Tokyo Kitchen — Restaurant in Charlotte

So my main complaint was price. Over $23 for a steak, chicken combo. Steak was not MR like I ordered and was a small portion smh. For that price point the protein should have been plentiful. Not to mention everything tasted somewhat bland. I literally can get a plate from another Hibachi place that is NEARBY thats $7 to $10 cheaper for same type of food but with better taste and larger portions. I thought maybe it was a nice sit down establishment that would merit the cost but after placing online order and then to get there and see what this place actually was, (fast casual) immediately gave me ripoff vibes. To me the ultimate insult was when a female at the counter told me the pricing was lower if I ordered directly from them. I'm guessing she meant phone call or walk-in? The problem with this is it's 2025. I shouldn't have to call to get a SIGNIFICANTLY better price. If you at least had a website menu I would have been able to compare that to your only online presence (door dash pickup) and then notice the HUGE price difference myself. But you don't. And btw I think any reasonable person knows that you'll pay a couple to a few dollars extra for online ordering but my meal was WELL beyond a few. Won't be back for the cheaper pricing "NEXT TIME" because I'm...

I ordered the Japanese Egg Roll and Hibachi Salmon, and both dishes left a great impression.

The Japanese Egg Roll was a delightful twist on the classic. Instead of the usual wrapper, it used a soft egg roll shell, filled with a creamy crab rangoon-style filling. Drizzled with a sweet and savory sauce, it made for the perfect appetizer. Such a rich, flavorful, and satisfying must try one.

The Hibachi Salmon came with a side of rice and stir-fried vegetables. The salmon was cooked to perfection, crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The veggies were well-seasoned, and the sweet glazed carrots stood out as my favorite, pairing beautifully with the rice and other vegetables.

On top of the great food, the environment was clean and neatly maintained, and the customer service was friendly and engaging from start to finish.

Overall, a delicious and pleasant experience. I’d definitely...

This is quality hibachi express for a good price. The food has a clean grilled flavor that you would expect from a sit down hibachi restaurant. The YumYum sauce had the flavor that makes great hibachi. I got the hibachi steak with fried rice and a side of miso soup. It came with sweet carrots that were the perfect level of sweetness and the vegetables came with zucchini, broccoli AND mushrooms. Typically other hibachi express places only allow you to choose 1 type of vegetables with the standard meal and if you want more they charge you. My husband got the garlic noodles and they were also delicious. One thing to note is that they only have 2 sides of bar seating so not too much availability for inside dining but it’s hibachi express so not that big of a deal. I will definitely be coming back :) consider...
