    Plates used to be like $7-$8 for a chicken teriyaki and now it's close to $12. (Not including a drink.)The quality and portions have gone down while they continue to charge more and more. Did I mention they also charge a "customer service fee" of 3.99%? That applies even if you are going through the drive thru/picking up your order. The customer service is okay. They look at you crazy if you ask for more soy/utensils. It's simply not worth coming here anymore unless you really need to.

    i got the steak and mushroom hibachi and added broccoli. the steak tasted frozen with no grill marks and the "fried rice" had absolutely no sauce or seasoning. I couldn't even eat it because the steak tasted so bad. my chickens ate my $17 meal. Will never go back ad this was at around 11 am

    Good photo and pretty decent prices. Not as solid as the Yamato in Shelby but definitely an okay spot to grab some quick Americanized Japanese food. Menu isn't quite as extensive as some other places. They're also slower in drive-through because you order at the window, pay there and then drive forward. They bring your order outside.

    Chicken hibachi speaks for itself!

    I ordered the steak sukiyaki with bell peppers and onion, and it was served over rice! This restaurant is not recommended.

    I've been going to Bep-pa's for years. I think I'm one of their most loyal customers. I've made it…read morea point to try different things on their menu, just so that I don't miss out on anything. Last night I ordered the Thai Noodle Soup (Bún Thái). It was delicious. Definitely a different flavor than the other dishes. It was spicy, but not hot spicy. I would order it again. My wife is stuck on the green curry. She orders that most of the time, she loves it so much. By the way, these were takeout orders. If you want to try something different, give them a try.

    Facebook ad brought me in. I decided today was the day to sample! They definitely over hyped. It…read morewas amazing marketing. It was a good decision. It was good but not great. Traditionally I get chicken, but to today I decided that the Beef; it was buss'n (per kidz). It was so savory with a hint of cinnamon (least I thought). The richness wasn't expected nor was the freshness of the bean sprouts. I typically hate them but these were fresh and had a great bite. I used them to indulge in the crunch. The noods were square and not round. I thought that was unique as I have traditionally only had round. The Beef wasn't as tender as I'm used to but decent. The broth was the star for me. I really enjoyed the Pho. In addition, I got Goyza which was savory and indulgent. They were a tad overcooked but I like the texture of the bite it creates. The Eggrolls were a disappointment. They had absolutely no flavor but we're cooked beautifully. Nice light fry and not over cooked. The dipping sauce was too gelatinous for me. I would definitely give them a try. Its a small Cafe so don't expect mom and pop as I did. Its more fast-food style. My waitress (Kim) was efficient and sweet. She managed the front house, waited tables and busted tables so if it's busy give her grace.
