Cho Cho San Restaurant

Always fun to watch the chefs cook at the hibachi grill! It's like dinner and a show! Great place for celebrating Birthdays! The filet mignon was melt in your mouth amazing! And of course the veggies and shrimp are always yummy!

We went as a group of 6 for my birthday celebration. It was my first time to visit there. Nice Japanese warriors as decor. The chef definitely amazed me with his skills to slice and dice and to manipulate the fire. Food was very tasty! As a birthday special, two servers sang the birthday song to me in both English and Japanese, and I got two flavored ice cream which I had to share with my kids. The servers were very helpful in explaining the menu to us and recommending the food. The only drawback was that I didn’t know if we didn’t occupy the 8 seats, we could have two strangers share the table with us. I really didn’t mind it because in my culture, which is Chinese, we share food with anybody, strangers or not. But just saying it would have been good if I was aware of it so I didn’t feel maybe we were the intruders to the lovely couple. Overall, I am very satisfied with the restaurant. We went at night so that noise was just right to get us in the night show mood!

Went here during the day for lunch to celebrate. My Family and I were the only ones in there. The service was not the best. The server made is feel like we shouldn't be there. This was our first time here, and the server was not helpful at all navigating the menu. The Tapanyaki style food was great. The gentlemen that was cooking made good food and a decent little show. But the server just killed the vide, just after getting our food the server asked if we wanted to go boxes. Can we enjoy the food before you want us to pack up pay and leave as soon as possible? We will not be returning just because of the server. The cups need to be replaced. For what patrons are going to pay, dishware should be up to par.

Came from out of state for dinner with coworkers and the food and service were amazing! The chef put on a great show and everyone was very happy! Can't wait come back the next time I'm in California!

We had such a great time at Cho Cho San in Thousand Oaks for a family birthday! Since we’ve got a 9‑month‑old, we weren’t sure how it would go, but it worked out perfectly. The place is super kid‑friendly, with a relaxed family sit‑down vibe and a really fun staff. The food and drinks were excellent too. Highly recommend if you’re looking for a spot where you can be lively, enjoy yourself, and have a fun time together!

Cho Cho San is a long time staple of the area. It’s a classic. I would certainly recommend its happy hour for inexpensive, sushi and drinks. We usually do this place for birthdays and other celebrations. It’s fun and the food is good! If you are looking for clean new bright and cheeri you will be disappointed. But if you’re looking for a solid place that has been around since the beginning of time and does classic cook in front of you Teppanyaki and pretty good sushi with inexpensive drinks,then this is the place for you.

I’ve been coming to Cho Cho Son for a long time now and I don’t know why it has taken me this long to leave a review. The food is great, service is good, pricing is reasonable, and it’s always consistent and that earns them at five star for me. They have always treated me well. I would even argue it is better than Benihanas. I highly recommend Cho Cho Son.
