    Shrimp & Scallops - extra veggies ISO steamed rice
    Rebecca M.

    For some reason, I have never been to this Japanese restaurant having frequented the other two Asian-ish restaurants in town, and had some reservations due to the exterior and some of the bad reviews TE has achieved over time. Today, I resolved to give it a try-- won't try the sashimi the first visit-- but will try a seafood medley for certain. Pleasantly surprised to see jasmine tea on the menu (not traditionally Japanese) however it was served poorly, bag in cup and not with a tea pot loose leaves. I tried the wrapped shrimp appetizer which I neglected to get a snap of, but it was not bad if not a tad over fried. I had the clear broth with tons of mushrooms and scallions, not bad but not remarkable either. I ordered the jumbo shrimp and scallops, and the server kindly offered extra veggies iso steamed rice. As you can see below, a very fair and generous portion of proteins to vegetables, served in a soy butter sauce. Veggies nice and Al dente, shellfish prepared perfectly!!! Amazing! Much better than other limited options in town-- but you may pay a little more for a much more generous portion. This is a nice clean sit down restaurant, open kitchen with attentive service. Recommend TE to you by a gaijin who lived in Tokyo for 10 years once upon a time !!

    The food was good, the service was great. It does have a fast food vibe to it, but expect a regular resteraunt, sit down meal. The ginger dressing is pretty sad, but the veg tempura and shrimp tempura were terrific (those sweet potatoes!!!!). The shrimp were almost creamy! We had the spicy california, their namesake roll, and the softshell one. All were good, my wife says they were a little heavy on the mayo. But i enjoyed the flavors. They also have a drive through and the entres you are used to at other asian or Japanese places.

    Hibachi chicken

    For me the best food I had in Paris ..... In town for sixteen months at the local college out of all the places I tried this was the best . I ended up going here many times and could have gone everyday and I would have not gotten tired of it . My favorite is the the hibachi chicken. It was always made to order so it was hot and fresh with plenty of food on the plate. The only thing I regret is I did not try this until the last month I was in school.

    Left: Salmon Roll Right: Rainbow Roll

    I tried this place recently when I was in the area and was pleasantly surprised! I was a little hesitant because it looks a bit sketchy on the outside for a sushi place. The building looks like an old Dairy Queen or something similar (drive-thru and all), and it's basically in the middle of nowhere. Had I not heard good things about it from a friend, I probably would've passed, but I'm glad I went in. The servers were very friendly and quick, and despite the outward appearance it was clean and bright inside. I was the only customer inside (I went between meal times), but saw several vehicles go through the drive-thru window. I ordered a rainbow roll and salmon roll with a clear broth soup. All were fresh and tasty! The only complaint I had was the salmon roll was pretty rice-heavy. Normally they have a thin layer of rice around the salmon, but these had quite a bit. The picture doesn't justify it, but when I turned them over you couldn't see the salmon on most of them. I ended up not eating the rice from half of them, but that's just my preference; others may like more rice in theirs!

    Sometimes I'd like a little sushi with my spicey mayonnaise Pricey for what it is. Especially for lunch Probably not going back

    KETO SUSHI BOWL
    Jo M.

    Wow. Tokyo Express is a hellava excellent dining experience! Solid Asian cuisine & fan-freakin'-tastic customer service! The owner & chef created a ketogenic sushi bowl for my mother & I on the spot, tonight! Talk about going above and beyond to make the customer happy, right?!? Very happy to have a fresh, dining option in this small town that is a comparative comfort of my favorite sushi restaurant in DFW.

    The place is one of the few sushi places in Paris, TX. The sushi is ok, not great, but way too expensive. Will not go there again.

    Good food. Sushi is solid. Price is very reasonable. The wait is a little longer than it should be but they have alcohol.

    Best Asian in town. Not even close…read more New joint Still training staff. I've got Pad-Thai 4 times. Outstanding. Only one waitress tells me to select spicyness on scale from 1 to 3. Next gal says 1 to 5. Last two times it has been 1 to 4. Are thy just making this stuff up as they go? Sushi is fantastic. A little pricy for Paris. Biggest complaint is the acoustics. It is like eating inside a migraine. Cant hear anything. Cant place order easily due to noise. Place is just full of sound reflecting surfaces with no absorption surfaces. Advice to management: invest in some rugs. A velvet painting of Elvis. Or of Chairman Mao. Just something to dampen the sound reflections. Hang some flags. Do something. It ruins the atmosphere No beer or saki. But you can byob if you want. Sushi is legit. Staff very good for 2023 standards.

Prob won't ever go back bc they didn't even care when I told them there was an issue. They serve their cold, which was expected. I tried to eat them cold but it was so hard to chew I just took them him thinking I'd air fry to see if cooking would help the greens they use. It did not. The stems were hard and stringy I literally couldn't bite through them at the restaurant. The lettuce had only the hard centers. It was an unrefined MESS. Shrimp was fine. Noddles fine. The greens ruined any hope of a good meal bc they didn't have the quality and no one took the time to trim appropriately. Told the waitress who said "oh ok I'll tell them-even after seeing my plate still had 75% of it left. No effort whatsoever. So disappointing bc Lamar county needs to have reliably good places to eat and their inattention caused them to fall short. Again. Re: pic is after I took the other home to try and heat in the hopes it'd make the stems and lettuce chewable-it did not.

She's a super fun, seasoned server who's never late to the table with a smile and any food item! She's excellent with suggestions and getting creative! You can order right off the menu and actually- create your own rolls! They will add to- take away, customize, etc... The ambiance is fun, and family friendly! The bar features signature cocktails and a nice variety of warm and cold sake! There is also a mocktail menu! On the appetizer list- you won't wanna pass up the "Creamy Monster"!- it's a signature dish, consisting of Crabstick, cream cheese, & asparagus tempura battered & fried topped with four sauces. The staff is super friendly and the sushi chefs are prompt and amazing! For a fun show, the. Hibachi never disappoints, and is great for date night or a family setting! YUGE PORTIONS!
