Tokyo Express

Chinese Restaurant 3.1 (266)


Tokyo Express presents a dining experience that falls short in authenticity, primarily serving Chinese food under the guise of Japanese cuisine. Although some patrons enjoy the food, many express dissatisfaction with the service quality and expect more genuine Asian culinary traditions.

" I went into Tokyo Express for a quick takeout. The staff made me feel unwelcome, but the food was decent enough. The shrimp fried rice was flavorful and generous in portions, but I was hoping for a better experience overall. I might give it another go if I’m in the area, but I doubt I’ll seek it out specifically. " (*Curated Review*)

" Planned to visit this place with some friends and had high hopes. Their crab rangoon was alright, but the lady behind the counter made the experience unbearable with her attitude. Then, when our orders came, mine was incorrect! That really soured my mood about this spot. I don’t think we will be returning as a group. " (*Curated Review*)

" I've been to Tokyo Express several times, and I must say the food can be surprisingly good for a strip mall takeout place, especially if you're craving some comfort-food style Chinese dishes. The crab Rangoon is a standout! However, the service is always a bit curt. Not unfriendly exactly, but definitely not a place you’d seek out for pleasant lunch banter. I enjoy the food, but often feel put off by my interactions. " (*Curated Review*)

" On my last visit, I had the teriyaki chicken and a side of fried rice. While the chicken tasted decent, the rice was dry and unappetizing. However, the service was the real issue I had! The woman taking orders was rude and dismissive, which left a sour taste in my mouth. Unfortunately, I don’t think I will be going back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, I had an average experience at Tokyo Express. The food was decent, but the service was very lacking. The woman at the counter has no clue how to interact with customers. I wouldn’t go back in a hurry. " (*Curated Review*)

" We tried Tokyo Express since it’s nearby and it turned out to be just fine. The food had okay flavors, but the lady behind the counter had a stony expression throughout my order. I felt rushed and unwelcome, which really diffused any excitement I had. I don’t know if I’d recommend it to a friend, maybe for the convenience if you don't care about service. " (*Curated Review*)

" Great portions and pretty decent flavors of the chicken lo mein and crab rangoon, but I just can’t get over how unfriendly the woman at the register was! This was a takeaway order and I just felt very unwelcome. I’d still consider ordering again as food-wise, it’s not horrible. Hoping next time for friendlier service. " (*Curated Review*)
