One of the workers who has only seen about three times already remembered my order. They're so personable there I love it. The food is amazing, and I would definitely recommend eating here! read more

Majorly disappointed in the Poke. Recently, we ordered pickup from Tokyo Express for the very 1st time for 2 poke bowls. Honestly, we thought we were getting a steal with their amazingly fair pricing of $10.50 for 2 scoops of protein and unlimited toppings. Where can you seriously find that inexpensive of a poke bowl anymore in 2024????? It was just too good to be true. I had never seen Tokyo Express in person, in passing and barely looked at the Yelp photos. BIG FREAKIN' MISTAKE. I arrived for my pickup order to what I can describe as nothing more than a "bootleg" Americanized Chinese restaurant masquerading as a Japanese takeout establishment. As I watched the staff make our poke, I observed where the fish were stored and I immediately thought to myself "What was I thinking???????" as I stared at the questionable refrigerator. In addition, as the employee was assembling our poke, he was hovering very closely over it as he put it together and was inexplicably chatting away about 2 inches from the surface of the food. In the words of John McEnroe, "You cannot be serious?!?!?!?" OK, so how was the food you ask? Do you want to go there? First, the good. It ACTUALLY LOOKED GOOD! The guy who assembled it did a great job of neatly putting it together, but it all went downhill from there. The sushi rice? NOT sushi rice. It was just regular white rice, so immediately they took a major hit there in my eyes. As for the fish and rest of it, it didn't taste that bad, but I couldn't get over my entire experience as I waited for our poke bowls to be made. Everything just didn't taste as good as it could have been if I never walked in. NOW, they do serve other food of course, specifically hibachi style food and it looked pretty decent as the worker was cooking it, but I don't think I can bring myself to come back for anything here after looking into the kitchen. Also, the neighborhood wasn't the greatest and sketchy person after sketchy person walked in, so that's that for us. Onto the next poke spot. read more

Raising my review to 4 stars as my food wasn't salty this time, and the good value you get for your money! Order was pretty much the same as last time. Sushi roll platter was fresh, tasty, and a good value. Bento boxes have a nice selection and are a good value. The hibachi chicken and teriyaki chicken are the same chicken, just different sides. I'll go with the bento box for more variety. I'll be ordering yet again! read more

Passed this establishment many times off of Market Street in Elmwood Park and today I stopped in for a lunch takeout. I ordered their White Meat Chicken Teriyaki Hibachi which came with steamed vegetables and opted for brown rice over white or fried. The portion was enough for 2 people and was still hot by the time I started eating. The grilled chicken, steamed vegetables and even the brown rice were tasty. However, I ordered the meal with teriyaki and the sauce that accompanied the meal didn't look or taste. I've ordered from different places and know, taste and see what the real dish looks like. This was almost a sweet and sour mixed with some brown sauce. With that in mind, I can't recommend this place for chicken teriyaki, but willing to try others. read more

Food from here is amazing. Anything you try on the menu, you are bound to like. Usually I order delivery not sure how it is to eat in.

I picked this spot to order for some clients. I ordered for a 12pm delivery and it was on-time. I ordered different items and the vegetable hibachi and vegetable dumplings for myself. The clients liked their food. I ate mine later and the dumplings were good. The vegetable hibachi was missing something for me. The taste wasn't to my liking. The overall experience was ok. read more

Tokyo Express - Vegetable hibachi - Japanese Near Me - Elmwood Park, New Jersey

The food is delicious! I've ordered several times with different dishes every time. Seaweed salad, gyoza, shumai for appetizers; eel avocado, spicy yellowtail rolls are fresh and decent sized. Would highly recommend the Salmon Lover and the Sushi & Sashimi Combo for entrees. They have quick and polite service. Delivery can sometimes take long but it's the worth the wait! read more

I was craving ramen so I came to yelp to find a local place. After reviewing the Tokyo Express menu, we decided to give this place a shot. My husband went to the restaurant to order and take out. He said that they have plastic up and use a speaker, but the speaker is always on. The cooks in the back were yelling at each other, so the woman trying to take his order couldn't hear and kept asking him to repeat himself. He said the service could have been better, but the food didn't take long. I got the Tokyo Ramen and my husband got a chicken & beef bento box. My ramen was delicious and cured my hangover. Great portion of pork and noodles. My husband didn't love their fried rice, but said his bento box was "ok". I'm definitely going to try other nearby places, but it's good to know this is a place to get a decent bowl of ramen. read more

The Food was great especially the sushi and would recommend the omega roll. The employees were very friendly and nice. Even though it was more take out, the Ambiance was chill. Over all would recommend and come back. read more

Glad this opened up near my area. I got the sake don ( salmon sashimi over rice). The rice comes with seafood flake seasoning which is unique. The salmon is overall pretty fresh. Not the best but still pretty good. I love that the portion size is decent and the fish was nicely prepared. The salad dressing is amazing and comes with romaine lettuce rather than your typical iceberg lettuce. Place is clean and quiet. They have cash payment option where they take 15% off which is nice. Overall, a great place with a great price. Will be coming back. Update: this place is very inconsistent - one day I'm getting fresh large pieces, other days I'm getting half the portions that are dull in color. I'm taking a break from this place from now as I'm tired from gambling. See attached pictures for a comparison of good vs. bad read more

Decent takeout place for sushi and hibachi. Food is competent. Not bad, but not great either. I got a Hibachi chicken, house special stir-fry noodles, chicken wings, spicy salmon roll, and eel avocado roll. For the most part the food was good and got the job done. The one item I didn't like was the chicken wings. read more

My favorite takeout sushi place in the area! Also love the avocado salad. Can always rely on the sushi to be fresh, delicious, and delivered in a reasonable time. Highly recommend. :) read more

I love the food from this place but I'm not ordering directly from the restaurant ever again, the delivery driver is extremely rude, in 2 different times that I ordered the guy tried to take the whole money without giving my change back, he don't even let me offer a tip, he took the money claiming it was his tip and when I asked for my change back he was really rude; he laughed in my face and called me cheap, that is unacceptable, I'm a regular costumer from that place and that situation has happened twice with the same person, the first time I led it slide cause I thought it was because of the language barrier and there was a misunderstanding about the change but the second time this Asian delivery guy was extremely rude, I'd rather order thru uber or doordash and tip a driver who actually provides a good service and don't treat me in that way, really disappointed with the service. read more

Who would've thought this new take out joint would be SO good?? My husband received a flyer at work and suggested we should try it one day. The food was a Japanese restaurant take out but it did not disappoint. I ordered this meal with tofu, rice, and veggies and the the entire meal was delicious! I wasn't expecting it to be this good since it's a take our place, but their food quality is amazing! Unlike most take out places, the person on the phone was really nice. She said 'thank you' and didn't rush me to get through my order. Anyway, I'm a little obsessed with the sauce that came with the tofu. It's this thick brown sauce that was sweet and savory! The tofu was a little deep fried and cooked so well and you knew it was fresh. The menu here offers bento boxes, rice bowls (which if I remember correctly, I ordered), and sushi. I haven't had their sushi because the place is more of a take out place, but after my meal I'm definitely willing to try it The only downside is and the reason I gave it only four stars is because they don't deliver!! Not that I live far from this place at all, but having a delivery service would've been convenient for those rainy Netflix and chill days. I would order from this place again for sure! read more

This place quietly opened around the corner from work. Wasn't sure what to expect when I came here, kinda has a sarku feel on in the inside. They have a range of hot foods, and sushi. I got the Chirashi, which was reasonably priced at 13 bucks for lunch with a salad. It was weird that they served it in a sushi to go dish and not a bowl. The usual amount of fish was given, with a whole lot of rice. I liked that they put bonito flakes on the rice to lend some flavor. The fish seemed of good quality. I really like their ginger dressing and their house sauce which was mayo based. For a quick lunch, I would come back. read more

I may have found a new go-to sushi place in the area. Ordered takeout/pickup from this place on Christmas Day, as my usual spot wasn't open. I'm glad I did. My order was ready before the estimated Seamless time. Pickup took just a few seconds, I was in and out. Sushi was fresh and well made. What more can you ask for from a sushi place? This place is much closer than my usual spot, so I'll be sure to come here again soon. read more

And I've found a winner! This place rocks and is sooo good! Service is awesome and you receive a lot of bang for your buck. I had the beef bento box and it was plentiful.

I will definitely be ordering from here more often! read more

The sushi quality was poor. Rice tasted undercooked and rolls were falling apart. But the salmon in the philly roll was off. Maybe it was old, I don't know. The tuna roll didn't taste right either. So I took it back after having gotten delivery. Instead of just giving me my money back, the lady at the counter gave me $5! Ok I know we had eaten some, but we stopped after realizing it was bad. There was more than half left. It cost $15 and she wanted to give me $5. I guess they don't want any further business from me, not that I'm in a hurry to return. I certainly won't darken their door again! I argued about how much she gave me back and she passed on another $2. There are plenty of good sushi restaurants around so please don't waste your time or money here. I probably wouldn't have reviewed them except for the poor response to my returned sushi. She did offer to make another one but when it tastes like bad fish, I'm not gonna get another one thank you very much. read more

Your delivery guy asked me to come down to pick up the food I ordered. Now there's a reason why I order for delivery at my work is busy I could get really busy. When he called me I was in the middle of a meeting and was caught off guard that he asked me to come down at the lobby. He wasn't even in the lobby. He was in the car waiting for me to approach him and grab my food from his car!!!! I have food delivered to my office building about 3x a month and I have never experienced this from any restaurant. I am not lazy or anything but there's a reason why I want my food delivered to the receptionist. After this experience, regardless of how good your food are, your delivery guy left a bad taste in my mouth. So unprofessional! read more

Finally got to check this place out! I was really confused on what my stomach wanted for lunch! but I smelled that hibachi aroma and decided shrimp hibachi with fried rice and veggies! It was super delicious! Only next time I would go a little lite on the sauce for my preference but it was perfect flavor not salty. The guy helping me was friendly and introduced me to the poke bowl for next time! 9 bucks wasn't bad for lunch!They deliver which is a big plus! Will be back! read more

Excellent sushi and a pretty decent variety. For certain things they could be a little pricey. But it's worth it! Customer service can be a little iffy depending on what time of day you come but the food makes up for it. Their house sauce is one of the best I've had. But bring your own drinks it's to expensive. read more

really nice workers, good portion for price, quality of food was good. overall, a good experience

I love this spot. As an Asian and who loves to eat rice this place makes the best fresh Japanese food. It's a 10 minute waiting time but worth the wait. It's close to my work. I suggest the bento box. It comes with miso soup and California roll. The lady sounds like she's always cursing at this cook to hurry up but I don't understand Japanese LOL read more
