Support this local mom and pop shop, me and my Family of 5 absolutely love it. We fell in love with the food that is all made fresh as you order. They got a variety of options between Chinese food, and Japanese food. Not only did we fall in love with the food we fell in Love with the staff.They are the most kindest people ever! They always make everybody that comes through that door, feel welcome. Remember to have patience as they are a mom and pop business making fresh food.

Very kind staff. Clean and quiet! It was 10 percent off all menu items on the Wednesday evening I visited.
Usually get their Sushi because it's such a great value. I love thier California and shrimp tempura rolls (they are big and fresh). The owner is very friendly and service-oriented. They also do Chinese food and I decided to try the owner's recommendation of dynamite shrimp. It is truly one of the best shrimp dishes I've ever had. The flavor is unbelievably good and I can't quite put my finger on the magic ingredients, but it blew my mind. Anyway, I look forward to trying more of their Chinese dishes along with continuing to get my usual sushi.

I think they recently expanded their hours, so I have finally been able to try them. The teriyaki is bomb! The sushi is decent for the price point. 100% recommend the bento box special. The service is absolutely the friendliest in town! Nice to have a decent food spot on Mission Ave!

Two stars because the gentleman who helped me was very kind. But seriously this was some of the worst food I've ever had. Ordered a Togo beno box and the chicken was literal jerky. I had no idea you could over cook chicken into leather. I'm blown away by how dry and leathery the chicken was. That chicken had to been waiting for me for a week. It tasted so old. The tempura was so overwhelmed by batter alot of it was still raw inside. The California roll tasted like an Albertsons roll that was 2 days old. The cucumber salad was limp and soft like fruit chews it was so off putting. The only thing that was really edible was the rice. I paid 11 dollars to not have anything on my plate be remotely edible. It was hands down the worst beno box I've ever had. Will not be coming back I don't care how nice the guy is.... 🤢
Very, very amazing customer service. I believe the man helping us is the new owner, and he couldn't have been more pleasant. My husband and I hadn't even tried the food yet and had decided to come back just on his friendliness alone. We decided on the Japanese menu (they offer Chinese as well, which we will be trying next visit) and found the food was delicious, and very well priced! We will definitely be back and highly recommend you visit. Especially if you enjoy supporting local mom and pops.

Tokyo Express is the best bang for your buck. Not only well priced, but the food is great and portions are big. The owners are some of the nicest people you will meet. I will definitely support this establishment.

Wildly underrated place, the chicken was so crispy and crunchy, the Chow mien had the perfect amount of chewablity and the fried rice was absolutely perfect. The portion sizes were huge, you could easy eat for 4 here. A truly hidden gem here. If you want Chinese or Japanese food this is the place for it. The wait staff was extremely friendly and nice, always checking up to make sure everything was okay. And even packed the leftovers we had and walk us out. Absolutely stellar.

Service was amazing, food came out fast. Easily feeds a family of 4.
This place was a 10 upon walking in. Super Friendly and welcoming staff and great lunch specials. Portion sizes are opulent and food quality is superb. I happened upon this place, and will be a frequent patron. I highly recommend the Caterpillar roll.

This place is easy to overlook but it's fantastic. The staff are very nice and the food is fresh and delicious! I stopped in just to pass the time and was pleasantly surprised. I'd definitely go again.
Super clean place! Good food and great prices! They even gave me a 10% discount on top. The man there, owner maybe, even helped get the door for me! Will definitely be back to try other items!
Why did they open this place. Poor interior, bad food, cheap and low quality, they didn't even try...
🙁
