Ok now I have to give this place two stars and it's not anybody's fault, not even the chef. I had the Joe's teriyaki Chicken Bowl, spring rolls, and this salmon/tuna hybrid roll that was just lovely.
The staff was attentive and polite and professional.
The food, well.... ok
The Good
It's obviously fresh.
The quality, I guess you could say, was very high. I likes the spring rolls. Honestly nothing wrong with them. And I like the salmon/tuna roll.
The bad
Honestly it was the teriyaki bowl and not for any reason you'd assume. When I first tried it I couldn't put my finger on it. It tasted bland, or plain. It was absolutely boring. It tasted TOO clean. Sterile even. But there was nothing wrong with it all. It did taste like Panda Express but even more so.
It wasn't till the drive home that I figured it out. What makes food real good is the mixing of flavors. And example is putting salt on a steak before you cook, or waiting to put it in after just before you eat. Two totally different experience. The food at Tokyo Joe's is exactly like that. It's layered on top of each other and not actually cooked together. That's why the spring roll and the salmon/tuna roll tasted good and teriyaki bowl was boring. It's not the staff fault either. This is obviously how they are instructed to prepare this dull food. So if you want to pay high price for less the mediocre food. Look no further then here.
