Say no more. Hibachi pit is the perfect lunch spot for when you want to grab a quick bite with huge portions. You can customize your meal making it as healthy or unhealthy as you want it to be. I ordered the rice bowl with crispy chicken and the sweet and spicy sauce. The sauces all come on the side in a small cup, but you can ask for more. There was so much chicken in my bowl, and plenty of rice and veggies to go along with it. The chicken was on par with most fast casual places. I did need to use lots of sauce though to get more flavor out of the bowl. It's nothing that will blow your mind, but it's a good staple to have in your lunch rotation! The price is really fair too, you get what you pay for.

We visited Hibachi Pit in Concord to celebrate Team Appreciation Week. Since we are big fans of…read moretheir affiliate, The Smoke Pit, we had high hopes for the food quality--and they did not disappoint! Our party of 8 had a bit of a bumpy start. We were crowded around the entrance for a while without much direction until I checked in; they have a policy of not seating until the entire party arrives (6 of us were there, awaiting 2). Once the full group was present, though, we were seated promptly. Our server was excellent--very polite and on top of things. Even when two of our orders came out wrong, the server corrected the mistakes so quickly it didn't disrupt the meal at all. The food quality is definitely where this place shines: * Portion Sizes: Massive. As you can see from the photos, the trays are packed to the edges with rice, noodles, and protein. * Quality: The steak was tender and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. You can tell they care about the quality of their meat. * Affiliation: Knowing they are connected to The Smoke Pit gave us high expectations for the proteins, and they lived up to the name. While it might not be the absolute best hibachi I've ever had, the combination of great service, huge portions, and solid food quality makes it an easy recommendation. It's a great spot for a group--just make sure your whole party arrives at the same time!

Instead of hibachi chicken my husband ordered the hibachi steak. I stuck with my regular hibachi chicken. I don't think he mentioned that he wanted his steak well done so it came out rare--at least some of the pieces were. But the server took it back and made it just the way he liked it, well done, and he really enjoyed it!! Our little fried chicken wingettes were crispy, juicy inside, full of flavor and delicious!! My hibachi was good as usual. Some of my hibachi chicken was slightly overcooked, but it was still very good. We'll be back for sure. ( :

That's even after a huge crowd from the Ren Faire! Our server was tentative and even gave great suggestions and comments. Especially about the names of their sushi rolls. You'll know where you see the menu lol! Food: overall was good! Even with it being busy it was still very good and looked amazing too! We got a variety of food. The hibachi food was cooked perfectly. Each piece of meat was tender and savory. The miso soup was okay, it had tofu, seaweed and green onions. Light and savory. The crab rangoons were crispy and actually filled well with cream cheese. The Gyoza were pre packaged so nothing to exciting. And the same with the edamame that was lightly salted. Overall I'd go to again.

My wife and I had each visited Japanese steakhouses like this before we met, but somehow neither of us had been to one during our 18 years together. Then we discovered Noboru! We enjoyed our first visit so much that we returned just two weeks later. It isn't overly fancy--it offers the classic Benihana-style experience, with the chef preparing everything directly in front of you--but the food is tender, flavorful, and filling. Of course, you also get dinner and a show! The service was spot-on during both visits. We were always well taken care of, and everyone was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. I ordered the larger filet dinner both times and didn't change a thing. When something is that good, why mess with it? My wife ordered the steak and shrimp during our first visit, but she enjoyed my filet so much that she upgraded to the filet and shrimp on our return. Quality cuts of meat, skillful preparation, excellent seasoning, friendly service, and an entertaining experience have made Noboru a new favorite in our restaurant rotation. We thoroughly enjoyed both visits, had no complaints whatsoever, and will absolutely be back very soon. To those about to nosh, we are jealous!

There are tons of offerings for AYCE and the staff is very attentive and comes around frequently for additional orders. I will also give them credit after going with several picky teenagers who devoured their food and always ask about going back as a fan favorite, that really says a lot!
