...... are you kidding me? This is what you get when you order miso soup? Extremely disappointing. Upon further discovery, there is no tofu in the soup. Only seaweed. read more

Shogun - Miso soup - Japanese Near Me - Casper, Wyoming

Great food and great service. It was very delicious and our server and chef were amazing. They kept us engaged and entertained. Any time we needed anything they were prompted and attentive. read more

This place truly is a hidden gem in Casper. In a town where most people grab sushi from the grocery store, the Shogun sushi bar goes above and beyond in both quality and value. Traditional sushi is a good start but if you give their specialty rolls a try prepare to be blown away by their size and presentation. The service was best we have had in Casper post COVID and the friendly staff left us looking forward to a return visit. Finally a word of advice, leave room for the deep fried cheesecake for dessert. They do not have a dessert menu but rest assured it is worth trying on your next visit! read more

There was a guy in there that gave us the hibachi experience (rafi) he was very funny and gave us a nice show. I would definitely recommend coming again. read more

Have ate here many times and it is always excellent. I could literally just eat the rice and be content. The hibachi part is super fun. From the large fire, to having you catch food and saki . Great food and ambiance read more

Shogun - a person preparing food in a restaurant - Japanese Near Me - Casper, Wyoming

Awful service, never filled our drinks or check on us. Tried to overcharge us for soft drinks instead of waters. They had manners of a Billy Goat when asked to fix their mistake. read more

Shogun, like most modern Teppanyaki grill establishments of the Rocky Mountains had its first year of hibachi excitement for the locals. If you seen it, you know it. Having food thrown at my open mouth and drinking crappy $3 cooking sake out of a food service bottle is something you do once, maybe twice if you have a sake bomb first. Only 1 to 2 tables are used at a time now with a decrease in the Wow factor. Hibachi aside, the sushi and full menu here is mostly good and some very reasonably priced. Lunch sushi deals are great. The 2 & 3 roll combo w/ miso are a great deal. The sushi & sashimi the same. Sashimi/Nigiri cuts are large and well done. What ever cleaning product they use on the floor is my biggest complaint. Not sure if it's the quaternary ammonia or something else, but it's strong in the booth area. An area I find very comfortable and inviting. Service is usually good. I've had 4 out of 20 orders with a mistake, but it's always fixed quickly and most of the time a language barrier issue. So glad they have what's called a scorpion on the drink menu. Also known as a volcano, a two person flaming volcano rum punch. Conveniently located next to the movie theatre, a great place for a meal before a flick. read more

The service was not the best need improvement. The food was not the best my food was burnt,salty and the drink was like . And it did not have a good ambitious it was to un like texas. read more

This place has great potential, but just isn't getting it. First off, decor is abysmal. Shogun has been here for SEVEN YEARS, yet there is no decor to speak of. Yes the hibachi grills, but absolutely nothing on the walls. A couple flat screens. What? This place should LOOK like a Japanese restaurant, yet completely misses the mark. Secondly, the staff is green. Super green. Someone is not training them properly. Third, the hibachi chefs are not doing it correctly. I've been to Benihana enough times to know the drill. I'm watching the chefs here and just shaking my head. There's an order: rice, vegetables and THEN proteins. And the show aspect of the hibachi experience was sorely lacking. Big flames and a half-asses onion volcano may impress people here, but it missed the mark with me. That all, said the food was decent, if perhaps over-sauced. This could be a GREAT restaurant if they trained their staff right. read more

Good and kind wait staff. Clean restaurant. Don't know how the hibachi is but the sushi was terrible. $14-$16 dollars for each roll. The "rolls" were only five pieces. I have been to a lot of sushi places. I know that splitting three rolls between two people is a meal. We left hungry because the portions were so small. The taste was poor and did not make up for the portion sizes. read more

Very good nice place to eat and have a show. Awesome to watch them prepare your food and serve you.

Best hibachi place in town. The experience and the food is always amazing. However it can be expensive, besides during lunch which is only Thur-Fri 11-3. read more

Shogun - Lunch portion of hibachi shrimp, the quality and taste was absolutely amazing. Also came with clear soup and of course yum yum sauce. - Japanese Near Me - Casper, Wyoming

We went to Shogun on a Thursday evening. There was not much of a crowd, so we were able to sit immediately. I ordered a sushi roll and the steak and shrimp combo plate. My wife ordered the chicken plate. Everything was delicious. It was the first time I had ever had my steak pre-cut for me, which I liked but could imagine may turn some people off. The fried rice was surprisingly good, but I have a sneaking suspicion that the secret ingredient was butter. Portions were good as well; we had enough for lunch the next day. I also ordered a Long Island iced tea. At first, I thought there was perhaps too much coke based on the flavor. But I don't think that was true based on my reaction... The only real knock I would give it is that the staff seemed untrained in customer service for the amount of money we were spending. For example, our waitress was great, but she asked a bus boy to bring us our soup and salad. The young boy misheard her, and brought sauce to empty table. That's an easy mistake, but further training would have led the busboy to look at our table and ask himself if what he was doing made sense. It's something I would expect to happen at a place like Applebee's or Denny's, but not somewhere that costs $20 - $30 per plate. All in all, however, it was a good experience and we plan to go back. read more

Good entertainment and nice people. Sushi was just ok but then again it's Wyoming. The food quality looked good however do not think this is healthy. Lots of lard or margarine used to cook the food (see lump of yellow stuff top of picture). I don't think this is butter it could be I guess. Should have ordered extra veggies. We had a good t read more

Shogun - Japanese Near Me - Casper, Wyoming

The hibachi experience is amazing! The cooks are very entertaining and the customer service is awesome! With that said, the sushi is not good at all here. The presentation was good but the rice tasted like it was day old and the rolls fell apart easily. I could go on and on about it but I won't. If you want to have a fun, entertaining, family night then stick to the hibachi. It will be money well spent! Just stay clear of the sushi. read more

the service here is AWFUL. well, our waiter, Reba, for all of 5 minutes was actually very kind. the owner?-oriental woman though, not so much. she chose to lose business that had 3 $32 filet steaks at the hibachi grill. our family was sitting at the hibachi grill...you know the table that you get to choose how you want your food cooked in front of you! our family didn't want eggs in our fried rice, and we only wanted certain veggies with each plate. we have eaten hibachi way too many times in other states, and to be told we couldn't have our food cooked the way we wanted it, is ridiculous. I am beyond shocked and will never recommend your restaurant, ever. read more

This is the fourth sushi place I have tried in Casper, and it is definitely the best so far. The sushi tastes so clean and fresh for not being near the ocean. My company was happy with their chicken katsu as well. read more

It's fine. The Hibachi (Teppanyaki, not hibachi, you're calling it the wrong thing) is fine, the sushi is fine. It's all fine, and pretty uninspired - Not that I would expect much else. Service is always friendly, and the food is usually pretty satisfying. read more

Always fresh! Always fast! Service is amazing, staff is great and the owners are great people. I come here every time I'm in Casper. I love the colors, the feel and the smells. The sushi is the best in town and the chefs always give me a free taster when I sit at the sushi bar. I love this place! read more

This place is pretty good for sushi. We have been here three times now and the sushi is exceptional (in the context of the town) Service is good, very eager to please. On one visit, it was a little chilly but it was during one of Wyoming's unusual spring snow storms - probably a result of a "snow day" when the thermostat was on summer settings. Not unheard of in Casper, Wyoming. The sushi on offer here is bigger and feels fresher than some of the other places in the area, and the restaurant offers more options for vegetarian sushi fans (I had one with me and she was pleased at actually being able to eat something besides fries and a side salad like most places in town) I had a seafood noodle bowl and it had a good amount of well cooked - not under- or over- done) seafood in it and was nicely presented. The next visit, I had a chef's choice sashimi plate and it was good, too - fresh, generous cuts of sashimi. I tried saba nigiri - along with uni one of my "sushi restaurant test items" - and it was competently done. Looking forward to coming back and trying the hibachi. read more

My local dinner partners said this was not the normal situation, but the meal was just crazy salty. This was otherwise a normal, if a bit expensive, hibachi joint. The chef was did all the normal tricks, the meat was nicely cooked (except for the excessive salt) and the rice ...other than the salt...was fine. read more

This place is so inconsistent. Sometimes it is fun and the food is great. Other times the cooks barely interact or cooked food comes to booths cold. Sushi is usually decent. What has been consistent in the last 6 months is the STICKY floors, soy sauce, salt and pepper shakers, chairs and tables. You can HEAR yourself walk as your shoes stick to the floor. Especially in the bathroom. I can't hardly stand it. Everyone always wants to go there when they visit from out of town but I'm getting to where I hate bringing my kids because I don't want to walk around that floor with little ones. PLEASE clean things up guys! There is a lot of potential here but it's getting harder to want to go. read more

No doubt you eat like a king when your at the hibachi, I'm always stuffed and the food is incredible, sushi is to die for.

I came into town just for a couple days.. Granted, Casper is a small town, so I didn't expect there to be too many delivery options... As I was searching online, Shoguns website and Yelp said they offer delivery. Also, the hours that they are open are listed on the website and on Yelp. Basically I have been calling for the last 30-45 min hoping to get a hold of someone just to check and see if they in fact have delivery, but I can't even get a hold of ANYONE! That to me is horrible customer service, especially if your website lists your hours of operation.. I had to settle for pizza instead. Please update your website and Yelp if your establishment is in fact closed or is not open the hours you have listed! I also left a voicemail on the answering machine! read more

We took our son here for his birthday we had a party of 6 the cook was great this place is a little $$ to have the salt and peeper and soy sauce to be sticky and dirty it literally stick to the table . We were in at Lunch the only table there and sat for 15 minutes before anyone came to the Hibachi table to take our drink order . We won't go back there are to many other places with better food and service read more

Best sushi and hibachi I've had since I was in Hawaii!! The staff were amazing the food even better!!

Great food every time!!! Probably best sushi in town! And all the food coming off the hibachi grill excellent!

This was a very bad experience. My son and I stopped in for lunch. We were shown to a booth and the air around us smelled of cigarette smoke. I could not tell if it was the woman who seated us or the air in general which smelled. After a few moments we were greeted and given drinks. I ordered hot tea which tasted terrible. My son tried to order chicken Katsu but was told they no longer have it. We were brought two soups that were different from one another with no explanation as to why my son received one and I received a different one. The soup was OK. I ordered three rolls so that my son could taste a little of each one and possibly order additional food. We waited over 30 minutes and during that time all other customers left. During that time I asked for a received water. After 30 minutes I began trying to attract the attention of either our waitress or the hostess. Both ignored me. I tried several times--growing louder each time, but they were busy talking with one another. Finally, we got up and approached the hostess stand--we were prepared to leave. I asked if something was wrong because we had waited quite some time and not received any food. The two made an exchange in a foreign language and then looked up something on the computer. The hostess turned to me and explained that two of the rolls had been made but a third was not yet started. I'm pretty familiar with how long it takes to make a sushi roll, and we were the only customers in the entire restaurant. There were several other employees doing nothing including kitchen staff. Not sure what happened today, but we will not return. We left without eating, and the hostess nor the server said anything to us. read more

I'd have to say this was the best sushi/ sashimi that j have had in quite some time, the atmosphere is great, I like that they also do the Japanese Hibachi style entertaining cooking. The sushi bar was great and the fish was very fresh. This was our first time here, and were pleasantly surprised. The waitresses and the sushi chef were beyond helpful on a busy weekday night, what looked like 2-3of them combining together to help in sections to keep the place nice and smoothly running. The sushi chef was very skilled at what he does and did a great and very tasty job. We will be back! read more

Sho-Gun: after reading so much about lousy service but great food my daughter and I decided to give it a try and went in for lunch with low expectations. They have been open about a month by this time. We were greeted by a happy smiling young man who ushered us to a table as soon as he was free from taking a to-go order. The wait staff was also very friendly. There was only one single chef working at one of the many grilling stations and all of the seats were full, so we chose a booth behind the Sushi bar. The food however was another matter. Both of us ordered a combo lunch special (scallops and shrimp) and an appetizer of calamari to split. First up was a "salad" and a bowl of "onion soup" Salad was chunks of iceberg lettuce and one grape tomato with thousand Island dressing, nothing else in it. My, how oriental...not. The soup tasted like watered down chicken stock and had three bits (yes I counted) of green onion floating in it. My bad, I was expecting Miso? Then came our entrees and the appetizer at the same time. The calamari was very tough and rubbery, we did not eat it all. The entree had two scallops and three shrimp, about a cup and a half to two cups of rice and some grilled vegetables. ($12.95 ea for this) The seafood was just not cooked properly. It was cooked all the way through, but not properly seared so it was like... well... it tasted like it was poached. Very odd texture. The decor is really lacking.. bare walls painted an odd cold blue color and believe it or not we listened to head-banging music. I am not foreign to Japanese food and I found this to be very "Americanized". The rice was more like Chinese fried style than authentic Japanese. Service seems to have been improved upon but I would not go back. read more

Finally, a great restaurant with delicious food! I would recommend that they need to seat people as they arrive and NOT wait until they have enough people for a whole table. Their waiting room just isn't large enough. I also think they need to invest in satellite radio. We have eaten there three times in the last two weeks, and have been tortured by Celine Dion each time, the whole time. Don't think I can hear that cd one more time. However, the sushi just might make it somewhat bearable. read more

Very good but dislike that they don't take time to cut up shrimp and serve it whole. Over all great addition to casper my favorite way to eat lobster. read more

I'd give it 5 stars if it didn't take so long... Long waits at the grill but the food is always really great!

We had a fun time at Shogun, but they still need a little work to be above average. I understand they haven't been open very long so they are still working out the links. First, the food was really good and the chef was funny. He got the people at the table involved especially the kids. The downsides were that it was brutally cold in there. Not just a little chilly, but straight up cold. People shouldn't have to wear a winter coat at the dinner table. The service was also really slow and in attentive but I think they will get better with time, they are still learning. Also from my wife, the ladies room has two toilets, no partition and one roll of tp that is not in the middle?? Kind of strange Like I said, the food was good and we will likely return read more

Shogun exceeded my expectations, amazing steak and shrimp was excellent! I definitely recommend this place I will be back again and again, amazing! Great chef and service! read more

If you want to sit with a bunch of strangers and eat food full of fat and salt go to Shogun. They overcook everything so that fish and shrimp are basically jerky. The nasty little hostess was maybe the rudest person in that position I have ever encountered. Don't waste your money or your time here. read more

This is my new favorite read tyrant and it's my first time coming here, I loved he food not just the steak but the sushi was delicious. Not only that but we had an AMAZING waiter (I'm not good with names but I honk it was) Babo, he was so nice and funny and it made the experience so much better! read more

Had a gift card that Shogun gave me apx. 3 weeks ago, so took my daughter and grandkids in for dinner. No expiration date on gift card, but when I tried to use it I was told it "expired yesterday". Really???? If my grandkids didn't like watching the chefs at the table, I wouldn't go back. read more

I ordered delivery chicken fried rice, and it taste so bland and the chicken is very strange and tough. No vegetables either, not asking for a lot.. Not worth the price, will give it another go...but not with chicken fried rice. read more

Being that this visit was my third time here I figured why not write a review. I had the privilege of indulging in a simple chicken fried rice dish that will probably keep me full until tomorrow afternoon. So much food, but so good! My fiancé went a bit out of his comfort zone and went for the Nabeyaki Udon dish which was a large soup filled with noodles, veggies, chicken, seafood, and a poached egg. He rates it a 7/10 and wished there was more crab and thinner noodles. Overall a good experience and I'll definitely be back to try out more food! The only reason I rate it a 4/5 is because the first visit we had we waited a very long time for our food, and the place wasn't even packed. That wasn't the case this time around. Thanks Shogun! We'll be back. :) read more
