    Had to pay for 2 bowls cause they fucked up the other order they cant get nothing right at all

    Got my order wrong had to order 2 separate bowls they couldnt give me my money back and this is crazy i was the first guest

    Don't go to this place unless you want completely dry chicken and brown color zucchini looking like it has been cooked for last 24 hours. Dry rice and is not even edible with shrimp sauce. I would give this place a 0 if I could. This is coming from someone who looks past bad reviews but this place was hard to even eat 1/4 of the plate.

    Shrimp Tempura Roll
    Aimee N.

    I ordered sushi from here tonight cause it was way cheaper than other places and I was on a budget. Their Philly roll comes with a few different things than I am used to (especially carrots). The tuna roll was huge and the shrimp tempura roll was pretty good. I didn't like the fact that is wasn't served with any soy sauce or chopsticks. All in all, for a reasonable sushi delivery it wasn't bad. I would never tell someone to go way their sushi but for tonight, it hit the spot.

    Spring roll dipped in a nice ginger sauce

    My wife and I stopped here for lunch and were pleasantly surprised at the high quality of the food. Don't discount them because the business is located in a strip plaza, they have a nice variety menu and they do a great job preparing what they offer. We tried the Spring rolls and they came with a nice ginger sauce. We shared a scallop dinner that came with fried rice, broccoli, slices of onions and zucchini. Very tasty! If you're looking for a quick lunch and are hungry for some Japanese cuisine, here's the place to go.

    Like come ooon dude

    I'm not even three bites into my meal and i felt compelled to write this review. I grew up in Wilmington and for four years i lived on college road before moving out of state. I'm in town visiting and went to hibachi cause i remember how much i use to LOVE IT!! Not anymore. I noticed as i was leaving my tray felt crazy light but i shrugged it off, is there like a rationing problem in Wilmington? I open the tray to what looked like a half eaten meal. And on top of that they seemed to have switch suppliers or something cause the shrimp in my chicken and shrimp tray resemble more of sea monkeys. They are super tinny tinny shrimp....isn't Wilmington known for seafood? I'd expect this in like the middle of Ohio but not in a town filled with fishermen and seafood restaurants. If i didn't walk all the way to my hotel with it I'd ask for a refund but i don't have the time or energy. Like get it together hibachi!! You have starving college kids who love that spot and this is what you're feeding them??

    I love ordering takeout from Hibachi Bistro. Its worth paying the extra couple bucks for the filet mingon if you plan on getting steak. My significant other always orders filet mingon & shrimp with broen rice & no veggies with a side of ginger sauce. I get filet mingon, brown rice & veggies with a side of white sauce.

    How could anyone be satisfied after getting served so little?
    Kayla T.

    I would like to update my previous review from years ago. I didn't eat there much for about a year and a half. But, I decided to return when I started working nearby. The food has been much better and I have no complaints. With COVID, I usually pick my order up and I have been satisfied every time.

    Made a reservation even though it was just me and it was a good thing. This place was packed…read more Seated immediately by a very sweet hostess. First one in and I walked from the hotel Lela only 1/2 mile away. At the recommendation of my super sweet server I tried the fire cracker shrimp which was a regular specialty on he table placard. I also noticed the cod miso which intrigued me so I order it. What brought in though was the Hamichi Kama which I ordered also. On top of this they brought out a black seaweed/gyoza sample. The. On top of that since it is my birthday week they brought me the green tea mocha. Wow to say I am stuff was an understatement. So since this was a progressive ordering situation which I created the food came out sort of mish mash. I started with black seaweed / gyoza sampler. It was awesome. I would have ordered more had I not already ordered . Then I moved on to the bang bang shrimp. 8 breaded shrimp with their version of bang bang sauce. Plump shrimp with a chili sauce. Not bad. The sauce was just a chili style sauce and so left some to be desired. Then the cod miso came out. Wow. Super hot and had actual chunks of cod and veggies in it. Very good. Then the Hamichi Kama which came out. Amazing. I had this before in Japan and in West Virginia. Amazing. Definitely a recommend. Then they brought out the green tea mochi with green tea ice cream. It was the best I have ever had. Amazing meal definitely needed the walk back to try and walk some of it off. The restaurant is small and reservations are highly recommended. Definitely worth the trouble and I plan to return in the future to try some other items.

    Authenticity at its finest…read more Me and my family went to Genki as we heard it was a great place to get sushi and other Japanese food and it did not disappoint. We were greeted immediately and the servers and chef said welcome in Japanese. We were given warm towels for our hands and it's really a great way to start a meal; it makes you feel revitalized. The inside is nice; they had traditional Japanese music playing in the background so it really set the tone. There are some tables, booths and a counter so you have options on where you can sit. The decor is nice with the lucky cat and other fun decorations. The waitress took our order with a smile on her face and asked us if we wanted recommendations on any of the products or food. She was knowledgeable on the menu and showed real enthusiasm with our questions. I could see the chef preparing the food was clearly skilled and so I did go with what the chef recommended. Before our appetizers, they brought us a complimentary side dish of edamame beans in seaweed salad which was refreshing. Then our appetizers came. We ordered Miso Soup, Garden Salad, California Rolls, Spring Rolls and Pork Gyoza. I had a few of The Pork Gyoza which was cooked perfectly. Crispy at first and then quickly melts in your mouth; was nice and hot too. My family told me the California Rolls and Garden Salad were yummy too. Then the entrees came out and they exceeded our expectations. My family that had the Chicken Fried Rice said it was delicious. One got the Grilled Salmon Dinner and another a Crunchy Roll I believe; they really enjoyed their dishes. My family that ordered the Sushi Platter liked his too (Philadelphia Rolls, Fire Cracker Rolls, Matt's Special and I believe some Salmon Rolls). I had gotten the Chef's recommended, which was two pieces of Yellowtail (Hamachi) and I believe Tuna (Kama-Toro). It was incredibly fresh; among the freshest nigiri I have ever had. I also then ordered their Fire Cracker Roll and that was very good; if you like something with a bit of spice you will love it. We wanted dessert but were too full; just gives us another reason to go back! Genki has something for everyone. Japanese comfort food, Sushi, Sashimi, Nigiri and more. If you haven't already gone, it's time to go; you won't be disappointed! Until next time! じゃあね!

I don't usually write reviews but this has happened too many times and the "we're sorry" or "we'll give you a $10 coupon" isn't enough. The past 4 orders have constantly missed something we've both paid for and requested verbally whether we picked up the to go order or go through Uber Eats. This time it was the fried rice, last time the Yum Yum sauce, before that the sushi roll, etc. I called and asked for the manager, Jackson. He apologized like they've done everytime and then offered a $10 coupon for next time. Sorry I want my fried rice. I've ordered from Lucky Star for 15 years and they've never forgot rice or sauce or anything. I then asked for the owner just to let everyone aware before leaving a bad review. Jackson immediately replied that "you're not going to like my answer she's out of the country for the next few months"....he was right that's not the answer I wanted...I wanted my rice! Just another example how bad management & leadership will lead to bad service. It's a shame cause the food (when you get what you ordered) is good. I would highly recommend against ordering online unless you're ok getting a "we're sorry excuse" when your food that you paid for doesn't show up.

They do not take reservations so it is first come first serve. I waited maybe 5-10 minutes and was seated at a booth. I hate taking up a booth at a busy place when it is just me but that is where they seated me. Hostess was super sweet but spoke very low. Background noise and being hard of hearing that made for several repeats. We worked through it. Interior is very Asian. Some looks to be very old Asian. Not sure how many years this place has been here but it appears to be several. After reviewing the huge menu I discussed with my server going with something different and went with the nest after she explained it. Sounded different and it was. It is also huge. Lots of shrimp and scallops. And the veggies block out the noodles that are sopping up the juice below. I was unable To finish it all. Wow it was good. The place is super crowded and super busy. They definitely move folks through. Great food and dining experience.

We took the trip so we waited......and waited......and waited x's 5. Finally seated at this point we would have jumped in the pond and ate one of those koi fish. The Food was fine. Nothing to write home about. Would've been 5x's better had it at least been warm. I believe there HAS to be better options around. However I think the ambiance, decorations, photo ops etc is what sells the place. No biggie. I would return. I checked it off my list.
