The cooking show was very fun to watch, and catching the broccoli in your mouth was also really fun! The hibachi scallop was very yummy and tender, as was the hibachi salmon. However, overall, the food is very heavily seasoned, and tastes overly salty and yet sweet. The veggies were very very good! Overall, pretty nice meal!

One of our few favorite places to enjoy a meal here in Fairbanks, the food is good, the hibachi chefs and the waiters are nice.
Only issue is the guy with the thick rimmed glasses( I want to assume he is the manager/owner) he comes off very rude. Throws the menus in the tables, cuts infront of guest to get by. He just gives off a bad energy. But other than that the place is decent!

Fantastic Dining Experience at Shogun Japanese Restaurant in Fairbanks
If you’re looking for both spectacular food and entertainment in Fairbanks, Shogun Japanese Restaurant is the place to go! My family of eight visited during peak hours and, to our delight, we were seated within just two minutes. This wasn’t due to a lack of patrons—quite the opposite—the restaurant was bustling, but the staff’s efficiency and excellent service made the seating process seamless.
The food at Shogun is nothing short of excellent. Although it deviates from traditional Japanese presentation, the artistic flair and craftsmanship of the chefs were truly a spectacle, capturing the attention and admiration of our kids. Each dish was a display of culinary art, enhancing the overall dining experience.
We ordered the steak and chicken, both grilled to absolute perfection, and the gyoza, prepared in a traditional Japanese Hiroshima style, which was authentic and delicious. The restaurant also offered a variety of Japanese drinks, adding to the authenticity and depth of our meal.
Shogun Japanese Restaurant is not just a place to eat; it’s a venue to experience the skill and creativity of the chefs, all while enjoying a meal that delights the senses. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable meal in Fairbanks!

Heard so many good things about this location. Our first day in Alaska from Houston we decided to try it and we can say it was a good experience. The food was delicious and the service was great. Our waiter was very attentive and never let us go thirsty, and our chef kept us entertained while cooking. The only downside was just the tight spot between us, which made it kind of difficult to have elbow room to eat and also the amount of food for the price. Overall, it was a great place to check out when in Alaska.

My family went here for lunch. Great lunch prices/good serving sizes/ and the show is the main attraction. Try the yum yum sauce with your food. My kids really loved when he lit up the volcanoe on fire! Must go to stop for fairbanks especially if you would like lunch. There lunch hibachi was around estimated $15 a person and included almost everything the dinner options had.

Overall, great meal with family and friends. Great venue for large parties. Food is cooked fresh right in front of you. No one cleared their plates, portions are pretty big. You can plan on spending around $40 per person for the meal. They do have beer and wine if you partake. Parties 6 and over are charged a 18% gratuity so check your bill prior to leaving an additional tip. The reason I gave three stars for the atmosphere, this place at one point was a 1970s pizza hut based off the building structure. They have done a great job making it in to what it is though. Service is excellent and the wait staff is very attentive. Recommend reservations for prompt seating.

Visited Fairbanks from Boston and was looking for a good place to sit down and have a good meal and boy did we find it! Shogun was incredible – the food was REALLY good! We did the habachi and it was so much fun. Go!

The chefs show off their skills while cooking food in front of you on a hibachi grill. We just went to a birthday party here and had fun. Not much of a beer/drink selection. The food was good. It’s expensive but entertaining. Be prepared to wait for a table. It’s best to have a larger party and reservations.
