Food is always good and fresh quick takeout but makes a great meal staff extremely friendly

I can't believe this place got any good reviews if the food was the same that we got. My steak was like shoe leather, the chicken was fatty, the fried rice just tasted like brown overcooked rice, NOT FRIED RICE, and the veggies were soggy with zero flavor. They were supposed to be in a sauce and there was no sauce on the veggies, meat, or rice. Both dishes we got were absolutely awful! I was so looking forward to a good hibachi place near me, but I recommend everyone to avoid wasting their money at this place. read more

Hibachi Chicken plate (large) This is my third time eating here and have loved every time... the food is always hot and fresh.. the way they prepare the veggies is the best! I crave them.. I get a side of the ramen noodles to go on the side too. Have enough for 2-3 meals.. the restaurant is always clean and the staff is friendly and helpful. Will be coming back! read more

Hibachi Express - They have great food, and excellent service here! bonus that they're open on Christmas Day! 10/10 fast service even if they were busy! - Japanese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

I was pleasantly surprised at the quality of our meals. I had low expectations, in reality it is "fast food" so my expectations were such, but we had a nice size portion packed with flavor. The lunch special was an amazing deal it came with fried rice and a fountain soda. The onion soup was perfection! Called in my order, went and picked it up, super friendly staff, meals packaged well, yum yum sauce already packed in the bag, soy sauce and hot sauce at a self serve station near the drink station. Took our meals home, but there were plenty of chairs and tables inside if you prefer to eat there. read more

Let me start by saying if you're expecting this to be like the location in Plant City, you'll be disappointed. Drive the extra 15 minutes. The food is okay, portion size seems very small compared to Plant City location. We've done takeout 2-3 times from this location and same experience each time. The biggest complaint would be they are super slow! I understand the food (or at least I think) is cooked to order but I'm not ordering a well done 24oz steak! We've waited for food longer than it's taken us to drive there, back home and then eat. read more

Veggies meal was very fresh and well prepared . Service was nice and the establishment is very clean.

I can't quite jump in the five star train but did enjoy my meal. I had the vegetable stir fry. Good but a little oily. The price point on it was very good for the quantity of the portion. I also tried the rainbow roll. Though it wasn't bad, it's tough to compare it fairly to sushi I've had at other locales. Once again, the price point was adequate and the meal itself satisfied me. The folks working here are great. Cordial, courteous and genuine. read more

Food was quick and delicious. Definitely would recommend. Better alternative to burgers and fries for a quick meal. I got the lunch special, the chicken hibachi that comes with a drink for $8.35. Great value for the amount of food you get. The veggies were zucchini, onions and broccoli- all delicious. read more

Hibachi Express - Chicken hibachi with veggies and fried rice - Japanese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

This place is not what you think of if you are thinking of a hibachi restaurant but it's still really good. I tried the steak and my husband tried the teriyaki chicken and both were very good. Decent prices and the yum yum sauce was good. My son liked the chicken and fries. He compared the fries to Zaxby's. read more

Hibachi Express - Hibachi lunch special - Japanese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

This was our first time here today. We were so excited when our first opened a few months ago, but then we saw all the bad reviews, so we waited. I wish people would leave more reviews for this place because it was so yummy and fresh. The only downside was that we waited about 40 minutes, when it was only 2 entrees and edamame. The entrees were amazing, hot, and tasted great. Sadly, the edamame lacked any salt. But overall, the experience was great. read more

Hibachi Express - Shrimp hibachi entree - Japanese Near Me - Lakeland, Florida

First time I went I ordered the trio (steak ' shrimp & chicken ) when I got home and they forgot my shrimp and chicken but I was able to pick it up the next day .. it was really fresh and tasted good . Second time I went the energy of the white guy working the front was really rude and seemed annoyed which really don't have nothing to do with me but the food that time wasn't really that fresh and the portion size wasn't the same as when I first ordered .. read more

Had the hibachi steak with vegetables and fried rice. Steak was very tough. Veggies were ok as was the rice. Wife had Japanese noodles and chicken. Chicken was tough and noodles were dry. Service was fast and friendly. read more

This place is great compared to others. I love that they have options of small or large plates. The sushi is also delicious!

Very small compared to Clubhouse Rd location. I was expecting more of a restaurant seating, this is like Chinese to go. Food is good though, service is getting faster read more

I ordered the combination fried rice. Shrimp, chicken, and beef.. I decided to eat inside this tiny establishment. The product was served on a plastic plate with plastic utensils. It's better then a styrofoam carton I suppose. The so called food looked like something from a school cafeteria. A few over cooked shrimp, chunks of beef, and chunks of chicken. The rice was devoid of vegetables, or egg, and didn't appear to be flavored. Needless to say, a less then appetizing presentation. I attempted to eat it... as expected it's was truly bland and dissatisfying. After just a few mouthfuls, I just couldn't put my taste buds, and stomach through anymore. A total waste of $15! In my opinion if a Japanese or Chinese restaurant can't make a good fried rice, nothing else on the menu is worth a second look! If you don't have taste bud or don't mind being served cafeteria food, this place is for you!!! read more

Great little place to order takeout from off CL Road. My only "wish" would be that they had brown rice, but man I still enjoyed this find. The takeout order was ready when promised and I'll be sure to order again soon. read more

Good food great service very clean a lot of food for the price everyone was very very nice

I ordered my food from DoorDash. Food was cold and was delivered by DoorDash quickly I had no sauce in the bag or silverware or napkins when on my order it specified it was a buiness . I called and spoke to the assistant manager in training explained and she just laughed at me and said they didn't put chop sticks in the bag for you .... I called back this morning to speak to the quote manager. I explained that everything that happened she just kept repeating over and over call DoorDash when I explained that it's not there fault all my things weren't in the bag she said get a manager on the phone they will refund you I stated to her I had been on the phone for the last hour with DoorDash and could she help me out by calling them she just YELLED NO several times into the phone.... I told her what am I supposed to do as a customer she said I don't know not our problem call DoorDash so I asked her for corporates number she stated that it's only one guy in cooperate and that he's in the hospital and no one will answer your calls . She resorted herself over and over until I told her I'm not a literate I understand what your saying but you only have one person in corporate she said yup and hung up the phone on me. The number she provided me for cooperate is not the correct number it goes to a retirement home. Could the owner or actual manager follow up and help me with this situation. Coming from a service industry I've never had a grown women act like this or treat me this way. When I asked the managers name she said Fiji I asked Gigi ? She said yup to both ? Idk what else to do as a customer read more

The foods been alright sometimes and sub par more. That's takeout though. It's the service that's atrocious. If they tell you 10-15 minutes? Don't leave the house for at least half an hour because they mean 45-55. If they say 25-30 minutes. Go somewhere else because it doesn't matter if you wait half an hour to leave you'll sit in that bleach smelling room (probably because they're busy cleaning 2 hours before close instead of cooking or answering the phone) for at least 45 minutes before you get your food. Do not eat here. Save your time. It's worth more than the mediocre food. read more

Great food. Made when you order so hot and fresh. Lunch special is a great value with good amount of food.

Ordered to go order tonight. BIG MISTAKE!!!! My daughter went to pick it up and they still had not made it and it was supposed to be done by 8:30pm and she got there after that and they had to ask her what was ordered. Ordered a lg hibachi steak med well. She didn't get her veggies. Son-in--law was fine. I ordered 2.dumplings and only had 5 in one and 4 in the other. My steak was supposed to be rare. Was well done and hard to eat because it was tough. Iwasnt able to eat thrsteak and only ate the rice. I didn't realize about the steak til after I got off the phone. I called the restaurant and was told that they had checked and the dumplings were all there when they left. She told me to call my daughter and see if she ate them. WTF don't you think she would have told me when she got here. They insisted they were there, I asked if they thought I waa lying or that they got up and walked away. They continued to say that they had put them all in. Just rude to me and kept basically telling me that I was lying. She told me to come back tomorrow and she would make me the 3 dumplings. Like I would trust anything they would cook for me after that. I expect to hear back from this company about the poor service at the county line rd store in Lakeland, Florida. read more
