We order takeout from here often and utilize the pick up window. Teriyaki and hibachi are good as well as the egg rolls and crab rangoons. The salad with ginger dressing is good, but often unavailable when we request it. They are friendly and prompt preparing our orders. read more

They have forgotten my general tao sauce 3 times in the 6 months. I have orders carry out about 6 times in the past 6 mos. Tonight I called to report the mistake (for the first time) and they told me that I would be allowed to come come back and get the sauce they forgot. The guy on the phone said "my bad." After I questioned that "compensation" they said they would give me 2$ worth of crab rangoon too. My order was 4 full meals plus appetizers. They mess up a lot on carry outs. No accountability on their end. read more

Emperor's Japanese Grill - Japanese Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Emperor's is a must visit for me whenever I go back to Wichita to visit family. The prices are great for the quality of food and the portions are sizable. It's more of a pick-up or casual stop-by spot but has food like you'd get from a fancier Japanese restaurant. Their fried rice is a favorite! read more

Emperor's Japanese Grill - Hibachi Chicken with Fried Rice - Japanese Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Fast, easy, friendly staff. Food was hot and fresh. Good portions for price. Will definitely be back!

Favorite fried rice & dumplings in town. Our last visit, they put WAY too much chili pepper in the sauce for the dumplings, making it impossible to eat if you don't like spicy food. read more

Good Japanese food without the show. Nice value, tasty and well portioned . Staff very friendly and the restaurant is clean read more

There's nothing Japanese about this place. It's Chinese fast food that's mediocre at best!

This place is fast, tasty, and they give huge proportions! The chicken fried rice is great.

As far as I'm concerned this is the best sweet & sour Chicken in NE Wichita. large chunks of chicken lightly battered. We always do the drive thru, but the family thinks their food is the best; fast, generous portions, & affordable. read more

Ordered teriyaki steak and chicken and it was delicious! Service was quick and they were very nice! I would go back again! read more

Emperor's Japanese Grill - a plate of fried rice and chicken - Japanese Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Every time I come back to Wichita, I have to eat here. The food isn't like amazing quality but it's low end hibachi food, which is always quality for the price. The portions are good and the fried rice is always bomb. Atmosphere and cleanliness aren't there strong suit but don't go in there expecting five star and you will be pleasantly impressed. read more

Living back in Wichita after many years of being gone I'm glad this place is here. Feeling that Asian food craving? This is a great place with a simple menu and everything we've had is yummy. Me, a crab rangoon connoisseur, love the crab rangoon here. Sweet, tasty, and greasy. I've had a few things and really enjoy the Hibachi Beef. Other favs are Teriyaki Chicken, Broccoli Beef, and of course, the crab rangoon. Like the self serve area where you can get sauces and drinks. Want more than one duck sauce? Me too and I don't need to feel bad about asking. Also has a fridge with packaged sauces which are good as well. Know someone that loves Mexican while you want Asian? El Gordo is right across the street and is also great. My wife and I often get the food we want from each place. Great place, great food, great customer service. Recommend. read more

Emperor's Japanese Grill - Japanese Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

Love their food. When in doubt - go to Emperor's Japanese Grill! Never had a bad meal there!

Ordered takeout from this place as we passed through town. We ordered two orders of sweet and sour chicken, when we got it back to our hotel, it was just tough, flavorless chicken. There was no sweet and sour sauce! The fried rice lacked flavor and needed desperately to be doctored with soy sauce. I had hibachi chicken and it was very disappointing. It lacked flavor and way too much sauce. read more

Fried rice was good! They give you a lot of rice in one order, so we should have planned on leftovers.

I've been coming here every once in awhile for about a year now; figured I should finally leave a review. It's a faster-food restaurant; that is, if you come in and order they actually have to cook your food. The price range is comparable to Panera Bread/Chipotle (~$10 as of this posting, that includes drink), which I think is fine if you're looking for some quick Asian food that hasn't been sitting under a heat lamp all day *pandaexpresscoughcough* Alright, the actual food; I haven't tried everything on their menu, but I'm particular to their Teriyaki Chicken. Unfortunately they use chicken breast instead of thigh, which means the chicken itself isn't the best--on the other hand the mushrooms and teriyaki sauce save the dish, and when the rice is fried perfectly, with a slightly crunchy texture, it's great enough to just eat by itself anyways. I've tried mimicking their teriyaki sauce on my own unsuccessfully, it seems to be heavier on mirin/sugar or maybe even ginger over soy sauce. Not sure, I'm too lazy to experiment anyways. In any case, if you're looking for a quick Asian food fix that's actually cooked to order then definitely stop by Emperor's if you're in the area. read more

Emperor's Japanese Grill - Teriyaki Chicken. Can't go wrong with protein+rice! - Japanese Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

First time trying Emperors. It was highly recommended! Lived up to the hype. Will be coming back!

The food here is really good, but EVERYTHING IS ALWAYS STICKY. The floors, the carpet mats, the chairs, the tables, the walls, the little numbers they hand out when you order. It's really gross, so we don't really enjoy the meal. The one on N Rock is cleaner, but we don't think the food is as good there. A little elevation in both locations would make this place five stars. read more

The service was absolutely TERRIBLE. We waited 45 minutes for our order. It appeared that they filled all to go order window pick ups first. Multiple groups before had not received their food and got refunds and left. When the food finally arrive, it wasn't even hot, barely even warm. Rice and hibachi was cold. Worst dining experience I've had. read more

I really dig the rice here. They put some good garlic on there. Not the best Japanese food in the city however it's not bad by any stretch. Definitely a good place to pick up dinner on a random Wednesday night read more

Emperor's Japanese Grill - Japanese Near Me - Wichita, Kansas

See all

Rude and unhelpful picked up a to go order. Some of the side orders were missing. Even after I asked if the items where in there. She said yes on the side of the containers. I called to get part of a refund on my card. When I called she started with I asked you if you wanted a side. Then she looked at the ticket and seen it was on the order. She said she would not do anything for me unless I drove all the way back. The chef special is lacking chicken she said next time order extra chicken for three dollars read more

This is a great place for lunch it's fast food but its made to order and brought your table, The prices are extremely reasonable

Hibachi chicken was ok. Restaurant itself was nasty, the place had a horrible smell, glad I got take out. Wouldn't want to eat there. Does no one in Wichita have "white sauce"? read more

Some people like to steer clear of the label "fast food" and would rather say "you get your food fast, but we aren't fast food." This place is one of those places. Don't get me wrong I do like some fast food, but lets not kid ourselves. The dining area is huge and very clean. Some cliche's are scattered about, but I don't expect to see a wagon wheel or a moose head as decor in a Japanese style restaurant. The service is fast food style, as in no wait staff, but they bring your order to you. And it will probably come quickly. Their fried rice is pretty decent and the egg rolls are satisfactory, but there is not really anything to drool over. The prices are moderately reasonable and if you are looking for an oriental fix with not alot of time to spare, you might want to give this place a try. It is better than McDonalds, if someone asked me where they could find a good fast food joint (around central and greenwich) read more

Sticky !! The floors the tables doors everything . Service sucked 3 young girls too busy talking and texting ! But the fried rice is good ! read more

Had the hibachi chicken, combo fried rice, two kids meals, potstickers. Ordering over the phone was easy enough, the girl taking the order was pleasant and friendly. However, the rest of the experience was pretty bland. I don't expect authentic japanese food here, but it was the same (or worse) than what you might make at home. Sauteing chicken and dousing it with soy sauce doesn't make it japanese. The fried rice had a dingy dark brown tone to it, the pot stickers were cool and tough, and overall whoever is preparing the food is not trained well. Everything was over cooked, the chicken was dry, etc. That being said, while I'll probably never go there again, it wasn't *horrible*, but for roughly $8 a person, I expect a little better quality. I can make that at home for half the price. read more

Descent quality food, fast and at a great price. The fried rice specifically is some of the best in Wichita.

Great lunch or dinner at great prices and their fried rice is second best only to SUMO's and it's the way fried rice is supposed to taste.

I'm sure I would be rating this place higher than what I am if I had food to eat. However, the very rude lady on the phone changed my mind for me. Horrible service, just over the phone. Like I'm sorry (even though I'm really not), but you chose to work here until close. Online it says they are open until 10pm but i guess they really aren't? We pulled up and called at about 9:10pm. My husband and I called to order and she answers the phone like she hates her job. First impressions say a lot... Definitely not how a customer service employee should be answering the phone, even if you do hate your job. We finish the order and then she confirms that we will be at the correct location, and I tell her that we are already here. She then proceeds to say, well then you can come inside and hangs up the phone on us. My husband calls back, upset that this lady hung up on us for no reason, and tells them to cancel the order because we won't be giving them our business. For good freaking reason. Y'all probably shouldn't be letting her answer your phones. I'm from the area but I do not live here anymore. And I've never had someone be so rude and careless over the phone. Like I get that it's close to closing time. I've been there. But you advertise the wrong closing time and you're extremely rude over the phone. read more

My husband and I went here for a quick lunch. And so glad we did. He had the combination noodles and shrimp pot stickers, I had an order of crab rangoon and squid hibachi. The food was great and fresh made to order and also like how they keep a little fridge of sauces. Also they do military discount which is a plus read more

Very chill place to sit around and chat with friends. Could be cleaner and more put together but food was good and reasonably priced. Not a high class place by any means but a good place to eat for a casual spot. read more

No one is under any pretense that Emperor's is anything but fast food. In fact, the food it offers is so similar to that of the fast food Chinese restaurants around town that you might have felt inclined to ask what the difference is if it didn't make you sound a little racist. And though the differences between cooking in a wok and cooking on a hibachi are largely superficial, no purportedly Japanese grill should have sweet and sour chicken or "General Chicken" or lo mein noodles or crab rangoon. Really, Emperor's is all about the same type of loosely-defined Asian food that many people are already comfortable with eating - throw some protein, rice, and veggies on to the grill, add some sauce, and saute until done. It's not really very Japanese, but it's good enough and cheap enough that we don't really care. read more

Best low price Asian food in the city - crab Rangoon and fried rice are awesome!

Got food here for the first time from the recommendation of a collegue. Definitley glad I tried it! I got the scallop dinner and it was amazing. My fiance got the beef that was also very good. I would definitley recommend the crab Rangoon! read more

Went there because of a previous review about their fried rice and decided to try it out. It was very underwhelming. The restaurant is basically a subpar fast food restaurant with a flat top. Nothing Japanese about it. The only good thing about it is that it is cheap. The fried rice has very little vegetable in it. It is mostly a large quantity of salty rice mixed with large chunks of chicken. The rice seemed to be over cooked and very soft. The only flavor it has is soy sauce. If you like to stuff yourself with cheap, salty, and over cooked food. This may be the perfect place for you. It is just not my thing. read more

First of all, I don't think there's anything "Japanese" about this place. Most of the things on their menu could be found in pretty much in any pseudo-Chinese restaurant (e.g. crab rangoons, lo mein, fried rice, etc). Don't take it the wrong way though. I love this place. My friend lives four minutes way and we order food from this place pretty much every single time we hang out. It's a tradition, almost. I usually get their house fried rice, shrimp fried rice, beef lo mein and fried dumplings. The portions are huge. There has been only one incident where my fried rice was undercooked, but that was when the restaurant was first established. I've been pretty satisfied with everything ever since except one time when there was literally only TWO pieces of broccoli in my beef lo mein... Overall, this is a good place to go to if you want decent fried rice. If you're looking for authentic Japanese food, the name can be quite misleading. read more

There's one of these restaurants in Derby now. Nice menu selection, quick service, in a newly renovated space. It was previously a Poblanos. Generous portions and self serve drinks sort of a place. read more

The the east side sucks! The restaurant is sticky and greasy and you can smell it. They have supplies and other items sitting out in the open, unorganized, messy and cluttered. To make it worse, the employees are lethargic and rude. The three times I've been here they have forgotten my order and instead of owning up to the mistake they make excuses. This time I was in here, my food was overcooked. read more

Love the food. However, the girl who works the front on ridge has been extremely rude the last two times I have been in.
