    The beef pepper lunch was yummy, but nothing special. It's just fried rice that you have to stir up. You can add more toppings, but it does add up. I do wish they give you more beef. You place your order at the kiosk, grab buzzer, & have a seat at any table available. They bring you your order & ask if you want them to mix it up for you.

    beef curry

    We went here for our weekly date night and we thought it was a terrific concept! I got the beef curry and my partner got the pepper beef, daring, I know. Cooking the meat in the cast iron bowl was novel and the staff offered to do it for us if we felt uncomfortable doing it. The beef was of good quality for the price and the curry sauce was quite tasty. Each plate is something of a blank slate without add-on toppings such as egg and various vegetables. By default they only come with meat, onions, rice, and corn. The sauces at the table were also quite tasty. The service was outstanding. There was a line out the door the whole time we were there and it was always moving quickly. Despite the crowd, the staff brought us our food with haste and made sure our needs were met. We will certainly be returning.

    Beef Pepper Rice

    Despite the chaos of a Friday night right after open, Pepper Lunch exceeded all expectations. I enjoyed the kiosk ordering and imagine once the hype dies down a bit ordering that way will be perfect. There was someone guiding us to an open table near the front, which was very efficient from what we could tell. We sat near the ordering kiosks and it seemed no one waited for a table for too long. Food took about 10 minutes to come out. I really liked my beef pepper rice. I wish the egg had come with it, but it's definitely an important add on -- get the egg. The sauces at the table were more than sufficient, and I really liked the garlic soy. I'd say the beef amount was too small for me, and next time I'd consider getting extra beef. Everything was cooked nicely and was a good amount of food for money, and our drinks were kept topped up by the staff despite the busy evening. Overall, I'm looking forward to returning. I think I'd like to try one of the pasta dishes next.

    I've been anxiously waiting for this to open. I went to Pepperlunch for the first time in Hong Kong decades ago and fell in love. You come in and order through a tablet kiosk, given a buzzer, and then you get seated. My family and I were invited for a soft opening dinner. Grand opening is this weekend. We got to try the popular but traditional pepper beef and the kimchi pepper beef. My kids had the pasta and chicken and the karaage and fries. We also ordered drinks: fountain lemonade and the dragonfruit drink (highly recommend). Sides I ordered were regular French fries, sweet potato fries and the onion rings. They were all the right amount of crispiness! The pepper beef dishes were just as I remembered. Everything just melted in my mouth. My server mixed my dish and helped to cook it for me.The foot stayed super hot and fresh on the sizzling hot plate. What was lacking were the kids' dishes. The pasta was plain and needing the garlic soy sauce and the sweet sauce on the table. The karaage was too hard and not tender and juicy enough inside. They forgot my onion rings, but they were delivered after we finished our meal. Service was great and friendly. Decor and ambience was clean, fresh, and modern. You're going to need some patience waiting for your food, but it's worth it. They're still working out the kinks.

    Love the food.. i order the beef curry tepanyaki ..it was really good .they serve with pipping hot skillet and the beef and rice with ingredients in it and muxed it up...will come bck 4 sure

    Onion rings
    Jessica M.

    I was stoked to see this new food spot! I came the week after the grand opening and it was super busy, as expected. Food was pretty pricey, with us spending around $80 for 2 bowls and 2 sides. I don't mind spending on good food at allll but I don't think this was worth it. Onion rings were really good and sweet potato fries were just okay (more like wedges and not seasoned at all). The bowls are super customizable but with every ingredient costing $2, it adds up. Why are things like green onions $1.99? :( On top of that, the only seasoning that can actually be tasted is pepper so overall it was pretty bland. Sad to say that this did not meet our expectations.

    Beautiful Restaurant with great quality food. Service I thought needed a bit work as it was a bit slow however they just have opened so that will probably improve over the next few months. I got the classic beef, rice, corn, green onions and added mushrooms to my hot plate bowl. The concept is extremely cool as the food cooks right in front of you and the flavor of the beef is extremely great. Our waiter Kaya was also really kind. We will definitely be back although for opening week lines to get inside have been extremely long.

    Finally open! This is a Japanese classic that used to exist in Houston, but closed down eventually so I'm so excited to see it re-entering the market. The beef bowl comes out in a sizzling, hot platter with rice and corn and green onions. I'm a fan of dosing it in the garlic and sweet sauce. You can also easily customize it with any extra add-ons. We ended up going during the grand opening and it was a blast. The one thing I didn't love was how cooked the karaage as it felt like it was left in the fryer a little too long, but due to the fact that it was their grand opening, I'm not gonna blame them for that until I've had it again. Their mascot is super cute. This fits perfectly with the coco ichibanya across the way. Another thing to note is that whenever you order chicken or onion rings you're able to get a sauce on the side for free and the options they have are kimchi, Sriracha, and ketchup.

    My family and I decided to try this place for lunch. The ambiance is really upbeat. The servers were really nice and helpful, especially Jade and Miko. The food taste was good, but the price is a bit high for the portions you receive.

    The taste was exactly like in Japan, which was such a pleasant surprise. My son absolutely loved it! And for the price, getting this level of steak quality for just $16 is really impressive. Definitely a great value.

    Beef Pepper Rice - Add on: egg and cabbage mix Shrimp Aglio Olio Pasta Both were delicious! I love food served sizzling on a stone pan. Service - so friendly and service oriented. Good food and good service makes dining experience, Great! Will definitely be coming back to try other items on the menu.

    The venue is super clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. The food came out really quickly, and since it was my first time, they kindly showed me how to cook it, which made the experience even better. Several staff members checked on me throughout the meal, and everyone was so warm and welcoming. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!

We have never had an underwhelming roll or hibachi dish. What's disappointing is the overall experience. On the previous visit, we commented to each other that we were in and out in under an hour. During our last visit, the server asked us to either finish or move since they had customers waiting. It's not like we were sitting there all night - we were there just over an hour at the time. As other reviews pointed out, the chefs hardly interact or put on the "show" you'd expect from hibachi. I'm sure they've served a thousand tables, but they have to keep in mind that dinner may be a customer's first experience. Ours made a volcano, but was otherwise preoccupied cooking to-go orders. If I'm spending $80 per person on what should be a nice meal, I expect to have a good show along with the food - and I should never feel rushed to leave.

    Ok reservation was for Sunday @ 3:30PM…read more When you make a reservation they don't tell you this, but your chef won't be in until 30-45 minutes after. You'll get drinks and be offered apps first which could take 30/45 minutes. If you are in a rush my advise is to make reservation earlier. Now food wise it was delicious. Brian our chef was super awesome. Did all kinds of tricks and cooked our food perfectly. It was pricey but worth it. The group all shared everything. For apps we had the edamame and the pork dumplings. Dumplings were amazing. For hibachi We tried the fillet, the scallops, the shrimp, the chicken, the lobster, the veggies. Seriously everything was good. Like I said, the only downfall is if you are expecting to have dinner at your reservation time that won't happen. It will Be 45 to an hour before you do. So worth it. We shall be back.

I would say this ramen was more like instant ramen style and the noodles were on the softer side. They do have a nice happy hour, though!

I shared a couple sushi rolls with my friend and those were actually solid. Plus, they have pickled wasabi, which I always ask for at sushi places, so that was a nice touch!

The hibachi experience at Jinbeh is top-tier. We recently went with our family in December and had a blast. Our chef Gill was funny, skilled, and had the whole table laughing. The kids absolutely loved the volcano trick and sushi rolls. It's dinner and a show every single time. If you want a Japanese steakhouse in Frisco that actually delivers entertainment and amazing food, this is it. But the sushi in Frisco doesn't get any better than this either. We like getting rolls with our hibachi experience. Everything is incredibly fresh, from the salmon sashimi to the specialty rolls. The dragon roll is a must-try. My favorite is lobster volcano roll. Our family has gone for birthdays before. The birthday song, a dessert, and the chef even did extra tricks for her table. If you need a birthday dinner spot in Frisco or a graduation party venue, Jinbeh handles large groups effortlessly. We had 12 people one time and the staff seated us together without a hitch. A couple of other things worth mentioning. The lunch specials are a fantastic value. Generous portions at a very reasonable price. I hear their catering in Frisco is excellent and the sushi platters are a huge hit. Whether you're coming from Plano or Allen, Jinbeh is worth the short drive. It's the kind of place where the staff remembers your name, the food is consistently excellent, and you leave with leftovers and a smile. Easily the best Japanese food in Frisco and one of the best Asian restaurants in DFW. Highly recommend -- we will absolutely be back.
