read more

This sushi joint is pretty good and hits the spot when I don't feel like driving all the way to Sushi Aka. Service is prompt and the prices are reasonable. read more
