Miyako Japanese Steakhouse

Miyako Japanese Steakhouse is a delicious Japanese cuisine in a laid back, fun atmosphere to take your family for lunch or dinner. The address of the restaurant is 4382 Baldwin Road, Suite 625, Auburn Hills, Michigan 48326. The family restaurant is located inside Great Lakes Crossing mall and the phone number to make reservations or to ask questions is 248-451-9000. The two dining options are sitting at a table with about eight people or sitting at the sushi bar. I have never ate at the sushi bar, but I hear that it's really good. The hibachi chefs will be cooking the food at your table while you watch. Sometimes you have to share a table with another family, but it's a good time talking to people besides your family and friends at dinner. The hibachi chefs are entertaining for the children and the adults. First, the server will ask you what you want to drink and then ask what everyone wants to eat for lunch or dinner. The menu includes appetizers, entrees, combination entrees, Miyako triple combination, a children menu, desserts, soft drinks or juice, Miyako specials(sushi menu), Miyako special drinks, wine, and beer. I have never tried any of the appetizers but the menu includes items such as vegetable dumplings, a sampler of the freshest raw fish, a four piece sampler of sushi of the day, fresh New York strip prepared with sauce, and lightly fried soft crab meat with Japanese tempura. Combination entrees (2 or 3 choices) include steak, chicken, shrimp, calamari, filet mignon, scallops, lobster, snow tuna, and white tuna. The combination plates let you choose two or three of those food items listed above for a lunch or dinner meal. All the combination meals come with Miyako fried rice and Miyako soup and salad. The children's menu includes food items such as Hibachi chicken, steak, shrimp, and filet mignon. The children must be ten years old and under to order off the kids menu and all the kids meals come with Miyako soup, salad, vegetables, rice, ginger sauce, and mustard sauce. The desserts that the menu contains are ice cream(green tea, red bean, or mango), Mochi ice cream, cheesecake, and Tai yaki. The sushi bar includes items such as sushi, sashimi, combination, maki sushi rolls, house special maki, spicy maki, and special maki. The beverages include coke products and many juices to choose from on the beverage section. This restaurant has domestic, imported, and Japanese beer and house, red, white, blush, and Japanese wine for alcoholic beverages. My favorite meal to get is the three combination that comes with filet mignon, shrimp, and lobster. I really like there onion soup and the dressing on the salad is really tasty too. I don't get any grilled vegetables, but I like to double the fried rice portion of the meal. The chefs like to play tricks on first timers coming to the restaurant, so they will want to come back to eat again. The first time that I went to eat dinner at Miyako's was a very fun and exciting experience. The chef asked me if I wanted soy sauce and he had a fake bottle of soy sauce that he pretended to spill on me. The chef's really like to interact with the family to keep children and adults entertained while cooking the meals and appetizers. You won't regret bringing your family or friends into Miyako Steakhouse for lunch or dinner.
