This has fast become a regular. Pretty good sushi for the burbs. We have had a different chef everytime and it has always been good. Service is good although they could be a little faster with the drinks. Drinks are good Creamsicle is a must and the Brue Hawaii hit the spot. As for the sushi we order a variety to please all tastes. When we get our platters you would think we never ate in our lives. Loaded with every roll. Tasty and yummy for tummy. The chopsticks become weapons, Get away. The chef just watches and laughs and he even offered up some samples to try. Good stuff. They also have the hibachi which is not bad either. For the choices in the area this is one of the best.

They have a very friendly accomidating staff. The salad and Miso soup were average and was thinking of giving them a 4 star rating until the sushi came. I had a spicy california roll that was nice, but the tuna,(esepecially) scallops, and the sweet shrimp were sooo go. Really, really fresh, the tuna tasted like butter. Really some of the freshest fish I have ever tasted. I also liked the complimentary edamame and a cut up orange for desert. Was a bit pricey,

This is the same as other Japanese Steak houses all trying to copy Benihana. THe one thing I disliked was the lack of vents above each table. We went on a rather warm day and it was like an oven in the main dining room. I would not go back unless it was a bitter cold day.

Arrived hungry, left hungry. The portions were oddly, dare I say unfairly portioned. We were seated with three pretty big footplayer types (go figure.) So all in all there were the three linebackers, my friend and I (two women) and a couple. The men were still eating long after the women finished. Yes I realize that maybe there were some slower/faster eaters in the group but.... The men were still chowing down while the women were sucking down ice cubes from their glasses. I know it sounds petty, but I have never left a restaurant almost as hungry as when I arrived. The teeny tiny bit of food I recieved was excellent though.

The first couple of times I went here it was fabulous and I thought that I had found a new favorite Japanese steakhouse in the South Suburbs. The food was tasty and fresh, and they had some unique options I hadn't had at a hibachi restaurant before (the noodles are wonderful!) Then I decided it would be a good place to take my parents for my birthday dinner. My mom happened to mention to the server that it was my birthday (dangerous at any restaurant I know) and after the meal he came out with a big plate of fruit with a candle stuck in it. I thought "cool, I'll have to put up with having the wait staff sing at me but I'll get this yummy fruit." I was so very wrong. The waiter asked me to stand up, and then proceeded to command me to do a "birthday dance". Now I am not a fan of public humiliation, so I refused. HE WOULDN'T LET IT GO!! He then said, "well if you won't dance then sing us a song", followed by "make a speech then". I'm sorry, but one refusal should have been enough. If I don't feel like getting up to make a fool out of myself on my birthday (or any other day), that's my choice. Honestly, he's lucky I didn't go nuts on him. At this time, I was three months pregnant and still feeling pretty crummy so I was definitely not in the mood for any of his nonsense! In a nutshell, the food is good and this place would have rated four stars but their disregard for their customers knocked it down to three. Don't ever go here for your birthday unless you really like dancing for a roomful of strangers!

Took my dad here for his bday. It was a bit cheesy, very suburban. Lots of kids, and drunk adults. Not my kind of place but everyone there seemed to have fun. Get the chicken fried rice, it was pretty good.
(3)April S.
Staff is friendly and I love their selection. The food is fantastic just wish there was more people trafficking in and out to make the atmosphere more full and comfortable. I usually get the steak and shrimp and it's always cooked perfect. This is my favorite place to get miso soup!!
(4)Jaclyn B.
I've been here a few times and it never disappoints! Great service, great food. One of my favorite southwest suburb places to eat!
(5)Katrina N.
So delicious and gluten free friendly if you just ask :-) definitely having a craving to go back soon!!
(5)TeRelle H.
We knew it would good coming back to our favorite sushi place. But not only was it better the. We thought it was the best ever!
(5)Megan S.
We went Saturday night specifically for sushi however they didn't have real crab, only crab sticks. At that point we decided to forego sushi and had hibachi. Still as great as the first time. Yet again they exceeded my expectations regarding gluten free cooking.

I went to dinner with a group of friends tonight to Tokyo Steakhouse. All of my friends had ordered from the hibachi menu. I had ordered the caterpillar maki roll & the Dragon roll. As the meal progressed, my friends continued to get their food while I sat there patiently waiting. The restaurant was busy, so I assumed that was the reason for the delay in receiving my sushi. After about 3/4 of the way through the dinner, the hibachi chef asked our server about my sushi. Apparently, they had forgotten to enter my order. My sushi finally came after my friends were almost done with their meal. I rushed to finish my sushi so that we could leave. I was dissatisfied with the irregular service we received from our two servers and annoyed that I wasn't given any compensation for the mishap of my order. The sushi was decent, but nothing worth revisiting over. I doubt I will be returning any time soon.
(2)Edward L.
This Tokyo Steakhouse is the Best of the Best. The food is always fresh and prepared by some of the top chefs in the area. As a Business Traveler, I find this facility and atmosphere relaxing, warm and a suburb wait staff. Prices are extremely reasonable compared to other Japanese restaurants. Try this one on your next outing and you too will be a regular as I am. The Hibachi tables are family friendly and a pleasure to watch. I rarely write reviews, but this place deserves it. Ed
(5)Ronell W.
Nice, out of the way spot. Not crowded when every other spot often is. I only go for hibachi, so I can't speak to any other parts, but I've always had a good experience.
(4)Alisa M.
Service is a bit slow but the amount of food that you get for dinner makes up for it. We came to try this place on a weeknight. They have specials for dinner during the week. I ordered the steak dinner. It comes with miso soup or salad, white rice (you can upgrade to fried rice for small fee- I think $2, but don't quote me on that), stir fry noodles, shrimp appetizer, and ice cream for dessert. Talk about a lot of food! I think my meal was about $30 with tax and tip. There was so much food! And the cook was giving shots of sake to the other people at our table. Overall, good amount of food, good price.
(4)Mika M.
Excellent Sushi and Great Hibachi! I've been there more than a hand full of times and around the city for sushi and I can confidently say it's the best for the Southwest side. Yum!! Average prices.
(5)Jimmy L.
Went here for a hibachi business lunch. It was solid, but nothing really special. The chicken was cooked well and the entertainment was good. Fried rice was amazing, it makes great leftovers.
(4)Larry P.
The best sushi in the area. Great and creative rolls. Also all of the traditional rolls. The service is perfect every time. The hibachi meals that are offered for lunch specials are very good and affordable.
(5)Steph N.
Best hibachi that I've had since moving to the Chicago area. It's actually better than Benihana and Ron of Japan.
(4)Lindsay B.
Best Hibachi on the southside however there could be more dinner seating outside of the hibachi tables. This is our favorite place!
(5)Elizabeth C.
This was an amazing place with no problems at all their fried ice cream was so darn good
(5)Tammy J.
Excellent Sushi! I think this place takes the cake for best sushi in the area!
(5)Amanda B.
This might be my favorite place in the world. Sushi and hibachi are out of the world. If your table orders hibachi and sushi, the food comes out at all different times but it's so good that you won't even care. Also, the appetizer noodles are the BEST. I seriously want to eat here every day.
(5)J W.
Has anyone heard of ordering sashimi dinner/entrée and it is not served with a bowl of rice? After my sashimi meal arrived, i thought 'hmmm, ok, no problem - perhaps this place doesn't serve a side of rice with their sashimi?' (for whatever reason)...so I kindly asked for a bowl of rice. You'd think that I had asked for something strange! 10 minutes later, no rice yet so I reminded the waitress and asked again and was told they would be right back with it. 5 minutes later - no rice. I asked our waitress once again and was told they would really get it for me this time...but when she came back (with no rice) she said that the rice was not ready and it would take 10 more minutes! (WHAT ??...the restaurant had been open for over an hour!!!). I've been to many Japanese restaurants (not just the Chicago area, but in other states, and in other countries), and ordering rice with sashimi should not be something strange...and when I ask nicely for some rice, don't take 10-15 minutes to tell me you have no rice...AND...when you hand us the bill don't make it worse by saying that the reason I didn't get rice was because I didn't order it when I originally ordered my meal!! Also, the restaurant was not at all full...many empty tables - so not busy at all, and therefore that cannot be used as an excuse. Due to this experience, I rate the service as TERRIBLE (a minus 5)...food was good though - maybe a 3 or 4...so hence the low rating is due to the service.
(1)Laura S.
Absolutely excellent! The restaurant was very clean with a great atmosphere. The service was wonderful. The cook was friendly, entertaining, and all around awesome. The price was great too. We will be back for sure!
(5)Marjorie F.
Three years after I wrote my first review of this place, I was back again last night. I was right that I would be back because of my parents. (BTW, would someone PLEASE open something original in the Southwest Suburbs???) It was a busy night, but we were seated relatively quickly. The server gave us hot towels and took our drink order. Once our drinks were served, she took our food order. Then the chef showed up. Yikes. He wasn't outgoing and entertaining in the least. He skipped most of the tricks in the routine, which my brother and I are embarrassed to admit that we memorized. No flipping-the-egg-into-his-hat trick?!? He botched the burning onion volcano, which was just....burning onion. Oh Lord help him... What about launching little bits of shrimp onto our plates? Ugh. So disappointing. Isn't that the point of going to one of these Hibachi places??? So now my nephew is 6 years old and somewhat difficult to entertain. The kid is SMART and would rather focus on his handheld gaming. In my book, if you can't get this kid to pay attention to you, YOU S-U-C-K. Fine. Cut him some slack, you say. He might just be getting started in his Hibachi career. At least the food should be good, right? Well.... My shrimp and scallops dinner was OK, but I think I make concessions since I'm suburbia. Mom, Auntie, and Sis-In-Law were not so forgiving and said that he BURNED their entrees. I thought that my scallops were supposed to be a little charred! My bad. Overall, the experience was disappointing. Next time, I am going to override the dinner decision-making power of my parents. If it means that I have to cook next time I'm in the burbs, then so be it!
(1)Christopher W.
Best shrimp and lobster ever. Fried rice was also spectacular. Cook was very friendly, don't recommend the chicken, the steak was very tender. I highly recommend going here for their seafood.
(5)Tasha R.
Great place for Hibachi! Went there last night and we had the shrimps & scallops and the steak & shrimps. A bit of a long wait for someone with reservations but the food was delicious! The garlic salad dressing was a little watery for my taste but otherwise good flavorful food and nice portion sizes. It's also kid friendly so if have kids they would definitely enjoy this place! The wait staff was attentive and we didn't have to wait long for what we asked for.The chef made sure we were satisfied with our food and kept us entertained. One other note, I did feel a bit rushed to leave after they completed cooking our dinner by the hostess. But otherwise it's definitely my new go to place in the south suburbs!
(4)Danny W.
My mom made reservations for 8 and we didn't get sat until 8:45 so that was a little annoying, but all in all it wasn't a terrible experience. The sushi is about as good as you would expect it to be in the south suburbs, but the cooked stuff was pretty tasty, and it comes with a cool little show to watch. The dinner combinations are a pretty safe bet to order. You get to pick 2 choices from chicken, steak, filet mignon, scallops, lobster, calamari, and fish for about 30 bucks and it comes with veggies, noodles, rice, soup and salad. It's a little expensive for what it is, but I'd probably come back again for a fun night out with the fam. Especially if the folks are paying. :-)
(3)Kevin N.
I am very displeased with Tokyo Steakhouse. I placed an order by phone for several people they told me half an hour. When I arrived the others in my party joined me to pay for their orders. I asked the cashier to please split the order so we could each pay our own way. She said she could not do that so I just paid for the complete order which was taken incorrectly. Before paying I verified the printed order on the receipt and saw that it was missing an item. I added the missing item to the order and then was asked to wait a few minutes. I am currently still waiting for my order over an hour later. The employees don't seem concerned that they made a mistake or that myself and others sitting next to me have all been waiting a long time to receive their orders. I will never be returning to this business again.
(1)Tiffany S.
It's convenient, but everything they serve here is far better elsewhere (and nearby). Tried this again after not going for a few years to see if it had improved at all and it's about the same. Sushi needs much improvement ... both the quality of ingredients as well as the sauces served on the rolls (i.e. godzilla roll).
(2)Ashley H.
Excellent Hibachi! The sushi is also very fairly priced and very filling. My entire family (the 4 pack) had hibachi, soft drinks, and some sushi for under $100, with leftovers!
(5)Missy F.
BEST SUSHI in SOUTH SUBURBS! I was seriously spoiled living in the city with sushi restaurants on every corner. I LOVE sushi so much I think I am part orca whale! When we moved back to the suburbs I was in shock that they are virtually non existent and no one delivers! Until I stumbled upon this little gem. Although this place is majority hibachi, they do have a small sushi bar. The prices are typical for any sushi restaurant, but the variety of maki and sashimi made me feel like I was in the city! Everything we ordered (and we order ALOT) was delicious! The rolls are a great size and very filling. Although they do not deliver, they are happy to prepare an order for pick up. All in all, we love it here. It gets busy fast, so a reservation is probably best.
(5)Kal B.
UPDATE: Still one of our favorite Hibachi Steak Houses. Everything was great except the owner. She needs to be more patient, smiley and polite. Once again you will get full and take home left overs for a good price but most of all the whole family will have a great time.
(4)Moe N.
My kids love this place. We come here at lest once a month and we never had a bad meal. They are always consistent and the staff is really friendly. I love their soup and that ginger salad. We always order the steak hibachi. Plus you always get seated almost right away and you don't have to wait for another party to come sit on the same table before the chef comes out to cook. I consider them one of the best Hibachi places in Orland Park/ Tinley Park.
(5)Scott B.
Best Hibachi around! They even have a reasonably priced lunch menu.
(5)Chicago M.
Next to sushi in Hawaii, this is the freshest, most incredible sushi we have ever had. The lunch all you can eat special is a great value. Restaurant is clean and all employees were very courteous.
(5)Mia P.
Of all the hibachi places ive ever been, this one is by far my favorite. It's pretty casual, but prices are great for the portions and quality. I love the noodles and fried rice. (carbohydrate overload, but well worth it) Lunch time deals are unbeatable. Sit at the sushi tables and order hibachi. You get your food at the same time, and you don't have to eat with strangers and watch a show you've seen a hundred times!
(5)Erin L.
Typical Sushi/Hibachi restaurant. Beware that when you open the menu, the lunch prices are listed first and the dinner prices are back in the menu. My husband and I saw the lunch prices and were VERY surprised when we got the bill. Our cook was very entertaining and funny. We were a little disappointed that they didn't have Asahi beer. We didn't get a chance to try sushi since you get SO much food with dinner. The food was really good but nothing exceptional.
(4)T.J. S.
The food was very good and you get plenty of it. The downfall is that even when we had a reservation we still had to wait about 45 minutes to be seated......kind of defeats the whole purpose of a reservation. The place is actually very small as well. It's definitely not bad....besides the wait but if I had to choose between this place or Hamada I would probably choose Hamada.

This place went from 0 to five stars within one hour. Caleb and I came for romantic date after being in the area earlier in the day for an event. My girlfriend had mentioned her fondness of this place and Caleb was craving good Japanese Hibachi - we haven't had since our last visit to Alabama. First 20 mins Caleb and I were more than irritated with our waitress. She asked what would we like to drink a nanosecond after she passed us the menu. Since it was barely 430 and while we had a good drive yet to get back to the city to make a concert we figured skip the sake anyway and just said water. She looked confused. We repeated. Water for right now, maybe something else when we have more than a nanosecond to review the menu!! Then the table for 8 was filled and we were deciding what to order. We ordered really quickly as the waitress was breathing down our necks. We figured we would split a plate with fried rice upgrade since Caleb is in healthy mode for the season and order an appetizer. The waitress told us there is about a $6 splitting fee and about $2 EACH for the rice upgrade (charge rice twice even though we are splitting one). After we ordered we roughly added it up that it would be almost as much as a plate to order an appetizer and after splitting fees and such. Caleb got up immediately and went to catch the waitress before she put in the order so he could change the order to two plates instead with no appetizer - she got fussy and he had to go to the manager. The manager was fussy too. Are you kidding me? They are getting the same if not MORE money with this request and we told you before the order was even being prepared! The soup and salads were served then the waitress kinda faded to black when the hibachi chef arrived - thank goodness. The hibachi chef was so amazing we had forget how horrible the service was up until that moment. He cooked food with grace and with artistry. He juggled eggs and made an onion volcano. He was elegant and entertaining. Salads - MUST TRY THE GINGER DRESSING! I had the standard dressing which is an Asian thousand island dressing and it was good. Caleb requested the ginger dressing and it was sooooo good I was essentially dabbing every piece of my salad into his dressing reserves. I had steak and chicken combo, Caleb had the shrimp and chicken combo. Quality. Cooked to perfection as well. Fried rice and sauteed noodles were great. Veggies were fresh and cooked to be warm and slightly crisp. Sauces (seafood white sauce and ginger sauce for meat) were awesome - just wish we were given more sauce as the shallow dish was gone halfway through our eating! Then you get dessert to top it off. What a meal! Caleb saved half of his. I saved a lil more than half of mine. We combined our leftovers and 24 hours later we were basically fighting over the plate! If I had a million dollars, I'd fire the management and servers there, give the hibachi chefs a major raise, and put another location downtown Chicago. For the mean time I'll be back, next time for a double-date, and I hope the wrong people wake up on the right side of the bed that day.
(5)Susan S.
WOW a great little secret. The food is AMAZING. SO YUMMY!!!!! This place I like better the Fuji and Fuji was my favorite. Hamada is way too salty for my liking anyway as well. The best deal is the two can dine for $59.99. you get filet, chicken,shrimp. Too much food for us to eat. The ginger sauce is the best too. Really yummy. Decorations are nice and its much "cleaner and more modern" then the other steakhouses. The prices are very reasonable for what you get. Soup/ Salad, noodles, rice, veggies, your dish and dessert. totally worth the money. We will for sure go back again. LOVE IT!!!
(5)April P.
Was recommended this place by friends who live in both the northern suburbs and southern suburbs. What?! People up North know about this place? Ahhh, a must try then. Me and the bestie arrived at 7 pm. I called ahead to make reservations, and they were willing to take reservations on the phone. We waited half an hour at best, this being pretty forgivable since the place was packed when we got there. The table turnovers at this place is fairly quick in comparison to Hamada of Japan, Tokyo Steak House's nemesis. The servers are literally RUNNING from grill to kitchen, to front of the house to get checks processed. It's a small place, so do expect some comfy cozy seating. Cute sushi bar, but only 2 tables to eat sushi in this section. The waiting area is in this vicinity, which I'm quite sure makes it pretty annoying for the sushi diners. We were seated in the back, which I enjoyed because it avoids having to be passed and bumped by people who are coming and leaving other tables. The whole meal is pretty huge, chicken grill about $20 with salad, soup, protein, noodles, veggies, rice and ice cream. Yes, enough for take home. I will say though, that the protein portion they gave was HUGE. Much larger than Hamada, which should be more than enough reason to come to this place as opposed to the other. The noodles were better too, not being as greasy as its nemesis. Skip the ice cream- borderline freezer burnt from pre-scoop to ensure fast consistency of serving. Gonna go back and try the sushi. It looked scrumptious as we stared at it for the half hour wait. (Sorry Sushi Diners)
(5)Sid B.
first, i still haven't tried the hibachi part ; just the sushi bar sushi area is small , but I sit at comfortable sushi bar and talk to the sushi chef - friendly nice guy next, I admit I overtip the sushi chef when i find a good one -- so I have gotten excellent fresh tasting sashimi every time; *hints here, they use the better grades for the sashimi; key word is FRESH; I come back here because it is the freshest tasting sushi in the area; and I have tried at least 5 others ; so i drive an extra 3 miles from the hotel to get here; but worth the trip; I have had the sushi rolls and very good but not great ; stick with the better sashimi i may even try the habachi on some visit, or not - we will see
(4)D H.
I invited a group of gals out for dinner here and I was very pleased with everything about it. We had no problem getting seated, though I was concerned because they won't seat you until the whole group is there and there are a limited number of hibachi's. The food was quite good--I ordered the shrimp and steak. (though I never got to try the steak. There was so much food I saved the steak for lunch the following day and someone stole it out of the refrigerator at work!)
(5)manuel r.
I'm so glad to have this little place so close to my house. They also have street and a limited number of parking spaces in the front lot. It's a typical hibachi steakhouse, which offers the hibachi food, sushi and a variety of japanese style/western influenced food. Upon arriving we were greeted quickly and given many options on where and how we wanted to dine. Since we were arriving late, were only ordering one hibachi dish and didn't require the hibachi show; we went to the dining room area. First, I'll say the place is huge, divided into the hibachi stations and a dining room with a sushi counter/bar. The other side is where they do the hibachi schtick with the volcano onion and flipping the food into people's mouths and stuff like that. There were a lot of smiles on patrons faces. They seemed to enjoy the show. The sushi was good, they had the typical assortment of fish raw and cooked, special americanized rolls and handrolls, which you don't often see in the suburban places. The roll pieces were a bit small, but the nigiri sushi were bigger size than other places. The hibachi food was great too: fried rice, some veggies, a protein (shrimp in this case) and sprouts. LARGE portions. Most of the people were getting to-go boxes The service was very friendly and personable, which was provided by a team of people that got us what we wanted. There was a slight delay in the service, because there was a guy that was trying to use two Groupons, to which they cited the policy of one per table. His loud argument was that if they don't let him use two, he shouldn't have to pay ANY of the bill for his family of five. The establishment gave him every chance to pay for some of the bill to avoid the arrest. I could overhear that it was a $20 discrepancy. He also complained about a gratuity being added to those type of deals. Anyone that complains about a gratuity was not intending to leave any tip at all. Why don't people understand that servers don't make a normal salary so the they have to live off their tips, which are also taxed. If there was a problem with the service, there are ways of handling it to. This patriarch expected a free meal for his family. They obviously liked it because they were taking to-go boxes because of the large portions. The cops were called and he was arrested (in front of his teenage kids and wife) for some Illinois dine and dash law. I will give this place another visit or two on a normal service night to enjoy the nice variety of food at reasonable prices.

Was in town for a concert.. Did a Yelp search for sushi... this joint came up. It was sooo close, good reviews, and we were starving. The waiter was a very awesome guy.. But the sushi on the other hand was the worst I have ever had in my life. WOW.. it was dry and small and just nasty. I seriously couldn't eat it in fear of getting sick. The waiter took $$ off our bill which made it a little better and his service was great, the product was just not up to par!! I trusted everyones experiences but maybe they didn't get the putrid sushi.. Just thought I would warn others because that was not normal sushi!
(1)Luv To Travel X.
First time for the family. They liked it! It is definetely better than Benihana's and we can't wait to go back!
(4)Maggie W.
Very quickly after this place opened, it became my favorite sushi place. And apparently I'm not alone because there is always a crowd when we go on the weekend. After numerous times of coming here and just going to the sushi side, I finally sat at one of the hibachis, and oh boy was I missing out! I've been to a few different hibachi places, and they are all the same. This one wasn't that much different but it was a lot better than all the rest I've been, including some very popular ones nearby. So, whether you go for sushi or the hibachi, or both, this place is delicious.
(5)Ginny G.
We were there last night and had a very good time - as it happens, it was also my father-in-law's birthday recently and the server spotted the birthday card. Later on, this racket started with a drum and a gong, and we saw how not only did we have to sing, but the birthday person gets to do a little dance to the drum. I'm sure my FIL wasn't looking forward to when it was his turn to dance! But it was all good natured fun, and it actually was a good icebreaker with other people at our table. The food was very good - we've been to a lot of Japanese steakhouses, so we've seen a LOT of "chop shows." But what matters in the end is not how cute the onion volcano/choo choo is, but how good the food tastes, and we really enjoyed the Tokyo special. I'd never had garlic noodles done on the cooktop before - they are delicious! All the staff were very friendly and personable, and even the guy who cleans up the grill was entertaining; as we were waiting for dessert to come out, he appeared, laid out his grill cleaning tools, and announced "second show!" It was so interesting, we stopped chatting to watch how quickly he got the cooktop gleaming, and laughed with him at his jokes. The staff obviously take pride in doing a good job, and we look forward to a return visit.
(5)Steven M.
Yes, I keep coming back here. But the sushi is as good as you can get. I made reservations for 8. When I told her we were all eating sushi. She started to grumble. I told her we would sit a hibachi table and that we would order cooked food also. We had a couple of drinks first and then we were seated. I asked one of the servers if we could have 4 seperate checks. One per couple. He brought us chop sticks? Four people ordered the hibachi and the rest, sushi. As her started to cook, he was flinging the food all over the place trying to get in people's mouths. I told him I didn't want to because I had a white shirt on. Right. It was like the bombing of Tokyo. Everyone was served except for me and my partner. Of course. The cook forgot to give everyone their sauces. And then he only gave them the one's they requested? There is three compartments. Fill-um up. When we finally got our food. The godzilla roll, Hawaii, spicy tuna, and three others I can't really remember because of all the Mi tie's. It seems that when I come with a friend and sit at the sushi bar. We have a great time. But when we sit at the tables, is when everthing falls apart? To bad. They have great food.
(2)M. T.
We love this place for sushi. The sushi is very good, pieces are not too big or too small, just right. The house cold sake is also very good (get the large). The sushi chef behind the counter if very friendly especially when I bring my kid in. He loves seeing the kids enjoying sushi. My only problem is the sushi bar is kind of in the waiting area for people who wait for the tables. It can be a little loud and crowed while people wait for thier tables. We found Tokyo Steak House out of desperation when Hamada of Japan in Tinley Park became way too crowed.

My FAVORITE restaurant in the South Suburbs. Period. We just ate there again for my dad's birthday and they made it really special for him in a totally un-cheesy way. Once again, the service and cooktop demonstrations were classically amazing. The food tasted fantastic as always. This place is awesome. Way better than Benihana or Sapporo.

To me these places are mostly the same. Approx. 8 people sit around a Hibachi table where a chef prepares fried rice, noodles, steak & seafood. The food is pretty decent but the chef theatrics are not as good as other places. I guess they need a little more practice. They have a Sushi bar but I have not tried it. This is my 2nd visit here and both visits were decent. The 1st time I took 8 Nieces & Nephews. Hibachi steak houses are great places to bring kids. They love all the tricks & jokes the chefs do. This visit was with 7 other adults & with wine, cocktails, tax & tip, the bill came to $110. per couple.

First time tonight...Overall good sushi, good portions and better than average quality. The sushi was fresh. Still looking for the perfect spicy tuna in the Chicago burbs, but would definitely come back. Service was excellent.

I don't know one person who comes to this place and regrets it. It's definitely a favorite of mine and my family. We come here often, and by often I mean almost every month now. It has never tasted different or bad, always just perfect and delicious! Dinner always starts out with miso soup and salad (I always get the ginger dressing), both taste not surprisingly delicious! I've tried the chicken and shrimp hibachi, the steak and shrimp hibachi, the scallops and shrimp hibachi, the lobster and shrimp hibachi, and the calamari and shrimp hibachi. I have absolutely no complaints about any of them, just depends on what I'm feeling like having. With dinner, each plate comes with steamed rice (pay extra if you want fried rice, not much extra though) with garlic butter, noodles, vegetables, your choice of meat, and dessert (comes with the dinner) is ice cream. The garlic butter makes everything good, my family always tells them extra garlic butter, the more butter you got the better the food tastes. The rice is the best I've eaten ever! The whole dish is actually my favorite meal! We usually go at dinner, but for the first time we went for lunch today. If you go at lunch time (no lunch on Sundays) the food is cheaper! You have to choose between salad or soup, rice and noodles, and you also don't get ice cream. It costs extra to get both of each and the ice cream during the lunch but it'll still cost the same as dinner if not cheaper by a bit! We reserved for 24 people this time and were seated right away, all together, and everything was cooked quickly! The staff was amazing, friendly and very quick! They work extremely well with big groups! Best hibachi place ever, and I've tried 2 others! In fact, it's one of my absolute personal favorite restaurants! I love it!

As far as Hibachi goes this is my #1 pick. I'm just not always crazy about the whole Hibachi deal, so maybe 3 stars is a pinch unfair. I'll say 3.5. I've never ordered sushi here but it sounds like it may be worth a try. The service at these places always drives me nuts. When you go and it's not crowded they basically leave you sitting there without service until they can fill the table. Sorry, I just don't get it. The noodles and rice are all much better then any other place around though, so every now and then I get a craving and I tolerate the bizarre service. If Hibachi is your thing you will be impressed here!

the garlic butter makes everything delicious, but if you eat too much of it, you might get sick. Get an extra plate of fried rice, you'll thank me once your food is redy.
