Chicken and shrimp combo.
Pate A.

We ordered the chicken and shrimp combo and like the others have noted, the chicken was a little dry. That's a pretty small issue though. The shrimp was tasty and rice perfect. The service was great which consisted of a person at the counter passing your plated food to you. The utensils were small plastic cheap kind. Again, a small issue. The dinning room was clean and orderly, bathrooms sufficient. $11.99 for the combo and I would say well worth the price considering a whopper combo is about the same. My wife and I split this meal so I would say it was a Win.

Steak and Shrimp Hibachi

I got the steak and shrimp which is more expensive than the chicken and got barely any steak or shrimp but my sister got a ton of chicken for less

Teriyaki steak & chicken plate.

DRY OF TOKYO I've eaten a lot of Japanese food in my life but this is clearly the worst I've ever eaten. The chicken was so dry that I decided I would leave the majority untouched. I tried several pieces hoping there were only a stray few dry pieces but each one was so so dry that they were inedible. I ordered the steak medium rare and it was served medium well. The vegetables and rice however were perfect! We asked for no onions in our vegetables and they actually charged us 50 cents each to OMIT the onions! Wait...what??!! Who charges you money to leave out food from your order?? Apparently they do! I'm definitely not coming back! I tried this restaurant at a different location 15 years ago and didn't have a good experience then. Apparently nothing has changed! Even if someone paid for my food here the next time, I still wouldn't eat it. Honestly, it was VERY disappointing! I'm gonna make the trip to Osaka Grill if I want Japanese food next time because although this place is convenient it's not worth the money or my tastebuds!

dumplings and dipping sauce
Erin H.

Well, have went to order from there and never had the. Finally i ordered, my expectations high, my thoughts of mall hibachi having my anticipation full blown!! Opened the box of the hibachi Shrimp chicken and mushrooms with extra ginger sauce on the side and it looked amazing!!!! Opened my dumplings, dried out wontons that were trying to be crispy but didn't make it, or steamed ones that were old and or cooked too long. The hibachi although in appearance looked good was actually the blandest thing I've ever eaten, I'm a food service director and been cooking for 40 years and this is the blandest thing I've ever eaten, i currently work in senior care and my food for them has more flavor. And the "fried rice" well, its as iff all this was sitting on a steam table drying out, the chicken was almost saw dust and i dont know what that ginger sauce was but the only hint of ginger is in the name, just a brown congealed tasteless something. Waited all this time for a colossal disappointment. The only thing and i mean only thing remotely good was the shrimp, firm, good tasting shrimp. Food that looked and sounded good was actually bland tasteless fake hibachi. $40 for an entree and appetizer should get one a pretty good meal. Im extremely disappointed. Tasteless things pretending to be hibachi. You should be ashamed of yourselves.

Stopped by here on my lunch break…read more Got the chicken and steak lunch special. Chicken, steak, onions, mushrooms, fried rice, and zucchini. Great steak and chicken! Rice was very good and the vegetables completed the meal. Side salad with ginger dressing was da bomb! Service was great and very quick. Restaurant was extremely clean and tidy. Will definitely be back!

It was date night for us and we figured it would be nice to enjoy the Greer Downtown on that Friday…read morenight and knew we felt like sushi. After looking online for sushi in the area, Osaka Grill popped up. Though it's a hole-in-the-wall sort of place, that's a good sign because those tend to be the gems. Not fancy, but comfortable and casual atmosphere. There are tables and booths. It was busy on this Friday night (our first time ever here). We wanted a booth instead of the tables that were close to several other tables filled with customers and they allowed us to wait by the bar/counter where we watched and also looked at the menu to decide what sushi we wanted. Once seated, we were able to order quickly getting the Happy Family, Atlanta Roll, and Alaska Roll, miso soup. They were all good! What was even more welcoming was the price - definitely a great value, which probably explained why there were plenty of carryouts/pickups. Good food, good service, and amazing price!

Osaka Grill - Take-out menu. Plenty of people picking up takeout while we were there. Can understand why.

Two stars, and I want to be fair about why…read more Ichiban Sushi advertises all-you-can-eat sushi, which sounds great until you hit the fine print: the entire table has to order it, or nobody can. I brought my almost-90-year-old father in for tempura and soup. He was not going to eat thirty dollars of raw fish, and I was not about to make him try. So the all-you-can-eat was off the table, literally, on account of him being at the table. I asked about my situation anyway. Just me ordering it, Dad having his soup. The answer was no. The reason, said out loud, was that they don't trust customers not to share. I understand the math behind that policy, I really do. But sit with what it means to open a brand-new relationship with a customer by explaining that the rule exists because you assume they'll cheat you. That's a rough note to start on. "Welcome, we don't trust you" is not a phrase that makes anyone reach for their wallet. So I went à la carte instead. Three pieces of sushi. They were fine. They were also tiny, and priced as if they were not tiny. At those prices, the only version of this meal that makes any sense is the all-you-can-eat, which, once again, I was not permitted to buy. I won't knock the food, the service, or the atmosphere. None of that was the issue. The issue is a policy built on the assumption that the person across the counter is trying to pull a fast one, held so tightly that it couldn't flex for an old man and his son having lunch. We haven't been back, and we won't be. And I'd gently suggest to the owner that when customers stop showing up, a lack of trust in those customers might be worth a second look. Trust runs both directions. So does its absence.

Listened to his explanations and wisely copied his selections, which were deleciious, nutricious, and very, very satisfying! Wrote down my menu selections for upcoming dinner plans (at Konnichiwa --one of Greer's BEST new restaurants, in my humble opinion). Next week's dinner would celebrate our 56th wedding anniversary and our daughters latest Birthday). Wife is paranoid about foreign spices and daughter about foreign diets in general- so used the recommendations from my previous lunch with ample coaxcing of the ladies; adults enjoyed hibachi shrimp bowls with corn & green beans, daughter delighted in choosing her adventurous chicken bowl. The waiter could not have been more helpful as he accomodated any and all further questions in perfect English after storing our walker nearby. This added to our carefree, and delightful Konnichiwa dining experience. We had previously been great fans of FATZ and will look forward to taking many of our visiting guests to this great Japanese replacement with newer and brighter modern lighting decor,etc.
