    Shrimp, steak and chicken fried rice!!

    They were awesome and we celebrated my mom's 80th Birthday there!! The rice was very delicious. My mom greatly enjoyed her steak as well. Service was amazing

    NY Strip Steak & Chicken

    I visited after hearing about the ownership change and was impressed. There is a dining area and hibachi area with 7 grills. I sat in the regular dining area, but I'm going to try the hibachi area on my next visit. Service was attentive. Fresh sushi! It's hard to find hibachi places with fresh sushi. Hibachi food was seasoned perfectly, portions were generous, and prices were reasonable too. I also met some customers who have been coming here for years so I think that's a good sign for any local spots. Definitely worth checking out!

    Squid salad.

    Such a cozy little spot all tucked away. The gf wanted to treat me to a belated bday treat, and Kirin House had a nice atmosphere. I'm in-between a 4 and 4.5, but I suppose the great sushi prices (and enthusiasm of the hibachi chefs on the other side) pushes the review to a 5. The squid salad was pleasing to the eyes and taste buds. It had a nice arrange of various tidbits of stuff. The squid pieces were small, but it inter-played with the noodles and other ingredients that made it a colorful little appetizer. We shared 4 sushi rolls that had a wowing reaction as they brought it out on a grandeur display board: Crunch dragon: This roll was really crunchy, hence its name. Literally all I see was the tempura flakes on top. The eel sauce provided some flavor to this smaller roll pick. The eel and avocado sort of blended in. There was supposed to be shrimp tempura in this roll, and maybe it was encompassed within (I didn't really examine, I just ate), but I think the shrimp tail ended up in the dynamite roll. *shoulder shrug* Dynamite: The tuna and yellowtail roll was a hearty one, but the flavors were more mild compared to the others. The fishes sat on top with various sauces (spicy mayo, eel, and hot sauce) along with crabstick and avocado. I think the shrimp tail ended up in this roll instead of the crunch dragon mentioned above. Geisha: My favorite! The salmon with cream cheese and avocado created a creaminess in your mouth. There was just something simplistic that made it taste super delicious. The spicy mayo provided a slight kick in flavor too. Kirin all the way: The tempura shrimp, soft shell crab, and avocado made this roll a mouth full. There was a slick kick/spice in flavor I suppose due to the spicy mayo in combination with the eel sauce. I guess "big roll" being specified was pretty accurate. Overall the food was nice, service was good (the sushi chef also shouted greetings our way), and reasonable price. It's a good spot for a nice occasion or a causal dinner since they also have hibachi.

    The owner not only is an awesome chef... But helped his customer!!

    Wow... The food is fantastic and always has been... we have gone for over 15 years and just love it- A family favorite... well tonight the owner of Kirin showed his true awesome colors... Our car died when we were leaving the parking lot- We asked several people for jumper cables and couldn't find anyone and lo and behold, Kim, the owner of current house comes out with jumper cables and pulls his car up on to ours!! We are forever grateful and will continue to support Kirin House!! Thank you!!

    Roach in soup

    We used to love eating at this place but can no longer return. Which is sad because they are one of the better hibachi places that we've been to. I also hate to leave negative reviews, but this needs to be addressed so they can get it together and not have this happen again. Today we sat down - excited to eat here. Got our soup, ate a decent portion of it only to discover a roach floating in it. We canceled our order and got out of there ASAP. We told the waiter and his response was only "OHHH"

    Herman was rude, not very friendly and very out of it. They didn't even have my wine. But everything was great

    Delicious salad

    Visited the Kirin House for the posthumous birthday celebration of my brother-in-law. My mother-in-law has visited this restaurant twice before and wanted the family to enjoy as well, especially for this type of celebration. The Service: Good - The service overall was good. Our waitress and hibachi chef were both friendly. Bad - Here's where things went bad. So, we started to notice that the plates and silverware was slightly dirty. My in-laws wiped off black residue from their plates which was noticeable on the cloth. This prompted everyone to ask for new plates and plastic utensils as well. When the plastic utensils came out, there were strands of hair around them. This honestly made us want to leave, but at this point, drinks were already there and food was already ordered, so we just asked for more plastic utensils and gave it over to God. The Food: I ordered "NY Strip Steak & Shrimp" from the Hibachi Combination ($25.50) with fried rice ($3.95) as well. The email also came with soup & salad. The combination tasted very good, but I don't feel the portion received was worth $25. Most of the meal was rice. For some reason, I feel like I get more for my money at other hibachi restaurants. Overall, the food was great, but the experience this time around was meh. Definitely could've been better. The hair and dirty dishes kinda kept this from being a better experience. 2.5

    We celebrated a birthday today with a party of ten…read more We arrived with a cake that they took for us and put in the refrigerator. The food was good and most of the meals served had a large amount of food. We were a bit disappointed with the amount of food on the Snapper plate we ordered. It was a $50 meal and other meals on the table had twice as much food and those were half the price. The cake was brought out at the end of our meal with clean plates and forks. We will be back to try other meals on the menu, as it was hard to decide today.

I attempted to order the crab and spinach dip with the garlic bread like I typically do at other locations, and my server told me if I were to order it with the garlic bread, it would be an additional charge and I would only get two. I was shocked. I've ordered that and other locations, and that was my first time hearing that I would be charged extra to swap out the bread and then on top of that only receive two pieces. I ordered the Texas redfish pontchartrain with mashed potatoes. I asked if I could add cheese, and I was told yes; however, when it came, there was no cheese, and our server took so long to return, I didn't even bother. In addition, by that time I was already turned off with the bland fish that had several bones, minimal sauce, and overcooked shrimp. I was extremely displeased. I wish I would have just stuck with a fried dish, such as the chicken tenders and shrimp. That would be a safer choice. Both the fried shrimp and chicken tenders were pretty good, but know that they have a kick. The brownie dessert was pretty good. It was actually the highlight of the evening after a disappointing meal. I will never return to this location.

    I was so looking forward to having lunch at one of my very favorite restaurants in Lawrenceville…read moreonly to be so disappointed. I know that they've recently opened another place in Winder, so I'm guessing that is where the owners are spending their time. Upon walking in there was a totally different vibe... not the usual warm welcoming one I've been use too. The woman at the counter wasn't really rude just very matter of fact yet the feeling I got wasn't inviting at all. It was 12:30 and not one table was taken except one lady and a child that I think belonged to the woman at the counter. The menu had changed so I asked if they still had the lunch special to which I was told they no longer had a lunch menu but they had a 1pc catfish with one side and drink. That's what I've always gotten as the lunch special and I was pleasantly surprised to see it had only went up like .90. I ordered my catfish blackened with red beans n rice along with tea. Asked what sauce and I chose tarter sauce and looked for the hot sauce that was usually out on another counter but it wasn't there so I asked for it to be included. My drink use to be half sweet tea and half unsweetened but no more unsweetened tea made there and the sweet is very sweet. My friend and I were dining in and said so when asked yet our food was still in to go containers. As you can tell by my picture the catfish piece was very small compared to what I use to receive but with today's prices I understand....BUT what use to be the BEST RED BEANS N RICE were awful! First they were separated and NO SEASONING at all! For the first time ever I had to go on the hunt for salt n pepper and guess what? No salt n pepper packets. No ketchup for my friends fries which also had changed and not for the better. Then the hushpuppies were tiny grease balls. While we were there only 2 other people picked up to go orders and one other person came in to eat. During lunch it use to be packed! I asked if the owners (delightful people) were at this location or the new one the woman replied both but there's no way either were there because of the food quality and over all atmosphere. I'm so sad and disappointed. I guess I'll have to find another place for my seafood or try the Winder location.

    This place understands seafood the way it's meant to be enjoyed -- fresh, clean, and unpretentious,…read morewith just enough coastal flair to set the mood. The seafood tower is a true showstopper: lobster, crab, oysters, and all the right accompaniments, beautifully presented and genuinely fresh. You can taste the care in the sourcing. The crab claws were tender and sweet, and the sauces complemented rather than overpowered -- the old, honest way, just as it should be. The space itself is bright, airy, and modern, with a relaxed coastal feel. It's spacious, clean, and thoughtfully designed, and the outdoor seating with open windows in warmer weather is a wonderful touch -- inviting, easy, and made for lingering meals. Service deserves special mention. Our server was genuinely kind, attentive, and never rushed, striking that rare balance where you feel well taken care of without being hovered over. The kind of hospitality that lets the food speak for itself. All in all, Seaside Oyster Bar feels like a little seaside escape tucked into Suwanee -- honest seafood, thoughtful presentation, and a relaxed elegance that keeps you coming back. A well-earned 5 stars

I don't usually leave reviews but now with how expensive it is to go out, I keep finding myself disappointed in the quality of food at these types of establishments. Luckily we were sat near the bar so our waiter has to give us decent service since he was easy to wave down. For the price, this was not worth it, unfortunately.
