I work in High Point and have been looking for different lunch places to go that don't take too long. I saw other reviews on this place so I decided to try it and I definitely wasn't disappointed. It seems family owned and the service is good and quick. These egg rolls are amazing and honestly I would go just for them. I didn't get to get a picture of my main meal but this will definitely become a rotation choice, plus they give you great portions for your $$. Glad I tried it out!!

This is truly a hidden GEM! The front of the place is low-key. Once you enter this, you are immediately taken back but the decor. It is smaller than what I thought it would be but very comfortable and cozy. The service was impeccable! She did an outstanding job communicating with us and making us feel at home. I ordered Hibachi Chicken and shrimp. It came out perfect! The shrimp were huge and the chicken was plenty. It also came with rice and veggies The veggies tasted so fresh...damn I wish we ate were more than once before leaving. Seriously! YOU MUST GO HERE!!

Food is excellent here, however, extremely overpriced and very small portions. You can go to an actual Japanese steakhouse and get twice as much food for the same price.

Yum! Wonderful hidden slice of heaven. Hibachi steak and fried rice.

This place is a wonderful hidden gem in Archdale. The food is absolutely delicious, the atmosphere is wonderful and the owners are so very kind. The portion size was incredible and the steak is melt in your mouth good. I don't usually get hibachi steak out of fear it will be tough, but I never have to worry about that @ Okinawa!!! YUM YUM YUM!!!

Excellent local Japanese restaurant. It's great to have options like this that aren't chain restaurants. Hibachi shrimp was great.

It's ok. For dinner it's over priced for the food they give you. Don't think I will be back. Food is greasy

Went here with the family over Christmas break. There were 8 of us so we got the table to…read moreourselves. We arrived a little after 5pm and the wait was 5-10 minutes. They get busy quick so arrive early. The food was great and not too salty like most hibachi places. The waitress was excellent and efficient. I ordered the filet and shrimp. Grilled exactly as I asked. Our chef was personable and attentive. The food portions were large as usual but splitting a dinner was worth it so I recommend this. The starters of coup and salad were very good, and the ginger dressing was so good! The only negative feedback I have is that this place could use a facelift. It doesn't appear to be clean just because it's old. The bathrooms were clean though. I know through Covid businesses are struggling to break even again but I hope it's in their plans for the future to remodel and/restore the inside and possibly outside.

It appears the building was repurposed from a prior business, and inside is smaller, but the food does not disappoint. The chicken and the shrimp are my usual. I love that you get soup, rice, salad, and noodles . The food is delicious and the prices are good, I always have lunch leftover for tomorrow

The selection is honestly quite good. There's appetizers, teriyaki (would recommend the salmon!), hibachi, sushi appetizers, all pretty good honestly! The sushi has good variety and I liked that each plate on the conveyer only comes with like two pieces so you can try so many more different options. Loved the experience, loved the food, loved the vibes.

In the end, I just don't feel my original 5 holds up. The restaurant is absolutely a super cool concept, tech forward, and fun for groups and people new to the sushi scene to try some things. When it comes to the actual eating experience though, the taste just doesn't hit home for me the way it did when it opened. Every sushi roll I got was so over-coated in sauces that it's all you could taste in your bite. That's either a heavy handed chef, or a mask for flavors you might not enjoy. In my mouth unfortunately, it just makes a texture-less mess, and part of what I enjoy about sushi is the layering of textures. Not that I expect to be blown away by AYCE sushi, but I had hoped for better than what I got. More simple nigiri pieces were ok. The seared tuna wasn't seared at all really, no brown carbonization, just a little grey. That doesn't impart the desired flavor. Hibachi options were also just fine, when originally, that was a strong point here. That people who didn't absolutely love sushi would still have good option to order. There was one vegetarian roll that included strawberry, mango, avocado that was very good, but again, the amount of sweet chili sauce poured over it was overbearing. I found myself scraping it off any way I could. Finally, one very annoying thing. The items on the conveyor didn't have any labels. Not even our server knew what some of them are. It's common practice to put a little flag before a row of items goes out so people know what they are. It creates food waste, or shuts people with some kind of allergy off entirely due to not knowing what things are. All in all, the novelty of the eye candy has worn off for me, and I just don't enjoy the food as much as other options in the area, even in the AYCE sushi space. But, this is definitely an experience a first timer would love, and it's fun for families.
