“I have only been here twice, but both times, the service and food have been fantastic! The servers treat you like family! The prices are reasonable, and the menu options are plentiful. My entire family was able to find something they'd like to eat.“

“Second time coming here and was blown away again! This time I tried the Spicy Bulgogi Pork Rice Bowl which was delicious and full of flavor! My wife got the Sake Don which is similar to a Poke Bowl but way better. We also ordered a “For Your Girl” roll and that was awesome! The staff is always very helpful and willing to answer any questions you may have. Will definitely be returning because there are several other things on the menu that I want to try. And judging by my two visits so far I’m sure I will not be disappointed!“

“Shogun is a typical hibachi restaurant. The chefs put on the normal show with fire on the cooktop. Food is consistent - we don't come often but it seems pretty much the same from visit to visit. The filet and chicken is my favorite with excellent fried rice and vegetables. Lunch on weekdays is a good deal and the best time to come. If you enjoy hibachi then give Shogun a try.“
