The restaurant has three very extensive full sized menus for Chinese, sushi bar, and hibachi. At the time of this review, they are understaffed and can only do hibachi performances if you make a reservation in advanced. My girlfriend and I had gone in to try their Hibachi, but when we found out about the need for a reservation we looked at the menu and decided to try their Chinese. She ordered the Mongolian Chicken with wonton soup and fried rice. I ordered the Tofu and Broccoli with mushroom soup and brown rice. The soups were kinda generic and broth-y but entirely servicable, though the mushroom soup was made with vegetable broth and thus vegetarian (which is noteworthy as most restaurants dont have a vegetarian soup). The brown rice was also rather disappointing. As for why I am giving a five star review anyway? Both the chicken and the tofu were the best cooked in any Chinese restaurant weve been to. The chicken was tender and moist, and the tofu was crispy on the outside, tender on the inside. The Mongolian sauce and the brown sauce were both top notch and both were the best sauces weve ever had in Chinese. They werent loaded down with corn syrup and starch like a lot of other Chinese restaurant sauces. The fried rice was also both our favorite fried rice weve ever had. While the side dishes are a bit lacking, the main dishes are extraordinary and we have a new favorite Chinese place.

Im very picky about my Asian food, but I make it a habit to try every new Chinese or Japanese place if one opens. Weve now been like 10 times, easy. Service is very good now and prompt without hovering. No extra chatter, refills without interrupting, and they remove appetizer, and sushi plates without a production smoothly. This is our new favorite place, hands down. We love it even more then our faves in Little Saigon/China in Atlanta. If only they had dim sum, it would be perfect. Their sushi is interesting and varied, it looks expensive for their specialty rolls, until you get them and realize they are a meal in themselves. Very elaborate and interesting, and definitely delicious. Standard sushi and rolls are available fairly cheap. Their home style Japanese dishes are wonderful. udon, yaki udon, Gyoza, salads, tempura, you name it, very good. The Hibachi (Teppanyaki) is easily the best in the surrounding area, and the chefs that we had so far were absolutely hilarious. The Chinese side has all the staples of an Americanized Chinese restaurant, plus a ton of really excellent trendy and more adventurous choices. Were going again today. :D yum.

NOTHING - the food depends on who you sit with I suppose. We came in for a Hibachi dinner. The family we sat with had a small child with a soy allergy, so everything that was to be divided up and shared was cooked for the boy first (while it kept cooking and drying out for the rest of us) before he added soy and sesame and other sauces. The portions were disproportionate (again for the boy and his family and not the rest of us). The flavors were very bland and forgettable. I came into this place with high expectations based on all of the "rave reviews" from other customers and I was disappointed in a BIG way. Will NEVER come here again. Tip for Hibachi: ask the other people you are sitting with if they have any food allergies before you decide to stay at the table! Also if the chef for your table just happens to be Winston, go to another table! He sucks at hibachi (though hes probably pretty good at Chinese cuisine but I dont know).

We had a party of twelve due to a birthday celebration. Everyone decided on the habatchi side of the restaurant. We were all seated at a two grill table while only 8 people could actually see the chef cooking at each grill we only got the one chef so the remaining party members were forced to look at the show from the chefs backside while he transfered our food over via a couple of spatulas dropping food all over the floor. The food wasnt anything to rave about either. I think the owner would be better off focusing on this place being either a Chinese place or a Japanese establishment. It was kinda like getting a ghetto Benihana experience at Benihana prices.

I have ordered sushi from here 4 times now. The first time the sushi was maybe a 6/10, the second was probably 5/10, the third was 2/10 and I couldnt eat it, but the fourth time I ate all of it and it was terrible. I had to teach myself a lesson for being so stupid, it was a fair punishment. Do not order sushi from here unless you want just average sushi, and youll only get average tasting sushi half the time. The Chinese food though is fantastic!!!

ive ordered to go hibachia twice! the first time it came with hair in my steak! the second time we ordered it was missing vegetables out of one of the steaks. the yum yum sauce was more like a soup. the food was cold when delivered, the fried rice that i had ordered was boiled and missing the egg! the guy was very rude that delivered the food. never again will i eat at a wanna be benihana. plus the steak had no flavor what so ever.

This place was not worth the money. The customer service is poor and the drivers are not very great with keeping up with their orders. I have ordered three twice from this place and both times were not pleasant. My sesame chicken was mushy and my wonton soup seemed like it had been sitting for a while because it was practically mush. I will not be recommending this place to anyone.

Im a local, originally from Florida. I havent found a better sushi roll in Newnan than Jimmys. Winston is at the front door most nights ive been there and he welcomes me with a handshake and calls me by my first name every time. That speaks volumes to me. I dont think youll be disappointed.. my fav is the rainbow roll, with a Saporo. Bon appetit.

My fiance and I have been here a couple of times. The Hibachi grill is fantastic and their chefs are entertaining. The food was teriffic! Last time we went, the server was a little slow getting our drinks and appetizers. But the manager handled it and gave us a discount. I reccommend going to anyone who loves asian food.

This place is amazing! The food is always excellent, the restaurant is clean and inviting, and the bathrooms are clean and well decorated. I love going here. The lunch menu is a great deal and it tastes so great! Im a vegetarian and this place is vegetarian friendly and accommodating! I definitely recommend.

The food was mediocre, I saw Asian chef what I got was way less than the standard. -The food seemed elementary with sauce. -My egg roll was dripping extra grease. -They had stuff floating in the water, so that was a turnoff -no body asked how the food was, lack of caring. -just not a good experience

I came to this restaurant with my girlfriend for sushi. We did not try their Chinese food menu, but their sushi was nothing special. Compared to Tomo and other comparable restaurants, they are sub standard in quality and quantity. Their Chinese food might be good, but dont come here for sushi.
