teppanya

we had a very good dining experience that the whole family enjoyed. we ordered starter set good for 6 pax. the price is worth the meal. we left therestaurantwith a full tummy and a full smile.

i chanced upon thisrestaurantat a friend's post in a social networking site. we were in evia so i asked for details and voila, hello teppanya. boy, were we in a pleasant surprise. this has to be the best steak in the south for me. ordered the usda prime ribeye, medium rare. they cooked the steak in front of us and it was quite a show. apparently, the best is yet to come.

the steak was cooked to perfection, flambe style. one bite and i was already hooked. try it with wasabe, salt and the craftly designed pepper powder and you'll be transported to gastronomic heaven. the garlic flakes was a great addition as added flavor and variety.

my family had their own orders but i was simply mesmerized with my own plate. hahahaha. and oh, each and every dish we ordered were delish! all of us left with fully satisfied bellies and ear to ear smiles.

customer service was top notch. each and every staff there greeted us with a smile and were very attentive. no need to call the attention to the waiters to fill our glasses with ice water or answer to any inquiry. it had a friendly family atmosphere and we felt completely at home. kudos to the management and staff for a job excellently done.

this is now my favorite steak restaurant. see you again and again and again and again, etc. etc. etc.

my love for japanese food is never ending and thisrestauranthas met my expectation. their salmon roll is very tender. taking a piece of it exudes great flavors already. the cucumber in it also helped balance the flavor.

diners are seated around the chef's station. you'll surely won't get bored while waiting for your food to be served as the chef cooks the food (selected menu only) and does tricks at the same time. cozy ambiance is a plus. our overall experience from thisrestaurantis amazing even though we stayed only for a short time. will definitely come back to try other menu :)

i've been eating at teppanya for a while now, but my experience today is where i really felt the need to write a review. during my long stay in the waiting area, there was a couple in front of me that were consistently showing symptoms of covid-19. they were coughing continuously. so we informed the staff of the matter that maybe they shouldn't let them dine within therestaurantbecause they are clearly showing symptoms of covid-19. the waitress noted our concern, but to my surprise the couple were still allowed inside and continued coughing even without a mask. we spoke to another waiter and even the chef about the concern, and all they could say was sorry that they could not discriminate. this is not a matter of discrimination. this is a matter of public safety and health. restaurants are held to a high standard when it comes to public health which is why it was a surprise that they continued to let them in. the manager reasoned that they didn't have fever and had vaccination cards, but regardless of those requirements, a person can still carry covid-19 and fever is not the only symptom of covid-19. they could have politely requested that the couple not dine-in or even just offer them service in one of their private rooms on the second floor, but no, they chose to endanger the lives of the people, especially the children that were there this night. i'm very disappointed in teppanya and their total disregard for safety protocol. sad to say that i am never eating there again.

the food was amazing, we had a fantastic chef who was entertaining and very good at what he cooked, would recommend thisrestaurantif you are wanting to impress and have an entertaining meal

dining at teppanya is much more than an exercise in the fulfillment of the basic human need of nourishment, it is the state of getting entertained while thoroughly getting satisfied with that nourishment. teppanya is what happens when nobu and vince mcmahon decide to have a love child. it is a multi sensory experience, that brings together the flavor of the food, the blaze of the flame rising from the griddle and the clank of the spatula as it meets the hot griddle, these bits of sensory information sums up into this unique culinary novelty experience.

i was fortunate to experience this myself when i got invited to dine at teppanya. being that this is arestaurantreview i will admit that i found it extremely difficult to rank this dishes that i have tasted and come up with a short list, so here goes nothing:

1.) wagyu roll aburri with gold - yes, this has edible gold in it, as if wagyu beef weren’t expensive enough. this roll is what fine japanese cuisine is all about, straight to the point yet incredibly indulgent, the wagyu and japanese rice just melts in a goo of umami in your mouth.

2.) boston lobster tail teppanya - bathed in dashi bisque, which brought out hints of the sea out of the tender lobster flesh, this is lobster jacked up by its own steroids (without the unintended side effects). its like the sea gushing inside your mouth.

3.) brazilian tenderloin - grilled medium rare, the juicy and tender meat is best consumed with a simple dash of salt and pepper.

4.) a5 wagyu - i don’t think i need to explain further why this sits at the top of my list. one bite of the highly marbled meat is enough to hi-jack your senses for a few seconds.

today i’m blessed to be able to check out thisrestaurantin evia called teppanya! it’s at the second floor of the mall, together with the rest of the restaurants like friday’s, mama lous, etc. it was so far away from my place because i’m from mandaluyong, but it was absolutely worth the travel!

this japaneserestaurantserve variety of dishes; from yummy appetizers, sushi, salad, soup, ramen to a5 wagyu, lobsters, oyster and even korean dishes.

you can also enjoy premium set meals for that wonderful experience of seeing how they cook the food on a teppan, the metal griddle.

aside from the warm greeting from the staffs, the place looks warm and so inviting. the smell of the fresh ingredients being cooked on a metal plate made me more hungry and felt so lucky to be in this fabulous restaurant.

the food:

squid nigiri 4/5
the fusion of balanced flavors of squid, wasabi and other spices made this appetizer a awesome starter.

wagyu aburi with gold 5/5
hmmm sounds amazing right? knowing that there's gold on your food is something different from your everyday life. the flamed wagyu strip is tender and juicy thus making it perfect with the other ingredients.

marinated gindara 4/5
white fish fillet marinated with white miso. cooked on metal plate and covered for some time for that smoky flavor. drizzle with some lemon and its perfect.

boston lobster teppan 4/5
with dashi bisque that added more flavor to the soft lobster meat. together with shiitake mushroom and some veggies this luxurious dish is a must try.

wagyu bits fried rice 4/5
this fried rice is something to look forward to, with spices and wagyu bits it can already be consumed alone.

brazillian tenderloin 5/5
cooked medium rare on a metal plate, this tender and juicy meat gave me a wow factor; together with some sauce or just that salt and pepper dry dip makes this meat so awesome.

wagyu a5 5/5
like the brazillian tenderloin, this meat is the premium amongst the premium. the meat especially the fat melts in your mouth; together with the fried garlic, salt and pepper tasting this was an amazing food experience!

banana flambe 4/5
this dessert is of course made of banana with vanilla ice cream which is flamed and then drizzles with chocolate syrup and some more sweet toppings for a more enjoyable dessert experience.

one of the places that i've wanted to eat at in evia is teppanya. it took a couple of years but i finally got to try it out last week with m.

teppanya has been in evia since it opened a couple of years ago. this proves that teppanya has a strong following who patronizes them. for me, that is always a good indication that arestaurantis good.

now we were lucky enough to have the chef cook us something that was off the menu such as this sushi that was made of black rice with cuttlefish. what surprised me the most about this was that it actually had wasabi in the middle which actually complemented the entire thing.

i normally hate wasabi but with this dish, it was heaven!

this was the wagyu roll. i'm not sure if i got the name right because i was too busy savoring the taste of the meat and the tenderness of it. even my mom will approve of this dish and that's high praise when it comes from her.

their fried rice was also really good ... good in a way that i could have eaten 2 big bowls all by myself.

now this dish was definitely something that i have not seen presented this way. this boston lobster tail with dashi was actually quite a surprise. i think that it may be the dashi sauce but it definitely delivered a kick.

as for the brazilian tenderloin, i had mine medium well and i just loved every single one of it. it was tender, tasty, and had absolutely no blood.

m and i enjoyed this lunch. initially i thought that i wouldn't be full but i went home with a smile on my face because i was so full. it is definitely worth a visit.

the thing that i loved most was the price was not outrageous. it's not cheap but you are also not being held at gunpoint when it comes to paying the bill. overall, i'd definitely recommend teppanya for families celebrating something and couples who may want to splurge from time to time.

dining out continues to evolve with time. today, it has become a full-on activity, more than just a necessity. teppanya delivers a unique experience to its customers, with an interactive, on the spot teppanyaki show.

this japaneserestaurantgoes beyond just cooking your food; they also give you entertainment and some trivia tidbits on your orders.

i was invited here a couple of days ago with an intimate late lunch with other zomato users. it was far from home but well worth my time as i enjoyed every dish teppanya offered us.

we started with aburi or flamed-seared sushi. it’s glazing your fish or meats before they are served to you. i loved the wagyu and squid versions, fresh and of high quality.

next was a seafood duo plate of gindara (cod fish) and imported boston lobster tail. the former was a melt in your mouth sensation, wishing i had more of that. the lobsters were as impressive, delicious in every bite.

the last set was most memorable for all of us! our group got two teppanya premium slices of meat. first was chunky yet still very tender, brazilian tenderloin. the second was extra premium, really juicy, a5 wagyu steak (200 grams at php 2,988). it was so savory with a seasoning combination of butter, soy, and pepper.

the dessert marked a beautiful ending to our visit to teppanya. banana flambe at php 198 only is a must order. it’s a sweet treat that comes with flames and wonders.

if you’re near the north, this brand has a store as well in sm north edsa. i’ll be likely to go back to that location instead since it’s nearer to me. see you there?

love this restaurant! ate here twice this month. food was great. i got the 5 premium starter set (grilled eggplant with bonito flakes, usuyaki beef, miso soup, gohan and banana flambé with tempura flakes), the angus prime ribeye (medium rare...chef got this on point!👌🏻), foie gras with apple reduction sauce, chicken teriyaki, nigiri platter, green dragon roll and salmon bristol roll. everything was delish! the place is packed during weekends, so better have a reservation. coz we waited for 2 hours to be seated 😐 waiting time aside, this is a greatrestaurantthat’s why i still gave it 5stars 😊 also, we got a huge discount thanks to zomato gold which is so awesome!!!

quality of the food was great! ramen was tasty. we ordered the gyudon and katsudon and the gyudon was definitely a winner. we highly recommend this japaneserestaurantin evia and we will definitely come back.

i was very unassuming walking into therestaurantwhich has very nice interiors, the private rooms were posh and really elegant. the private chef inthe tepanyaki table started cooking and one by one like magic the dishes started to come. my favorites were the marbled steak, the giant oysters, the salted saeabass, and the assorted sushi

this is definitely one for the books. i would definitely recommend thisrestaurantto family and friends and would really bring my family here to dine.

teppanya is the only one in the south that serves premium wagyu beef located in evia mall alabang.

from the outside, you may think that it’s just a typical japaneserestaurantcause of its small facade with a big signage. i was surprised when i stepped inside cause they offer private dining area that aesthetically designed based ofcourse on a japanese theme.

about the food, first served on the table was the nigiri sushi, freshly sliced seafood arranged beautifully. it’s very savory and tasted fresh. i could have eaten five servings of it 😋. we also had emperor set good for six persons which include:

six premium five course starter set
300 grams a3 wagyu beef
6 pieces salt crust oyster
450grams sea bass
6 pieces imported scallops with foie gras
3 pieces king prawns

it’s my first time to eat foie gras and it tastes surprisingly good. at first, i was hesitant to try it cause it looked like the most disgusting thing ever but sometimes you have to trust the chef. everything was oh so delicious.
for those who are looking for something filling and satisfying to share with, you may have rice bowl. they also serve korean rice topped with veggies but i recommend to try chahan.

you can really taste the high quality of their food.
in fact, i think this is the best japneserestauranti’ve had. will definitely recommend this to friends and relatives.

big thank you to the chef for the amazing food!

oooh thank you teppanya for making my birthday so special. we had the pleasure of having chef alvin cook for us during our stay. we enjoyed his company and showmanship. he kept the atmosphere fun and made jokes which made the whole experience a notch higher. we ordered a number of teppanyaki dishes which kept chef alvin busy cooking. we tried the rib eye, bacon cut pork, chicken thigh fillet, white shrimps and tuna. all paired with vegetables and fried rice. we ordered the shrimp tempura which is the least favorite and california roll. we were a group of four and we had therestaurantall to ourselves which made it more intimate.
