Japanese Restaurants in Lebanon

“Best hibachi ever!!!!!!!!“

“Sake was so helpful with making sure all our teachers got a hot and delicious meal for teacher appreciation week!!“

“Xiaos’ Hibachi was a pleasant surprise. Though the Yelp reviews are a bit rough, other websites say otherwise, and sometimes, yes, even being a Yelp Eliter, I don’t always trust the reviews on Yelp, or in particular, the ones strictly in Lebanon. Thank goodness for Google!

Xiao’s Hibachi is located on the corner of the shopping center shared with Walmart and Petsense. There’s plenty of parking.

We were greeted immediately and sat at a table. The restaurant is large but the buffet itself is very small. However, the food here is DELICIOUS. I honestly had low expectations due to the poor reviews but Xiao’s proved me wrong. All of the food was hot and cooked perfectly, the sushi was cold and surprisingly good for a buffet. When we first arrived, the food was slim pickin’s but by our second go-around, the buffet was filled to the brim and fresh.

I enjoyed all of what I had except for the butter mushrooms and the honey chicken (it was overcooked). The champagne chicken was amazing and definitely one of my favorite dishes served. I also favored their chicken on a stick, too. The egg drop and wonton soup were nice.

The service here is wonderful. Our waitress filled the cups three times before they were ever empty. Our used plates were promptly picked up, too. Our waitress was friendly and hard working.

My husband and I came in expecting a low-star experience but we were truly blown away. Xiao’s may be small but it is mighty! We will be back for sure!“
