    a takeout container with rice, chicken, and carrots

    Wow this place has gone downhill over the past few years. Chicken was hard as a rock, rice was mushy . Won't be back.

    Every time I thought I was out, those samples pull me back in. When you go into any food court at any mall, the Chinese/Japanese vendors dominate handing out chicken samples on toothpicks, which inevitably draw you in to buy their food. Tobu is a both a Chinese and Japanese food vendor in the food court at the Town Center. The food at both of these vendors is exactly what you'd expect, just mediocre. And even then, every time you eat one of those samples you can't help, but to be drawn in by that taste. Now I'm not saying that the sample is the only thing is good here, if you enjoy the food court Asian taste, go for it, but my advice is enjoy the sample while it lasts and move on. I always fall for it and order a meal, usually the Chicken Teriyaki from the Japanese side, which is what I recommend the most. The cost for a Chicken Teriyaki meal is almost $8.00! Yikes, these food court stalls are hiking up their prices to levels that are getting out of hand. Plus, we added extra chicken which was another $1.59, because the amount they give you in the regular portion is just not enough. Tobu is food court 101, an oldie, but a goodie. Pick your own commonly used phrase, because this place is a staple here and if you ever need a quick meal, this is a decent spot for it. Food (B-), Pricing (C-), Atmosphere (B), Service (B-)

    Completely disgusted! The owner of this place has two con joining restaurants. The Japanese hibachi side and a Chinese side. Employees work both counters. Working in the mall, there's on a few food options so we've been here several times. One bonus is they give you a frequent customer card. 4 punches and you'll get a free meal. On the day that I went to redeem mine, I ordered two orders. My total was $24, I said shouldn't there be $12 off because I have a free one? He points and shouts at me "food here is expensive, I gave you the discount already". Well sir, a chicken teriyaki is not $24!! So I asked him to look at the receipt, he responds "stupid fu**ing machine, always has problems they could get it fixed but they won't, I hate this place" now he proceeds to give me $8 and some change in cash from the register.... ok .... so it's ok to make a mistake, yell at a customer, and then curse? If you hate your job so much why don't you quit? I didn't catch his name, but he's a petite man in his late 20's. Blonde hair with blueish green highlights through it, stands about 5ft tall. I'm outraged, even after my fiancé told his manager, he's still working there and has not apologized to me!

    Terrible. Had to toss it out. Old food, Flies on food since on counter, Food only warm. Wilted cabbage and broccoli.

    Kanpai in Boca Raton was such a fun dinner, especially if you like the whole cook-your-own-food…read moreexperience. We did Japanese BBQ and ordered a mix of meats, shrimp, vegetables, and all the little sides that come along with it. Everything cooked up really well on the grill, but the steak was easily one of my favorites, tender, flavorful, and even better with the dipping sauces and wrapped in lettuce. We also ordered sushi to start, including a spicy tuna roll and a shrimp tempura roll. Both were fresh and a nice way to start before getting into the BBQ. And obviously, we had to finish with s'mores. They bring everything to the table and you roast the marshmallows right over the grill, which was such a cute way to end dinner. The one downside was the cleanliness when we were being seated. We actually had to change tables twice because there was still food and debris on the floor around the tables that had been missed during cleaning I suppose. It wasn't the best first impression and definitely something they could pay a little more attention to between guests. Aside from that, the food itself was really good and the Japanese BBQ made for a fun, interactive dinner.

The restaurant is in a very, very busy area and the first thing we noticed walking in is how loud it was inside we asked to be seated in the rear where it was a little bit more quiet. After being seated, our server came quickly with a request for beverages and some menus. We didn't wait long at all. The service was good and friendly. We decided to try some things that we had not had before to see just what it would be like here at this particular restaurant and the results were a bit mixed but overall good. I had the Mongolian beef and I was happy with the dish. It was plentiful. The quality of the meat seemed good and the flavors were OK not amazing. My sweetheart had a fried rice and shrimp dish and while the tastes were OK, we were surprised at how few shrimp were in the dish. The food came hot and it came quickly and the presentation was very nice as you could see from the photos when we go back? the answer is probably. My suggestion is try this restaurant midweek when it's not so loud and see if you like it. It's open to the street and they have ample outdoor dining, which is nice but it was too muggy for us to sit outside that particular day. We didn't try their cocktails, but the people around us were enjoying them and they looked excellent. I hope you give it a try and comment or let me know what you think!

The restaurant is small and cozy. It's located on the west side of US1/Federal Highway. Sitting inside, you would not know you were on a busy street. After looking at their lunch specials menu, we decided to choose one of these items. So we really didn't even look at their regular menu to see what else they have, We each decided to get one of their bento box lunches. They also offer poke bowls and some sushi roll combos. I got their salmon teriyaki box. In addition to the salmon in one of the compartments, there was a California roll, 2 gyoza pieces, house salad, and edamame. In the middle of the box was wasabi and ginger slices. It was a lot of food. Everything was good, but I think I'd get the gyoza steamed instead of fried next time. My husband's box had all the same selections as mine, but instead of the salmon, he got sashimi. There were 6 lovely pieces of fresh raw fish -- tuna, salmon, and a white fish. He said it was very good. I'm glad we stopped here for lunch. It was a good choice.

I had the spicy tuna roll, which was simple but delicious! I forgot to take a picture until I was halfway done. The establishment is clean and lovely, elegant and simple.
