House of Japan

Pros:Good location at PolarisLarge dining areaBarEfficient staffFun watching flamesCons:Good way too salty, piled, butteredRestaurant feels sticky and dirtyThey were mopping the bathroom during the height of dinnertimeSoup tastes like bouillon and waterSalad was wetShrimp overcookedFor $40 there should be more pageantry during the cookPro tip:There are lots of hibachi style places in Columbus. Maybe try a different one in town.

Awesome food. The filet mignon and fried rice are amazing. Everything I've had here is good. The food is pretty healthy too. They cook the food on a hibachi grill right in front of you which is very entertaining.

First of all I'm not a fan of the ginger dressing that goes on the salad, and also don't like that you don't get soup for lunch just only dinner. The staff was nice and attentive and the chef randy did cook our food really good. The atmosphere is a nice laid back scene which I can appreciate.But to be honest this is not one of my favorite Japanese Steakhouses who know I may someday give it another try.

We loved it here! Our cook was super friendly and the food was very good! The layout is super open so you are able to see everyone in the restaurant, a little kooky. Although we will totally go again!!

The experience wasn't the best. We had a guy who didn't talk except to verify what we ordered. No showmanship, used way too much sauce, forgot the shrimp cooking in the corner, and he spent more time looking around the room and the other employees than he did cooking the food. He ended up giving me double chicken cause he forgot the guy at the other end also got chicken, and they guy wasn't happy. Defiantly not worth the price......we wont be back.

Our family likes going to hibachi for special celebrations and we found ourselves at House of Japan for my brother's birthday last evening. All entrees include the mushroom soup, bacon salad and a shrimp appetizers. The chefs provide an interactive show but unfortunately due to their insurance they can no longer do the flamin' onion volcanoes. It still is fun to watch despite! Food is delicious and always huge portions with enough to take home. If you get any type of seafood make sure to get the egg yolk sauce--it's like hollandaise--and super yum. Prepare yourself for a pricey bill but for a special occasion it's worth it!

My mother took me here for my birthday and we had an amazing time!!! The service was impeccable our server and our chef were amazing. We will be back!!!

We had a reservation at Benihana's for my sons birthday. When we got there they said they could not accommodate us because they had too many call offs and only had 4 servers. My son wanted hibachi for his birthday so we went to house of Japan without a reservation. They seated us quickly and were so kind. Our server Kristin was awesome and our Chef Wes was amazing! Food was great and service was awesome. So glad we came to house of Japan! Will never go back to Benihana again!!! Thanks for making his birthday special!

Best Hibachi food in Columbus. I always get the filet and scallop combo with the best egg yolk sauce. Order extra fried rice for better leftovers.

I have had hibachi at many places and this place is THE BEST! The shrimp and filet were amazing. The egg yolk sauce was incredible! The chef and server were great. Seriously, this place was amazing!
