Hibachi Express

My husband and I often stop here for a quick lunch or dinner date and the food is always fresh and hot. Everything is made to order and you can pretty much watch the cooks prepare the food right in front of your eyes. We typically order the chicken hibachi with veggies and 2 spring rolls. A few times the Spring rolls have been a bit greasy, like the cooks forget to let it drain before packaging but still delicious. The young lady that frequently takes our order is very sweet and friendly as is the rest of the staff we come in contact with. The ladies bathroom is a big small but is always clean and full of air fresheners, hand soap and hand sanitizer. It’s never really full anytime we’ve ever stopped there but is very busy on the weekends. Nice spot overall.

Went through drive thru realized I was given a Coke instead of an unsweetened tea. Went back the following day and ordered $ 12.18 in food. Presented the receipt telling the cashier about the mistake. She refused to correct the problem! Piss poor customer service!

This place was ok. I agree with some of the other reviewers who said it’s a little bland. And I’m annoyed that they don’t have ginger sauce (even though I suspected based on the other reviews — but I can now CONFIRM it). I’m not really a fan of Yum Yum sauce and prefer the sharp taste of ginger sauce. I usually DROWN my hibachi in it. LOL. It’s also pretty expensive, BUT it’s a lot of food. I could have made 2 meals out of it, but I just decided to eat all my meat and veggies and toss the majority of the rice they provided.

It’s ok but they sure like to pile up the rice and not enough meat. If your real hungry don’t go there but if your like rice have fun.

The price matches the portion sizes. I like to get the steak and shrimp, which is a little bit more expensive. They have a drive thru which I find very convenient. Each hibachi order comes with «Yum Yum Sauce» which is your basic Japanese seafood sauce. It tastes good on everything.
Sometimes the wait can be a bit long, but I don’t mind because they make each order fresh. They people working there are very nice!

I always get excited about places that offer drive thru other than the normal fast food restaurants.
Came here around 11:40, and nobody was there, so I’m happy I beat the lunch rush. I ordered the scallop hibachi (full $ 11) and the steak&chicken hibachi ($ 11). I loved the scallop hibachi. They use bay scallops which are the tiny ones, but they gave a perfect amount. The steak and chicken were rather dry, but you can’t expect much from a drive thru joint. They seasoned it well though.
The fried rice and veggies that came with it were fine. They also give a large side of yum yum sauce with every entrée.
I don’t usually like paying the high hibachi prices, so this place is great to go too! Just don’t expect the same quality as a restaurant.

I haven’t read any other reviews on Hibachi so I’m flying unbiased right now. It is 2:02pm on a Wednesday. I came in, two Lilburn City Police Officers are chilling over lunch, 2 women are posted enjoying their lunch too. It’s a bit slow, but it’s peaceful. I can’t remember what this building used to be but it was some kind of fast food joint. The staff of Hibachi has done a wonderful job redecorating and keeping this place up, and the atmosphere is just overall pleasant. Smooth Japanese music playing, sounds of sizzling meat, the smells of teriyaki and yum yum sauce surrounding you… yes. I was ravenous so that may be a bit over exaggerated For the good part: I got the Hibachi Chicken ½ Entrée with extra veggies, and my total was like $ 6 and some change. Can’t be mad at that. Taste-​wise, I’ve had better «fast-​food» Hibachi, it was sodium laden and the chicken was a bit overdone. This may sound gruff, but you can’t really go into a place like this with your hopes high. But you know, for this surrounding area I think they’ve done rather well. Give it a try!

I haven’t even tasted the Good yet. Anyway, I remember what this place used to be. And I remember what that place used to be too. It’s a better, cleaner, overall look just missing the TVs the other places had. But everything smells great and looks better.

I find myself eating here about once a week. It is consistently yummy with incredibly large portions for cheap. I am very picky about my meat and theirs is phenomenal; no weird fatty and tendony pieces that you find at a lot of Japanese places. The drive thru tends to take a bit of time, but that is because the food is made fresh. Overall, I highly recommend this place.

4.5 so I rounded up. The place needs some renovations but the food is great. I recommend the Steak Hibachi Entrée.

Really good food with quality ingredients despite the low price. The portions are also HUGE. My wife and I eat there about once a week or so and always split a full portion meal. What keeps it from getting 5 stars is the sweet tea, which consistently has a funky taste.

I got hibachi chicken half order and a chicken egg roll. Both were delicious and this was even after the 20 minute ride home. The chicken egg roll maintained a crispy exterior and was sufficiently succulent to make me happy. And it was a fair size. Yeah! The hibachi chicken was what I ate for lunch and dinner even tho it was a half order. It had plenty of meat and rice and although I would have liked more veggies with it it was quite enjoyable with a large cup of yum yum sauce to go with it. I sauteed up my own veggies for the evening meal and finished the rest off. I am pleased to find a fast food asian place that is not trying to rip you off with too much rice and not enough substance or serving old food that is chewy and hard. I will be back.

I ordered the hibachi shrimp with added scallops and extra egg to the rice. The food was pretty bland but after adding soy sauce, I had no problem with it. Not trying to defend them about the blandness but could it be on purpose in regards to sodium? The price was inexpensive and the wait was very short even though there was a lunch crowd. The amount of food was phenomenal!

Everything is bland. Rice and chicken were dry and tasteless.“Fried rice” is plain rice. no egg or veg in rice. Vegetables were good but hardly any on plate. There was a package of sauce on tray. Tasted like mayo and ketchup mixed. Mustard was in no way hot. I love good hot mustard. No napkins out in dining room. Very disappointed. Only thing positive I can say is the place was clean.

Interesting. Take out Japanese Teppan.
Inexpensive. Plenty of it. Tasted alright. The meat was tender and there was a good amount of it. (I had Hibachi Steak)
Fried rice while plentiful was bland. It could have stood a few more pieces of onion and zucchini as well.
Over all, I will do it again

Passed this place on my way home from work and decided to swing in and try it out. I ordered the full hibachi chicken entrée and a teriyaki steak rice bowl. It took a few minutes and I was on my way. The first thing I noticed was the smell, it was absolutely wonderful. The food is on par with any japanese steakhouse but without the parlor tricks or screaming kids. I’ll definitely be back.

I had the steak and scallops hibachi for only $ 11. Flavor was great but the yum yum sauce that comes with it wasn’t all that. Yum yum sauce is supposed to be the best part of hibachi! (Well to me at least) best part is that they have a drive thru and it was fast!

ok this is not what you’re thinking… as long as you suspend your beliefs about hibachi places like benihana, u just may like the food at hibachi express. I only went thru the drive thru to be fair, there was no line and minimal waiting for the food to cook. The lack of wait time and lack of a steaming, fragrant, burning hot –to-​the-​touch package makes me think hibachi quality does not currently live here. Will I try this: fill-​in-​the-​blank express again? Meeh maybe in a pinch but if Im paying $ 1.99 to add veggies that should already be there, I might just spend a little more for a chinese delivery. So lets recap: they get a good star for offering soba noodles (at least I think they were the real buckwheat kind) at a drive thru, the food was barely warm and lacked that char flavor a true hibachi imparts but they get a second star for speed. Finally aside from no real flavor at all (like salt and pepper) the steak yakisoba bowl I had was quite greasy and the oil taste was most prevalent.

Food was great, prices were great also. Super nice service. Would definitely go again
