Hayashi Midtown - Lubbock

Eating is so good! Service was also amazing! Pretty expensive, but worth it.

The fish in the salmon roll didn't look like salmon. Not bad, but clearly not salmon (I've caught enough to know; flesh was grey, not pink/red-orange). Salads were swimming in enough dressing for 3x the greens. Lettuce was fresh and crisp, but drowning. Only one fork for salad and main entree. Disposable bamboo chopsticks. The dinners were a saving grace. Both the hibachi teriyaki beef and hibachi steak plates were very good. Beef was tender and flavorful and veggies were firm but not crunchy. Fried rice was very good too. Might've been a one-and-done for us but the hibachi plates were good enough to repeat. Update: I discovered the morning after my visit my credit card was missing. I returned to Hayashi Midtown (last place I used the card) 15 minutes prior to them opening for lunch. They let me in and returned my card which they'd secured overnight in their cash register. The card had not been used. Extremely pleased with their collective integrity. Plus a star.

Love this location! Service is always great, and the food is wonderful. I had the Habachi Steak Shrimp.

Don't get me wrong everything was pretty on point the atmosphere, the staff, the food, however the beef and rice could use a little work as in my opinion they were a little bland, but otherwise the rolls and dumpling were great. Will definitely come back to get sushi next time

Clean, with kind and quick staff and a nice assortment of Hibachi style and sushi dishes. Namely the spring rolls are really good. They're freshly prepared and delicious. Other appetizer of note is the dumplings. Absolutely delightful, not overly salty like others I've had. The regular miso soup is fresh and hot. Sushi lunch special was a nice assortment of fishes with a small California roll. Service was very good and quick. Our waiter Trevor was exceptional in his duties and gave us recommendations on the menu when we looked unsure. He made the experience even better. Very pleased. Will be back.
