Tokyo Hibachi opened today -- it is under the Orthodox hashgacha of Vaad of Metrowest. Enjoy!

Someone I know at the Vaad gave me a preview menu (and told me specifically not to circulate it),
But here is the contact info:

Tel.: 973-258-1158 • Fax: 973-258-1198

Menu is very limited, Vegtables/Chicken/Beef Teriyaki or Hibachi Style, Chicken Wings.
Some typical appetizers. No sushi.

OK, so it's in "downtown" Springfield. That's close enough for kosher keepers in Maplewood, Livingston, Millburn and even South/West Orange. Hope it's worth supporting!

Huge mistake these days not to have a web presence on opening day. It takes so little money and time too!

DO NOT RELY ON THIS INFORMATION.
I only had a mock-up menu, but according to that, yes they will open Motzei Shabbos and lunch plates were under 10, dinner plates under 15.

If anyone goes there, please let us know how it is. It would be so great to have a good restaurant there. Are there any other kosher places in Springfield?

There's a kosher bagel shop and an ice cream shop (newly kosher). There used to be a shawarma place. It closed about 3 years ago.

Anyone been there recently? How is it?

We LOVE it. If you like the Chinese food in Elizabeth and are wondering why it changed recently, it is because the old chef there is now an owner of this restaurant.
We are not the easiest family to feed- my DH eats anything, I am a veggie and my DS only eats chicken and rice and yet they remember our order and make perfect food each time.
You MUST try the spring rolls if you go- they are delicious.

You talked me into it. My husband works in Union, not far away on Morris Avenue - I'll have him bring home supper this week.

we have some favorites and some thing my DH wont touch. Stay away from the bourbon chicken and teriyaki chicken sticks.
He recommends the sweet n sour chicken and/ or general tzo's.

It's so so. Been there a few times. Food is greasy but edible.
