    The hibachi is awesome and the sushi menu is absolutely huge. Delicious food and great atmosphere. Nice hidden gem. Don't let the strip mall outside fool you. They are cooking up goodness in this place folks!

    Very friendly staff and amazing food. The hibachi is much cheaper than other similar restaurants and tastes better too. And they give you a lot for your money. My boyfriend and I come here almost every chance we can.

    Sushi is great! Always fresh and delicious. The teppanyaki is also pretty good, lacks depth of flavor but we still enjoy it nonetheless. It can get a little busy on weekend nights and they seem unprepared for that but we always get taken care of.

    We got the coupon clipper and there were 3 or 4 hibachi/sushi places advertising so the competition must be close. This place is byob and is close to Thirsty's so it is a convenient location if you want beer -they are diagonal from the Wine and spirits shop on eastern boulevard. We met our group of 11 and sat in the hibachi seating area which has 4 areas of 16 seats. The service was very good and they got us glassware for the beer and we noticed they are even offering a free beer to adults with the meal. The sushi was easy to order and there was a wide variety, most of our party got hibachi which gave us a show with the meal. The chef was able to keep us entertained, yet did drop utensils on the grill. He was affable though and chatted with my mother in law about TV after the meal. I enjoyed the sushi as it was fresh, but the rolls were just ok, which is where I based my rating mostly. I thought the soup and salad were decent, but could use a little more flavor. All in all there is nothing that sets them far above the other sushi/hibachi places in the area - i do like the interior but Tokyo diner is good for what you get - we got about 7 dollars off for using the clipper which is useful.

    Still our go to place for Hibachi for the past four years. Food is always delicious and never been disappointed, nicest people ever also! Prices are the best for the quality of food you get.

    love this place! it's our go to for hibachi & sushi! it's not as 'fancy' as fujihana, but i like the atmosphere a little better! and the sushi seems to have a way better flavor here. tokyo isnt always perfect. if they get busy we can get our sushi later than our dinner. once or twice the rolls could've been more 'spot on'. but they are mostly on the ball, friendly waitstaff... they even have a sushi membership. for $10/yr you can either indulge in 'all you can eat sushi for $25' or 15% off your bill. awesomeness!

    Great food and great fun. Service is good. You may have to wait to fill your hibachi table, but the show is fun to watch. If you don't want to wait, you can order hibachi in the sushi bar. Sushi is fantastic here. Staff is friendly and the price is right. Enjoy

    Worst sushi ever! Just like at a buffet. I have eaten sushi everywhere in York and this is terrible. Ginmiya is the best in town!

So, we looked up the menu online and were astounded to see "Human Dumplings: on the menu. I know it was a typo but it was damn funny. We ordered them. They were yummy little pork filled dumplings with some kind of brown sauce on top. I also had the scallion pancake, which I absolutely love. It was with the entrees where we ran into trouble, I ordered the Shrimp Tempura dinner. I get this meal frequently in other places. It's pretty standard. I asked our server, because I wanted to know and she responded, "Shrimp." Usually, yes, when you get it as an appetizer, it's just shrimp. As an entree, it's usually a few shrimp and tempura veggies as well. She seemed confused. Lately, I've been getting the same shrimp tempura every where I go. They come frozen, pre-coated. It's a little disappointing. Especially when compared to the veggies, that were clearly just dipped in a batter and fried. Here, I got a couple chopped asparagus, a few pieces of onion, cut into big squares, some sweet potatoes, and three huge chunks of broccoli, which is my least favorite. It also didn't come with a dipping sauce. Shrug. The ervice was attentive and prompt.

It was a decent sized order and they gave us some extras on the house just because I guess? I've noticed this seems to be a trend with some smaller Asian restaurants in our area they are always giving stuff on the house and it's a nice touch. Sushi was very fresh and tasty, we will order again. Lovely experience!

Ninja charshu pork rice bowl is my second favorite, but too much rice. Chicken katsu rice bowl is dry, needs veggies. The curry chicken katsu bowl is better. Bulgolgi rice bowl is good but not enough beef, lots of veggies. Ramen - my favorites are the black garlic tonkotsu ramen, beef shank ramen, and pork shoyu ramen. The broths for all the ramen isn't the best ever but good for York area. Noodles have good bounce and QQ texture. Toppings are good. Apps - gyoza, edamame, spring rolls, salt and pepper chicken are good. their buns are okay. the soup dumplings were not the best in my opinion. Ambiance - really cool decorations inside. Service - super nice.

    We placed an online order for pick up through the website. My friend's husband picked up the order…read moreso I can't comment on the restaurant itself or the service. We ordered quite a few items including the Ninja Chashu Rice, Spring Rolls, Curry Chicken Rice, and Gyoza Dumplings. I had the Pepper Salted Chicken and the Chicken Shoyu Ramen. The Pepper Salted Chicken was okay. The breading could have been crispier. I don't know how to describe the flavor, but I wasn't a fan. I dipped the chicken in the ramen broth and that helped the flavor a little bit, but it made the breading soggy. I wouldn't order this appetizer again. The Chicken Shoyu ramen was good. I didn't make any modifications to the order (it came with egg, bamboo shoots, bean sprouts, scallions, corn, and fried onions). The broth had a nice umami flavor and the pieces of chicken were large. The portion was plentiful and I had enough for leftovers (ramen is always better the next day IMO). There's currently two locations in York which is nice considering that there doesn't seem to be many ramen options. It's not the best ramen that I've ever had, but it was decent.

    Started off with the Ginger Cooler (fiery, fizzy, sparkling, and full of ginger flavor). Very…read morerefreshing and honestly one of my favorite mocktails in the area. It's everything you didn't know you needed, in the best way ever. *** Ginger offers benefits like reducing nausea, fighting inflammation and pain (especially menstrual cramps, arthritis), aiding digestion, boosting immunity, potentially improving heart health (cholesterol, blood sugar), and supporting brain function due to its potent antioxidants (gingerols, shogaols) and anti-inflammatory compounds, helping with colds, indigestion, and even skin health*** Moved on to the Shrimp Fresh Garden Rolls (warm shrimp, fresh Thai basil, fresh spring mix, and crispy lettuce wrapped in rice paper) served with a DELICIOUS HOMEMADE peanut sauce. Solid garden roll and paying $1 extra for hoisin and Thai chili sauce was worth it. A fresh explosion of flavor with every bite. ***Thai basil provides benefits such as rich antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antibacterial properties, supporting immune function with vitamins A, C, and K, and aiding digestion. It also contains essential minerals like magnesium, calcium, iron, and potassium, and may help support heart health, reduce stress, and ease pain*** Finished with Green Curry with Tofu!!! Brilliantly vibrant, herbaceous, creamy, and spicy dish balancing sweet, salty, and savory notes with a distinct, bright, complex flavor with a creamy coconut base and medium heat. Served with a traditional white rice cooked to perfection. Those of y'all who don't know...RICE IS AN ART IN IT'S OWN RIGHT! :) ***Thai green curry offers benefits like improved digestion, heart health, and brain function due to its rich antioxidants, anti-inflammatory herbs (lemongrass, galangal), and vitamins from vegetables, but watch out for high fat/sodium from coconut milk and paste. Key ingredients provide quercetin for heart protection, capsaicin for brain health, and digestive aids, making it a nutrient-dense meal when balanced with plenty of veggies, lean protein, and mindful of coconut cream*** The great thing about Thai cuisine is the many health benefits and it provides great lubrication on a chilly wintry day. The service was friendly and efficient! The interior was charming, cozy, and welcoming. Great find on the corner of King & S Court. Do yourself a favor and stop in for takeout or to dine in when you're in the area. Thanks, WORLD GRILLS!

    To Whom It May Concern,…read more I am writing to express my disappointment regarding the rude service I received during my recent visit to your restaurant. Your restaurant offers a wide variety of food and appears to do well financially. For the most part, the food is decent. However, the attitudes of some of the waitstaff were extremely unprofessional and disrespectful. When I entered the restaurant with an elderly relative, instead of approaching us politely and asking how many were in our party, one waitress yelled across the room. I understand the restaurant can get busy, but basic manners and customer service should still apply--especially when serving seniors. I also observed that when larger parties entered, this same waitress rushed to assist them, seemingly prioritizing them for financial reasons. As someone who understands the service industry, I recognize that waitstaff rely on tips. However, customers should never be asked or pressured for tips. Good service naturally encourages tipping. One waitress, a tall and thin woman, had a noticeably poor attitude. While she was not the one who asked for a tip, another waitress--shorter in stature and possibly a co-owner--was equally rude. She abruptly snatched the payment pad from one of my family members after they had signed, which was completely inappropriate. In contrast, there was a third asian waitress--wearing glasses with a round face--who was kind, respectful, and professional. She treated everyone with dignity regardless of appearance. I would gladly tip her and encourage others to do the same. The other two waitresses could learn a great deal from her example. This was my second visit to your restaurant, and it will likely be my last. I have visited other Chinese buffets in the area where the staff are consistently polite and welcoming, and I would rather support businesses that value customer respect. When customers come into your establishment, they are spending their hard-earned money and should be treated accordingly. I spent close to $40 during this visit, and had I returned with more family members, that amount could easily have reached $100. Poor service like this costs businesses repeat customers and will hurt in the long run if it continues. I do not want anyone to lose their job--especially in today's job market--but retraining in customer service is clearly needed. Tip or no tip, all customers deserve respect. Kindness is often rewarded, sometimes in ways staff may not expect.I remember one young lady was so kind I came back to the restaurant and she did not even expect to get a tip from me and I tipped her. I did not even eat anything but I remembered how kind she was to me and other people. I came back at a time when she did not expect to return the kindness she had shown my family. There was also an incident involving utensils. When I went to the front to ask for a fork, a waitress yelled, "Yeah?". This was the tall thin waitress, at me in an aggressive manner. I am a grown man in my 40s, likely old enough to be her father. That type of behavior is unacceptable in any professional setting. Other people were asking for forks so I was not the only one. The food itself is good, but good food does not make up for poor customer service. There are many alternatives available, including cooking at home, which I already do. There are other Chinese Buffets in the area so I can always go to another one. Heck there are enough YouTube videos and products in the market I can cook some Chinese food myself. In fact I have especially, the egg rolls and I'm pretty good at cooking them. Hey if they like treating people especially senior citzens like that then more power to them. This black man is not giving them anymore of his hard earned money. I hope you take this feedback seriously and address these issues so future customers--especially seniors--are treated with the respect they deserve. Peace and Egg Rolls, New Victory
