    Lunch filet mignon
    Alexis D.

    The roll is a cowboy roll 10/10 a very different roll than most. The roll has a sweet tangy Smokey bbq flavor. Very good!! The service is great! Cute family owned restaurant

    Chicken Katsu

    When a new restaurant opens in your area, you want to support small businesses. It's important that the community has a variety of places for people to go out and enjoy food. With Miso and Devoted in the area, Akeno has tough competition. Unfortunately, they are not able to compete. I ordered the chicken katsu for an appetizer and was met with (most likely previously frozen) overcooked chicken with a thick breading. Dry and without any flavor at all besides an odd onion taste similar to onion powder being directly shaken onto the breading right after frying. The chicken teppenyaki yakisoba left much to be desired. The soba noodles were overcooked to mushy and then drowned in their sauce. They were more akin to spaghetti than real yakisoba. The chicken was also very overcooked and dry. What a shame. And definitely not worth the exaggerated prices for Stillwater, Oklahoma compared to the other Asian places in town.

    Tempura was light and crispy. Caterpillar roll and spicey lady roll really good. Service is excellent

    the food was delicious, honestly my favorite sushi in town now, the service was great, and the ambiance was top tier. our appetizer, the fried calamari, was a good ratio of squid to batter and perfectly fried we also shared the Tom Yum + Shrimp hotpot, Shaggy Dog roll, Sumo roll, and Combo B (which had 7 different kinds of sushi) our total was about 95 before tip, but to be fair we did have 4 plates + extras overall, great sushi spot! hot pot was good, and the setting is great for a date night definitely recommend you give it a try

    Cypress Roll yummy!

    We have been here many times over the years and always come away with mixed feelings. First the…read moredecor is vintage "low rent class" not quite dirty but close, ala 1960 style and has never been upgraded or renovated. It certainly is not inviting or even remotely attractive. They consistently scrimp on customer comfort. I understand a hibachi restaurant is warmer than normal due to the hot grill but at Nagoya the heat in the restaurant was almost unbearable. Looking around the restaurant revealed multiple people fanning themselves. The heat was very uncomfortable and I asked our wait person if he could adjust the air conditioning. He seemed confused and went to a light switch. I told him we needed cool air not the light switch. He left and another employee came and adjusted the thermostat. When we could tell no improvement I asked him again and he related the thermostat was "turned way down to 70 degrees"! Everyone at our table was clearly uncomfortable from the heat and they would only turn the temp setting down to 70 degrees! Regarding the food, we have noted a gradual decline in the quality over the years. The fried rice has almost no veggies in it anymore, just all rice now. I ordered filet mignon and my grandson ordered steak. The chef dumped the meat on the grill and none of us could tell any difference between the two, even though you pay more for filet mignon than plain steak. The chef grills the meat together and cuts it into pieces, dishes it onto your plates. My grandson and I carefully looked at my "filet" and his plain steak on our plates and absolutely could not tell any difference! Food taste is wildly variable as it is very "chef dependent". One chef may be really good while another is not so good, it therefore is a crap shoot, you never know if your meal will be good or regrettable. Lastly, in spite of the miserable heat in the restaurant, we waited more than half a hour before the "chef" decided to appear to begin our meal orders. The Chinese owners could learn from Japanese how best to run a Japanese hibachi restaurant. I am not sure we will go back which is a shame as years ago this place was much better.

They also have somehow paired this lovely kitchen staff with some of the worst servers in existence (the bar for quality service is already low in a college town and someone Tokyo Pot has found people that can't even meet that low standard). During a 70 minute dinner this past week, we saw our emotionless server a complete total of two times. Once, when we were able to place a drink and food order, and then again, when they came by to ask if we were done and unceremoniously leave the machine we could pay our check with. The kitchen staff did a fantastic job of bringing our food (which was wonderfully prepared and tasty), but we really could have used another round of drinks, at a minimum. If you're going to hire people who only do the bare minimum, don't expect much repeat business

Our waitress was very friendly and helpful. I wanted shrimp but I didn't want the seafood combo so they substituted the fish out for more shrimp. The broth was on the sweet side but it was still so delicious! I love the raw egg that they gave to dip our items in as we pleased. The hot pot places in L.A. doesn't provide it, interestingly enough. Great place to dine and get your hot pot fix!

    This place gets a 4.7/5 from me…read more I learned that specialty rolls aren't really my thing the more flavors packed into a roll, the harder it is to appreciate each ingredient. The Espresso Natini was perfect 5/5: velvety, smooth, and an excellent mocktail. The Tuna Crispy Rice was another 5/5, with crispy yet soft rice and glazed tuna that added just the right touch of sweetness. The Foie Gras was rich, buttery, crispy, and topped with a sweet sauce. Absolutely delicious. 5/5 The biggest surprise was the salmon nigiri. It was the first time I tasted the buttery fat content. I'm new to sashimi! 5/5 The Tamago was a solid 4.5/5 with great texture and sweetness, though it could have used more rice and been served hotter. The Shogun was my lowest-rated dish at 3.5/5. Creative and refreshing, but too wet from the cucumber. The Smokin' Salmon Aburi was good, but had too many competing flavors. The most interesting item was the Baked King of Crab. I wasn't impressed at first, but after deconstructing it and eating the components separately, I discovered multiple types of crab, including a crab leg. That turned it into a 5/5.
