Sizzling Lunch - Teppanyaki Near Me - Fremont, California

We randomly picked this place looking for a different Japanese place for lunch. First impression was that it was one of those fancy places with small portions. Wrong! We were surprised on the portions, presentation and how delicious our orders were. Two in our party shared the Kalbi plate and I had the Chicken and Waffle. We both couldn't finish our meals. Looking forward to coming back and now we know what to expect. Thank you for being close to our home! read more

Fresh and hot food, love the sauces on the table! You customise your meal based on your liking, what's not to like? Clean and well maintained location. And the servers are very attentive and fast! read more

Located in a small plaza next to Bruster's. Parking can be scarce here but not impossible to find. I was looking for a non-fried meat option with curry sauce sizzling plate but there are none. So I decided to go with the curry powder beef sizzling plate because I thought garlic beef is too basic. I couldn't be more wrong, curry powder just didn't hit the same and I tried my bf's garlic beef and it was delicious! They use fried minced garlic bits. read more

Sizzling Lunch - Kimchi Beef Pepper Rice - Teppanyaki Near Me - Fremont, California

I came here with my coworkers and it was pretty tasty. Interesting concept with the proteins not cooked and cooking in front of you on your own plate by stirring it around. (hence the name, sizzling lunch) I chose a beef plate and added an egg and kimchi. There were a lot of options but since it was my first time, I didn't want to over do it with additions. I'll be back to try other dishes, the service was great and fast. There was plenty of seating and the music playing. read more

Sizzling Lunch - Teppanyaki Near Me - Fremont, California

Great food, friendly staff, and a clean open atmosphere, I found this to be an amazing lunch spot. I went with a party of 4 on Saturday around 1:30pm and didn't face too long of a wait. Menu and ordering is done through QR code and staff is available to explain. You get quite a facial when the food comes and patience is needed if you don't want to burn your mouth since it comes out HOT. Appetizers were cheese corn and takoyaki. We also had the beef udon, garlic beef pepper rice, steak cube pepper rice, and pork katsu with curry sauce which were all tasty. Steak cubes were slightly tough, and the udon benefitted from adding garlic shoyu sauce from the table to balance the flavor. We all liked it and 3 of 4 had leftovers. Overall, would recommend and return! read more

Wow what a wonderful experience seeing the raw food get cooked by itself. Its a revolutionary way of eating. I loved the cheese fries and the texture was supremely delicious in a way so satisfying that Only this place could accomplish. A one in a million idea of the century! read more

I took the photo before the meat was cooked but honestly, I crave Sizzling Lunch maybe once a month and each time I leave full and satisfied. Each portion is good for one or two people (depending how hungry you are) and it's so flavorful. I also would recommend any of the appetizers but my favorite one is the cheese fries. The staff is very attentive and the orders come in fairly quick. I also say that you order through a QR code and pay in the front making it easy and convenient. read more

Came in for lunch and Sizzling Lunch never disappoints! The iron plate comes out piping hot, and mixing the sauce with the rice and meat right at the table is so satisfying. Great flavor, generous portions, and super fast service. Highly recommend! read more

Went around 12:50pm on a Sunday, not crowded at all. Good service, tasty food and clean dining area. read more

SO good, as always! Service was speedy, accurate and professional. I have been here several times and it never failed: always taste good. The most fun part is to wait for the bottom of the rice to get crispy. Ambiance was casual, and be prepared to have to wash your hair and shower afterwards. Once you enter, it is all sizzling!!! read more

Sizzling Lunch - Salmon peper rice, cheese fries and spicy Spicy Garlic Beef Pepper Rice - Teppanyaki Near Me - Fremont, California

For those who were looking for an alternative to Pepper Lunch, look no further--Sizzling Lunch is the perfect replacement. Flavors, taste, and service was almost 1:1 to the original. Honestly the difference may just be "Pepper" versus "Sizzling" in their names. We had a late lunch, so we ordered only one dish but for two tiny people. Let me tell you the portions here are generous. Im definitely glad we only ordered one order of the Beef Garlic Plate. Flavors were spot on, didn't need any extra seasoning and it was flavorful right off of the plate. I did add a bit of kimchi to the top and it honestly rounded out the dish in my opinion. Don't be afraid to experiment with their vast options of toppings! Overall definitely will be coming back and food felt clean/healthy for a restaurant. Highly recommend. read more

Sizzling Lunch - Beef Garlic Beef Pepper Rice with Kimchi - Teppanyaki Near Me - Fremont, California

We were down in Fremont and wanted to have lunch with a friend after a meeting. We looked at a bunch of different restaurants after we realized the one that we had planned on going to was closed on Tuesdays. Sizzling Lunch has a decent yelp score and offered enough variety to satisfy the three of us. Two of us entered the restaurant and were greeted immediately. We asked for a table for three and were directed to a four-top. The hostess asked if we had dined there before and we had not. She explained to us that we could order from our phones via QR Code but that she also had a hard copy of the menu that we could look at (pictured below). Water glasses and a carafe of ice water along with set-ups were delivered to the table while we perused the menu. We decided on two appetizers and three dishes to share. To facilitate this, we also asked for three bowls and three pairs of chopsticks. When the food came, we had it placed in the middle of the table. The entrees are served on a cast iron flat pan sitting on top of a wooden platform. Each one of us stirred up the ingredients in the pan in front of us. All of the veg and proteins are served raw, but the cast iron pan is sizzling hot, which is perfect for cooking the ingredients. The cooked rice also forms a nice crunchy crust similar to Chinese Clay Pot Rice, Korean Dolsot or Spanish Paella. Each of the dishes we ordered was very satisfying and easily earn a score of 5/5. Each of the dishes that we ordered was delicious. The quality and quantity were both very good and satisfying. Service was okay and could easily be improved with a minimum of effort. With the hostess and a server working front of the house, it was unknown what they were doing when they weren't present in the dining room. Perhaps they had a role in the kitchen as well. They both served food to tables. If they simply slowed their pace after dropping off dishes and looked carefully at the guests at every table, it would be easy to see if someone wanted to ask for something. one big ask that we made was to have the music volume turned down. Until it was, conversation was difficult. Afterwards, it was very easy to chat while we enjoyed our food. We like the concept, the menu and the execution. We will definitely be back again. read more

One of my favorite restaurants to get either lunch or dinner at, I either get the beef pepper rice or beef with udon. My friends and I like to share the cheese fries for the table. Service is quite fast once you order your food via your phone. This location is smaller than the one in SJ, has fewer seating but still the same quality of food. They offer many other options from steak, pork belly, sausage, salmon and more. I like coming here and would recommend. Definitely recommend cooking your food as soon as it comes out so it cooks. read more

This was a solid 3.5 star experience for me but it was totally based on what I ordered. I got the unagi rice plate and my partner got the beef pepper rice. Both plates came out sizzling hot as its namesake portends and it was good! But the unagi to rice ratio was lacking for me and the unagi comes out already cooked so it's not really taking advantage of the hot stone plate. I love the bright and airy ambience and how high tech their service is. You order via and iPad and if you love customization, you will absolutely adore this place. Next time, I'll be getting the beef platter. read more

This is my go to place. Years ago I really enjoyed pepper lunch, but when I found his lunch, I never went back. Convenient with a bunch of locations is always clean. The ordering used to be from an iPad but now it is a QR code, which is super fast. The food comes out quick. The servings are plentiful and everything is fresh. The appetizers are great. You can't go wrong with literally anything on the menu. The cheese fries are a definite must when it comes to the appetizers. The staff is always friendly and I really like that they check in on you periodically. Adding more items to your order is really easy through the QR code and it makes everything super convenient. read more

Sizzling Lunch - horrible picture bc steam - Teppanyaki Near Me - Fremont, California

This is my husband and i's go to spot if we are craving some grilled meats but don't want to splurge on AYCE kbbq. Sizzling lunch is Japanese food with a Korean influence. Our favorite item on the menu is the garlic butter beef with rice. We pair this with chicken karaage, fries, kimchi, and corn cheese. A wonderful mix of crunchy, sweet, salty, and everything in between. The service is top notch over here. The servers are attentive and friendly. They're quick to get all your needs met. That's refills, extra plates, etc! Come here for a nice sizzling lunch or dinner :) read more

Sizzling Lunch is one of my favorite spots in Fremont! I come here all the time and the food comes out hot and fresh on a sizzling plate, and everything is packed with flavor.

First off, I have had Pepper Lunch in Milpitas and I low-key thought this was Pepper Lunch when I chose this place for a work lunch. The concept is definitely the same which is good but man I was surprised. [[ Location ]] This is a "new-ish" plaza in Fremont with a ton of parking. Beware of homeless people wandering about as I saw one near me both when I arrived and left. They are harmless but some are carrying a ton of alcohol bottles so it's a bit unsettling. [[ Restaurant ]] The place is really big and since its new, I found the establishment very clean and airy. Great place to have a meal. Ordering is all automated by a QR code on your table. [[ Food ]] If you had pepper lunch or Japanese Teppanyaki before, you basically get a sizzling plate grill with rice/meat that I usually mix up when I get it. It cooks really fast and the meal is hot and delicious. My colleague and I ordered the following: 1.) Hiyayakko Appetizer (Cold Tofu with Ponzu) 2.) Kyuuri (Japanese Cucumber with Ponzu) 3.) Garlic Beef Pepper Rice x2 Keep in mind the lunch can add up really fast as the Garlic Pepper Rice was $17.50 and each add on such as Cheese, Garlic, Onion, etc. are around $1.50 and up. Overall I thought it was good and comparable to Pepper Lunch in Milpitas. No complaints here FYI = This place stinks up your clothes/hair really quickly. I changed out of all my clothes immediately when I got home because I smelled like the restaurant. read more

Waiting 38 minutes for the garlic pepper rice plate is a little too long for my liking. Im pretty sure they forgot about my order because the table next to me(i was eating alone) sat down after me, ordered after me, and also got their food before me. The food was amazing but the service was subpar. The service staff was not very attentive either but they were very nice. UPDATE: upon paying for my order the lady at the cashier acknowledged that it took too long for my order and gave me a discount without me even mentioning anything. That flipped the script for me as they definitely made up for the earlier mistake. read more

The food was so delicious. Service was nice and the food came out very fast Would comeback .

We love this spot and the service is always amazing!!! Melissa gives amazing service :-)

Great, friendly, and fast service! The store is nice and spacious both inside and out. Parking is easy since it's located in a large plaza, so there's no need to worry about finding a spot. They offer a wide variety of items, but almost everything comes with an extra charge. The food is good and simple, though definitely overpriced--especially if you add toppings. My husband and I ordered the same item, except his was the "garlic spicy" version and cost a few dollars more. Why? I honestly don't know--just garlic and powder, I guess. We ended up adding more sauces from the table (which were free) to enhance the flavor, so we definitely won't be ordering that upgrade again. That said, we'd still come back since it's an easy and quick lunch spot. GOODLUCK! read more

My husband and I came here for the second time after I was fasting for 15+ hours. We had come before which was our first time and we really didn't know what to expect. I think that we didn't order as we should have the first time. This time we both ordered extra garlic butter I added red onions, and a side of kimchi. My husband went with the spicy kimchi beef and I went with the original beef no salt. I added some shoyu garlic a little teriyaki-- after it all mixed and it was so delicious. My favorite was getting the crispy parts at the bottom. My husband really enjoyed his meal as well. We will definitely be back. read more

Prices overall seem a bit high but you do walk out of there with a leftover box and food coma read more
