Great spot for a hibachi lunch and if hosting a small birthday party it will fit your needs. Our chef was awesome, experienced and funny. The food was delicious. We had a couple of people with egg allergies and they catered for it. The steak and shrimp was cooked perfectly for my liking and my cousins had lobster and scallops which were cooked well. It was just right. For the price it was on par with similar restaurants. The entire staff was pleasant, attentive and accommodating. The drinks were on point according to my aunt. Ample parking in the rear of the building.

This is the first time I have returned since the pandemic. Place is still nice but definitely costs a lot more than before. I spent about $110.00 for 2 person hibachi which used to be about $80.00 but experience was still good.

Firstly AMAZING service very quick waters were never empty and so so kind and caring! I had a few questions about specials and they made sure they got the right answers for me and even let me taste the ramen broth before servicing me the dish! Excellent service and the food was great! I definitely want to come here again when I’m in the area next!

This place is a must go for our family when we want to celebrate a special event on when visitors come. The food is not too expensive considering where it is. The service is fast and entertaining chefs are very good even for little children.

We’ve been here a few times! Their Gamera, Godzilla, and Miro Roll were our favorites! Their best hibachi was the filet mignon! We’ve also tried the seafood trio which was okay. Please go and try their plum wine which was super delicious!

I came here recently and saw some price hike but.. that’s everywhere right now. I eat here so much that i did not take that many pics. But i have a great vid.. i love the hibachi fried rice. Its so good

I had an excellent lunch experience here. I usually forgo the hibachi in a US Japanese restaurant, in favor of the sushi if they have it, or even better, a bento box and lunch. The Sushi Bento had an ample portion, with a great amount of variety. The staff was friendly as well. Highly recommend!

Great experience! The service, the food, the atmosphere, were extremely pleasing to my family and myself, both times we visited within the last couple months.

Shiro of Japan was my favorite restaurant growing up so I was very excited to see it is still there on my recent business trip to Long Island. It was everything I remember and I am so glad I drove out to Old Country Road for dinner.
