After driving 5 hours, I pulled up to find they’re only doing takeout orders. Last thing I want to do is wait in my car and eat in my car after being in my car for 5hrs.I’ll probably just go to the Birmingham location from now on.

If I could give zero stars I would. This was some of the worst over priced food I have ever had. Had the teriyaki chicken and teriyaki steak. The chicken was so dry and the fried rice tasted worst than rice from a box. The shrimp sauce had a horrible taste and ruined the rest of the food. I took 4 bites hoping it would get better but it just got worse and had to through it away. $30 down the drain. There are way better options in the area.

Shono’s always comes through with delicious food!!! We’ve been eating it for years and oh my goodness that salad dressing is amazing!

I don't go to other people's towns and do this: But people need to know so they don't get fooled like I did-- This is the worst $30 I have ever spent. I ordered a hibachi chicken and steak. Neither of the meats had any flavor... at all. The fried rice had shredded cabbage in it for some reason? This ruined the flavor there. And the shrimp sauce couldn't save it, because it tasted like mayonnaise mixed with dijon mustard and ginger. I went downstairs to the hotel bar at the Holiday Inn and had a better, cheaper meal.... at the Holiday Inn. Need I say more?

Best restaurant in Knoxville. Hands down. Eddies special is delicious. The egg rolls are to die for. Don't walk, run to this place!!

Excellent - Eddie special came with a salad, dressing and two shrimp sauce containers. Good portions and good price.

This place used to be good. The dining room has not reopened since COVID. Take out is not as good as fresh from here.

Delicious Knoxville staple. I recommend it highly. The Eddie Special and homemade ginger ale are delicious. It’s takeout right now, so if you’re passing through town, call ahead and go check out a local park. This has been a favorite for years.

Still stuck in covidicity. Too bad. Food used to be great, now its a level 4 containment take out only, still!. Just close if you are that craze.Food was ok, nothing like it used to be flavor wise. Not going back, will miss that eddy special.

I ordered a chicken teriyaki bowl, but regretted it… The chicken was flavorless and the rice felt a bit undercook… Total was $7.59 but I would’ve rather pay extra somewhere else if I would’ve known the food was going to be bad

The food is unseasoned and dry... I got the chicken teriyaki bowl and regretted coming here... Would not recommend

I've been coming here for over 20 years. It's the most underrated place for hibachi in Knoxville. A hidden gem.

Please update your website to NO dine in, take out only. Drove 45 minutes to eat here love the food but eating it hot makes a difference not 45 minutes later.

Can't dine in and didn't have scallops other than that I'd say below average
