Hibachi chicken
Erin K.

Huge portion for the meals!! The hibachi chicken came with 2 scoops of fried rice, tons of chicken, and vegetables underneath ($11). Everything tasted delicious, but I wish there were onions with the vegetables. It also came with a side of yum yum sauce. I also ordered the miso soup ($2.50) and it was another large portion! Definitely worth the price for quantity and flavor. The tofu in the soup was soft and silky, delicious! The house salad ($2.50) was just chopped up iceberg lettuce and a side of ginger dressing. I would've liked some additional veggies in there as well, like carrot or cucumber.

4 stars (rounded up) - given that it's fairly inexpensive and primarily to-go. We stopped in for lunch while in the area since there were so many high ratings. 4 or five small tables primarily occupied by staff (as witnesses by order pads, calculators, etc. back area stuffed with boxes and other paraphernalia. Cook visible through window working away with face mask at half-staff (why bother?). Food is prepared to order for the most part, and is served quickly. Beef is thin and slightly chewy, drenched in sauce over some zucchini strips. Fried rice was meh...not too much flavor, just rice (no egg or veggies). Sushi rice okay - needed a bit rice vinegar added. Salad dressing quite tasty, and avocado generous. For quick takeout it's okay. Not fine dining for sure, but for what it is, it's decent. Probably wouldn't recommend coming here for dining, but to grab a quick bite to bring home, maybe.

What a great place to pick up some lunch and go. Their lunch prices are extremely affordable (and their hibachi is tasty which helps too). No dine in option, pick up only. We ordered shrimp and steak hibachi, salmon and avocado roll, eel roll and tuna and avocado roll. This all came up to about $25 and change which is half the price I would have paid elsewhere, so I appreciate this place keeping my pockets lined with some cash. The salmon didn't taste the best on this occasion, but the rest of the rolls were just fine. The hibachi came with three pieces of shrimp, but was more generous with the steak serving. Overall, 3.5 stars rounded up solely because of the price.

Got carryout. Food was ready quickly, pretty good, and reasonably priced, but no where near as good as Benihana or the like

Veggie yakisoba, eel roll, California roll, and hibachi steak.

We went to Tokyo Express for a quick lunch. For a family of five, easily fed all of us with leftovers. Really tasty!!!

Beef hibachi

Food is alright - the chicken in the yakisoba noodles and hibachi is pretty much the same, they just don't add any vegetables in yakisoba. To be honest, yakisoba was a little soggy, hibachi was better with some bedding of veggies. Ordered 3 meals: beef hibachi, chicken hibachi and chicken yakisoba. Came with 3 small cups of yum-yum sauce. Total cost was almost 52$ without tips. Giving it 4 stars because the quality of food was not really worth a 50$, more like 35$ (regular Asian-American cuisine, nothing special for 'Tokyo' name).

We were looking for affordable Japanese food that we could enjoy but this place is more of a take out place as multiple orders were filled as we sat in the third booth in, passing the first booth taken by the hostess' things, the second booth had a dirty appearance with a used water bottle, so the third booth it was. I ordered the veggie roll and a salad hoping to cleanse my body of the sins from yesterday's meals while hubby ordered the lunch special beef hibachi. My salad was lettuce with avocado and two containers of tasty dressing. The veggie roll was guess what! Avocado in rice. Good thing I love avocado but if you don't then you're not going to be happy. No other veggies in the salad. Hubby said his rice tasted like it was seasoned with soy sauce, just meh. The beef was sliced so thin yet overall not satisfying. It's okay for a quick take away and for folks unfamiliar with hibachi. We witnessed a conversation with a customer who didn't know what hibachi was and the person explaining it struggled to explain it while filling orders.

Dining area. Not very clean. A bit run down.

A hole in the wall. A bit run down and needs cleaning. The place was empty. They overcharged us by $5 even after I added a tip on the receipt. They don't give an itemized receipt so they just add whatever they want. Dishonest so make sure you add up the charges yourself! Food was just ok but the rice was dry and tasteless. The Godzilla Roll was burning hot since they deep fry it so the shredded tuna is cooked (not the typical Japanese style Godzilla Roll sushi) $9. The CA rolls are super tiny $5. The hibachi shrimp had zucchini and broccoli underneath $10.50. The hibachi beef had a very thin layer of thinly sliced beef on top of vegetables $10.50. We won't be going back. Disappointing.

Don't pass up this place, even though the location in a strip mall makes it easy to drive by without noticing. A local recommended this place and even though I was skeptical when we drove up, it did not disappoint! I would love to have photos of the food, but we had none because we started eating as soon as it came! It was the best hibachi food we've eaten, ever. Their specialty yum yum sauce is delicious. The vegetables are tender and perfectly seasoned. Everything is fresh, including expertly executed made to order sushi. Considering the quality of food, pricing is dirt cheap - $3 California rolls! It's not a fine dining location, but we already can't wait to return here while on vacation.

This place is soooo good!! And good priced!! I get the same thing every time !! And there lunch prices r nice ! Only one interesting thing is it sometimes seems as if the yum yum sauces flavor changes. But it's still always good. I just have noticed that a couple times. Very great customer service.

This is suppose to be shrimp and chicken two pieces of shrimp.

Domoishi made ordering easy by having kiosks where you place your order and pay right there. You…read morecan select a variety of options for your bowl. I want to come back to try out other sauces and options. The salmon was a bit tough, so I'd either stick with just tuna or a different option. This is definitely a place I plan to go back to.

TL;DR: 4.25 stars - Solid poke bowls with generous portions…read more Came here about 30 minutes to close, and the employee was starting to clean up. Felt bad, but we made sure to put in our order, eat without making a mess, and leave. They have a sneeze guarded area where you can see all the options for the poke bowls, but you have to order everything at the kiosks. Make sure to scroll all the way down on your selections to see all the options/toppings. FOOD: ~Poke Bowls: I got the 2 protein option and my husband got the 3 protein option with rice. The salmon and tuna was solid (they were cubed), and the spicy tuna was the chopped and dressed type. The flavor and texture of the spicy tuna was good. ~Toppings: they have a bunch of different options for toppings where you can choose as many as you want, with only a few of them having a surcharge. ~~the ones we got were cucumber, edamame, green onion, ginger, crab salad (shredded kani), seaweed salad, garlic crisp, roasted seaweed, and fried onions. Everything was good ~Sauce (you can choose up to 2): got the standard sriracha mayo which was tasty ~Shrimp Shumai (3.5/5): standard - note they were deep fried ~Shrimp Tempura (4/5): solid - very crispy and good sized shrimp ~Thai Tea (3.8/5) with boba (2/5): thai tea had good flavor and just creamy enough. The boba was not good though. Overall, this place was good and better than I expected.
