Hibachi Express Tarpon Spring

As far as Japanese food goes...this is disappointingly bland. I have eaten here once; The staff and location are okay, but the food is just flavorless and disappointing. It's not the worst thing I've eaten but it's...pretty bad.

Ate there last week! Headed there tonight. Wonderful as always, their chicken hibachi is the best, friend of ours got the chicken teriyaki and that was quite delicious too. It's always clean. The people are always friendly and if I ate sushi, I might even try that it actually looks delicious. Can't wait to go there every time we get back to TS.

This was unbelievably the grossest food I think I've ever had. Not even edible. We spent $35 on 2 steak hibachi entrees to be put in the garbage.I don't know if the steak is fake meat or dog meat or something else but been the cheapest quality steak isn't this bad. Covering it in yum yum sauce wasn't even enough. The yum yum sauce was ok but not like you get at hibachi restaurants.Fried rice tastes nothing like fried rice and even the rice was inedible.Oddly the vegetables were the only thing that tasted good.The ginger dressing was good but the salad was very sad, a chunk of iceberg lettuce and a tomato wedge.I'm still in disbelief how disgusting this was. Wow just wow Visually it looked great. Price was ok.Food was awful

Meh. We wanted to explore something new, so we made the trip to this strip mall location. They've done a pretty good job transforming whatever was in this store before. The black ceiling had small spots of white showing through, so the rehab didn't include that, I'm guessing. You order at a walk-up window, where an overworked woman hurriedly packs meals. She was not overly pleasant. My family was not impressed with our lunches. The litmus test is always; would you return to this place? Including me, I got 3 "no" votes. So, this will be the last supper at this establishment. Oh, and by the way, It's Tarpon Springs.

Just opened in the far right corner of a shopping center anchored by Walmart on US 19 and Tarpon Avenue, Tarpon Springs. Very soft opening. Their sign caught my attention. I was hesitant to try. I thought this was just another mediocre fast food take out however as I was looking in the window there was a lot of seating.I noticed a suchi bar to the right freshly madeand a order line. What impressed me while I glanced at their posted menu was the variety of Japanese offerings including Miso soup, noodles, hibachi offerings including beef, chicken, and shrimp. As I'm reading, first time hungry customers kept streaming in so I took the plunge. The menu is impressive. I ordered Habachi shrimp, vegetables and rice with Miso soup and a beverage. It came to $10! The alternative was to visit one of the fine local Japanese steakhouses nearby however I didn't want to invest $25 or more just for myself.As one orders, you're given a number which you attaché to a holder on your table and your order is delivered to you although they don't have servers perse. My soup came out first. It had a great dark color and rich taste with bits of tofu.My big surprise was the hearty plate I ordered. I never expected so much food. At least a dozen good sized properly cooked shrimp with lots of grilled vegetables: zucchini, mushrooms, carrots, broccoli, onions atop a generous portion of rice. Japanese soy sauce is on each table and chop sticks are available. Utensils are plastic. Authentic Japanese bubble tea and soft drinks are lined up at the order counter to help promote their appearance and make it easy to order. The restaurant is well organized in front and the Hibachi kitchen is visible in the back. I had enough food left for another meal which I brought home. I will definitely return. Good job and Congrats.You're doing all the right things. Sometimes good things come in small settings. This is true here!

Doesn't look like much when you walk by because it's next to a smoke shop and Walmart but holes in the wall are my favorite hidden gems! My wife loved her Philadelphia rolls and we both real enjoyed the clear soup. The steak was flavorful and the rice was cooked perfect. There salad was so good had a delicious ginger taste. I would DEFINITELY recommend. It's nice inside the restaurant as well and staff were kind. Don't forget to order yum yum sauce

I wasn:t expecting anything, much! However I got back to my desk and dug in. All I can say, it was a wow in my mouth!This seems to be HIDDEN GEM AT us 19 AND tARPON AVE NEXT DOOR TO an eye glass place.My shrimp and rice, I really would have liked my rice cooked, However thr best shrimp bbqued! I also ordered pan fried shrimp dumplings - not what you'd expect, I WIll order the same food again! I will venture outside my comfort zone. I really recomend them.Next time pics will be added

I spotted this place while I was out shopping and decided to get some food to take home. The prices are beyond reasonable! I was able to get an entire meal at their lunch special price (EVEN THOUGH IT WAS THE WEEKEND!!!) of $7.75 which included a huge portion of rice, veggies, choice of hibachi main (I think it was a choice of shrimp, steak, chicken, or extra veggies -I picked steak) and a drink. I love that they offer a lunch special on the weekend as well as weekdays. I added on a California roll since I could see they were rolling them fresh to order. Very happy with the quality of the food for the price. My food was hot, fresh, and I will be back.

Saw the sign out front and we decided to give it a try. It's nice to see variety in this area aside from fast food spots. Everything was great however the only thing I wasn't too impressed by was the spring rolls and shrimp dumplings. A bit too mushy inside for my liking. Aside from that everything was delicious. My family and I really enjoyed it and will be coming back.

This place is so unprofessional, my order was wrong they gave me double steak and I wanted steak and chicken the woman there said when my order was placed it was ordered wrong and I said okay can you please remake my order she then goes on and says the prices are different from the steak and it would be an up charge for it I said your going to charge me for extra because my order was wrong she was very rude and wanted to make a scene about it when all I wanted was my order to be remade she then goes to grab the chicken and slides it on the counter.
