The anime-inspired experience

I just order from here and as soon as I got home and took a bite….. I knew this was going to be my go to place! Whatever you do, please never leave lol! I got the chicken hibachi with fried rice and veggies and it also comes with yum yum sauce. The chicken was not dry at all, very juicy with great flavor. I will be back 🫶🏽💜

Food was fresh, flavorful, and good quality Everything we tried was delicious, and the portions were satisfying. The service was friendly and the food came out fresh and hot. If you love Japanese food, sushi, or trying something new, I definitely recommend giving this food truck a try! 🇯🇵🍱❤️ Will come back for more.

Drove by and saw goku on the side of a truck and had to check it out. The staff were nice and oh my gosh the food was sooo good. The hibachi and sushi here are phenomenal and good portions for extremely reasonable price. Will be coming back.
