Their sushi is good — not as good as Waraji, though. The service is very friendly, the atmosphere is comfortable and they have a large sushi bar that’s always full. I generally go for lunch and get the specials from the kitchen. The Pad Thai is a little… unique, but good. Every other dish I tried was quite tasty

Food was pretty good. The three meat hibachi entrée didn’t really work together but the rice was great. The rice would have worked better without the beef. Server didn’t seem genuinely enthused to serve us but she didn’t do anything wrong. Overall good time had by all.

Omg, sooo good. We had 4 rolls and they were all delicious! The best two were Golden Crunchy and Volcano, wish we had 2 of both of those.

I stopped in to pick up the«Tom Special». It is absolutely delicious and I love to sit at the sushi bar to watch them make it. Nothing less than five star service!!!

I was expecting extraordinary and it was just ok. Sat at the bar and the conversation with the gentleman making the sushi was great. Service was ok. Food was ok. I’m still on the hunt for a sushi location outside of Cowfish, which is my favorite.

I’m really surprised this place has so many positive reviews. We went on a Saturday night at 7. Tables were empty, while the sushi bar was packed. That got me thinking right away that maybe this place is good for sushi only. We ordered chicken wings and beef negimaki for appetizers. Beef negimaki was cold and the meat was rubbery. Chicken wings were super tough and inedible. Very poor quality meat. I was hoping the meal would be saved by the sushi we ordered as our main course. I like sushi and have eaten at a bunch of local spots. This place is not good. Sushi was not fresh at all. I ordered sashimi yellowtail and some tuna as well as some specialty rolls. Either they serve different sushi at the sushi bar or those people have no clue what good sushi is. It was fishy and rubbery. We won’t be back.

I travel quite a bit. I like to try new places and Japanese food is a favorite as I’ve actually been to Japan and I liked it. I was on Unilocal trying to decide which one to go to and selected Tokyo House because it had decent above average reviews but even more important the owner was responding to negative reviews. I thought that took real pride of ownership, showed passion for his customers so I went. Started out good. Sushi selection was good. Décor and cleanliness seemed nice. Menu items were authentic as you get here stateside. I ordered the tempura shrimp roll and the tempura vegetable roll. They looked interesting. Tempura shrimp was a little on the bland side. The vegetable roll was awesome. Great flavor. So I’m happy. Thinking of ordering one more. A roach falls out of the ceiling on the guy at the end of the bar. Not good. Ok I think. I’m from Florida. These things are everywhere. I convince myself it’s just one. No big deal. The queasiness in my stomach settles. I order a vegetable tempura. I’m just not sure my stomach can take anything weird but I’m still a tad hungry. I’m trying hard to convince myself not to run screaming. Then., A freaking giant spider, I just glimpsed it, crawls up the wall on the side. A kid starts screaming, a bug a bug! It was not little. It was silver dollar size. Yep silver dollar. I just got a glimpse. Not sure what that thing was but I thought spider when I saw it and it was big. Holy crap. I had ordered a vegetable tempura. I couldn’t finish. My stomach was in knots. Not happy. Uncomfortable. I just wanted out. Figured the owner would apologize. Maybe take something off the bill for a meal and an evening ruined. Nope. No apology. Nothing off the bill. Nada. Here’s your bill and get out. Disappointed and grossed out and will not be returning on subsequent business trips. Fair warning folks.

Interesting menu. Not completely Japanese. They offer some Thai dishes as well. Sushi rolls were generous with healthy portions of fish. Ramen Miso with pork was very good. As well as the Green Curry my wife had. Best of all we showed up 15 minutes before the closing of lunch and they didn’t rush us.

Quite simply the best place for my kind of sushi(read into that not real sushi)! I can not ever get past the Tom’s Special roll .love sitting atop the sushi bar watching the chefs do their thing. All the chefs are friendly and even though working hard, take the time to chat with customers. Lots of regulars here. hidden gem in a strip mall… heck it’s been there over 11 years and I found it 5 years ago…

I’d like to start by saying that the sushi was tasty and reasonably priced. With that said, there are a lot of places in the triangle where I can get good sushi. I am surprised everyone commented on the«great service.» When we first arrived, I had high hopes b/c of the Unilocal reviews. So when we had to wait ten minutes for the hostess to seat us, I brushed it off. I noticed there were only two waiters, but there was also only 3 tables full, so I think the wait was a little excessive. Once we sat, we waited another 15 minutes for someone to take our order. The food didn’t take so long to come out, but by the time it finally got there I was starving after smelling all the delicious smells. Too bad, my pork yakisoba only smelled good. There was almost no flavor. I had to douse it with soy sauce. Also, no one ever refilled our drinks. We were so happy to FINALLY get the check and go home. While the sushi was good, this restaurant is not in my neighborhood, and I don’t see any reason why I would make a special trip here again.

I go to Tokyo house maybe 2x/week. For real. That’s how much I love their sushi. The service is exceptional, the assortment of rolls and freshness of fish is too notch. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is this(well, there’s no option for ½ stars cause 4 ½ is what I would give): sometimes my rolls fall apart as I’m eating them. Not a huge deal, I just eat it anyway. Honestly it’s currently my favorite spot for sushi. I was asked what my favorite roll is… well that’s a tough one. I think the holy moly is my favorite. I love anything with scallops, which is what makes that one so good.

This place really is fantastic. I have been several times now during my lunch hour and it has been great every time. Service: Exceptional. Every time I have eaten at this place the service great. Everyone who works here is very friendly and personable. Service is very quick. There seem to be a lot of regular customers that have been going here for a very long time. Food: Who can resist getting sushi when going to a sushi restaurant? So of course I have ordered sushi on every visit. I also order something different from the menu each time I go. Everything is always fantastic and very authentic. The only thing I wish they would do differently is offer buy one get one sushi deals. Don’t get me wrong, everything is great, but I have gotten accustomed to ordering two sushi rolls for the price of one at other places. Because this isn’t the case at this particular place, you can expect to pay a decent amount on your visit depending on how many sushi rolls you like to get… but at least you are paying for sushi that is worth it! In comparison to other places that do not offer buy one get one deals, this place offers better prices. Things to note: I had their sesame chicken for the first time today. It was GREAT, however for some people it would be too spicy. It was as spicy as I would expect General Tsaos chicken to be. Trust me, if I think something is spicy then it definitely is. I love spicy food so it tasted great to me, but I can see how a person not expecting it could be turned off by it.

First experience & perhaps my last. I based my «try out» on previous reviews, so I had high hopes. A Friday night, I called at 6PM for a take out order. The young lady took my order, name & phone number. She told me it would be 25 minutes & she’d call me when it was ready. I had gone to nearby Home Depot & didn’t realize the time til I looked at my phone. It was 6:40& no phone call. I called the restaurant & the girl said they had tried to call & got a message that«this wasn’t my phone number.» I was puzzled, because I wasn’t having issues with my phone & it never rung. I told her I was on my way to get my food. When I got there, it was sitting on a back table behind the register — I can only imagine how long it had been sitting there. I asked the lady what happened & she repeated the same story, as she’s pointing to the receipt with my correct phone number. I paid for my food & left — $ 28.50 for shrimp & steak hibachi & a firecracker roll. When I got home(five minutes away), I opened the bags. The lettuce on the salad looked sad, much like some of the bagged salads you get at the grocery store. The sushi looked good, but the asparagus in it was very overpowering, even with dipping in soy sauce. The fried rice was very odd tasting & basically tasted just like brown/white rice. The steak, shrimp, broccoli, onion, zucchini, & mushrooms were all together swimming in sauce. The shrimp had a very fishy/right out the ocean taste. The steak was actually pretty good, although a few pieces weren’t very good. The onions were more like onion«petals.» I know all Asian restaurants are different & prepare things different ways; however, I wasn’t pleased with the taste of anything I got. Prices are high, but you do get a lot of food. They have an extensive lunch & dinner menu. Parking can be an issue since they’re located in a shopping center.

Very friendly service. Quick to the table. Absolutely delish! Seafood ramen is filled with mussels, shrimp, scallops, bok choy, cabbage, in a hearty full flavored broth. Chicken tonkatsu was crisp and moist. The sauce was perfect and authentic.

Had a great chirashi lunch here the service was pretty quick for the lunch hour and the price was right. The place is in a shopping center so there is plenty of parking and they have an extremely large menu that includes sushi and japanese dishes for lunch. I will definitely be coming back again to try some of the rolls on the menu. I also need to check out the thai dishes a co worker got the pad thai so I think the pad see eww is next for me.

Oh my gosh what a great meal! It’s sushi-Thai, two of my favorites, so friends and I did a mix-and-match sort of meal. There was a firecracker roll that lived up to its name and included an asparagus«wick», flavorful chicken and pork gyoza, tasty ginger dressing on a basic tossed salad, a delicious house ramen with chewy noodles, and green curry shrimp heavy on spice and light on lemongrass. Absolutely delicious, all of it, and very fresh. I understand it can get crowded at lunch but was pleasantly quiet the night we went. Service was friendly and fast, with no grumbling about eveyone wanting extra plates and bowls and spoons for sharing everything. Just wonderful. Already planning the next trip.
