Great for a quick filling meal. I had the chicken udon entree and cheese fries. The chicken was completely unseasoned so I had to add a lot of sauce. But the fries were amazing.

Pretty good/tasty and fast. I would recommend it and plan to go back. The pork belly was better than the beef but overall good.

And oh Really Cool. Each table has a tablet for ordering food. You can assemble the dishes, add or remove items from the dishes. Then the dishes arrive in a boiling pan and it cooks right in front of your eyes. Beyond that, the service was excellent, the waitress explained to us how it works and was available for any request. And most importantly, the food is delicious and not expensive.

The curry is worst in class. The katsu is INCREDIBLY dry, and the sauce taste very....unauthentic. very off.Cheese fries were great though.One of those places that you just have to be very careful what you order.

This is my first time coming here. A good friend of mine was so excited to take me here as she had nothing but good things to say about it. And she did not disappoint. The service was amazing! Very quick! The food was great! I had the beef garlic and pepper. We also had a side of the corn and cheese! No excuse for it being cold.. bc the name of the restaurant says it. The food comes out on a hot plate sizzling! Will def come here again!

My son was in the mood for steak fir our lunch date and we decided to try this place- it was absolutely delicious and at a great price. My son ordered the beef pepper rice and I the pork belly. It comes to your table on a sizzling platter raw with some rice and veggies in the middle. From there you turn it over until cooked and then start mixing in the butter, veg and rice. At your table are a garlic soy, teriyaki and spicy miso sauce putting you in the drivers seat as chef of your very own lunch adventure. We almost only ordered one entree to share and boy am I glad we didn't do that. We both finished our meal reveling in every delicious bite. We can't wait to bring the whole family here.

Located in Mountain View, parking is plentiful and easy to find. The surrounding area is nice. The interior is quiet and there are tablets at every table where you can order your food.Curry Beef Rice Cheese (4/5): the meat was tender. I liked how I was able to customize the flavor because the dish came unseasoned. There was quite a bit of butter though and made the rice soggy.Tap to pay is accepted. Overall Sizzling Lunch is a great place. The food is yummy and the ambiance is quiet.

Good foodGood service considering 1 waitressVery casual dining with a variety of customers from college kids to families Came on Friday around noon and was busy but had a few open tables, we (5) were seated right away. Order from kiosk. 1 waitress working but she was hustling back & forth with food. The kitchen staff was busy prepping. Sides came out first then rice plates. Would totally order the cheese fries again... a bit on the sweet side but still yummy. Chicken karaage is good too but nothing special. If the 3 rice plates, they're all good but I think I like the garlic beef & pork the best. Add salt & pepper to taste.

Takoyaki was amazing...soft and crunchy and tasty but my Garlic pepper rice with salmon and egg was kind of average. I had to add every condiment available on the table - Salt, Pepper, Chilli flakes, Garlic soy sauce, Teriyaki sauce...plus ask for some extra Sriracha sauce on the side...and only then did my food had some taste! I had high hopes from this place and I really really wanted to like the concept but the food kind of disappointed me. Great and fast service. Everything can be ordered from the kiosk and it's super fast! Overall, fresh and fast food but lacks flavor.
We had a great lunch, so yummy and fresh foods. We love the taste so much especially their garlic rice very recommendable to all of you guys who wants to try a japanese food that’s really satisfied your cravings, so come and dine in.

This Sizzling Lunch is in the Blossom Valley Plaza. They have plenty of parking here and it was not as busy as their other locations. The food took awhile, despite it not being that busy and the fact that the food is supposed to cook on your individual sizzling plate.I ordered their beef pepper rice and cheese french fries. I felt like the food was okay, and was comparable to their other locations. The cheese french fries was decent - the cheese kind of hardened a bit by the time I got it.

Our server, Kelvin, was very friendly and greeted us to our table right away. He showed us the self-operating ordering tablet system that the business uses and recommended popular dishes including the two we got: Garlic Beef Pepper Rice and Curry Beef Udon! We got Takoyaki as our appetizer and loved the crisp exterior combined with the interior's melt-in-your-mouth octopus filling. The main dishes' serving size was very generous and filled us both up. More on the main courses, the curry beef udon had enough curry powder on it to give it a nice mild curry flavor and the Garlic beef pepper rice was robust with savory tang.

I love their cheese fries. It's not just fries and cheesey, they add this really tasty sauce in it too!!!!Cheese corn was super good too, but I think I like the cheese fries more.I got too carried away from those dishes, I forgot to take a picture of my actual pepper rice LOL.I got the combo, I think it really worth the price to get it. I can prob eat 3-4 meals with it. The combo also comes with a misl soup.The teriyaki sauce and garlic soy sauce are amazing!!! Make sure you add those into your sizzling pepper rice!!!I think the best value is probably get one of the combo rice, and add a lot more sauces that is needed, and then bring it home, diluted with more white rice. Because I accidentally add too much sauces and that's what I found out I can eat prob 4 meals with it.

We wanted a steak and rice for dinner and this $$ place popped up in between $$$ and $$$$ and was great. You order via ipad on the table. Various choices of meats, side orders and rice or udon noodle. Out comes your order on a sizzling platter. Now the fun part happens. Melt the butter, add the rice to the grill to get a crunchy rice. The amount of heat you have on your steak determines its cookedness (rare, medium, well, etc.). There are yum sauces to try to tweak the flavors you like in a steak. They also have shrimp or salmon (a favorite next to steak). Next time we may try pork belly. They have a sugar cane drink and the strawberry one was pretty tasty. Service is nice and efficient.
