Little Tokyo Japanese Restaurant

We went last week for my boyfriends birthday and had 7 in our group. Food and service was amazing. The chef was the best we had seen in a while. Great show and included the kids. We will definitely be back. Only downfall is they don't accept reservations. We had a 35 minute wait before being seated.

A nice and basic, meets all your needs sushi restaurant. At dinner time I was well attended to with multiple servers checking in on me and it took less than 10 minutes for my food to show up. I judge every sushi place by their eel nigiri and theirs was melt in your mouth tender. They have a $5 hot carafe of sake on the menu that hit the spot. The shrimp tempura roll had good crunch and when I asked for a side of spicy mayo it was immediately delivered. I would recommend this place if you like very fresh sashimi and sushi. All the dishes I saw other patrons consuming looked very good.

We ate here as a party of 10 (4 adults and 6 children, ages 1-9). We frequent another hibachi place in Knoxville; however, since visiting, I think we will be switching to Little Tokyo. The Chef interacted with my kids and didn't act annoyed or bothered by them. He even repeated some of the tricks they enjoyed. Food was great and ate on the leftovers for two days. 10/10 will be revisiting.

I ordered Scallops and Salmon for $13.99 on the lunch menu. Nothing special about it. I should have taken pictures to see if anyone else would be as shocked as I was when I was served 2 medium sized Scallops and a 3" long (it was probably more like a little over 2" long) by 1" wide piece of Salmon. No joke. They ask for cash tip(s). i have a few tips I can give them! No next time for me. I will go back to Wasabi where you get a substantial serving of meat/seafood/vegetables - plus a show - for about the same lunch price. I forgot to mention our disinterested server.
