5 Best Japanese Restaurants near Hewitt

“Texas heat calls for eating light. J Petal & Poke is just the place to go. Went today for the first time. Ordered a bowl with salmon, shrimp, and chicken on brown rice. Lots of great toppings, like mango and purple cabbage. Sesame and ginger sauce brought it all together. Staff were super friendly and helpful. I’ll be back and you should give it a try. You can thank me later.“

“We always look forward to our visits here, even though we only manage to come every now and then. The excitement in our kids' eyes is truly priceless, and it's wonderful to see them having so much fun. This place has become a special outing for our family, filled with laughter and joy. Without a doubt, our favorite reason for coming here is the hibachi. The delicious flavors and the entertaining chefs preparing the food right in front of us make for an unforgettable experience every time.

Kid-friendliness: The chefs and staff are super sweet and friendly with the kids! They provide booster seats and high chairs, making things easier for moms. Our little ones happily share a kids' plate because it's so generous in size!“

Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp nearby to the restaurant.“

“The most delicious Kimchi Bokkbeumbap fried rice and sushi rolls in town! They have Mega rolls that are as big as your forearm dang near. Staff is very kind when they drop off your food at the table! I liked that ordering at the register used to give the staff and you a chance to interact and ask any questions without having to chase someone down that's busy clearing tables. Now that there is a self-ordering station at the entrance it kind of feels more fast food like. They probably added this self-pay kiosk because of covid. I feel like it's more of a negative than a positive at a restaurant like this. Also every time we eat there it looks like the owner is always at a table next to us on his
phone. While he doesn't stare at everyone he's still sits there glancing around from time to time and all the customers with a irritated look on his face that is awkward too experience every time. It just feels weird that he's always there at a table somewhere nearby every single time you go. You can even see him behind my husband in the picture I added. Surely he has a back office area he can sit at unless he's eating or at least trying to look a little bit more pleasant or happy. Because the food is so good it's probably a better overall experience to just order your food to go.“
