We always love going to Tokyo! Great food! Fun atmosphere!! You get to watch them cook and they even put on a little show, flipping their tools and making fun with food! Just always a great time! I also enjoy the group seating when dining hibachi. It's fun getting to dine with others. But you can eat by yourself and order for it to be brought to your table. They even have drums and sing happy birthday! Great place 10/10. Ask for ginger dressing on your salad, way better than house.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I didn't eat at Hibachi or at the Hibachi area, so mind that while reading my review. Was craving some sushi on a Sunday, so my go-to sushi spots were closed. I thought I'd give this place a try. The sushi was okay. It wasn't old or fishy tasting, but the fish wasn't flavorful. I even ordered a piece of salmon sashimi to see if it was me. While the texture of the sashimi was fine, the sashimi itself was flavorless. Everything was just average in terms of the sushi. The price was good, though. $5-8 per basic sushi roll. Specially rolls ranged from $15-18. I sat in the dining area that is separate from the hibachi. The atmosphere was typical for an asian restaurant. The service was good, but felt rushed. One thing that I love about eating sushi is being able to sit down and slowly eat with my chop sticks, one piece at a time, with convo in between each bite. The dinning area where I was placed kind of felt more like an eat-and-go environment. So I felt like eating here defeated my purpose of eating sushi. Ultimately, i feel it was really my fault for going to a hibachi place for sushi. I'm sure that the hibachi area was different, so I wouldn't use my review to judge the whole restaurant, but if you're in the sushi mood, I'd recommend a different place. On a side note, my husband ordered the chicken katsu with fried rice, and he really enjoyed his meal. Katsu was crunchy and crispy on the outside but juicy inside. Fried rice was grilled on the hibachi, which gave it an extra kick. They put a hefty amount of black pepper, which my husband loved.

I am very pleased to write a review on my recent experience at Tokyo. Most of my visits there are typically at the sushi bar, but this time, I enjoyed the grill side with friends, and boy, was I impressed with our chef Johnny! He had an amazing personality and was extremely interactive throughout our dining experience and made sure to include all of our party. The food was delicious, and his show was highly entertaining. The only reasons I left three stars for the atmosphere were because we waited 20 minutes for our meal to start, and I also missed the Asian music in the background (I’m weird and enjoy having the “entire experience” when I am eating international foods.)
