HIBACHI EXPRESS – Japanese
Tucked into the North Socrum Loop Road plaza in north Lakeland, this Japanese carryout runs on volume and speed. The grill handles the heavy lifting, hibachi chicken and steak, hibachi steak and salmon, chicken fried rice, combo noodles, while the sushi side sends out rolls like the Red Dragon. It is counter service and carryout, priced for a weeknight rather than an occasion. Order ahead, park close, and be eating within minutes.
