My friends and I frequent Ron of Japan often, and we were given an inexperienced cook/chef. I know what to expect, as well as the flow of things. I kept having to remind him of how I wanted my food prepared. He put my lobster on first, and then overcooked it. I had to remind him to take it off the grill. The vegetables were barely cooked. He used the same utensils for everything. We don’t eat chicken, but he cooked our fish at the same time he cooked the chicken for the other couple, and it was touching (cross contamination, raw meat especially fish and chicken should never touch). He even dropped a piece of the chicken on top of the fish while turning it. He also forgot to add teriyaki sauce to my steak as I requested and attempted to pour it on top after he plated it. I requested my shrimp to be cooked in garlic butter, and he forgot, so he poured butter in a bowl and gave it to me. The food didn’t have the normal Ron of Japan flavor to me. It was bland. It was my birthday and I walked out very dissatisfied. As far as service, Glenn is always a very pleasant server, and asked how was everything, but it was too many issues to name. It was a first time experience for my partner and he was not impressed. Tip, valet, and bill was $300 and I must say, it was not worth it.

Just disgusting. Way too much oil. Soup inedible. Salad hidden by goops of dressing. All the steak cooked the same, ignoring all temp requests. Slimy sauce on the shrimp hid the fact some were burned and some raw. Sad how it’s fallen.

Are overall experience was very poor. This is the 1st and last time we will be coming to this restaurant. Our waitress never came back to the table, we had to ask another waitress to ask her to come to the table for refills of drinks. The cook was very nice, however, the food was over cooked and no flavor! Lastly, we had to flag the waitress down to get our check. There was only 2 people in our party and we were charged a 18% service fee.

ROJ remains a Chicago institution and the best Teppanyaki in town. The food was great, on the other hand, the service was unfriendly at best. We’ll be back soon despite of that

Chef had no interaction with us at table. Shrimp weren’t cooked thoroughly and neither was the chicken. Too dark in restaurant to read the menu.

Just disappointing all around. Very expensive for food. Did not get any “show” at all…just food cooked in front of you. Salad was SWIMMING in dressing. Plain white rice just put in small bowls in front of you LONG before food ready. Overall mediocre.
