Been wanting to try this place for a while now and was so happy/excited to finally get the chance to! First of all, the interior design is so cute and homey - especially the booth seatings. Highly recommend for a cute first date!! You order off of a QR code and pay directly on it which makes things super convenient. Food comes pretty much a few mins after you send the order, really fast service! The food.. THE FOOD!!!!! We ordered all the "highly recommended" dishes off the menu since it was our first time. The karaage was honestly one of the best karaage I've had in a while, it wasn't oily or extremely crunchy like most - it was the right amount of crisp and fried. The dipping sauce was also not overly mayo-y which was a plus. Having the karaage first, I knew the katsu would be amazing and it WAS!!!! Oh boy, the katsu curry was so delicious this is now my go to for katsu!! My mouth is watering thinking about it. The sushi was priced just right and the salmon tasted so buttery and good. Will definitely be back!! Love love love this place!! I can't wait to be back to try their other dishes.
This s one of my favourite restaurant! There's plenty of choices from ramen to donburi to Izakaya! It was my first time taking to go cause I'm not feeling well but still delicious! There's lots of choices here and I recommend the spicy miso. Ramen noodles are nice, al dente and slight bite to them! Egg is jammy but a bit cold sometimes. Chasu is delicious. Beef Udon here is good but not my favourite. I just prefer the ramen here! Service is friendly, place is clean & I love the decor!
Impressively good Teishoku, Katsu, and soba in a large, well-designed space with perfect service and an authentic experience. Some places bait you with IG worthy pictures of the ambiance, but Tokyo Shokudo was truly huge and beautiful with dedicated Japanese cubbies that felt cozy and themed with cute cartoon/anime posters with recommendations on how to eat your food. The salmon sashimi was delicious, fresh, and wonderful as an appetizer, although a little bit thick would be my only critique. The katsu curry was some of the best I've ever had, with a great kick, massive portion size, and perfect pairing. The tomato sauce like consistency of the curry was very similar to what I had in Okayama and cannot find anywhere else here. Seems to be some collaboration between Carlos Jr from Torrance/Gardena and here in Plano with the special katsu menu- very cool and highlights the authenticity of the experience here. Many Japanese locals here and the wait staff speak primarily in Japanese as well: good sign! Soba was also very good, my gf is a soba enthusiast and she spoke very highly of it. Tempura was crispy but soft and fresh on the inside. This is now our favorite Japanese restaurant in DFW and we will be back.
My family & I enjoyed the service and food here. We're thankful this spot brings traditional Japanese flavors and dishes with high quality ingredients. I personally enjoyed the little details that mirror Japan culture & dining, such as most (if not all) of the plastic, yet realistic looking, dishes showcasing in the window. It gave us an idea of how the dish would look like, & they did not disappoint! We also enjoyed how ordering and paying was simple yet efficient (which is scanning your table's QR code & following the process from there). This place is definitely worth coming back to repeatedly.
I only ever get one thing here & it's their pork tonkatsu teishoku. lowkey this place is a hidden gem. I love the interior and how it's always decorated to match the season. The food is also really good as well, and it's one of the only places I can confidently say that I finish every bit of my meal. The only thing that can be a negative for people, is the slowness of the service at times. but for me, it's kind of charming since I already am prepared for that to happen. honestly I've been here way too many times. I have a friend who has also placed much hype on their scallop nigiri. I think it was like $5. It taste good, but I'm not the type to casually spend $5 for a two piece nigiri. Also my partner said that it didn't look fresh. So I guess try it at your own risk?
I am rating this place 10/10. I ordered champion katsu curry and omggggggggg. The katsu meat/oyster were perfect, they were not overcooked and the meat was very tender and juicy. The curry is amazinggggg and taste perfect for me. The entire food is perfect with the flavor and not too over salty. Service here is friendly and you order food from the QR code on each table. You know a place is legit when the server and a lot of customers here are Japanese and speak Japanese. Def returning here next time when I am in Dallas
This place is amazeballs and has truly authentic Japanese cuisine because a) all the employees speak Japanese, b) you have those fake plastic food displays enshrined in glass cases outside, c) there are telltale Japanese instruction diagrams-artwork, d) the food is great and features menu items you simply can't find anywhere else, and e) there is a Japanese broadcast of a Dodgers game plus Pokemon playing on TV screens in the back. Their kikune noodles were fantastic as well, and they offer you free edamame. Excellent experience overall and I shall return!
This is my fourth or fifth visit at Tokyo Shokudo and I tried their Tendon for the first time and I wished I had it sooner! The Tempuras were perfectly fried and super crispy and the tendon sauce was right on point. The cold udon noodle was also really great. The noodle texture was perfect, right where I wanted it to be and together with the dipping sauce, phenomenal. My husband's karaage teikshoku was great too. Matcha shaved ice is their summer special dessert and it was so flavorful, with plenty of matcha sauce on top of milky shaved ice. Service and ambiance are always great, and I will definitely go back again!
First visit with my college students son and his American friend who just came back from Tokyo trip. We really enjoyed authentic Japanese food and services. The entrance with waxed menu presentation attracted us and make us feel like we were still in Tokyo!
Only really got sushi here plus appetizers. They have other choices on the menu like ramen, curry, and other noodle dishes but didn't get those. For appetizer got the takoyaki and grill makerel. Both were delicious. Takoyaki came as 6 balls, the batter was a bit gooey on the inside as is the usual compared to other places, and the taste was on point. The grill makerel does have bones so be careful of that, otherwise was yummy and not too salty. Got sashimi bowls (came on a bed of rice), some nigiri, and a sushi roll. Overall the sushi quality was very good, thick pieces of fish, color was deep and not pale, the texture was very soft. Everything was good and would absolutely come back.
