“Great place to grab snacks or food. It’s been years since I’ve traveled to Japan and it was cool seeing drinks, snacks and ramen that I was eating in Japan. I ordered some food here it was great. I ordered the Gyu Don and Mackerel Bento. Average plate is $8 great price’s. I highly recommend this place. Prices for the snack might be a little elevated but they are legit snacks from Japan. Check this spot out!“

Haven't been let down by anything we've ordered; Massaman, pad Thai, red curry, green curry, lotus fried rice with chicken, spring rolls, vegetable pho, to. Yum salad, pot stickers, hibachi entrees for the less brave. Really all good. We like spicy and medium level is great for us. Great prices. And the leftovers are amazing.“

“My first experience at Magnolias buffet was a fantastic one. I sampled about 2/3 of the items they had on the food bar and enjoyed every item that I sampled. The food was fresh, hot and enjoyable. Kelly, our table hostess, was a very sweet, efficient and charming individual. I will definitely be returning. If I could give this place more than five stars, I would. Kudos to Magnolias buffet!“

“I don’t have photos for proof because I devoured it all. Kirby-style. My husband and I busted butt all week on our new home in the area and decided to do nothing but Hibachi and video games for the day. Edo Hibachi made dreams happen. We read, and laughed, at some of the reviews and decided to proceed - but with caution. Husband placed the order and was back with our mouth-watering buffet within 30 minutes. Nothing was amiss. All of our sauces right there, right next to our chopsticks and ginger dressings. Every single one. They successfully completed the ultimate challenge that not even the local Chik-fil-a could handle. The Godzilla sushi roll was warm, delicious, and drizzled perfectly, even as a to-go. The spring rolls practically melted in our mouths. The hibachi was steaming and the rice was perfectly sticky. You won’t believe me but it’s true, there was even a cucumber in my little house salad. Everything was so fresh and the proportions were enough to sustain a whole evening of HellDivers 2. After gluttonously eating it all I hesitantly inquired about the bill for this mouth-watering, guilty indulgence and I was left Baffled it was all under $100.Thank you Edo Hibachi for making our glorious day of video games and fantastic take-out one that would put even a college dorm kid to shame. We absolutely will be returning.“

“I really like this vibe of the place. It feels like a place you would find in a bigger city like charlotte. The food was very good and service was great. It took about 10 mins to get my food ready and I think that because they cooked it fresh. When I got my food everything seems like it had just come off the grill. I got the spicy teriyaki chicken bowl and the crab Rangoon. Both tasted very good but the crab rangoons were the best I’ve ever had. Prices were pretty decent. The bowl is about $9-$15 and the Rangoon were about $4-$8 I think. You also get a good amount of food, I was full before I finished my bowl. I’ll definitely be back“

“Very good food! The only hibachi I like to eat around here! Sometimes their phone doesn’t work, so you have to come in and order and wait for your food. Other than that they have pretty good service. They switched from the bigger portions of the white sauce to smaller portions. Atmosphere is pretty good. They will modify your order perfect for you, if you’d like.“
