Hidden gem with delicious food located inside a semi-abandoned mall. Whenever I’m in town for work, I stay nearby and often pick up their buffet style take-out for supper. The mixed vegetables are my favorite and the various chicken options I’ve had have always been tasty. I usually get the 1 meat + 2 side combo with an additional side and have enough food for at least 2 meals. The food is served hot and always tastes fresh during the times I’ve visited, usually weekdays after work or during lunchtime. All the staff is polite and personable and the older well-dressed lady is always so sweet and complimentary, even with a slight language barrier.
Because there is almost nothing else on that back side of the mall, there is no traffic and plenty of close parking so I am in and out in 5 minutes.
Why eat ultra-processed fast food when you can have nice-sized portions of better food served quickly and for a good price while also supporting a small local business? Ignore the shady bando-looking mall surroundings and don’t miss out on Tokyo Express!
(Note: I always get the buffet to go so I cannot comment on ordering off the menu or doing a call-in order.)

The cashier and server in the mall were pretty nice. The food was regular. A little greasy but not bad.

I went there today to try the food since I wanted to get some Chinese food and I haven’t been to north lake mall in a long time.
When I entered the lady in front waved at us to go to her. She is a very nice lady, patient and overall great customer service.
All the food was fresh, hot, and tasty. The portions and price of the food were very good too. I got Mongolian chicken which was very good, fried rice and greens beans as well which were also very good. She let me try the peach drink which was very refreshing and good.
I recommend if you’re in the area for some good Chinese food, please come support and try it!

Super friendly nice lady.
We were able to try all the dishes because we didn't know what we wanted to eat at first.
Everything was freshly prepared and tasted great too.
The prices are very fair. We would definitely come again.
Thank you very much.

Although Northlake Mall is practically dead the food court is still surviving. Tokyo Express being one of the places that's still standing. Their food is good and flavor has been consistent for YEEEEARS. They will let you sample the food before buying, too. Portions are a good size.
Nice! Big portions. Free samples. Fresh hot food. Vegetarian options. Friendly service! Beautiful food court lots of sunlight. Will be back!
Vegetarian options: We asked about vegetarian options and were kindly accommodated.

Excellent service, very kind employees. Food was being prepared fresh despite how slow the mall itself is. Cook brought out fresh meats every few minutes. They even cooked my food to order. Don’t live near here but definitely coming back!

Last man standing 8-) The food here is fresh, nutritious and delicious.. Have been eating here for more than two decades. Let's make sure they stay in business.
