  This place was a great experience for my birthday!
  
  Pros: the staff was energetic and friendly, and the food was amazing.
  
  Cons: was a bit pricey and the portion were smaller compared to a typical Teppan place, and they didn't have fried rice

  This was the only sit down restaurant we tried while in Epcot. It was my second time at a teppanyaki-style restaurant. I had the center seat as the birthday boy. As we walked in, we were greeted by a warm welcome. The host led us to our table and soon after our server Sakio arrived. She was so sweet and kind it immediately made us like her.
  
  We ordered a bottle of the plum wine and it was yummy. It reminded me of a rose but with more kick. We sipped as we studied the menu. We ended up picking three appetizers to share and ordering the beef and shrimp all around.
  
  Our chef came out soon after and put on a show for us. He was so comfortable with his tools and it felt like they were extensions to his body. As he cooked, he gave us a background of his training and experience. We ate and laughed as he performed.
  
  The food overall was just average, this restaurant was definitely more for the performance and experience.

  This is a sub-par hibachi experience compared to nearly all other hibachi places that I've been to. One thing that stood out the most is how much smaller the portions are than you typically get. I was able to finish all of my food which barely happens. Onto the quality of the food...
  
  Usually hibachi restaurants serve fried rice first with vegetables before you get the meat. Teppan Edo does udon noodles with spinach carrots and zucchini. The portion was so small I finished it before my beef was ready. I got the Julienne beef as my chosen meat and it was actually pretty good. It was tender. Overall, the food did not have that much flavor and I think it's because they don't use as much butter as other places. They also serve a salad beforehand with weird dressing, not the typical dressing from hibachi restaurants it almost tasted like vinegar, and they serve white rice on the side of your meal. Our cook was very upbeat and entertaining so that was a plus to the whole experience. I would probably choose a different restaurant in Epcot next time.
  
  Food: 5/10
  Service: 9/10
  Wait: 10/10 (reservation & did not have to wait)

  My husband and I absolutely loved our proteins here. As they should be, they were the highlight of the meal.
  
  I ordered the hotate, which is one of my all-time favorite seafood dishes. Having lived in northern Japan, I'm always on the lookout for scallops that compare to those abroad. Besides Teppan Edo, I've routinely been disappointed. My delight when the chef served me my golden hotate was effusive. They were nearly perfect. Maybe ten seconds away from perfection. Regardless, they were buttery and soft, and I wouldn't hesitate to order them again. A small ding is that I did get a bit of graininess from some of them. A huge bonus is that there were 9 plump scallops in the serving size. I had expected 6 and was exceedingly happy when the chef gave me 9. This is an excellent value.
  
  My husband ordered the salmon, which was the first protein to hit the teppan. That thing was cooked to perfection! It was absolutely golden and melted in the mouth. He said he'd never had a better piece of salmon.
  
  The biggest downside to the restaurant is just how insanely loud it is, even with partial walls separating the dining areas. You are really at the mercy of others' politeness. Our experience was definitely dimmed by a whole table of bachelorette party-goers screaming... SCREAMING... throughout their meal. Japanese culture is not very confrontational, but as it's Disney, it would be nice if the managers handled way-above-average (and acceptable) noise disturbances more effectively.
  
  The environment itself, with metal clashing and people talking, is loud but understandable. There's no need for people to act like safari animals in a restaurant. I had to ask our waitress to repeat herself nearly every time she spoke to me, with both of us leaning as far forward over the teppan as possible to hear each other. Just silly.
  
  Anyway, I'd say the side dishes and accompaniments were adequate; tasty but unremarkable with below average portion sizes. The proteins are what really shine here. If you're a seafood lover, definitely try the salmon or the hotate. Absolutely do not expect to have a quiet, romantic dinner here. Even without screaming patrons, it's a very boisterous environment.

  Located inside Epcot at disneyworld in the Japan section. I can only describe this as a Benihana's. Reservations are a must and we also made them 6 months prior. We ordered steak, salmon, shrimp, and waygu. The cooks prepare it in front of you with a show. Food portions kind of small and it was expensive. My waygu came out as thin slices rather than the thick pieces I'm used too. Food was good, but for the price or portion sizes it was not worth it. Waygu definitely was not worth it.  Service was excellent, food could use some work. Deserts were good, we had the green tea and mango. My favorite was the man
