    Hibachi Tofu
    Sooz H.

    I found this restaurant on the Happy Cow app, looking for a vegan options restaurant while we travel. We are thrilled we came here! Tofu is an option with almost every dish. My husband got Singapore noodles with shrimp (his go to all the time) and said it was the best he's ever had. A tad bit spicy, not overseasoned and cooked perfectly. I had Hibachi tofu with white rice. Just the right amount of sauce, vegetables firm, tofu cooked perfectly. Finally, our service was AMAZING! Our server knew the cooking methods and helped me decide the best dish for my preferences. She was on top of everything we needed, before we knew we needed it. Happy hour beers are $3.50 and our edamame and and spring rolls wete $5 each. The ambience is very nice. You can dress up or go in after mowing the lawn and it is very comfortable. We are travelling and I wish we could eat here every week!

    Lo Mein with Shrimp!

    This has quickly become our weekly spot! Service is always great! Food is always tasty! Love the lowkey vibe of it here! Staff is always welcoming and happy to see you!

    My family and I absolutely love Wild Ginger! It's hands down some of the best Asian cuisine in Charleston. The staff is always friendly, the restaurant is impeccably clean, and the prices are very reasonable. Every dish we've tried has been delicious. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for great food and a welcoming atmosphere!

    What I couldn't eat and not worth taking home!

    This place has a good atmosphere and friendly prompt staff. However the sushi is less than desirable. I have eaten sushi in many places across the USA and this place should not be serving it!

    Good luck cat statue.

    We brought our daughter here to celebrate her recent college graduation cum laude. All of our food was excellent and reasonably fast. Our daughter has many food allergies and carries an EpiPen. All of her concerns were addressed and issue foods were avoided. Our daughter took Japanese language in college every year it was offered and orders food like a pro. We all enjoyed sharing a small hot sake along with our dinners. The art work is traditional and minimalist. The good luck cat statues attracted our attention along with the large fish in the aquarium. Our waitress was polite and gave exceptional service. The food is a bit on the pricey side, but very good and served in decent quantities.

    The food is okay. If you're going to come here get the hibachi bowl. THERE ARE COCKROACHES IN HERE!! Do not come here if you don't want to see a cockroach or two.

    This place is awesome and clean with chill music ! I am a big fan of sushi, and found this place accidentally. I ordered American Dream Roll which is amazing. The service here is pretty good, servers here are enthusiastic! I will come back again.

    Always good as it is. I've been eating here since they are opened. My top favorite restaurant in Summerville!

    Fairly slow service and a little pricey but the portion size was pretty good. The shrimp hibachi was great and the kids meals were pretty legit. I'd order one! The restaurant had plenty of seating and was good for larger parties.

    Walnut Shrimp for hubby. Sharing a Mongolian Beef and red curry shrimp for me.
    Remi Louise F.

    The service is bad. Our server barely checked on us and when we called her to place the order because she did not come back to us, she said to give her another minute so my husband and I are waiting thinking if we will tip her or not. Going to the food, everything we ordered came out freshly cooked and steaming hot. I love it. The Walnut Shrimp is so crispy and light on the inside. The sauce is super sweet and complimented the shrimp and the batter. My red curry shrimp is really good, too bad it wasn't that spicy but flavor is there. I just wish they serve it on a bowl next to my rice because when I got mine, my rice is soaked on the sauce already. Veggies are perfectly cooked. Mongolian beef though takes the cake. The beef slices are so tender and I love the spice. It has decent amount of beef and super great with the white rice. It is savory and spicy, and love!

    This the restaurant Dragon Roll for $12??

I love their hibachi, and this was a VERY good deal for the amount of food you get. I ordered the lunch vegetable hibachi with a side of filet mignon. The meat was cooked really well, and the portion sizes were decent, especially for a lunch order. Flavor-wise, everything was solid. My first issue was that there's no way to add notes or remove ingredients when ordering through DoorDash. I'm not a big bacon fan, and their fried rice has bacon pieces in it, but I had no way to request no bacon. That was frustrating, especially since it's a pretty common customization. My second issue is more of a personal pet peeve: I hate when restaurants charge extra for sauces. If you're already spending money on the food, sauces (within reason) should be included. I'm very much a sauce person, and one tiny little container just doesn't cut it for me. I know it's only cents, but it still bothers me. What made it worse is that I paid for extra sauce and didn't even get it. I'm not totally sure where the responsibility falls--DoorDash vs. the restaurant--but I'd assume it's on the restaurant to double-check the bag before it goes out. I know people make mistakes, and maybe I'm venting over something small, but when it's already a pet peeve of mine, it's extra annoying. That said, the food itself was good and a great value--I'd just love to see better customization options and more consistency with paid add-ons.

From a service standpoint, there's really nothing to complain about. The food, however, was just okay. The hibachi-style entrée was generously portioned with rice, vegetables, and protein, but the flavors were pretty mild and didn't really pop. The sushi rolls were fresh and nicely presented, but they tasted fairly standard and weren't very memorable. I also tried the calamari rings and, while they were crispy, I wasn't a big fan of the overall flavor and seasoning. Overall, Yokoso is a decent option if you're looking for good service and solid portions, but the food itself felt average. I wouldn't say it's bad--just not a place I'd go out of my way for.

My husband got the spring rolls, I got the crispy wontons & pot stickers all of which were very good. My husband got the steak & shrimp combo and I got the steak. When it got to our house my husband started eating and he said, I'm still amazed that when you say medium rare on the steak it's always medium rare. I mean it's impressive bc you would think after being in a closed container and then having to travel around 15 mins to our house it's still medium rare. They are always so pleasant on the phone too. The only complaint I have is their app (and I'm not sure this is their fault). When you order on the app there is no place to make substitutions. The hibachi is normally served with fried rice but I like white rice with my hibachi & on the app there is no where to change it. So I always have to call it in. Which isn't a big deal but using the app would be nice but bc I can't make a change on the app I'll continue to call in my order. But they are always so nice it's a pleasure talking to them. When I forgot to tell them I wanted my steak medium rare, I called back to tell them. And they said no problem. Then a couple of minutes later they called me back and asked if the shrimp & steak combo was medium rare also. I thought that was great! She said she thought it was probably the same but she didn't want to assume. I appreciate attention to details like that.

The product was fine but I would have liked the fountain soda water with a refill.
