Miyabi Jr express located in Lexington, is closest hibachi to Chapin with a 31 minute drive. Being that the drive over and back for Chapin residents will take you hour minimum is unfortunate. This restaurant is set up just like the one in Florence we enjoyed except there is more indoor seating table/booths. Our food was made to order with no complaints by me. The pricing is adequate for the portion received. The staff on night we arrived were socially pleasant. Other than the distance the other negative for me is that they close at 9pm on weekends. You be the judge if this is early or about right. read more

An express take out version of Miyabi hibachi down the street. Their prices aren't cheap, but their Japanese entrees are really good. Their menu is pretty diverse as it has other options besides hibachi, such as chicken katsu. I ordered the chicken and filet mignon hibachi combo for my first time experience. The chefs cooked it on the grill in the back, so everything comes out fresh. The taste was as if you were eating it at a sit down hibachi restaurant, so the $20 per plate was definitely worth it but not cheap. My filet was cooked medium rare and came out the way requested. The sauces and seasoning weren't over powering and definitely not overly salty compared to other hibachi restaurants I've gone to. It's a great portion size too, with a scoop of friend rice, veggies and your protein choice. The staff were friendly as well. As a first timer, I wasn't sure about the menu items, so the lady up front gave me some recommendations and explained what the entrees were and what they came with for me to make my decision. There are dozens of tables and television for a dining experience, but it seems take out is what most people have been doing from what I've seen. Definitely will be back! read more

If the condition of the men's room is indicative of the overall concern for hygiene, this is NOT a safe place to eat. I'm astonished that even the staff are willing to use the restroom. It is filthier than most gas station restrooms: what appears to be fecal matter on the wall, blood splatter on the wall, gunk & grime everywhere. This restroom has not had a proper cleaning in a long time. We won't be dining here again. read more

Miyabi Jr Express - Japanese Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

Miyabi Jr. in Lexington, SC is a wonderful eatery for quick, delicious hibachi. Plenty of seating and good lighting and friendly staff. The cooks are in the back on the flat top griddle expertly preparing your favorite dishes just like at a Japanese steakhouse. We visited and got our food quickly with no mistakes on our order. The portion sizes are perfect and make sure you don't leave hungry and at a great price point. Also plenty of parking options. Definitely come stop in. read more

Pretty good but they're adding sugar or something awkwardly sweet to the rice. Maybe that's what the locals like?

Delicious food every time. Portions are always on the money. Fast service. Clean restaurant fresh food.

Amazing delicious food, fresh everytime!! And such great pricing. Love the selection on the menu as well

Not bad, stopped by for an early dinner. Very clean establishment and nice friendly staff and great service. Outstanding price for the portions. Got rave reviews from co-workers the next day, when I had leftovers for lunch. Many compliments on the smell and presentation of the food. Will definitely be revisiting soon!!! read more

Great service and Food is good too!! Great employee at Register named Mason!!! He needs a raise!

Love love love!!! Hibachi chicken and spring rolls are delicious! I come here faithfully and the service is awesome and they are fast!

Moderately good food with large portions. But this sushi... The price of the food is high with a two person meal running us nearly $50. I realize this is going to sound rough, but I have a hard time stomaching being shown a screen requesting 15%, 20%, or 25% tips in a restaurant in which you order at a counter, seat yourself, and wait for a number to be called to retrieve your food. The ambiance is nice if you favor spending the day in the DMV - "Number 265...265"! read more

Miyabi Jr Express - The California Roll. Is this the Oakland version? - Japanese Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

Food & Service was great as always. Teriyaki chicken & shrimp and favorite. Efficient & fast operation.

The chicken was awful and very squishy. Service was good but no point when food wasn't good at all. Won't be going back at all.

The food is great as always! Love that we have the option of Miyabi Jr vs going to the sit down Miyabi where they cook in front of you. This option helps with the cost, which even the take out is high these days. Thankfully portions are so large, it's easy to share a meal and make it more cost efficient. Not a fan of the checkout at Miyabi Jr where they flip around the screen for you to sign when using your a card. The prices are high enough already, I don't believe I'll be tipping the person behind the register when I have to wait at the counter and carry my own food and make my own drink, and THEN go sit down. What am I tipping the person taking the order for, they never come from behind the counter? The tip begging needs to stop at the check out counter at Miyabi Jr. I want to emphasize that the food is great, however, asking for a tip from every single customer at a self serve restaurant is ridiculous and way over the top- to the point of annoying if you ask me! The lowest tip option is 20%! So, when I order my steak bowl @ $17.99, I owe 8% SC State Sales tax, then another 20% for a tip for someone to take my order?? Nearly 30% more than the sticker price !! No thanks, I'll be using the "no tip" option folks. Starbucks and other fast food places took advantage of our kindness during Covid with their flip around screens asking for tips. Sorry, but with the cost of living as high as it is, I won't be throwing out any extra money to fast food facilities for tips on services I didn't receive. When I'm my own waitress, carrying MY food to the table and refilling MY own drink.... I'll TIP myself, and my tip money will stay in MY pocket. read more

For what this place is, express hibachi and sushi, you're going to be happy. All the food is fresh, the soup is always hot, and the portions are very comparable to what you'd get for double the price at a formal hibachi joint. I've never had any issues with how my filet is cooked (always medium rare, every time) and I've never had any issues with the service. My go to order is the shrimp and filet with an onion soup, and I can never finsih it all, AND it's under $20. The staff is on par with a typical "fast casual" eatery, they're not working for tips so don't expect them to kiss your ass as they work. Their dine in service is suitable for covid protocol, but I usually just get take out and they're always on point there, too. If you want the flashiness and service from a formal hibachi restaurant, you're better to go elsewhere. If you want the awesome food of a formal hibachi restaurant without the price tag, you're gonna love this place. read more

Amazing food and amazing people! Get the bowls best food/price ratio. Plus ask for extra yum yum sauce.

Our family loves this place! We have had the hibachi chicken entrees and we love them. I just found out that they offer ginger sauce. That takes every to a new level of goodness! read more

While very flavorful and well seasoned, the chicken was too fatty for my taste and was an unexpected mix of white and dark meat. However, thr rice and zucchini were incredible, paired with a well made white sauce and very pleasant waitstaff. read more

Miyabi Jr Express - Teriyaki Chicken Entree - no onions - Japanese Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

The food wasn't the best but it definitely wasn't bad. The spring rolls and salad tasted great but the sushi was okay.

The food is excellent and the place is very clean and professional service...we love the teriyaki

My husband and I were hungry and needed a quick meal something other than fast food. We came across this restaurant on google maps and decided to give it a try. It's like an express hibachi. They were quick and the food was great. I had the chicken teriyaki bowl and he had shrimp and teriyaki chicken. A must-try. read more

Consistently excellent quick strip mall hibachi Japanese food. We order here frequently and I've never been disappointed.

Super good meal loved how everyone was very friendly Johnatan S was our a sever he always super helpful

Food is good. But the crew leader was getting a bit upset with customers who could not find their silverware...after he brought the food out. **The REASON: The forks (no knives) are placed inside..... of a white bag....that is FLAT....So when they bring your order to the table, they place the bag on the table along with your receipt. (And this bag ....just looks like a piece of blank paper)** My SUGGESTION: Either....Tell your guest that the fork is INSIDE of the envelope..... OR.....Have the word SILVERWARE printed on the white envelopes. I know this.....because I was one of MANY.....of those customers who couldn't find their silverware. :-) #IJS read more

Food is always amazing and quick. Cant wait till they have the condiment station back!

Loved every bit of my meal. I ordered the chicken and shrimp hibachi. Everything was fresh and hot. I would return when I'm in the area again. read more

They do an amazing job accommodating food allergies/intolerances. You can order your meat and veggies without oil/butter or sauce. I eat here at least once a week, and appreciate that they care about your health. Thank you so much! read more

I definitely recommend this spot over the actual miyabi. They been tellling the same jokes for over 20 years. Give me this spot straight to the point and the food is top tier. read more

Placed a to go order in-house and sat down to wait for my number. After 15 minutes my number was called. I promptly went to counter. At the same time of the young man handing me my order he yells to a guy who come up behind me for a call in order. I started to ask but was rudely interrupted that I would have to wait till he finished helping on the customer for the call in. EXCUSE ME?????? You called my number and had not ensured my needs were met. Just a rude young man that could care less but yet we are asked to tip at order. read more

Another restaurant my coworkers have gotten me hooked on. They lured me in with the promise of something better than Tokyo Grill. I told them they were insane, and they proved me wrong. The food is fresh and absolutely delicious. The restaurant is clean and the staff is extremely pleasant and friendly. I enjoyed dining in as a treat to myself, but the take out is just as great. I can't wait to continue sampling the rest of the menu, but with teriyaki chicken this good I know I'll always have a "usual" order. read more

Wish Chapin had a miyabi jr! Delicious every single time! Love their food and fast service read more

Miyabi Jr Express - Teriyaki Chicken , veggies, & rice! Delicious - Japanese Near Me - Lexington, South Carolina

Great food and friendly service. They have white sauce, ginger sauce, hot sauce and teriyaki sauce that you can include in your takeout. Their hot sauce is not too hot and very flavorful. Their teriyaki sauce is not too thick. I wish they had a miyabi express jr in the Irmo area. No eat in dining right now. I call ahead and pick up read more

We went there tonight and the food was ok...the problem was there was an addition charge to our card above our bill and tip. If you do go make sure to check your receipt and then make sure to check your account if you use a card...just wondering how many others have been robbed by this place...said that in a time like this after leaving a 25% tip the employees or business added to that by the price of an additional meal...be warned if you go check your receipt (which was correct) then check your account they robbed us... read more

Consistent. Quick. Delicious. Craving Miyabi's but don't want to pay the price for the "sit down--cooked in front of you experience"? Then head to Miyabi Jr. express to get the same delicious meal at half of the price. Miyabi Jr. has been a longtime favorite of mine. Quick and easy for take out or dine in. read more

Very good! Need to give more YumYum sauce. Would go again. It's very good! Would recommend to friends

Every time I go here I get the hibachi entrée. I order the steak and chicken teriyaki ( you have to ask to add the teriyaki) that's not an option on the menu board. With the hibachi vegetables, I get the Yum Yum sauce which is amazing and mix it all together so delicious. I have tried almost all of their sushi, which the only one that is really amazingly delicious is the fried shrimp one!! read more
