i moved to the tempe area about 2 weeks ago from socal, the mecca for asian restaurants. since moving out here, my only taste for asian food has been panda express. well, i was craving teriyaki last night but had no idea where to go so i did a search here. tokyo house got a bunch of great reviews and everyone mentioned a cool old man behind the counter so i just had to check this place out.\n\nas soon as i walked in the door, i was greeted by the old man...from across the joint, behind the counter, mind you. he was SUPER nice and SUPER funny! \n\nchecked out the menu and the selection was a bit overwhelming! they have every teriyaki dish available, and bunch of fried rice and noodle choices, and for those that like rabbit food, vegetable dishes. i was a bit surprised though to not see gyoza or pot stickers on the menu...was bummed out about that.\n\ni had a hard time deciding what to get but remembered Sarah W.'s review of the house chicken, so i went with that. i went with a large order and let me tell you; if you're hungry, you definitely will be stuffed after a large order. the dish was very tasty and delicious and was definitely overflowing with mushroom. i love mushroom! the house chicken is supposed to be spicy and although it had a little kick, it wasn't the \"spicy\" i was used to from asian joints in socal. i wish it had a bit more rice, though. either way, the dish was great! i would definitely order it again!\n\ni highly recommend this joint. you will be treated well by the cool old man behind the counter, the place is clean, the servings are generous and the price is cheap!
