    Hitachi scallops with fried rice.
    Tony M.

    Not bad at all. A little on the pricey side if you are not here for lunch. Easyto get in and out of. Parking was good. Seats were new and in good condition.

    First time here and the service was great! Ordered the Gyoza and Hibachi Shrimp. Gyoza was excellent! Shrimp was cooked perfectly with a tasty sauce, veges and rice were very good! Definitely coming back!

    chicken hibachi lunch
    L M.

    went here for lunch today based on reviews and because I have wanted sushi all week. Spicy tuna roll was not spicy, but tasted good. Rice was good. Veggies were cooked perfectly. I didn't care for the chicken or the sauce on it, althougth the same sauce was on the veggies and it was fine. Fried rice was decent. Would go back to try other sushi rolls. I'd take my daughter and let her try a kid's plate, too, since it's only $5. Good food portioning for a lunch plate. Spent about $11 (w discount) for sushi roll and hibachi chicken meal. this is worth it for lunch and a second visit, but I think i might be disappointed for dinner, unless perhaps the portion was a dinner sized portion. Sometimes you don't know with these places, the portion may be the same and different price only - for lunch and dinner. photos attached. If i had the hibachi again, i would ask for no sauce on my veggies and meat or get the veggie plate only. It was a slightly sweet sauce, so some might like it. I prefer savory foods. the miso soup was much better than expected. had a nice amount of mushrooms and green onions in it and it was not too salty, like some chain places. Was perfect in light of the rainy weather.

    Dinner bento (orange chicken)
    Jina L.

    I've been here once for dinner and ordered take out the second time for dinner and I enjoyed their food both times. I usually order their dinner bento box which comes with steamed rice or fried rice, choice of meat, 2 California sushi rolls, 1 egg roll, 2 fried dumplings and it comes with miso soup and salad. For $10.95 it's really not that bad and you get a bit of everything and it fill you up. I love their salad dressing which is this refreshing sesame ginger sauce. Their miso soup is not too salty or bland, has the right amount of seaweed and chunks of tofu. I've tried their steak, yummi chicken (deep fried) and orange chicken (deep fried). They were all pretty good and orange chicken & yummi chicken taste a bit similar. Overall, it's pretty clean inside and service is quick. If you are in the mood for some asian food and you want something quick and easy but also freshly cooked I would recommend this place.

    Recently visited Zen Steak and Sushi and it was an overall good experience. Our waiter was…read moreattentive and our food was hot and fresh. I ordered the NY steak and chicken dinner and it was pretty good. The rice was a bit dryer than I like but it wasn't too bad. The sushi menu was extensive with so many great options to choose from. The restaurant was bright and inviting. We would definitely go back again.

    For our first time trying Zen, I'll give it a 5 star review…read more We came here for date night tonight on a Wednesday night and it was perfectly not crowded. The host greeted us quickly, sat us, and we got our drink orders pretty immediately I ordered an eel roll because when I asked the waiter about the raw sushi rolls that are wrapped in radish/cucumber rather than rice and seaweed he said it was only a special roll? Whatever that means I also ordered shrimp hibachi dinner while my husband ordered the NY strip dinner. We decided to dine in rather than sit around the hibachi area The restaurant was beautiful inside, high ceilings, clean, and modern with bar seating and sushi bar seating When I got the eel roll, the first thing I noticed was how there was barely any eel in there compared to other sushi restaurants I've been to (which has been all over the states). But it did taste pretty fresh so next time I'll dine in just for sushi and will update my review The hibachi dinner was great. It wasn't super salty like other hibachi restaurants. I felt like my husband's steak was a bit over cooked but he enjoyed his meal Besides the skimping out on eel, the only problem I had was waiting longer than usual for our hibachi dinner to come out. I was expecting our food to be nice and hot but it was actually partially cold like it was sitting in the back for a bit We were starving so at this point we were scarfing our food down. I will be back for more sushi and to try their noodle dish!

I used my Yelp search for a sushi spot and actually looked at the pics to see if the rolls looked good hahaha. I found Tokyo in this search and let me tell youuuu.... It was sooo good. Upon walking up, they have a huge menu on the outside window, so you can look at it before walking in or if you are passing by. Inside there is room to eat-in. Behind the counter there is a small section where the sushi rolls are made. You can also see the guys on the hibachi grill preparing food. I ordered a shrimp tempura roll without cucumber, a Tokyo roll without avocado, and the steak and shrimp entree. They give you enough seafood sauce in the bag, but if you want more, they have their sauces over by the drink station. Noooow let's get into this foooood. I looked at it and knew it was going to be really good.... And looks were NOT deceiving. Both of the rolls were PERFECT!! I was actually mad that I didn't get more, instead of getting the entree lol. The tempura salmon ontop of the Tokyo roll was sooo crunchy. Oh my!! It was soooo good!! I'm only giving 4-stars because the steak and shrimp entree was very bland. Next time I will get extra rolls rather than the entree. Oh and the prices are realllllyyyy good too. I will definitely be back for more rolls!! If you like sushi... they have a nice selection and you can watch the gentleman make them!!
