Tokyo Express Restaurant

I came to this location as their other locations in the city have all closed, and this is presumably the original or only place of theirs left as of April 2021. I often had the chicken udon on Mondays (the day it is a discounted special) at their Stonestown location with my late grandmother, who passed the day before I visited and wrote this review today. The cashier working today's service was personable and pleasant to interact with, and was empathetic with my story of frequenting a Tokyo Express location in the past with my grandmother. The chicken udon I usually go for on Mondays from the daily special discount was consistently good as it's always been, whether compared to at Stonestown or the Metreon, or compared to years back. Indoor dining service was offered and they assign a table after ordering, after that they bring the food to your table like the other locations. Update early 2022: After reopening on the first Monday of the new year, some of their prices have gone up a bit. In the months since I've been visiting regularly, I've noticed senior customers come and sit for traditional waiter service where they are given menus and their orders are taken at the table rather than the register, so either of these dining options are available. The staff also recognize me when I try to come on a weekly basis so I'm glad to have been recognized as a regular. My dad and one of my uncles each have a Japanese restaurant they've frequented since the 80s or 90s, and I would be happy for this restaurant to be my example of that.
