Shogun Sushi Hibachi

Seated quickly with reservation. Restaurant is a bit dated. Staff friendly. Cooking experience good.

I certainly don't have anything against them, but I have to admit that I do find it unexpected that I've been to more teppanyaki/habachi restaurants in the last year and a half than in all of my years prior. No special occasions for it either; just separate circles of friends/gf suggesting it for something different, but kind of funny considering I've never had the urge for it. As such, perhaps all of this should be taken with a grain of salt, though, I do practically feel like a teppanyaki connoisseur at this point...Compared to similar places that I've been to (a few Benihana locations and Tokyo Steakhouse over in Natomas), Shogun Sushi Hibachi is both similar and distinctly different. While the other two are decidedly larger in size, this place is notably cleaner and quieter. As for the menu, it's pretty comparable to the other two, offering a variety of both hot and cold appetizers, bento boxes, noodle dishes (soup and dry), sushi rolls, and, of course, a range of teppanyaki offerings featuring either a single meat or a combination there of.-- AGEDASHI TOFUThis clearly isn't something they're known for, but it still wasn't great. The tofu were oddly pale yet had brown patches (like pan fried vs deep fried), the skin was super thin and not at all crispy, and they tasted bland on their own.-- HABACHI RIB EYE with Rib Eye Steak, Soup, Salad, Shrimp Appetizer, Hibachi Vegetables, and Fried Rice (+$1.99)All in all, pretty solid. The chunks of rib eye were tender and nicely cooked, the soup was great, the hibachi vegetables weren't drowning in sauce nor oily, and the fried rice wasn't too salty, though the shrimp appetizer was a bit overcooked.As far as service goes, the servers were a little hit or miss (not overly friendly, but efficient and quick), but our chef was terrific - far more entertaining and personable than the one we had at Tokyo Steakhouse yet without the cheesy shtick you get from the chefs at Benihana. Similarly, there are pros and cons with almost every aspect of the overall meal when compared with Benihana and Tokyo Steakhouse - Shogun's soup is the best, the salad is comparable, the shrimp appetizer here is worst, the veggies here are better, the quality of the meat is better, and there's an upcharge for fried rice like at Benihana, whereas Tokyo Steakhouse's bacon fried rice is included.Overall, compared to the likes of Benihana and Tokyo Steakhouse, Shogun Sushi Habachi is closer to the former than the latter, but the way we were semi-nudged out did leave a slightly bad aftertaste to the experience. Still, if I had to choose, I'd probably lean towards coming back here over the other two, though doing so wouldn't stem from a craving for teppanyaki, despite the great times with friends.

Love this place for birthday celebrations! We've been twice in the last year and they are so welcoming and friendly. The food is tasty too! Recommend doing the filet or ribeye if you're into beef. Would like it if they fried the rice longer to give it a crispy texture. It was undercooked to my taste. Will continue to come back for fun ambiance and great service.

Let me start by saying I'm always looking for a good hibachi place. One that gives me that flavor of the "B"word. While in the area I searched for a Teppanyaki place and to my surprise this restaurant popped up. It had decent reviews so I figured we'd give it a go. We did not have a reservation but were able to be seated pretty quickly. We were a party of three and joined a party of five who did have a reservation. When you walk in the entrance is covered with small Polaroid instant photos of diners on their birthdays or special occasions. there are options to not have the Teppanyaki experience you can just sit at a table if you like and order. But we always enjoy the Teppanyaki experience and that it comes with salad and soup And a shrimp appetizer.Overall the service was excellent including our chef. Everyone was pleasant and friendly. The food was good although I would have loved some more seasoning and more vegetables in the fried rice because I didn't have any on my plate. And it was also underseasoned to me more butter more garlic, pepper just something to give it that extra boost. The food overall I'd like to give it 3.5 stars but there's no way to do that.I have the ribeye and the scallops it was good but again just needed something else. Will I ever go back there to eat if I'm in the area absolutely.

Great food and atmosphere! Andrew is a great chef and super friendly. Definitely recommend to anyone who likes good sushi.

Had a great experience at Shogun!! Would recommend for anyone wanting a fun and tasty hibachi experience!

In a day and age when good hibachi is so hard to find, look no further! Shogun Sushi Hibachi is here to change that expectation! Not only is the performance fun and engaging, the food is fantastic! To top all that off, the service and attention paid to all guests is phenomenal!! You can sit at the hibachi with many of your friends, or you and your special someone can share a table to two in a quiet corner. Either way you will not be disappointed! If you are celebrating a birthday, they do that in style. I was having so much fun that I completely forgot to snap a picture of the wonderful food! We are definitely going back soon!!

Cute little hibachi place in Folsom. We got there early so had the place to ourselves. There are lots of great meat and seafood choices. I had rib eye and shrimp, others really liked the lobster and chicken. Chef was fun and we had a nice time. Really liked the Polaroid at the end, made for a fun memory.

This place is fantastic! Amazing food and amazing customer service!We came here for my brothers birthday and had an incredible experience. They are so incredibly accommodating with allergies and go above and beyond. The food is amazing and the place is immaculately clean and sanitary. My mother is very hard to please and she could not stop complimenting the attention to detail the staff had. Definitely a hidden gem in Folsom!

It's ok it tasted like fast sushi. If that makes sense. I tried it. Wanted to. Wouldn't go back.
