Shogun Japanese Grill - Pearland

When people ask me to flex, I just pretend I work at Sho-guns. But this is unrelated. This is one of those hyper westernized all American sushi hibachi places, with all the fanfare of a suburban sanitized experience. The food tastes good, the prices are high, the key is the experience. I don't like these massive corporate chains, and I don't love this kind of sushi either. I like mine from a back alley, freshly chopped by some person that really knows it and puts their heart into it. Anyway, for the experience, I give a 3 as usual. This is one of 2 Shoguns I've been to in HTX area and it's better than the other.

The hibachi, demonstration is very entertaining and that's what made the food good. The hibachi table added a little twist to the dinner. You would need to get there early on the weekend mainly Sundays. The shrimp were big and fresh. The salmon was a nice size and well seasoned. The filet mignon melt in your mouth. It was worth the money,

I've tried this place before and wasn't impressed but tonight's experience changed my mind. They gave me a huge lemon slice for my water which was much appreciated! We started with the gyoza, it was average tbh We ordered the boat and it did not disappoint. The chefs prepared it fairly quick despite the restaurant being busy for dinner. The sashimi slices were thick and cold. The nigiri and both rolls were good too. It says this feeds 3 but the two of us had a big appetite tonight. Totally worth the because unlike other places they give you a full selection instead of loading the boat with only salmon and tuna. Our waiter was friendly and attentive so we will definitely be back

Shogun is one of two hibachi/teppanyaki/sushi spots in the Pearland area. It anchors one end of the Pearland Town Center. Their advantage is they have parking in the front as well as in the back. My family and I usually come through for atleast one birthday gathering a year. We always call ahead because we roll kind of deep and we want to make sure we have a grill to ourselves. Even when the restaurant doesn't look too busy, we always seem to have to wait to be seated. Other than that, the staff is friendly and the hibachi chefs are always a good time. I can only remember maybe one time where I have ordered a roll or something other than the hibachi. The hibachi experience is always fun. At this point, I'm sure I've seen all the showmanship and funny antics, but I enjoy it every time. The food is cooked right in front of you and always tastes the same. It's not out of this world, delicious food, but it is good. You come to places like this for the experience more than the food. Overall, my family and I always leave happy and I'm sure we will be back at some point.

I love this place.. The flavor of the Shrimp Fried Rice is really good! I wish they would bring back the chili oil seasoning.. i love that on my fried rice. Oh, the Sushi, always fresh.. my husband doesn't like raw but I was able to convince him to try it and he said it wasn't too bad lol. (that's a 5 star for him lol) I've been going to ShoGun for years and I haven't had one bad thing to say about them. They are very consistent, the servers are pleasant and willing to try to resolve any issues. It's great for a date night. They cozy booths with high backs. It feels like it's just you and yours in the room sometimes.
