Tokyo Lobby offers a good variety of items that stem from raw fish like Sashimi and also cater to people who do not like raw fish. They also have an AYCE option for sushi if you're into that. They have a lot of options. The sushi menu has a good variety of rolls, sashimi, and nigiri. They also have a combination menu for things like teriyaki beef or chicken and also a smaller sushi like a California roll or a spicy tuna roll. The combination comes with free soup and rice with the Teriyaki offering. The portion size is actually very generous for beef and chicken. It's also very tender. It's a very good value for what it is. The service here is pretty good. They come check on you often and refill your water. They make sure your dining experience is nice. The interior feels very bright and white. It's not a dimly lit romantic vibe, it's like a "I'm here to eat" kind of vibe. The parking can be a bit tough since there are a lot of businesses are in this plaza. Overall, good value for the price. The sashimi was good and the teriyaki is tender. The only downside is that they don't give enough rice for the meat. read more

Great customer service, staff's always checking in with us to see how we're doing, very bubbly, SUPER CLEAN interior, and I know that you can really get California Rolls anywhere, and I don't usually JUST crave for California Rolls, but this is one place I'm always excited to get California rolls! Not to mention their sushi and their cooked dishes are fantastic as well. You won't be disappointed. I've been coming here since before the renovation and it still has the perfect family dining experience. I just went yesterday, but I'm going again tomorrow (Not to mention, I just came back from Japan last week and this is one of the most affordable, reliable fix ) read more

Tokyo Lobby has a special place in my heart from when I was first came here in the late 1980's after relocating from the South. Although I live relatively close to this location, this was my first visit in years. My friends and I came for lunch before our Dodgers game outing. The restaurant seems newer, and brighter but smaller than I remembered. There was ample room for the Saturday lunch crowd and we were seated fairly quickly. The extensive menu offered many delicious options. We went with the lunch combo with sushi. I had the tempura and teriyaki chicken while my friend had the same but with teriyaki beef. We noticed that the teriyaki sauce seemed sweeter than most places. Our meal came with miso soup and a simple salad. The bento boxes looked appetizing and were delicious! Our service was at a good pace and our server very helpful! read more

Hubby was craving Japanese so we decided to give Tokyo Lobby a try again. We haven't found a good Japanese restaurant since the owners of the mom and pop restaurant we use to go to retired. The taste of the food isn't the same with the new owners. We use to dine at Tokyo Lobby frequently, but the quality of the food started going south so we stopped coming. Also the wait time was crazy. The interior of the restaurant has been upgraded. So much brighter and not quite as cramped. As I mentioned...it's been quite a few years. I was not terribly impressed with my salmon and tempura combo. The salmon was slightly overcooked and the tempura did not taste fresh. It didn't have that light crispness. Hubby enjoyed his beef teriyaki, sashimi and sushi combo. He said the sashimi was very fresh. Dinner combos are served with rice, soup and salad. Overall the meal was satisfying...but not the best. read more

I typically order food to go and my normal order is ribeye a la carte and C special. It's really hit or miss if they can get my ribeye correctly made. I always ask for medium rare but like today it's cooked well done with little teriyaki sauce. Even the C special had very little teriyaki sauce and the chicken was dry which makes it difficult to eat. It's a mom and pop store and I want to continue to support it but they really need to get my order correct or it'll close soon. It's a classic from the 70's or 80's. We used to go all the time when they were in San Gabriel. It's sad at 8pm there were a total of 5 patrons. So basically they are missing the boat in customer service and food quality. Please do better for your customers. This place has ample parking and has recently gotten an outdoor and indoor facelift. read more

Supposedly Manager we had order a new plate chicken was very dry ... We onlybwanted 1 piece chicken with tempura and wouldn't change it! As a paying customer we should be able to get what we want ... He was very rude and very unpolite... Don't recommend this place with managers that don't comply with what you want as a paying customer.... read more

First time coming to this sushi spot and I can already say I'll definitely be back! From the moment we walked in, the vibe was welcoming and the customer service was top tier. Everyone was so attentive and friendly, which made the experience even better. The food came out incredibly fast and everything tasted fresh and delicious. The teriyaki chicken was honestly one of my favorite things I tried so tender and flavorful, it literally melted in my mouth. And don't skip dessert because the scoop of ice cream at the end was absolutely amazing and the perfect sweet touch to finish the night. What really impressed me was how everything was just on point: the service, the food, the atmosphere, and even the prices. It's rare to find a place that gives such a great experience while still being affordable. I left happy, full, and already looking forward to my next visit! read more

The chicken and beef teriyaki combination plate was served hot, tender, and coated in a rich, delicious teriyaki sauce that paired perfectly with the steaming bowl of rice. The fresh side salad was a great, crisp addition to balance out the savory flavors. Great food, clean setup, and quick service. read more

I came here again with family, and the food tasted good as usual. There was parking nearby, and we got seated immediately. The facades at the Hacienda Center got renovated, and Tokyo Lobby modernized its own interior space. As such, the booths and flooring don't have darkened wood anymore. No longer having a retro feel reminiscent of the time during its establishment in 1979, the restaurant now has lighter wood flooring and new tables. I got a lunch combination with eight California roll pieces and chicken teriyaki ($17.95). We also shared a salmon skin roll ($7.95), which consisted of four big pieces. Initially, I got mixed tempura instead of chicken teriyaki, but they made the switch in a few minutes. The bento included salad, rice, and miso soup. You get plenty of rice, and the California rolls were big. The sliced skin-on chicken thighs tasted juicy and not too sweet from the teriyaki sauce. The salmon skin in the rolls had a strong flavor with sliced cucumber. It was intimidating to eat in one bite. read more

Have been eating here for ages and it always hits the spot if I'm looking for Americanized Japanese food. Service is always friendly and the food comes out quickly. I usually order the special bento, which comes with a little of everything so I don't have make a decision! The only con? My sis was disappointed the place is now lighter instead of the dark wood paneled seating area. read more

We haven't been to Tokyo Lobby in years, but we've missed it a lot. We used to frequent their other location in San Gabriel many years ago. This location is tucked inside the plaza next to the Meet Fresh and 99 Ranch Market on Colima and Azusa in Hacienda Heights. We visited a few days ago to celebrate our older daughter's birthday and were pleasantly surprised to see that the interior has been renovated. It is now much brighter and more comfortable than it was years ago. Their menu features several dinner sushi specials and a wide variety of "Boat" options, including the Tokyo Boat, Golden Lobster Boat, Sapporo Boat, Poseidon Boat, Lucky Boat, and Sashimi Boat. We ultimately decided on the Happy Boat for four people ($143.80). We requested no rice, and it came loaded with fresh Sashimi, sushi, a Crunch California Roll, a Rainbow Roll, and a Salmon Roll. The meal also included soup and salad for everyone (note: there is a two-order minimum for the boats). While it took a little while for the chefs to prepare such a gigantic spread, it was well worth the wait. The sushi was incredibly fresh and delicious. When we mentioned it was our daughter's birthday, our server kindly brought out a complimentary tempura matcha dessert with a candle. We also received complimentary ice cream that comes standard with the boat. It was a wonderful experience, and we're so glad we came back. read more

Eeek. Quality has been going down. We ordered some nigiri the last time we were here and my daughter couldn't even chew the tuna piece as it was so hard. Bento boxes are still ok, but I am weary about the fish options. read more

I've never been here during the week and am happy there is such a great selection to choose from. There also many promotions for free ice cream or soft drinks. New desserts include Macarons and dessert specials. It's not quite the same as the former location in San Gabriel, but fairly close in quality. read more

All round great experience highly recommended service is great quick getting in and out

Came back on 6/13/26 to celebrate our twins birthday and our daughter's graduation. I emailed to make a reservation since there is 25 of us. The email exchange was good experience, I was emailing someone named Julie. She confirmed our reservation quickly and I thought all was good. When we got to the restaurant, to my surprise, we were not on the list! What??? Luckily, they were able to accommodate us in spite of it. We arrived at 5pm so that is a good time to come dine to avoid the crowds and having to wait. Service was really great, they were friendly and took such good care of our big family. The food was delicious as always. Only complaint is that we asked for our steak to be medium rare and our meats came out well done so it was not to our liking and it was tougher than usual. Our other table had their steak under cooked so the steak was definitely off but the chicken was the star! It was moist, tender and juicy. We ordered a total of 5 boats! And ramen for one of the kids in our party. They also helped with serving the cake which was very nice. The staff were friendly and really made our celebrations memorable. The ambiance was relaxing and it was good timing when we went bc it wasn't crowded so there were plenty of room for us and allowed us to be loud as well. Thank you Tokyo Lobby for providing us good service, great food and happy memories. read more

We came here as a party of 4 on a Sunday for lunch and got seated right away. We ordered bentos off the lunch menu it came with rice, seaweed soup, and salad. We got the Cali roll combo with tempura and salmon, sashimi comb with teriyaki chicken and beef. It was very delicious and good portion. My two complaints is the parking lot is in a big plaza with lots of parking but it's busy! So prepare for that. Service was good but slow. read more

I've been looking for quality teriyaki chicken/beef in this area, and this place really fulfilled my craving. I ordered the teriyaki chicken and beef with tempura, and it was all really good quality. I do think that the teriyaki sauce is a little sweet, so having all of the meat in the sauce does get a little overwhelming. The staff let me know I could order the sauce on the side next time, so that is also an option. The staff here are friendly and my food came very quickly. read more

Food: We got 2 lunch boxes. I got chicken and it comes with dark meat skin on. It was honestly not my favorite type of chicken but it was my preference. And I could've subbed out for white meat. The beef was very good. The tempura vegetables were my favorite thing ever and some of the best I've ever had! Service: The service was pretty good. I like how they kind of just left you alone a little and it wasn't too much. They just gave us miso soup with no spoon and the didn't come back for a good 10 minutes. Other than that it was great! Inside: The inside is so big! And clean! Outside: A lot of parking and very easy to get to!! read more

Love Tokyo Lobby, haven't had it since I was a teen and it's still just as good as I remember! Has definitely had some remodeling done. Space is more modern now and the staff here are so kind. Sashimi was delicious and fresh, tempura not oily, and teriyaki has always had a perfect balance of sweet (not too sweet) and savory! As soon as I took that nostalgic bite of the teriyaki beef it brought me right back to coming as kid! 1 of 2 read more

Great service. One of the best Japanese restaurants near home for me. They have been successful all these years, and I'm all in for it. The teriyaki beef bento with sashimi is my favorite. Not only does the food tastes good, but the portions are very fair, and I think the price isn't too high. It's very reasonable. This place used to be nicer then, but it's still lovely. Hoping this place stays around forever! read more
