While visiting family in Augusta, my son suddenly had a craving for hibachi before we got back on the road. I literally sat at the gas station for 20 minutes searching for hibachi takeout and reading reviews. I decided to give this place a try, and I’m so glad I did. The young man taking orders had great customer service and was super friendly. I placed our order, and about 12 minutes later, we were out the door with our food. When I tell you the food was delicious, I really mean it. My seven-year-old absolutely loved it, and that says a lot! Whenever we’re in the Augusta area again, we’ll definitely be stopping by. Thank you so much for a great experience!

Great first visit! Tried Hibachi Grill Express for the first time and was really impressed. I ordered the well-done chicken Hibachi entree, and it was perfect — cooked through but still juicy, with great flavor. The veggies were fresh and crisp, and the fried rice was delicious. Portions were generous, and the food came out hot and fast. The staff was polite and attentive, making sure my order was just right. I’ll definitely be back!

First time I’ve rolled thru here. I asked the last for a moment and she was very happy to oblige. I chose steak fried rice, medium w extra onions. She was extremely friendly and happy at window. I told her it was my first time there an she happily showed me the sauce and asked if I would need another. She also gave me chopsticks and a menu was already in my bag also! Super customer service with a great voice and smile. The food was good. It was hot and moist not greasy. It does need more seasoning for my taste. (I did not like the prepackaged YumYum sauce. It did them a disservice for sure.) I will definitely be back for the food. Very clean inside and no issues getting out onto Washington Rd. I cant wait to try the different combos now that I’ve tried the basic rice and steak. … and every single piece of steak was perfect AND tender with zero gristle! If they have the flavors in the sauces I will add the extra star.

Listen....you cannot beat a 2.99 lil chicken special, ya'll. The food is fresh, comes out fast and the service was pretty good. They also have a lunch special that is steak or shrimp for 6.50. The waiter was nice, the people were smiling, they played good music and the food was good. I just need more of ya'll going to get some food there.

First time eating here and was impressed. Food portions are really good. Prices are reasonable. Our food was hot and fresh. I got the House Fried Rice and it was good with even portions of steak chicken shrimp and vegetables and plenty of rice. Even came with yum yum sauce.

Nice place for quick service hibachi. The staff are very friendly and attentive, and food did not take too long to be received after ordering. The interior is very clearly not renovated much as it feels just like its old business (the Taco Bell) but aside from taking in the nostalgia you’re more than likely taking the food to go. Food was very good. Teriyaki chicken entree came with a good amount of chicken and rice as well as a good blend of stir fried vegetables. The fried dumplings were good too, a longer fry to make it crispier would’ve made it a little better, however. Overall it was a pleasant experience.
