Came in for dinner no wait on a Saturday. It was a self service type set up you order from an iPad from the table. It was easy to navigate and experience the menu was pretty neat. The experience alone was pretty cool. It was neat watching your food cook from your plate on the table. My kids would have loved this experience. The food was very good, they have enough sauce to customize to anyone's liking. I would totally come back. Prices are reasonable and they do charge an 18% gratuity for parties 6 and over.

My group of 4 were sat right away and the server explained how to use the iPad to order our food and how to call them if we needed anything. The service is soooo fast. It was decently busy when we went and they still managed to get everything out the window and to the table so quickly. The food is TOP TIER. We got takoyaki & dumplings, both really flavorful and the sauces were YUM. Everyone really enjoyed their entrees. They have multiple sauces & seasonings on the table that you can add on top of your meal to enhance it even more to your liking. The meat is tender, the spicy level is perfect, and the overall flavors are insane. The portions are also really great, I was able to take most of my entree home as a second meal!

Service was good, staff was attentive and helpful in explaining the process, etc. The food was great - I traveled to the area for work and this was a great find. Food is served on a hot cast iron skillet. Food in the skillet is fairly 'raw' when it comes out, which is expected since you'll be 'cooking' the food as you eat. Orders are submitted via a tablet at each table. Condiments are at the table - my favorite was terriyaki sauce.

Love the service and the food!! You order from a kiosk on the table and the food is brought to your table. Taste is delicious and it's literally sizzling! Perfect place for any occasion!

Food is a big portion for the price. I really like the self ordering at each table so you don't have to talk to anyone.

A popular joint, so make sure to add yourself on yelp waitlist. Came with a party of four, ordered off the iPad and food came out pretty quick. Ordered a garlic pepper rice with cheese corn to share. Good amount of garlic on rice. Good spot to go for lunch. Service was attentive and quick.

Great food - my go to is the udon with beef. You order on the iPad and the food comes out quickly. Restaurant was clean, but super cold. They had high chairs available for little ones. Tip: add yourself to the waitlist ahead of time. We came on a weekday night and there was an about 30 minute wait.

The food is delicioussssss! I always get the Spicy garlic Beef Pepper Rice and the Cheese Fries for the table. Both are 10/10. They don't take reservations, you have to go and check in on their iPad.

Cool little spot. Initial service was decent but the rest of the dinner was meh. The lady was very informative in the beginning but after the intro that was pretty much all we saw of the servers. One male server mainly focused on his friends next to us and no one ever asked how we were doing. Onto the food! Wayyyyyy too much garlic for me on the garlic beef rice plate. They put some white rice and beef around the rice on a hot stone plate where you add your sauces provided to you. They had a spicy sauce, teriyaki and some other soy based sauce. Cucumber Salad was just overly sauced. The soy sauce flavor on it just didn't go or wasn't what I was expecting. Starter salad was decent. Takoyaki tasted ok and nothing different from any other ones. Overall food wasn't that great in my opinion. If you don't know how to mix the flavors to your liking then you're screwed. Decent but nothing to crave here.
Looking for a delicious and very filling meal? Sizzling Lunch has so many options to satisfy your taste buds and keep you full! Staff and Service: - There is a tablet at the front to check in on the Yelp waiting list if it's busy - You can order on the tablet mounted to each table. The menu is broken into categories like appetizers, drinks, noodles, rice, etc. Food: - Garlic Beef Pepper Rice: as you can see from my photo, this was quite a large meal. Similar to bibimbap, the heated plate the food comes in cooks the meat in front of you and makes the rice crispy. When ordering you have the option to add or remove toppings like garlic butter, corn, fried crispy onions, egg, etc. - Cucumber: this appetizer consists of cucumber slices soaked in sesame oil and is tasty Miscellaneous: - Plenty of parking in a parking lot shared with the other local businesses - There are only a few larger tables - most tables are for 2 people (so definitely get there early / not during the dinner rush if you have a larger party). We had a party of 5 that arrived just before 7:00pm and waited about 30 minutes. - Very casual restaurant (you can smell the delicious aromas from outside) that is family-friendly

Favorite hot plate place. The curry beef rice with cheese is really good. You can add more seasoning and spice if you'd like. Sometimes there's a wait for a table but they give you your food pretty quick once you've ordered. The fries are good if you eat them right away.

When Pepper Lunch is too crowded, we head here to satisfy our craving. Portions are generous and I always end up taking food home. If you dare get an appetizer, I recommend the Gyoza. Something about the ones here make it to the top of our list. I definitely never have any left to take home after lol.* Garlic Pepper Rice (Spicy)* Cheese Corn* Gyoza and Miso Soup* Calamansi Sugarcane
