Miyako Teppan-yaki in Birmingham

Good food and cooking but... We booked for 5pm on a weekday, safe in the knowledge that their website says they open at 3pm. We arrived 10 minutes before 5pm and the restaurant was closed and lifeless. Puzzled, we phoned the number on the menu board which led to a recorded message saying 'leave a message', so we left our phone number. They called after a while to say that they only open if they have a booking so they opened up for us just after 5pm. Place was bitterly cold, no effective heating, delivery boxes of drinks piled in the entrance way. What a miserable impression. Eventually lights were switched on but no attempt had been made to prepare for our booking or arrival or to pre-heat the place.. We sat shivering in our winter coats and tried to enjoy the excellent, talented chef and the very nice food but the 'Teppanyaki Experience' package we'd booked was not good at all, in fact truly miserable. Someone in management needs to get a grip on this attitude swiftly, we won't be going back until it changes.

We booked a table two weeks ago and was coming from London we didn't get a full show as the chef was in a hurry so he just cooked our food sadly I had a hair in my beef steak soon as it got out on my plate got charged £20 for a kids meal for an under one and he only got noodles with no chicken nothing in it what a let down to then get billed £175 that is crazy to me !? The lady could not speak English I told her I don't eat sea foodand told me to get the appetiser which was salmon which I did not even touch as I don't eat sea food !!

I enjoyed coming here mainly because our chef delivered some very entertaining banter. But there were also niggles - some aspects of our drinks orders had to be repeated when they were forgotten. I was very cold and sat in my coat most of the evening. I felt that the music was little repetitive. I also felt that the food tasted OK but it was not exceptional. For me more energy needs to go into making the food as tasty as possible, and no-one would really mind about the show not happening.

Went Saturday night. Honestly tasteless food. Soup was ok. Overpriced

The best Teppanyaki you can find in England! Great service and food! Worth the price for the quantity of food served. Special shoutout to the chefs for making it a memorable experience. Geisha cocktail is a must try!

Walking into Teppanyaki feels like stepping into a little slice of Japan. They don’t just serve food—they share the story behind each dish, with a genuine passion that’s infectious, their attention to detail felt personal. The food itself? Flawless. Each bite of food felt like it was crafted just for us, and the tempura was crispy perfection. But honestly, it’s KK and the chef Mike here who made it unforgettable. If you want to be treated like you’re the only guest in the room, this is your spot.

Our first experience of teppenyaki in the UK, jefferson our chef was amazing funny and a great cook. Food was brilliant apart rom the apple in the desert it was to hard.the service started off ok but the last drink we asked for didnt arrive. The only downside was that it was too cold,I kept my coat on for most of the evening,we were situated right at the back by the kitchen which every time they opened the door it made it colder. We had a great meal I did think the overall price including drinks was slightly high at £226 for 3 people,but its not cheap to anywhere now it was a good evening..wewpuld go back but save up a bit first!

Food was amazing, drinks service was hit and miss but not the end of the world. However, the restaurant was COLD, uncomfortably so. It wouldn’t put me off coming back but I wouldn’t go again in the winter.

Maybe it was the time of day we went but we were the loudest group in the place. Guy doing the food, amazing. Food, amazing, service, good but it took forever to get 7 booked in. I would defo go again in a heartbeat.

Queríamos una cena de cumpleaños con algo fuera de lo común y no nos decepcionó. Llamé para hacer la reserva y le expliqué sobre la celebración de cumpleaños para mi nieta. Un miembro del personal muy servicial tomó los detalles de la reserva y se ofreció a organizar una sesión de origami mientras esperábamos a sentarnos, lo cual fue realmente apreciado. La experiencia de ver la comida que se está cocinando delante de nosotros fue muy entretenido y animado, y la comida en sí era perfecto. El personal era muy atento, amable y profesional y nos hizo sentir como en casa.

Amazing experience with entertaining staff and exquisite food!

I loved the food. The waiting staff were awesome. But. The foolish manager ruined it. We were a group of 10. At the end they gave us the 700£ bill. The manager was rude and thick when we pointed out that we wanted to pay separately. The waiting staff were all brilliant though. Also. At the end, you get herded out. The waiting area is too small. You can't move because you're knocking into incoming or leaving people. Nice food but I'd never return.

I was quite disappointed. I imagine you'd enjoy it if it was a completely new experience but there is far better food, service and restaurants in Birmingham, especially for the cost. Essentially, £50 for a 3 bite starter, some fried rice, 2 king prawns, 2 scallops and a small piece of salmon. By all means not terrible, just not worth it in my opinion.

Amazing place & great service. Everyone must try!

Visiting second time as a birthday treat for friends. Like this place. Food is nice, chef doing his best entertaining and feeding guests. Nice welcoming staff.

I and my wife celebrate our marriage anniversary there it was wonderful the food is very delicious and different from other Japanese restaurant we have been to. The Staffs are friendly and the funny cook we enjoyed ourself and we are coming back again.

It was my fiancés birthday on Saturday. We booked a table at 6 for 4 people. We arrived there 15 min before the booking, still at 7 we were not at our table yet. The starters arrived at 7:45! And my fiancée who is celiac and pescatarian received fried chicken on the although we explained her dietary requirements multiple times before arrival and at least 5 times at the restaurant! I spoke to the manager and requested her food to be cooked before the rest to prevent cross contamination. When the chef arrived at the table (he brought the meat and fish on the same tray - MAJOR CONCERN FOR THOSE WHO ARE ALLERGIC TO FISH!), asked for dietary requirements AGAIN even though it was written on his ticket by the manager, but we answered the question as we always want to make sure she doesn’t get sick. He started to cook, rice was ok, salmon was ok. Then he started to cook prawns, chicken, beef and lamb at the same time! Used the same utensils to mix fish and chicken, then put all prawns and chicken on my fiancé’s place even though we told him 5 TIMES by now that she doesn’t eat meat. But it still didn’t finish. He went on to cook beef/lamb again put both on my fiancé’s plate…. At the end of the evening she couldn’t eat anything. As you can imagine she was freaked out about the cross contamination and her meal was £50+ just for her. The manager came to the table afterwards as it was obvious we were not happy and I was noticeably worried about my partner and asked how everything was. We are not the kind of people who complain as we work in the same industry and understand when mistakes happen but I couldn’t stay quiet this time as there was an obvious blatant regard for her allergy and dietary restrictions. So I privately spoke to the manager about our discontent and even though she gave a 20% discount on our final bill after we paid she tried to cover the disaster saying that the chef was new and tried to hand us a fridge magnet and a celebrations chocolate… This was a MASSIVE slap in the face and embarrassing on the company. We never had such a horrible evening like this before, and imagine the frustration as it was my fiancé’s birthday. Particularly as she had a reaction minutes after leaving and is still sick 2 days later!!!! I hope after this night everyone got a full trainings section of allergens and dietary restrictions. I hope this would not happen again to other people but highly doubt anything will be done. I can say we will not be back and warn all of those with ANY dietary restrictions/allergies to stay far away from this place.

Era mi cumpleaños de prometido el sábado. Reservamos una mesa a las 6 para 4 personas. Llegamos allí 15 minutos antes de la reserva, todavía a las 7 no estábamos en nuestra mesa todavía. Los titulares llegaron a las 7: 45 ! Y mi prometida, que es celíaca y pescataria, recibió pollo frito en el restaurante, aunque explicamos sus necesidades dietéticas varias veces antes de la llegada y al menos 5 veces en el restaurante! Hablé con la gerente y le pedí que cocinara los alimentos antes que el resto para evitar la contaminación cruzada. Cuando el chef llegó a la mesa (trajo la carne y el pescado en la misma bandeja - ¡GRAN PREOCUPACIÓN PARA AQUELLOS QUE SON ALÉRGICOS AL PESCADO! ) , pidió requisitos dietéticos de NUEVO a pesar de que estaba escrito en su boleto por el gerente, pero respondimos a la pregunta ya que siempre queremos asegurarnos de que no se enferme. Empezó a cocinar, el arroz estaba bien, el salmón estaba bien. ¡Entonces empezó a cocinar gambas, pollo, ternera y cordero al mismo tiempo! Utilicé los mismos utensilios para mezclar pescado y pollo, luego puse todos los langostinos y pollo en casa de mi prometido a pesar de que ya le dijimos 5 VECES que no come carne. Pero todavía no terminó. Él pasó a cocinar carne de res / cordero de nuevo puso ambos en el plato de mi prometido ... . Al final de la noche no podía comer nada. Como se puede imaginar, estaba asustada por la contaminación cruzada y su comida era de £ 50 + solo para ella. El gerente vino a la mesa después, ya que era obvio que no estábamos contentos y me preocupé notablemente por mi compañero y pregunté cómo estaba todo. No somos el tipo de personas que se quejan mientras trabajamos en la misma industria y entienden cuando ocurren errores, pero esta vez no pude quedarme callada, ya que había una evidente consideración flagrante por su alergia y restricciones dietéticas. Así que hablé en privado con la gerente sobre nuestro descontento y a pesar de que ella dio un descuento del 20% en nuestra factura final después de que pagamos ella trató de cubrir el desastre diciendo que el chef era nuevo y trató de entregarnos un imán de nevera y un chocolate de celebraciones... Esto fue una bofetada MASIVA en la cara y embarazoso para la empresa. Nunca antes habíamos tenido una velada tan horrible como esta, e imagina la frustración ya que era el cumpleaños de mi prometido. Especialmente porque tuvo una reacción minutos después de irse y sigue enferma 2 días después. Espero que después de esta noche todos tengan una sección completa de entrenamiento de alérgenos y restricciones dietéticas. Espero que esto no le vuelva a pasar a otras personas, pero dudo mucho que se haga algo. Puedo decir que no volveremos y advertir a todos aquellos con CUALQUIER restricción dietética / alergias a permanecer lejos de este lugar.

Increíble comida y servicio. El chef era muy entretenido. Definitivamente vale la pena una visita. Muy recomendable. Aclaró una miserable lluvia el domingo por la tarde.

Great experience and amazing food 😋

Gran experiencia Teppanyaki. Los chefs crean comida increíble y una experiencia gastronómica divertida. Los cócteles de autor son geniales. Sin duda vamos a volver. 👍

We had a 5 course brunch for 3 people. Groupon deal. It was delicious and plentiful. We will definitely try the teppanyaki on our next visit

Had a great Teppanyaki dining experience at Miyako. Our chef, Orlando, was entertaining and funny, involved all at the table in action. Food was cooked professionally and tasty. All staff was welcoming and easy to communicate with. Thanks

Nice intro to teppanyaki. I'd say it was a tad over priced for what's on offer. Didn't feel I couldn't make any of that at home, quite easily, as recipes were pretty basic. The people working are 0% japanese and the decor rather dull or outdated I'm not sure which it is.

Was amazing experience for my wife's birthday meal, our chef was entertaining and funny, involved all at the table in action. Food was cooked professionally and tasty. All staff was welcoming and easy to communicate with. Cocktails worth to try, and big glass, worth of money. Teppanyaki Royal meat was cooked to perfection. It was night to remember. Thanks

A fabulous lunch experience. They were happy to open early to accommodate our exclusive reunion lunch. Beautifully hosted by Kiran, outstanding service from Lisa, and great food and cooking show delivered by Chef Orlando. Thank you.

Took my son for his birthday Service food and atmosphere was amazing Truly enjoyed every second Will definitely return

Kiran and Lisa were so accommodating and welcoming! It was such an experience to watch the chefs cook and the food was absolutely phenomenal! Thank you so much teppanyaki! We will be back!

Food really underwhelming and overpriced.

We had a Trppanyaki experience in this restaurant, it was much better than one we had in similar restaurants. The chef was very good entertaining and food was lovely. I recommend the saki in there, particularly the hot one with the main course.

Went for lunch on a whim one Saturday - very entertaining and attentive chef who asked preferences and served some very nice dishes - will enjoy a 2nd visit soon

A nice restaurant with perfect service and a wonderful atmosphere. The food is delicious and prepared in front of you, and the chef himself entertains you and lifts your mood. Everyone is smiling and polite. I recommend.

Such a fun night with our chef cooking our food in an entertaining way infront of us. The food was very tasty and plenty of it! This was my second time of going and first for my friends who really enjoyed it. Highly recommend if you want an entertaining night with delicious food.

Great food and a fun experience very friendly staff

Amazing experience I took my partner for his birthday before a show . The staff , atmosphere and food where fabulous. Definitely go again hope we have AJ our chief again .

A fun evening x great food and great showmanship

If I could give minus I would. We went here for dinner and have been multiple times and had great evenings - but I will never return. We arrived and had to wait 20mins before table was available, we had to tell them we were heading to the theatre and then rushed the meal. A lady next to us was then unfortunately violently sick, on one of our bags. Rather than deal with it the ‘manager’ waited at least 5 mins before doing anything, leaving us sat by vomit, then moved others. I again explained we had to get to the theatre and was then told to wait as I’d made a scene - mistaken of being the person who was sick - she was quickly corrected. I said we’re leaving and was told to pay for a bottle of wine, which I had not drunk even a quarter of. I refused and quickly left - with vomit still on the floor. Awful management and never been treated so appalling - manager needs training - fast

Food was mediocre, but not worth the price. If they didn't make it in front of you, I'd of given it one star.

Great restaurant, awesome food and brilliant service. Shout out to the Nepalese Rock Star Chef - made Milo’s day…

We had an excellent experience on Saturday afternoon. We were celebrating a belated birthday. The staff were welcoming and the chef was engaging and entertaining. The food was great. We are planning to return with a larger party later in the year.

We went to celebrate our wedding anniversary and had the set menu. The food was delicious and plentiful, the chef was entertaining, and the service was excellent. I would recommend going here for something different from other restaurants. 5 stars from me!!

We attended here for my nephews birthday. My sister in law asked of we could order from the starter menu and the set menu, we were told yes. Birthday celebration We got to the restaurant at 7.00 pm and by 9:21 pm some of us who ordered from the starters menu, had not eaten yet. Those who ordered starters waited 20 minutes between each starter and they were still waiting for their fried rice Diners who came after us, seated after us, were served first, had eaten and left the restaurant before some of us had even eaten. I would not recommend attending here with a large party, as our dining experience was horrendous. The staff were friendly, but not really helpful when it came to serving us.

Went for my birthday. Absolutely amazing in every sense. Thankyou

Spent a fantastic birthday evening here. The food was of such high standard and cooked really well by a delightful young man who was very entertaining and tall! The staff were lovely, courteous, attentive and friendly. We had the best time from start to finish. Thank you so much for making our evening such a wonderful experience . We will definitely return.

Greeted warmly by the manager, Karen, who made sure we were seated promptly with drinks and appetizers. Our chef, RJ, cooked an amazing meal for us and kept us highly entertained during our visit. Sarah, our waitress, never let us be without drinks and made sure we were well taken care of. Visit this place when in Birmingham and you will not be disappointed.

This place is fantastic! Relaxed and beautiful interior and amazing staff! My son and I went for the 5 course brunch, it was all delicious and the teppanyaki chef put on a very impressive show. Seriously couldn't be happier 10/10

‘Management’, where can I get started, we opted to use a groupon voucher which has been stated to be used at this venue, however I was lucky to call the place suggesting I had this voucher so they could prepare for me and to make it easier for them. Instead the lady who i’m assuming is the manager asserted her dominance, did not allow me to have a chance to speak, said in a rude manner that they do not accept it on a busy night. The groupon voucher does not state anything about being used on a busy night or not, I have never been this disappointed with a restaurant. I often look to go to places with a good reputation, this restaurant being one of them, the manager on the phone seemed to be not bothered about my requests and wanted me to speak to groupon regarding this. This is a restaurant matter where groupon are only the promoters. They need to find new service staff as this seems to be an issue, especially over the phone where you would want to convey a decent first impression. Instead I would suggest the Shogun Cube Teppanyaki where I enjoyed an amazing meal and amazing service from the best staff. You will not find that here instead you will have an annoyed manager not allowing you a coupon which is for their restaurant at the times they are open. Refusing this voucher had led me to creating this review, I have been left unhappy and disappointed. I cannot imagine the staff working under this manager, for her to speak to customers like this, it would mean that she treats the staff 10x worse as she has more power over them. I will not be visiting this place, I would rather go to another city or the shogun in the cube. Utterly Disappointed.

Great experience, think we had the set meal options ( was with work) nice food and great chef banter when cooking it for us.

The waiter service for drinks was very slow and we did end up walking out before we have our pubbing has we was waiting for 25 minutes after we finished our main course has did the family we was sitting with. It also told us 15 minutes to pay the bill. Needs more waitering staff.

Our chef definitely went above and beyond for our son today. He was so inclusive and it made my boys day. Highly recommend.

Wonderful service, food was incredible. 10/10.

Food is a bit salty, but the cook is funny and atmosphere is good

Very nice looking place in the centre of Birmingham the food was ok but I felt the menu was unclear. The service was brilliant however

from making the enquiry to eating there, the whole experience was great. i went there about 10 years ago and its just as good as i remembered it big shout out for Waiter: AKUL Chef: MARLON Manager: KIRAN

Such a fun experience! Not only are the meals prepared infront of you, while you sit at the table, the chef is a real showman and very entertaining. There's a lovely and fun atmosphere and the prices are pretty good too. Did I mention that the food tastes amazing? One of my favourite places to eat in Birmingham.

We had a great night for my sons birthday! Our server was hilarious! Food was really tasty! Just wish we would of ordered more! Great fun!

I've been a loyal customer at Miyako for over 8 years, but my recent experience was disappointing. I recently encountered exceptionally poor service. It appears there might be a new manager, or receptionist—uncertain of her position. This individual displayed hostility and treated me in an unpleasant manner throughout my visit, ruining my entire experience. It's regrettable, as I used to speak highly of this restaurant, recommending it to friends, family, and colleagues. I placed my handbag on the counter while my friend waited for the bill to pay as I was applying my lip gloss, she criticized me, suggesting I should have used the restroom if I wanted to fix myself. In shock I couldn’t believe her tone & what she just said imagine this is a team member of this restaurant. I then inquired about new management, she asserted that the same manager had been in charge for over 20 years darling I was truly shocked by the way she addressed me. The whole place has gone downhill, the food, the flavour & the authenticity. Unfortunately, the uncomfortable interaction with this staff member makes it impossible for me to return to Miyako ever again. Stick to the one in the cube real authentic Japanese food with good happy staff.

Management was extremely rude, over booked the venue and made excuses about our time slot, poor personal hygiene

What a great experience. We had wonderful food and were thoroughly entertained by our chef. I'd recommend it and I'll be back.

Terrible from start to finish, upon entrance staff are very friendly and welcoming. That is until you declare that you have a Groupon Voucher, we were seated amongst other guests who also were using Groupon and the food, service, and ambience was utterly disgusting. There is no set menu so they describe the courses to you, good luck if you have any special dietary requirements as I doubt this would be catered for. The restaurant was freezing cold for our entire sitting, two small portable heaters place around doing absolutely nothing, we had to eat in our coats. Food inedible, and is not 8 courses, freshly cooked infront of you but certainly not fresh produce used, everything tasted off. We were not treated as other guest, very little interaction in comparison to other tables that were not using Groupon. All in all complete waste of money we left cold & hungry.

Took my partner here for new years, it was unfortunate to experience an underwhelming five course meal. I booked this through groupon and was unhappy with the ambience of the table we sat on. We had sat with other strangers who obviously booked via groupon. Unfortunately we didn’t get the same experience as other restaurant goers. We had been sat silently on the table with no experience of watching our food being cooked in front of us like the other tables. The meals we ate came plate by plate from the kitchen. The prawn noodles only had three prawns and a large amount of noodles. It was actually quite depressing. The good thing is we loved the staff as they are all so lovely, kind, attentive and sweet. It’s such a shame they couldn’t create the same ambience for groupon users.

What a disappointment. We have been going here for 25 years and after this evening's experience, we are considering not going back. Poor service and poor quality food compared to all our previous experiences. Miso soup without miso; poor quality chicken, portions sizes that didn't warrant the price - koi set meal main only had 2 pieces of salmon, 2 prawns and 1 scallop, when it used to be double this. We have always had this menu and never had to complain about portions or value. The price has also increased for less food. The person who was 'in charge' to whom we expressed our disappointment came up with various reasons...its our christmas menu, we changed our supplier, its a company thing. The teppanyaki chef was good and engaging but the rest of the experience and food was very disapponting. Hope they make changes to go back to the great quality and service they used to have.

Great food, excellent service, I have a halal diet requirement, the restaurant does cater for this and also went the extra mile by having a hot plate separate for our party to avoid cross contamination. Very friendly service with a can do attitude. I would recommend.

Good food, great service and fun atmosphere. Look out for the fireball. Great photo-op. Would recommend 👌

Just did a work meal with about 50 people. Not just a meal, an amazing experience. £70 a head and we all had loads of drinks so very reasonable.

Was a really nice place, I personally wouldn't choose it due to the price and I wasn't that keen on my food, but was nice atmosphere and the chef was great.

AMAZING!! Our Chef was Brilliant cooking live for us as well as entertaining us with jokes and plenty of tricks on the table. So much fun. Food super tasty, fresh and plenty on the plate. The cocktail here is a must. This place is really worth the extra spend for the unique experience that the restaurant offers. Staff were so polite and constantly attentive. Atmosphere felt like in Tokyo. Very different and nice. The staff brought out a special Birthday treat which really made our evening celebrations. A true gem in the heart of Birmingham. Thank you all at Miyako Teppanyaki we had a truly memorable evening

The atmosphere was nice, having your food cooked in front of you and the chef very entertaining but that's it! The food itself was a big let down, starters was a small portion of 4 finger food, a tiny bowl of salad with 3 mouthfuls it was finished, egg fried rice for 10 ppl was rice with 4 eggs hence the egg was non existence in the rice. The majority of the group opted for the Osaka menu, lamb and shrimps. Both fish and meat was unseasoned, tasted raw to the point I thought I was going to vomit. Received 2 large shrimps and a average portion of lamb with a tiny portion of shredded vegetables. Dessert was the smallest scope ever of ice cream and 1 slice of grilled banana. Overall the price paid for the food versus food received was seriously at odds. Paid £40 for set menu and received a KFC box meal. Waited ages for the 1 signature cocktail to arrive which was a gin mixture, very weak and warm, no ice. The evening was entertaining however a big let down on the food, left feeling very hungry and £53 short changed. Photos do not lie but the meal itself was £40!

Très sympa! Le chef a fait le show et la nourriture était bonne. On a passé un excellent moment! Attention à vos sourcils, ça flambe pas mal!

Great food, service and show from the chef. Brilliant experience.

Great theatre to your dining experience

Great food and experience of having your dinner cooked in the hibachi. First they serve you a salad, then the cooking starts. The chef makes the rice side, then the different meat mains: fish, shimp, chicken, beef, all really good. The desert was also great: mango ice cream!

Japanese restaurant with pleasant & Friendly Staff. Great food cooked in front of you. This restaurant makes eating out like a visit to the theatre. Not cheap, but well worth a visit for a special occasion. It is situated in the Arcadian Centre in Birmingham's China Town Quarter, with a great variety of other places to visit.

The food was quite expensive compared to the portion size you get. The cooking show was OK but another chef does it a lot better. There was no flipping of the eggs or anything. The last time we went it was a lot better.

Fantastic food! The chef was bloody brilliant!!

It's pricey but the food taste and quality matches the price, its cheaper to get the set menu and you can order any other side you want from the standard menu, thes some items not on the menu so it's well worth asking the staff which other items they do. The staff are very friendly, excellent customer service, explain well for anything you're unsure of and ensure your allergies are noted. There is cross contamination (don't worry, staff let you know about this when you order) so if you're not okay with that, place isn't for you. Atmosphere here is good and staff will check up on ypu throughout to make sure everything is okay. Definetly a place you'd want to come for events and celebration. A very pleasant experience and will return again.

A bit expensive compared to ginza in Nottingham but food and service on point

Amazing experience. Fantastic food. And service second to none. Highly recommended

Milo was a wonderful chef for us, made the whole evening very entertaining!

Beautiful experience from start to finish. I called to reserve and was called back by the loveliest lady Kiran. My friends and I came to celebrate an important milestone and Kiran made sure to arrange something special for us and checked in regularly on us. The chefs were excellent and so entertaining/interactive. I enjoyed my meal (Sapporo) and was happy with the food portions and price. Credit to the waitresses too for being so attentive. Thank you Miyako team 💐

It was amazing 😍 i dont really like Japanese/Chinese food cos of the seafood. But this was a surprise for my partner. The show was amazing i loved it every minute 🥰 The food was tasty cos they really cared about that i dont like seafood. Thank u I really appreciate.

What can I say never tried this food before buy omg it's the best food I ever had and the chef was really talented

Lovely restaurant decor, The chef was very friendly and full of good fun. The food was gorgeous as I was expecting and a great dining experience. Would definitely recommend . !!!!

Great food and a lovely fun atmosphere

Absolutely amazing show cooking by the chef's and I'm am very thankful for their consideration about my food allergies highly recommend can't wait to take my dad on his birthday

Simply the best totally love this place great food fab service and areal treat for that special occasssion keep up the good work

Pretty average. Been to a Teppanyaki in Manchester before, this wasn’t as good. Food was alright. Chef seemed worn out, there were only 2 chefs for a full restaurant of 5 or so tables. We had to wait a long time to be served. Probably wouldn’t go here again. Food wasnt that flavoursome.

Great fun with friendly staff. Food was amazing and plenty of it.

Amazing experience. We celebrated for my 18th Birthday. All the staff were so attentive and welcoming and our chef, “Milon” was absolutely brilliant! So entertaining and so delicious. Would thoroughly recommend 🍾

Chef was amazing. Very funny too.

Went there for dinner several times now and it always such good fun ! For the price you actually get quite a lot of food and show ! Will go back 😉

Wow x 10 The whole experience was amazing. The chef waa totally awesome, friendly staff. Nice & clean. Food was divine. Amazing ambience, other diners were very friendly. The flames are a bit of a thrill, quite exhilarating dare i say it. Starter was a very interesting mix, The soup was quite delightful as was the salad. The main was really good very tasty and freshly made & served. The dessert was satisfying as it privided an apt ending to our dining experience. Would definitely recommend. A unique change for dining out. Hibochi + Flames is always a crowd pleaser. Thank you to all who shared served or attended and made the night a magical experience.

Lovely place. It is pristine and cozy. The fish is fresh and fried rice is addictive. Rice in maki was softish to my taste. Stuff is welcoming and the prices are reasonable. They claim to be the first Japanese restaurant in Brum, so something to brag about after the visit.

Was a great night. Host was amazing

Great night, fantastic atmosphere and food.Our host Claire was extremely attentive and looked after all our needs. More than enough food - don't over do it with your order - 5 of us picked a mixture of fish and meat set meals - we then shared all.Our chef (Mr Miyagi) was great fun, extremely engaging and made our night.

Tuvimos una agradable velada aquí con amigos que el ambiente es genial. El personal te levanta e involucra y hace que sea una verdadera risa.La comida es encantadora, optamos por el menú fijo y no nos decepcionó.Lo único que diría es que estás tan cerca de la comida como de la cocina si planeas salir después de que yo no lo haría, el olor a comida tiende a pegarse a ti.

No había estado en este restaurante antes, pero hice una prueba antes de llevar a nuestro único hijo a una 40ª comida de celebración. Gran servicio y atención al detalle. Buena carta de bebidas con botellas de vino asequibles. Decidimos salir del menú a la carta. Se instaló para la comida del conjunto. Comida fabulosa, aunque demasiada soja la hizo muy salada. Salté la sopa de miso ya que también era muy salada. El bistec y el pollo se cocinaron muy bien al igual que las verduras acompañantes. Fabuloso dulce. A pesar de la comida salada estará en algún lugar que usemos nuevamente.

Recomiendo este restaurante a todos ustedes. No importa familia o pareja. Este es un buen lugar para disfrutar bien y ponerse al día con cualquiera.Chef Marlon es muy divertido y amable. ¡Las comidas son increíbles! ! ! También tienen comida vegetariana. Los mariscos son increíbles y grandes.Esta noche, simplemente buscamos en línea la cena en línea y luchamos contra esta que es extremadamente afortunada y desafiante volverá con la familia o amigos nuevamente. Ojalá podamos volver a tener al chef Marlon con nosotros.Gracias por todo el pie de dama que nos cortó esta noche. También, gracias al chef Marlon, tuvimos una cena muy buena esta noche. Volveremos pronto.

Buena experiencia en general, situado en el centro de Arcadia. El chef prepara la comida en una placa grande que usted y sus invitados se sientan alrededor. Chef también es animador y tiene algunos trucos para impresionarte, voltear, lanzar, etc. y se involucra a todos. Mientras que el entretenimiento es bueno y agradable, la comida está bien. Precio sabio lo encontró caro para lo que es. Tuve la combinación de mariscos a los 23, solo 1 langostino, 2 vieiras y una cola de langosta. La comida estaba recocida y gomosa. Pensé que la comida estaba seca, sin salsa. El entrante tampoco era bueno y no podía comer. Dice que la compañía era excelente si lo que buscaba era una experiencia adecuada para usted.

Service. Surly head waitress. Lovely other staff. Non-optional gratuity.We arrived at 7pm on Friday and were shown to our table by an unsmiling head waitress. Immediately after handing out the menus she demanded what we wanted to drink..give us a chance to view the menu! This same head waitress did not smile all night and was quite rude in wanting to shift us out for the next seating at 9pm. She also added on a non-optional gratuity and was quite grumpy when the group of 8 of us wanted to split the bill, scowling that she would not get a tip as we had put it all on out credit cards. The regular young waitresses were polite and our chef sweet.Food. If you like garlic and butter, this will be your thing! However, this is not refined fine dining. There is no aromatic notes or depth of flavour. This is non-creative basic cooking; just garlic and butter tossed onto rice, meat or seafood. Our table went for the seafood set menu and meat option as this gave you a range of food to try. The quality of the seafood and meat was excellent. Succulent big scallops, tender sweet lobster, fat king prawns and a generous side of salmon. The portions are generous. The chef salad was lacklustre; too much sweet mayonnaise and the sushi starter bland. This miso soup lacked miso paste and tasted more of chicken stock.DrinkThe beer and prosecco was nicely chilled and at reasonable prices.Entertainment.The chef was great fun, getting customers to join in juggling eggs, flipping shells into the bin and making jokes and flambé-ing food. However, while this is a great for parties and kids, it is rubbish if you want a romantic dinner for two or a girls catch up! I agree with a previous review, this is basic cooking at the cost of entertainment. It is also quite an animated restaurant with lots of screaming and whoops.Would I return?Yes but not for a while. It is value for money and the seafood quality good, but the lack of different flavours and grumpy head waitress mean I will prioritise other establishments over this one.
