I only go there between 11am-3pm for the daily lunch special for $9.66 + tax (which is constantly increasing). Otherwise their a little overpriced. Large portion size and a smallish drink. The chicken is moist and delicious, but the vegetables and rice are pretty bland. The carrots and zucchini seem boiled and mushy (but good). The homemade white sauce is a MUST, but their VERY stingy with it! They only give you ONE tiny container of it and it’s $1 more for each additional one?? Seems like they care more about money, then good customer service.

Food was fresh and giant portions, well presented even for a to go order. Service was lightning fast too. But, I was really disappointed in the taste- there was no real Asian flavor and seemed to be overly Americanized. There was corn in the rice and it was served with a type of candied carrots I would expect with turkey. The meat was tender and cooked well but was seasoned like something from a steakhouse. Hot, reasonably tasty dinner? Yes, but unfortunately not the flavors I was looking for.

While traveling from VA a pit stop was needed and my partner and I ended up catching the lunch special for the day. The shrimp hibachi was the special we added a single order of egg roll (2) and sushi (I can’t recall the name). EVERYTHING was delicious, the rice/vegetables and shrimp were FRESH. Oh, the YumYum sauce was on point too.

My wife and I eat here all the time. The Hillsborough roll is our favorite! Amazing!
We also love the staff. They are all great!

I ordered the chicken and steak habachi and there was flavor with each bite…the rice was even cooked to perfection and the meat was tender. Definitely, the best food I’ve tasted in a long time.

Restaurant is clean and updated.
Service was fine. I got the Steak and Shrimp, it was fresh and had good flavor. Overall a good experience, but the prices seem really high for what you’re getting all things considered. Not a place you would want to eat at more than once a week at $24 per person.

I had been craving Tokyo Express since I haven’t had it in awhile, so I stopped and picked up a to go order for my husband and I on the way back from a Dr’s appointment.
I got the special with only broccoli, which was Teriyaki chicken and my husband wanted spring rolls and crab rangoons.
The crab rangoons were just ok, the spring rolls barely had anything in them and the Teriyaki chicken was so bad , I couldn’t even eat it! Tokyo is nothing like it used to be. I see why there were only 2 customers in there now!

The food was phenomenal! The portions were HUGE which was great!
The overall atmosphere of the restaurant was quiet and very plain though.
The prices were very high compared to what we typically pay. We paid 48 dollars for 2 plates and 2 drinks but the fact that the food was great and plentiful made up for the high prices in my opinion.

Great place to grab a quick and healthy lunch or dinner. The menu is simple with a good selection of protein and vegetables. The service was fast and friendly and the restaurant was bright and clean.
Just around the corner from the state park.

Overall great food, friendly and nice staff! The restaurant itself was above and beyond as far as cleanliness and decor. Me and my boyfriend didn’t have to wait for long for our food and the price was definitely worth what we got!
