Teppanyaki Restaurants near Pasadena, CA

“Riquísima la comida y muy buena atención y servicio 100% 👍🏻“

“I was invited to this restaurant that is inside of Level 8 in DTLA.

It’s a nice place. It’s an experience for sure.

It was crowded! It was a Saturday night; after all.

Courteous staff greeting. Pleasant servers.

Crispy and cold champagne. Stiff cocktails.

Overall good food; the beet salad WOW!

It did seem a little unorganized all together and all around.

First course was a salad and it took almost 30 minutes to come out. I finally asked the server who was a darling: (Dionne) Are you short staffed?

She replied; “no we’re not short staffed, it’s coming.”

After the salad it all seemed to have fallen into place.

A magician came to our table and he was somewhat funny. He definitely made the wait for food seem shorter as he entertained us with his cards.

I had a good time. Too crowded for me. Too loud, too. I’ve never been to a restaurant for dinner this crowded and this loud.

My date and I walked next door (literally) to Wanderlust and the live band was good. A Dj came after and was good, too. We had a table but our server came once and never again. Frankly; Wanderlust seemed over capacity.

We left early because it was too packed and couldn’t get a second round of cocktails at our table.

There was a lot of people standing in front of our table and in particular two very tall men in their grey, sweat pants and sweat shirt, sets.

Where did the dress code go? It’s L. A and it’s a Saturday night people! Cmon…..

I recommend experiencing Maison Kasai at least once.

Again, for me, the beet salad was the MVP of the night.

Hope you’re all enjoying your summer……“

“Amazing poke bowl (repeat order) with fresh salmon and/or tuna, avocado, seaweed salad, kani salad, cucumbers, ginger and wasabi on sushi rice- like a monstrous sushi roll! The lady taking the counter orders is cheery, friendly and has a good time remembering the orders of regular customers :) While the ambiance is bare bones for dine-in, the food and service is really what you come for.“

“Good food, what one would expect. However, the self-kiosk automatically selected an 18% gratiuity for me, which I took issue with. Had the machine asked, "would you like to leave a gratuity for our hard-working staff?" I would've happily done so. However, the automatic selection is devious, at least in my opinion.“

“My wife and I were around El Monte and we stumble across this gem on door dash. Food was amazing full of flavor and the steak was so good cook to perfection. You have to try to special green sauce and garlic butter it is yet to die for!! Quality of the meat was A1!! I definitely will be back“

“the food never disappoints! and it just makes you want more.“

“Mori Teppan Grill is one of those mom-and-pop gems you just have to experience. The walls are covered in photos and history, with legends like Muhammad Ali among them.

What makes it truly special is Mori himself…he greets almost everyone personally, and his care for the food and customer experience hasn’t changed over the years. The food quality is consistently excellent and the atmosphere is really welcoming. 5/5.“

“Amazing place for enjoying with family and friends.. food is just awesome!!! Exceptional service.“
