“If you're looking for your typical, affordable, fast Chinese takeout, this is the place. I ordered sesame chicken, chicken lo mein, and hot and sour soup. I don't normally like sesame chicken but my partner wanted it and it was 10/10. Was fried well and the sauce was very savory. Lo mein was average and the hot and sour soup was really spicy and good! It only took them 15 minutes to cook everything on a Saturday night. Will be back“

“Best crab Rangoon in town! Very picky about my Rangoon and these are so yummy! The wanton isn't greasy, plenty of Krab meat, big cup of sweet and sour in the To-go order. Good price and good portion. Lo mean was spot on also and a big portion. Will be back.“

“Amazing food, atmosphere and staff! Sushi and cocktails were phenomenal!“

“The hibachi cooking is fun. There were children at our table.“

“absolute best sushi and sashimi I've ever had“

“Why Are Yall Sleeping On The Best Habatchi in town? The sushi here is phenomenal but that filet mignon steak is out of this world. We have always gotten the very best chiefs and the staff go out of their way to make sure you have everything you need. Well worth the drive.“

“My husband and I visited Charleston to celebrate my birthday, and if I could give more than five stars, I absolutely would. Chef Masa’s newest venture is truly a must-visit. The artistic presentation and impeccable service made the evening unforgettable. Standout dishes included the Jingisukan lamb kushiyaki and Kinoko, while the crudo and beef dumplings were exceptional. The Shaka Shaka fries were a fun and unique touch, as was the apple pie—but the true highlight was the miso caramel soft serve affogato. As someone born in Japan, I felt especially grateful to experience the chef’s creations on such a special occasion!“

“Delicious food, great atmosphere and unique drink options. Highly recommend.“

“This place has an incredible variety of ramen options… beef, chicken, pork, and vegetarian.

We had the Spicy Tonkotsu Ramen, which had delicious pork broth, a whole seasoned egg, and a unique add of crispy onion and kimchi. We also had the Classic Tonkotsu Ramen which was equally great. We usually go for edamame to start with, but we went with the spicy cucumber salad. It was delicious and packed a punch.

This was our second time here, Patience was our server. She is lovely, friendly, and attentive.“

“I love hibachi and I’ve tried just about every single one in Charleston since moving here. This is by far the best one I’ve had. (Ordered through DoorDash) I got the steak with rice and it was so, so good. Both the steak and rice had such a great flavor. My favorite hibachi place now!“

“We had a great experience at Konichiwa. We ordered the Dragon Roll, Godzilla Roll, and Red Rose Roll, and all three were excellent. Everyone in our family ended up having a different favorite.

The Godzilla Roll was my favorite, the deep-fried texture and flavor were outstanding. My wife’s favorite was the Dragon Roll, while my son loved the Red Rose Roll. It had a little bit of spice for him, but he still enjoyed it.

We also ordered the New York Strip Steak Bento. It was decent, but compared to the sushi rolls, it was just okay and didn’t stand out.

For dessert, we tried the mochi ice cream, and my son liked it.

As many other reviewers have mentioned, the staff was attentive, friendly, and checked on us regularly throughout the meal.

Overall, it was a very enjoyable visit with delicious sushi, good service, and a nice atmosphere. We’d definitely come back, especially for the sushi rolls!“

“The best meal of teriyaki chicken! The carrots were delicious. Friendly staff and cook ….“

“Food is awesome! Friendly staff, local owners. We are regulars here!“

“Excellent sushi and even better service! Trey and Marshall are fantastic. Both have waited on me, and they go out of their way to be attentive and friendly. Kings Sushi has a very friendly atmosphere - very happy customer!“

“Had a wonderful experience, Aida and our server were both very attentive and thoughtful. The food was well put together and flavors were light and just right. I would love to visit again and hope to experience their Thai tea once it’s on the menu. Thanks again!“

“Food, music and alcohol. Enough said.“

“Fern, the owner was so amazing, kind and generous. The food was absolutely delicious on every level…savory, sweet, spicy - BURSTING with flavor. Go there today, you won’t regret it. Thanks Fern!“

“Bought a few different things for football Sunday. I specifically told the young lady that I had a shell fish allergy. When I got home I realized that they put shell fish in with the salmon. Disappointed that I wasn’t even able to eat what I ordered since it was out in the same box as shrimp. Not to mention, could have killed me.“

“The food here is good. For $9.99 I was able to get Singapore Chicken, and hibachi chicken, with a side of rice. The food was hot and tasted good. The Singapore Chicken was better than the teriyaki chicken.

It does take about 10 minutes for him to cook the teriyaki chicken though, so it is a bit of a wait. Overall, it's worth it.“

“Good food at great prices, friendly accommodating staff.“

“We love this place! It is the best for hibachi and teriyaki. They have yummy spring rolls. The sushi is 10/10 quality and beautiful presentation. Family atmosphere and wonderful service.

Most meals come with rice, yum yum sauce, and sweet cooked carrots. If you don’t like them, ask for no carrots. Personally, they are my favorite.“

“This place has been here since the early 2000's, it used to be called seasons of Japan and I imagine changed names, rebranded, or ownership. But I've been getting the same thing everything I go for years!! Large chicken bowl, enough said. Thanks for staying open and surviving as for some reason there's loads of Asian places that popped up next to them...I don't understand it but you have options!“

“Our favorite spit in Charleston when we visit!“

“Really good food, chill atmosphere, good portion sizes.“

“The food was decent but order was wrong. I ordered 3 sushi rolls, a seaweed salad & chicken fried rice for carry out. Instead of a seaweed salad I got a bowl with iceberg lettuce topped with avocado (house salad maybe?). Instead of the chicken fried rice I received a teriyaki chicken bowl. It all tasted good except I was disappointed in the Angry Dragon Roll I received - it has mango in it but the mango in the roll was so under ripe you couldn’t even tell what it was & it was very hard. I ordered this on a Wednesday night and it was dead inside when I picked it up. If I give them another chance I’ll definitely be checking the order before walking out with it.“

“The food is delicious and they give us a big amount each time. So much that Id need to take left overs home. The soups and salads are delicious. I dislike the hibachi room because its very dark and smokey. I wanted to move back to the main room.“

“The sushi is delicious and a great price. Not necessarily gourmet sushi but it hits the spot. My favorite rolls are the Salmon Avocado, Doge to the Moon, Shrimp Tempura and California. have had the hibachi chicken once which I would not recommend. The crab rangoons are good.“

“We ordered the hibachi steak/chicken and steak/shrimp. Both meals were delicious, cooked perfectly, and very generous portions. We have eaten at this grill several times over the years and we have enjoyed every experience. Definitely recommended and appreciated in the community!“

“I normally visit this place when I'm in town working. If you're getting the steak make sure you ask for a medium. It's always overcooked a little tough but the food is great otherwise it is edible. The prices are not bad and it's always cooked to Fresh. I just always forget to ask for it medium so therefore it won't bite me back when I try to eat it“

“Ever since the Chinese Express on Old Trolley went completely down hill Yummy Yummy has become my main place for Chinese takeout and they did not disappoint. The only issue I have is they don’t have any combo meals. You have to get a full container of rice and sesame chicken, which isn’t what someone always want to purchase“
