    Teriyaki Chicken with vegetables instead of rice
    Benjamin P.

    My wife and I have driven by Hoshi for years but never stopped in to eat. After eating there twice in 2 weeks it is quickly becoming one of my local favorites. We were there at off time (2-3:00pm) but the service was quick and they food was prepared fresh in a couple minutes. My wife always gets the low carb option (veg instead of rice - $1.00 extra) and it was fresh and prepared correctly. I have had the steak with low carb prepared rare and the udon noodles with steak and both were excellent. My wife had the salmon one visit and teriyaki chicken another and she loved both dishes. Egg rolls are standard fare, but were freshly fried to order. Each meal comes with a 4oz shrimp sauce which is more than enough. Restaurant was clean and service was excellent.

    First time trying this place and it is so good. Called in my order and picked it up through the drive thru. Plenty of food and so delicious!

    Beware! First of all, the food was bland & watery. But that's not the half of it...I paid with a credit card for take out, and I did not add a tip to my ticket. There was a tip jar on the counter for cash tips, and I figured I would put a tip there depending on how quickly my food got to me, which I did on my way out the door. The next morning when I checked my card, imagine my surprise to see that they added their own tip to my credit card! I wrote the total on the slip after signing it, there was no doubt as to what I was paying. THIS IS THEFT! I WILL NEVER STEP FOOT IN THIS ESTABLISHMENT AGAIN, AND NEITHER SHOULD YOU!!

    Align your expectations, this is not a fancy restaurant like Seaboy down the road or a greasy…read moreburger joint. Embrace it for what it is! My wife and I had each visited Japanese steakhouses like this before we met, but somehow neither of us had been to one during our 18 years together. Then we discovered Noboru! We enjoyed our first visit so much that we returned just two weeks later. It isn't overly fancy--it offers the classic Benihana-style experience, with the chef preparing everything directly in front of you--but the food is tender, flavorful, and filling. Of course, you also get dinner and a show! The service was spot-on during both visits. We were always well taken care of, and everyone was friendly, attentive, and welcoming. I ordered the larger filet dinner both times and didn't change a thing. When something is that good, why mess with it? My wife ordered the steak and shrimp during our first visit, but she enjoyed my filet so much that she upgraded to the filet and shrimp on our return. Quality cuts of meat, skillful preparation, excellent seasoning, friendly service, and an entertaining experience have made Noboru a new favorite in our restaurant rotation. We thoroughly enjoyed both visits, had no complaints whatsoever, and will absolutely be back very soon. To those about to nosh, we are jealous!

    I made a reservation for a party of five for 7:00. We arrived before 7:00 and then e was nobody at…read morethe reception desk. After about 10!minutes someone showed up, but we weren't seated until 7:15. The waitress came several minutes later and took our order. We had soup and salad then we waited 40 more minutes for the cook to finally show up! After being told several times that the cook was on the way - we left at 7:55! Bad management in my opinion.
