Tokyo Japanese Steak House - Japanese steakhouse in Lafayette - 3511 Ambassador Caffery Pkwy, USA

We had a large birthday party (22 guests) we reserved a hibachi and everything was ready when our party arrived. Our chef was funny and cooked our food perfect. Everyone had a great time, the only thing that could have been better would have been having 2 waitresses because 1 for that many people was too much.

Not the best person to judge because I'm not too big for sushi, but I do usually get calamari often, and I didn't care for theirs. The noodle and chicken were good. My husband got the steak with noodles and the sauce made the noodles and rice way better. Also, I usually lean more to noodles than rice and here I liked the rice more.

Wanted a bento box but got pressed into getting hibachi. As someone already posted: "You can only sit at the hibachi table if you have 80% of your party eating hibachi, you can only get seated if ALL of your party is there." That was the same for my party. The service was great, the hibachi was over-spicy and salty, and the atmosphere was OK. Loved the fun chef, though. Kind of makes you forget you're sitting in a restaurant in a giant cement parking lot. 😄

We have dined on the hibachi side MANY times. The food is excellent! HOWEVER, in the past year the service has gone down. It appears that they work a skeleton crew on weekends. It takes a ridiculous amount of time to get any kind of service because the waitress can’t keep up with all of her tables. On top of that, it’s HOT!! I honestly feel like I may incinerate while sitting there! Everyone is uncomfortable, I saw a table make paper fans to try to circulate air. The cooks are sweating onto the grill. I honestly don’t know how the staff is able to work a shift through these conditions! When you walk out of the hibachi side, cool air hits you so the issue may only be on the hibachi side. I understand things have gone up, but if you’re going to have a price increase good service and a comfortable atmosphere is a must!

Ok all I just wanna say that the restaurant captured the culture from walking in. We arrived there at exactly 7:02 pm on Sunday January 28th 2024...... So on Sundays they close at 8:30, so given the time that we arrived should have been more than enough time for us to enjoy the ambiance and experience..... But upon being greeted after being there for 10 minutes, which was way over time for sure, but the server was apparently training a new hire..... And with all the many years of being a server this girl should have DEFINITELY not been training the new girl. The chef came and began cooking, the other couple then voiced that they asked specifically many times to the server how adamant they were about the specific order....... And of course the chef had no knowledge of that, shoot THANK GOD they didn't have an allergy because if they did they might have died or been sent to the ER immediately. From my many years of serving if a guest is VERY specific about something you make a note of that FOR SURE! NO QUESTIONS ASKED! so anyways after that the chef did try to make the best of the situation since they were not happy about the hiccup..... The sushi was great..... In conclusion JUST DONT GO HERE! the food was so ABSOLUTELY generic, the experience was sub par, and also while we were still trying to finish our meal they were stacking chairs at 8:20 when they are supposed to close at 8:30pm on Sundays...... Also this was my son's very first time to go there and it was so NOT worth the damn $140 we spent here AT ALL! So if you have a choice DO NOT GO HERE! this place is ABSOLUTELY not worth your money AT ALL! might as well just go-to freaking Panda express instead! We WILL NOT BE COMING BACK!

I really like this place, I love the house soup! So much flavor in such a delicate little dish. I also enjoyed my steak bento box. The fried veggies are great and the steak was tender and juicy. The rice and noodles were delicious and I also loved the little dumpling and sushi samples. Pretty good value also. Will be coming back for sure

Really delicious!! My bestie and I went as she's never had hibachi style food before. She was in for a delicious treat! Our food came out super delicious and we were able to enjoy conversation. I got the chicken teriyaki box which did not disappoint. Would definitely come back here again.

I’ve gone here over the past couple years. I’ve sworn it off a few times when the food was randomly subpar but kept giving it a chance because it was reasonably priced. Not anymore. I posted a photo of the menu 3 months ago because the prices had gone up. Since then, several things have increased another couple dollars. Disappointed with the rapid inflation.
