This week on my birthday, a friend of mine booked Morimoto's and we went after work. It's near Gideon's and across from the former Sprinkles Cupcakes location. We checked in early and they were able to seat us quickly at a table. The restaurant has an open kitchen concept - the staff explained that the kitchen is split into different stations, which means the food comes out as it's prepared fresh from each station. My friend went with the monthly special dish and cocktail. I chose the tonkotsu ramen and we shared the ribs for the appetizer. Food came out quickly and it was all fresh and delicious. Ribs were tender and well seasoned without being too salty or overpowering in any way. Tonkotsu ramen had good flavor and was on par with other ramens I've had other places. Pricing varies based on the dishes, but it is possible to find something here for everyone. Our waitress was very on top of things and she made sure we had enough water. She even made sure my friend got her credit for the monthly dish, as they have a stamp and passport event going on where trying the monthly dish guarantees you a stamp in their passport thing, which can be redeemed for prizes later on. In terms of parking, you could pick any of the lots of park in. Closest options would be Lime or Orange garage in terms of walking length.

Very good! My…read morehusband and I were in town for a mini vacation to celebrate his birthday and of course while we're on vacation we have to find the most amazing places to dine. I did a quick Google search as well as a Yelp search and this place came up and the reviews were fairly well first of all I love Hibachi so I'm gamed to try every Hibachi place in the world nevertheless I did call to make reservations but I believe during this certain time of the year which was I think it was a Labor Day weekend or the weekend before Labor Day... Nevertheless reservations weren't needed but I did make them just in case. We arrived via Uber which was a quick 10 minute ride from our stay from the Sheraton Vistana. We walked in was greeted immediately and overall everything was a 10 out of 10. I don't think I have any complaints if you love Hibachi and love the family style sit around type thing around the Hibachi Grill definitely check this place out very chic very picturesque. Seems like it's very clean as wel! I highly recommend this spot. If we're ever back in town I think we're going to definitely stop by here again and dine. I almost forgot I told them that we were celebrating my husband's birthday and the chef from our experience ended our night with a fluffy cupcake a one candle lit... Those at our table sung happy birthday to him it was super duper sweet and I love when restaurants do this...such a cherry on top of a great dining experience! Have fun and enjoy life :)

So I've been told for years to come here as it's the best of the best hibachi and now after this…read morevisit I can safely say that the place we had been going to before it closed was just sooo much better! First off I must address the elephant in the room their manager Tony who likes to stand in the archway between the dinning rooms and send text messages like it's going out of style, then after he was done with one of his texting sessions I watched him use not a very nice and kinda demeaning tone to one of the employees to go tell them to do something and let me say I noticed this across the table through a cooking chef so it would seem that he isn't very nice and if that weren't enough at the end of our meal our wonderful server Sammie was talking to us and she totally made our visit and was very friendly mid conversation with her Tony comes up and then she stopped in sentence and like walked away as Tony came up I said that she made our visit and he could clearly careless as he then put this QR code in front of me and told me to do a google review I replied I don't do that I use Yelp and that instantly made him get real short with me and walk away, so needless to say that guy has some serious issues as a manager and I feel bad for his staff because it definitely seems like he's one of those managers you don't wanna have. While I might be totally wrong about this as I don't work here and I've only been here once that's just what I noticed what I saw and the energy that I felt. So our food was good but I must say it was just typical hibachi and let's start with the onion soup it was ok kinda bland and needed more mushroom, the salad was good but they didn't give us very much as the server walked away with a very full bowl from a large table, my fried rice and veggies were good but mostly tasted like garlic butter, my steak and shrimp were cooked perfectly and flavorful definitely the better part of the mean but I found it strange that my steak came with a few pieces of potato's I've never seen this before at hibachi and they I had to ask them for ginger sauce for my shrimp as I guess they don't give it out. My hot sake and Kirin were both yummy and I just say the hot sake bottle was on the smaller side but it wasn't over priced so that part definitely added to the night! Our chef was good he didn't do anything out of the normal stuff just the regular the heart beat the egg trick and the volcano but it's all good a basic ambiance is fun sometimes too! Overall food was decent but definitely something that didn't leave an impression on me as other hibachi restaurants have, that mixed with what we noticed go on I wouldn't come back especially with soo much competition in the area I'd rather go there!

Arriving, the exterior and interior is beautiful! They really made the restaurant with a relaxing and intimate dining feel that we enjoyed. Arriving at the table, there was a sign that said Reserved for (name). It was so sweet! We scanned a QR code and was able to get our food within 10 minutes of ordering. I was very pleased at how fast that was! Taste wise? Wow. Everything was very fresh. I loved the nigiri set. I also loved the oysters and truffle salmon cold appetizers. Using the restroom, I noticed they also have the Japanese toilets. They didn't have the wall panel or the seat warmer that goes with the toilets but still very cool. I would definitely come back.

I was surprised to learn that it has already been open for 8 years -- the owners clearly take great pride in it, as everything is so well maintained. The prices are fair, not only because of the portion sizes but also because of the quality and flavor. Even the miso soup was served in a full, generously sized bowl -- and that's just the soup, not even the main course! I would gladly visit Orlando again just to dine at this place.

You order at a kiosk when you enter, the process is quick and easy, and once seated they promptly bring everything you need -- chopsticks, utensils, and all the ramen essentials. The food comes out fast and is delivered right to your table. I ordered the Golden Ginger signature ramen and it was outstanding. The broth was rich and flavorful with just the right amount of spice, and the housemade, hand-pulled noodles were perfectly cooked and delicious. We also tried the Hokkaido cream waffles. They're less like a traditional waffle and more reminiscent of a Twinkie-style cream cake, but since we'd had Hokkaido cream desserts in Osaka before, it felt authentic and nostalgic -- and absolutely tasty. I'd order them again without hesitation. My husband had the dango sweet rice cake, which was very good, but next time I'd still choose the waffles for dessert. They also offer a nice variety of drinks and teas to round out the meal. I love the super fruit green tea. The ambiance is warm and welcoming, the service is excellent, and the whole experience feels thoughtfully run. We'll happily be back.

They do take reservations so if it's a holiday or a busy weekend, I'd suggest making a reservation. The restaurant is good for all occasions: families, date night, birthdays....all the days!

The water here is clean tasting. To save the turtles they do not provide straws. I usually request the tempura and CA roll dine in and the rest is packed to go. (I get full fast). I always request to replace the side salad with the miso soup instead and they are ok with doing that. The tempura is lightly battered (2 shrimp, 2 green bean, eggplant , sweet potato). The tempura sauce is delicious. The CA roll is ok I mean its krab, avocado. Nothing fancy. It is rolled in masago. Staff here they have tendency to forget to refill water so try to request 2-3 glasses in advance when they ask for drink orders. Always check out the menu board - The specials can be interesting. My fave on that board that they offer sometimes is the beef tendon with tofu for like $6 ish. Love it with a side of white rice . The sauce is delicious. Reminds me of beef gyudon sauce. This place can get busy with japanese customers - especially lunch hours. The lunch bento specials only are for lunch. Dinner do not have bento specials. They are closed for summer vacation and will re open on June 19th - I am not sure the start date of the vacation - I know its sometime early June.
