DID YOU KNOW?
Hibachi and teppanyaki aren’t technically the same thing. Although restaurants in the United States commonly use the word “hibachi” for the experience, the large, flat iron cooking surface used by chefs at restaurants like Koji is a teppanyaki grill. Whatever you call it, getting to watch your dinner being prepared is half the fun.
INSIDER TIP
Decide what kind of experience you want before being seated. Choose hibachi seating if you want the interactive experience of watching the chef prepare your meal in front of you. If you’re mainly craving sushi or prefer a quieter meal, ask for traditional table service instead.
