Steak Shrimp and fried rice
Nick C.

My son who graduated wanted teppanyaki. Lancaster I believe only has 2 Teppanyaki spots and they are both Tokyo Steak. Well... I did a little research on Tokyo Steak to see what others were enjoying. In my opinion it's not much. I dont ever go to teppanyaki places. Last one I been to was Bennihana so I guess that's the standard. Unfortunately Tokyo Steak falls short. The Pros. The staff was friendly and for the most part attentive. The beer was cold. The Cons. I have to agree with others in saying the place is outdated. Not too much but it would be nice to see a fresh look here. Decor is nice but just need to be slightly refreshed. The chef, well they were nice. It just felt lack luster in effort trying to entertain. It wasn't sloppy it was more so less enthusiastic. Still nice though. The food. Well Im gonna be honest. I have better food at more casual even consider fast restaurants. This includes both quality, taste and execution. The sushi bar was closed so no sushi. I was a bit sad but in hindsight it was a blessing in disguise. The fried rice lacked flavor. Steak is cooked in teriyaki and lacked flavor and overall quality. The shrimp was mediocre. Salty was the only flavor profile. Veggies same. Salty and lacked depth. Tempura was okay. Edamame was okay. The food is prepared starting with the rice first then the proteins then the veggies. I think the veggies could be cooked along side the proteins. So that it all comes out at the same time. Oh well. Overall the food was meh, lacked depth, and was either just salty or tossed in a basic teriyaki. The price. After everything was said an done. A few beers, fountain drinks, 4 appetizers and dinner for 6 adults and a chile was $430 which included tip. Was it worth it? Probably not. I wouldnt recommend tokyo steak. However I do think all this could be easily turned around. Some upgrades to the decor. Change some of the recipes so that each protein is unique. And add less salt / soy to the fried rice. And lastly stop using margarine on the proteins and rice. Its literally just adding more oil.

Came to Tokyo steakhouse for my twins birthday wanted them to see an actual teppanyaki, and I thought they would get a kick out of the show which they did. It was very entertaining. The food was ok but when I was most impressed by was the fried rice that they made at that restaurant I don't know what they do to it, but it's the best fried rice I've ever tasted and I'd hate rice. Everything else that we got the surf and turf and scallops and everything else potstickers and tempura. I will get the rice and that's it if I ever go back here or if I ever come back here. The surface was OK we had reservation so we didn't have to wait long. The restaurant looks OK. I don't know if the steakhouse is in Tokyo look like this but if they do at least I know what or be familiar with the look.

Fried rice and chicken Yakisoba

Pretty damn good, drinks are strong, and I believe it's cheaper then benihanas I would definitely recommend

Drink Menu - June 2025

Great food and great experience! I really enjoyed the food but also the experience the chef provided. He was super kind and seemed to really enjoy his job:) I forgot to take pics of the food bc it was so good but here's a pic of their Lunch menu as of 6/2025

Host, server, and chefs were very nice and accommodating to our requests. Parking was easy but I highly recommend parking as close a possible to the restaurant and away from the other establishment at the other end of the strip mall. The place is a little dated but once we were seated and started interacting with the staff, you kind of forget about the exterior or interior and just enjoy the quick show. The serving was on the bigger side. Our party of 6 each had a to go box at the end of our meals. We tried everything between the steak, chicken, shrimp, scallops, and squid. I probably would stick to the steak and scallops next time, just a personal preference. The fried rice was really tasty, I'm glad our chef gave us plenty. The Lover's Potion drink was pretty strong, I couldn't finish mine! But that's not a bad thing :). The only other similar place is in Palmdale so if you don't feel like making the trek across town, this is a good establishment to visit.

Steak ,Double fried rice and veggies

Service is always great I go to this place often But this last time I went was horrible I asked for medium well , my steak was still bleeding but it was the chef unfortunately I had two bad experiences with this chef next time I'll just see what chef I'll get

We just celebrated my son's 16th birthday there. It was so incredible. The entire experience was amazing. Geo our chef was very nice, funny, he did an excellent show. The food was just perfect. Not salty nor over cooked. Definitely recommended. Thank you so much, to the family that was next to us. Also celebrating his birthday 70!

Food was good

We think the Lancaster location is a bit better than the Palmdale. The food is good and cooking is entertaining. Great cocktails!

If yiu have some guests this is the place you have to go and amaze them Environment - it is not very fancy place and smells with some smoke of food they prepare, but that is acceptable as you Seat in front of a chef and he cooks for you. Little bit noisy as mostly people come groups and they all want to "celebrate birthdays" to hear that drum and see funny heros who come and sing "happy birthday to you"

Cleaned the tables etc So we decided to come back 2days later Raeleen is not here bummer you could tell the patio tables were filthy no windows open and the waitress Natsuyo no comparison cold and tables had dead bugs all on them let's just say no Raeleen. So I attempt to order crab sticks again and was told they were imitation crab.i know what I had and it was real crab but she insisted it was fake though she wasn't here that day. She said Raelern was new what does that have to do with anything the cook isn't and he prepared it. I ask for the manager as soon as he walks up to me he says we dont have real crab without hearing my story. Its just kinda hard to believe that a place that prepares and cooks food infront of you that is not cheap only has imitation crab. I wont be back

Unfortunately, this visit didn't live up to what we remembered. Being given plastic utensils while dining in was surprising, especially at this price point. The service and food were just okay, and the "miso soup" was actually plain chicken broth, which was disappointing and unexpected. Overall, it didn't feel like the same experience we used to enjoy. I hope this is taken as constructive criticism, as we'd love to see the quality return to what it once was.

It had a hint of lemon, which I liked the vegetables very good. They could have been cooked a little bit more, but they were delicious. The rice was Brown rice and it was so good. It was Fried Rice, but here's the problem. It could have been more healthier, by not putting msg or not making it Fried Rice. Just steamed brown rice organic And and just making it a more healthier version, it was really expensive But it is filet Mignon. But it was still expensive. I wish they would make everything into a more healthier version because there's not a lot of healthy food up in the deserert when I'm up their Also, when I have MSG or when I have stuff that is not healthy. I swell up and my joints hurt. Especially with msg or soy sauce, but everything was super delicious. It's just, I wish it could be a healthier version. I wouldn't mind paying a few bucks less but i know iit was filet Mignon, but it was really expensive. But it was good. But like I said, healthier version and not as expensive, maybe like a few bucks, less would be worth it but for that much I expected grass fed organic like I said just a few bucks lower would be awesome but food was good but I need a healthier version a personal preference but to those who are not you would like it just not the price ‍

Over charges you based on printed menu! Rip off. They also charge you for sauce! Beware. I'll never…read morego to them again.

Mi última experiencia fue algo totalmente distinto. Llegué con mi familia y tuvimos que esperar unos 30 minutos para pagar; nos hicieron sentarnos en una zona de espera donde había una alfombra empapada (no sé por qué). Mientras esperábamos, pasó un hombre sin hogar, se saltó la fila sin pagar y nadie lo detuvo. Se dirigió hacia la parte trasera del restaurante y, desafortunadamente para mí y mi familia, ahí era precisamente donde nos habían sentado. El hombre empezó a tomar los platos limpios y a apilarlos, y nadie decía nada. Tuve que avisar a una empleada, quien le indicó que no podía hacer eso; él se detuvo, tomó un plato y comenzó a llenarlo de verduras y carne para que se lo cocinaran. Yo estaba esperando detrás de él, y él seguía tomando comida para un tercer plato, hasta que la empleada volvió a decirle que no podía hacerlo; finalmente, se quedó con uno de los tres platos, mientras que los otros dos fueron a parar a la basura, arrojados allí por los empleados. Tomé un plato --haciendo un gran esfuerzo por seguir dispuesto a comer allí--, pero mientras este hombre esperaba su comida, se puso a deambular por la zona y comenzó a tocar las cucharas y los tenedores sin motivo alguno. Una vez más, la empleada le pidió que dejara de hacerlo. Cuando los pedidos estuvieron listos, él tomó mi plato por error; eso fue la gota que colmó el vaso para mí, así que decidí abandonar el lugar. Ahora me pregunto: ¿por qué tenemos que presenciar todo esto? ¿Y acaso nadie habría hecho nada al respecto si yo no hubiera dicho nada?
