Experience Through Their Eyes

I'm convinced Tokyo Diner is actually a front for a culinary witness protection program because food this good shouldn't be legal in Granite. The staff treated my kids so well I almost left them there, and the service was so fast I'm pretty sure our waiter can teleport. Everything was hot, delicious, and 100% correct--which is a miracle because I usually can't even get my own name right. Five stars for the vibe, the flavors, and the fact that I didn't have to do dishes

This place is near my office and I usually go there almost every week. The favorite dish from here for me is Teriyaki Salmon served with Broccoli and sweet carrots. The shrimp sauce that is provided is also very good. I have tried the rolls and they are also great!

What a wonderful place to eat sushi. Our first time here visiting. It's neat how the conveyor belt brings you sushi to your table! Price is the extremely fair considering how much food you may eat. Plus you can order from kitchen under the same price.

Food is always good and the waitress could be a little more prompt but it was still okay. They were not busy on this day.

Awesome place, sushi is very good. Didn't try their other plates. Service was great. Will stop by again. Some people saying that they are slow, you guys have to understand that they have to make whatever everyone desires so that takes some time. If you dont believe, try at home.
