We were seated right away and given time to look over the menu before the Hibachi Chef arrived. I love how hibachi restaurants sit you with other people because we were seated next to a very nice couple celebrating a birthday. Once we placed our orders, the Chef came to our table and started the grill. Andreas, our Chef, did a great job entertaining us all while preparing our food. He was funny and very personable. I decided on the Steak & Chicken Combo which included Fried Rice and Vegetables. I also was able to enjoy my friend's Shrimp as well. The food was amazing! The steak was cooked perfectly and was very flavorful and the shrimp was tender and fresh. Overall, the food and the service were a 10/10! If I'm ever in the area, I'd definitely return!

Located right next to the Hampton Roads Coliseum, it's the perfect spot if you're in the area for an event. I went with two of my girls, and we had such a great time from start to finish. Our chef was so much fun -- exactly what you want from a hibachi experience. He kept us entertained the whole time, and the energy at the table just made the night even better. I ordered the filet with hibachi rice, and everything was cooked perfectly. The steak was tender, flavorful, and the rice was just as good as I remembered (honestly, that hibachi rice always hits ). Portions were generous too -- I ended up taking half my meal home, and it reheated really well the next day, which was a huge plus. Between the fun atmosphere, great service, and really solid food, this is definitely a spot I would go back to -- especially if I'm in the Coliseum area again. Honestly, I just wish I had a place like this closer to home because it was that good.

After a few minutes, we were ready to order. I selected one of their lunch dishes which we get in the afternoon. It was the shrimp tempura lunch box with french fries. It was good for the most part but lacked seasoning. Sophia said the same thing on her order which was the same but with fried rice. Nonetheless, I walked away full.

This place used to be called Yuma Sushi, which I reviewed nicely, but I never thought things would change so much with just a name change. Now, the restaurant's decor is very nice, but the so-called hostess didn't seem to please seat us. On top of that, she sat us at a table right in front of the open kitchen, dropped some menus on the table, and walked away. So the greeting was not lovely, and we were the only ones there. The restaurant had a musky smell to it, which I found out later to be the remaining booth. Now, the menu items are ala carte, dinner items, and combination meals--and very expensive. I needed help deciding and figuring out how the combinations work, so I settled for the chicken ramen and some fried sushi, which I regret getting. My wife had this chicken stir-fry, something she seems to like but wouldn't miss if she never had it again. I must say that the Sapparo beer I had was good and cold. The ramen was not favorable at all, and that musky smell in the air was the broth. The fried egg roll had a coating that tasted like peas, and I hate peas--but I managed to eat it anyway because I would have left there hungry. I just could not stomach that chicken ramen; it was just bad. There was no taste or seasoning. While waiting for our food, I read reviews on Yelp of the place. The server heard it. When she came over to collect our dishes after we ate, she rudely told me how clean the restaurant was; I asked her why she was yelling at me. She says I'm not yelling; I'm just telling you (she was yelling at me). Slams the check down, takes the rest of our dishes, and walks away. I was surprised my wife didn't go into defense mode, but she felt bad for the place because no one was coming in there. The total for that mess was $76.23. I did not return the rudeness to this server, but I paid for the meal anyway, and I wish I hadn't. Never pay for lousy service, and never go to this place; it's just wrong. Happy Yelping.

Sushi King is honestly one of my go to spots whenever I want a good all you can eat sushi experience. The location right in the heart of Hampton is super convenient, and the food has always been worth the visit. Everything we ordered was fresh and honestly 10/10. I'll be honest, I was hesitant to come back after seeing the video circulating online about the cockroach incident. But I'm really glad I gave them another chance. We were informed that the incident was real, but they immediately took the proper steps to handle the issue professionally before reopening. I actually appreciated the transparency, and the way they handled everything says a lot about how they respond to concerns and take customer experience seriously. The service during our visit was amazing. Our server took her time explaining everything and was incredibly kind throughout the meal. From the looks of it, the restaurant seems to be back at full capacity, which was nice to see. The space also has a good mix of cozy booths and more open seating depending on the vibe you want. Definitely happy I came back. read more

I went to this Sushi King location last weekend and my girlfriend and I both had a wonderful time. The restaurant is very clean and comfortable, and the service was great and quite friendly! I ordered the hibachi steak and she ordered hibachi chicken and shrimp; for the prices, our portions were HUGE, and of course we didn't mind because the food was excellent. They also have a great selection of appetizers, drinks, and desserts, which all looked really tempting. I actually didn't try any sushi on this visit -- its not something I typically order anywhere -- but I was so impressed that I'm really looking forward to coming back and giving it a try! read more
