Because it had been some time since we had hibachi, and we didn't feel like driving down to our only hibachi spot, we decided to try Tokyo Grill. It had been on the potential list for some time. Went in with lowered expectations, and while it wasn't as good as our other spot, it was passable. My Vegetable Hibachi was wanting. The rich flavors weren't as present as I'd prefer, and there was a severe lack of mushrooms. I also got it with steamed rice (trying to cut down on fried stuff). The sweetie for the chicken and shrimp with the fried-ish rice. She said it was almost as good as our other spot's own, but at the same time she didn't want to finish or save it. She enjoyed the rice, which I tried, and it was good. The kids working the counter were good - didn't rush us and answered the one question we had without any issues. I wish they automatically gave utinsils, but they did give soy sauce quite willingly. They only give one white sauce per order though. One positive is that it's more comfortable to eat in here than our other place, even though we didn't stay. The booths and tables are a decent size. I won't run back here, but will go in a pinch. read more

Service Order was over seasoned. Restaurant refused to correct the order or offer a refund. Left food with management read more

Food is always great but whoever the two lady's are working up front do NOT need to be there.TERRIBLE customer service. I didn't get greeted when I walked up to counter (not even a hey what can I get for you) and got stared at like I wasn't supposed to be there. She never asked what I wanted had to order on my own command while she was on the phone with someone. Got my food and still had the nerve to say thank you...no response back. I've been in the service industry and that's going to affect business unless it was just my experience. Management needs to do better on the hiring aspect. read more

This was an unbelievably bad experience. I ordered a hibachi bowl with vegetables and arrived home with only meat and rice. I called back and the store refused to make it right. read more

Consistently Fantastic food with very generous portions! Additionally, staff are always kind and it is well worth the price.

Fine alternative for hibachi related takeout when you can't make it to experience the real thing. Will order again!

The prices for food here is really good in my opinion. The chicken however was drowned in teriyaki sauce but still was real dry when biting into it. Rice was really good and seasoned well. It felt as if there was a massive amount of zucchini and onions on the plate and not enough chicken. Overall would return again if the area. read more

Tokyo Grill - Chicken Teriyaki Chicken - Sushi Bars Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

This was my first visit to this Tokyo Grill location. The staff was very friendly and, despite this being a to-go order, it was ready very fast. A couple of the drinks were out (very typical during this time) but there were still plenty of options. I ordered the chicken, shrimp and steak hibachi. The steak and shrimp didn't have much flavor, but the chicken did. The white sauce is really good. This order was enough to feed two people, so it was a good value. I would definitely visit this location again. read more

Ordered through the app and arranged a pick up time for 8pm-8:15pm. Got a notification that my order was ready at 8 pm and when I arrived they didn't even start my order. I had to wait an additional 15-20 minutes for my order. The cashier was not pleasant at all. I then asked about my sushi (California roll with added crab meat). I posted a picture so you can see the foolishness, it literally looks like sushi from Publix and she explained the extra crab meat was just a bigger size crab meat inside. I am furious. Nothing was done to satisfy me as a loyal customer and I will not be returning to the Killian Rd. (Roberts Branch) location. read more

Tokyo Grill - a person holding a plastic container of sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Columbia, South Carolina

A little disappointed in the food today. Shrimp is undercooked and white sauce is watered down. This used to be the best Tokyo grill in town. Stop diluting the sauce. read more

Chicken was really fatty and shrimp seem to always have some kind of remnant of wood pieces like from a chop stick, which I didn't use or have. I've tried to use this place a couple times and am just finally hanging up the towel on it. The miso always takes like just water and the food quality is so poor. Cooked vegetables are always tough like they weren't even cooked. Definitely recommend trying another Japanese restaurant nearby than this one. read more

They gave me extra white sticky cream. The young bald man called me father when i left and i had to run out of the door but it made me feel appreciated. I have a left ankle dislocation from falling in chicago. I also have a boiler problem? read more

The chicken teriyaki was alright. The rice was bland af I had to put shit ton of yum yum sauce and duck sauce so it could taste good but the chicken was pretty good, I personally wouldn't go back. read more

My wife and I went here Friday night for the first time. Bad weather, so we decided to order something to take home. We ordered two spring rolls, an order of Shrimp and Rice and a Shrimp,Steak and rice entree. The spring rolls were rather small, but excellent. Nice and crisp with a great taste - we both said we'd order them again. Both of us loved the entrees. The shrimp was done perfectly...tender and not over cooked. The zucchini and onions in the dish were also great. She said the next time she ordered she'd ask for extra veggies, as they were so good. I felt the same way. The steak was also very tender and great tasting. She generally doesn't order steak at Chinese restaurants...sticks to shrimp or chicken, but she tasted the steak in my dish and said she'd order the shrimp and steak next time. Nice atmosphere. Small place and I thought it may be a carry-out type only place, but they have nice booths and atmosphere. We'll definitely be going back. read more

Food bland, and rice was rice. When you walk in you smell nothing!!!! Asian cuisine has lots of flavor and smells wonderful! Not this place!!!! read more

Always place online order and it's right and always fresh no matter when I go! Steak, Shrimp & Chicken read more

I have made many attempts to have a good experience at this location and there is always something wrong. My order is never what I call in. If I specifically order a side of shrimp and a separate side of broccoli, I should not have an order of broccoli and an order of shrimp with broccoli. Don't try to skimp me by using broccoli as a space filler. Last time I ordered shrimp and got chicken, so I guess this is progress. The convenience of not cooking isn't worth it when I don't get what I paid for. read more

Good eats for cheap! For the same meal at my go to Japanese restaurant I would've had to pay 17 bucks or more. Here it cost $10.75 and it came with soda and a salad. So, if you want a fast food hibachi experience that still has good food, try Tokyo Grill! read more

One of my son's favorite places to order from. Well priced, consistent and quick deliveries. Staff very pleasant.

Only order the fried gyoza from here. I think the hard scrabble location is better. But both places need to work on the sauce that comes with it. I didn't take pictures Bc they're the same as the other location but I think hardscrabble has less cabbage and more flavor. The reason I'm giving it a two is because the Asian woman getting our order together didn't have gloves or anything and I saw her open the container and her thumb went into the food. Pandemic or not, I don't want someone's bare hands touching my food. I don't think she was wearing a mask either. read more

Absolutely the worst food I've ever had! How are you even still in business!?!? If you like chicken that's been so over-boiled that it dissolves when you try to eat it, then this is the place for you! We didn't even finish the food, we tossed it in the garbage! read more

Fast and easy! My daughter loves the steak bowl and always eats it all! No kids meals here.

Serves great yummy food. They have vegetarian options yay!!! They are quick and cool to talk to. I always have such a good experience when i go there on my lunch break. Whenever I'm in the mood for hibachi and can't sit down and eat this is my go to. I recommend read more

I'm from Out Of Town & saw the Advertisement on TV for this place. First, it was Super Clean. The Service was Super Fast & Friendly and that was at 6 PM. I took pictures of the Teriyaki Chicken Combo. It had a Big Salad with Yummy Ginger Sauce. The main meal had a Good Amount Of Chicken, Vegetables and Rice. The food was really GOOD and warm. There is nothing wrong with this place. It was fairly priced too. There is Absolutely nothing wrong with this Restaurant. Tasty Food at a Good Price! read more

I had the shrimp, chicken, steak hibachi. It was ok. Too much zucchini. The chicken was cooked perfect but the rice was not. This is fast food hibachi. I've had much better. Sorry. read more

The employee there was very nice and explained the menu. I got the chicken teriyaki. It would have been a three but the hot sauce and the white sauce made it a definite 4. For the price the portion was great. I even had someone try to steal my food! Umm not here!!!! Lol read more

Really good place to get take out hibachi. I haven't had a problem there so far and they always give me extra sauce. Food is pretty good, I usually get the steak and shrimp hibachi. read more

As someone who truly loves hibachi and teriyaki and has eaten it at several different restaurants, I knew I had to leave a review. This is terrible teriyaki. Chicken is boiled then drenched in a sauce that is mostly flavorless with a very slight hint of teriyaki. Chicken is super gummy bc it is very boiled. Rice tastes like whatever it was cooked in. The worst part of all is the "white sauce" or what others consider the yum yum sauce. It is awful here. Unless you like to eat runny mayo on your rice and meat. It tastes horrible. No flavor aside from watery mayo. And the veggies are barely cooked. I was starving at lunch and wanted something decently healthy but this was barely palatable. Just awful. I would never recommend this place. read more

I'll be back. I liked it because it feels kind of quaint in a busy little shopping area and I live nearby. Food and service was good.

We didn't have high expectations for this restaurant because we've been let down in our recent attempts to find good take out. However, the steak and shrimp hibachi plate was SO good. Lots of flavor, tender steak, shrimp wasn't overcooked and the rice is amazing. I could eat bowls and bowls of the fried rice alone. Not a huge fan of the egg rolls but the gyoza was really good as well. Definitely recommend, especially with their prices!!! read more

Since this is a new location I called my order in because I new they would be busy on a Saturday night. When I got there and picked up my food it wasn't what I asked for. The girl was super sweet and fixed it with am smile on her face. The food was hot and delicious! read more

This place is not all that great. It is not made to order. It is much like a Panda Express as its already made and they basically just throw it on a plate. Nothing tasted fresh. Just avoid and go next door to salsaritas read more

We have been to this restaurant twice now--once to eat there and most recent to take out our order. We are extremely pleased with the food, the prices and the pleasant attitude of the employees. The amount of food you get for the price is a great deal. The food is really good, the restaurant is clean and the employees give great, quick service with a smile. We love eating there and will surely return. We highly recommend this restaurant. read more
