    Fried Rice; Hibachi incoming!

    Tony's fit us (a 22 person party) in for dinner with 30 minutes heads up on the Friday after Thanksgiving! Service was great, food was yummy, and the manager even rolled out a bluetooth speaker and party lights for us to dance the night away--a totally memorable evening and a great family dinner outing :)

    Probably the best sushi in the area. Service is nice, owner is very friendly and welcoming. The vibe is on point!

    This place is located in a shopping center and if you're not looking you will miss it totally! Good and bad as you want/need to be visible but at the same time I wouldn't want to have to wait(lol) when I'm coming in for dinner. It's so beautiful inside and a perfect date night vibe. Yes they have the tables with the grills where you get to see your he magic(a little kid was at our table and said this when they lit the onion) or you can have a quiet place surrounded by red curtains and music playing for a one on one. I love the atmosphere and your welcoming experience. They do check in you periodically, some places ignore once your seated, but there was never a time my cup wasn't refilled. Prices are very reasonable and the experience didn't take as long as it had at different locations. Would I visit again? YES Yes and yes! Sadly I didn't take any photos of the actual food.

    Tony is one of the best Japanese restaurants 've been to in the past 10 years. I love the atmosphere, the service, the cooks, the servers, and I love the owner Tony, He is so personable, interacting, engaging, he makes sure you have a great experience in his restaurant. I've never left unsatisfied. He always make sure that my friends and family have a great time. Thanks Tony. I wish you much success . I pray that God blesses you, your family and business with more happy happy years. We love you

    From hot grill to plate.  Dinner cooked in front of you.

    Came to this establishment to celebrate my daughter's 5th grade graduation. I was happy that they were able to accommodate a large party of 16 people with short notice. We were seated right away, and although all of the members of our party were not present initially, the service was pretty slow. We waited about 30 minutes before even placing our order, and another 30 minutes as they prepped the food in the back. So over an hour before receiving our cooked entree. Prices were kind of steep, but not ridiculous. On the plus side I liked that we were all able to share a table and memories together. It wasn't too crowded, and the food did taste good once we received it.

    Birthday family reunion

    We met to celebrate 3 birthdays, at Tony's Japanese Restaurant. The food was amazing, the atmosphere was very friendly and the wait staff did a great job. We are so glad we chose this place as a family reunion dinner. Thank you so much and would recommend to everyone.

    The food was ok, it was way to loud to have conversation with family members. The service was ok.

    Let me start out by saying that I have never eaten at Kyoto, but I tried to do so…read more My lady friend and I went to this restaurant because it had received a good review on Yelp, plus we had a coupon, so we figured to give it a shot. When we arrived, we were greeted by the sweet smell of hibachi grilling and the screeching sound of a kajillion kids. If my friend Laura was here, we would probably be awaiting her trial on 12 separate charges of manslaughter. We were informed that it was a group outing for a series of little league baseball teams. When we were told, along with all of the other people waiting that a table was being cleaned off, I figured that we were going to be ok. I was wrong. Now granted, it is already 8:30 when we are being seated. So we sit down and wait...and wait...At about 9, someone comes over to take our drink order. At 9:15, we left, never having received our soda and tea. Luckily for us, as we were walking out of the restaurant, the manager said, "Thank you, have a good night." Now, I know they were busy and maybe they weren't expecting so many kids, but 45 minutes and no drinks, unacceptable. We left and went to the Bob Evans in the same complex. Sure it wasn't hibachi, but at least we were done eating by 10. I wonder if the people at our old table had even had their orders taken by then!

    Went here a few times and always enjoyed the food--the staff is generally good and quick. The fun…read morepart is the food preparation! Great prices for good food.

The back patio is definitely where you want to be on a warm evening. The overhead string lights created a great atmosphere, and the staff were both pleasant and efficient throughout the night. We had an unexpected guest join us mid-meal, and our waitress immediately accommodated us with a table change without missing a beat. It's impressive how quickly they're able to turn tables while still keeping service smooth. The sushi presentation was very nice, and they offer a great selection of rolls. While everything we ordered was good, several of the rolls ended up tasting fairly similar - all specials I believe. If possible, request seating toward the very back of the patio -- it's closest to the Patapsco River and makes for a really relaxing setting.
