Hear from our valued guests
We hadn't been to Iron Chef in years and what a shame we havent. Service was excellent and the sushi was both beautifully presented and well made. Our youngest got the kids hibachi chicken and we very happy with it. We will be back soon.
Went for drinks and hibachi everything was delicious and the bartender and waitress were so nice! The woman bartending made several really good recommendations and the man doing the hibachi made it so much fun! I will definitely be back.
Amazing amazing this is the spot they are so amazing the food is just top tier 10/10 recommend its our friday night tradition everything is always fresh and great customer service
I’ve ordered takeout from Iron Chef many times and have never been disappointed! The hibachi meal is always incredible and the sushi is amazzzzing. If you’re in the area I would highly recommend stopping in! Posting a picture of my sushi for tonight (spicy tuna, spicy salmon, California roll + Kani salad)
Various type of food and all are yummy!!! I came with my family around 10ppl with kids, we order many dishes to share. I am very surprised with how good the food was. Sushi are all tasty with their unique sauce. The fish are fresh. Hibashi is also very tasty.
Food and service was amazing. One of the best fried rice I've ever had. Can't wait to come back.
Loved it. We had Sushi’s Dinner Raw Fish and Cooked seafood
Very nice restaurant, food was great and service was very attentive. A number of complaints were related to takeout. I'd suggest try eating at the restaurant and compare the two. Prices was very reasonable as well.
I and about 8 others went for a birthday and we all had a great time. It was my first hibachi experience and I’m glad it was here. The food was delicious and you get SO MUCH.
Went during their lunch specials with the family last week and had a really nice time! The salmon lunch special is delicious. It comes with soup and salad too- the lunch specials are just so worth it! The fried gyoza we had as an appetizer was good too, a little differently prepared than other ways I’ve had the dish at different restaurants but nevertheless good. Place is clean, friendly staff, and nice atmosphere. I recommend you try this place out!
