It is common knowledge that most coll
students are always looking for a great plat
eat for very little money.
What these students don't know is that
Columbia there is a restaurant where they
Unbeknownst to most USC students is
Hibachi, a Japanese restaurant on Decker
Boulevard. It may be difficult to find for so
but good food awaits those who make the
Hibachi's menu features a variety of
entrees, which are the most popular and tl
most frequently ordered. Entree meat choi
range from chicken to steak or shrimp or a
combination of any of the three. For those
vegitarians out there, Hibachi also offers a
vegetable entree.
Fried rice, stir-fried vegetables, salad wi
ginger dressing and oriental style soup are
included in the price of the entree. For the
who are really hungry, extra orders of any
meat can be added for a small price.
Of course the best thing about Hibachi
the price. For around $10 a person, Hibacl
serves up a full meal. Most customers leavt
there with buttons popping on their shirts
enough food to eat for lunch the next day.
The only thing wrong with Hibachi is
service. Sometimes it can take a while to gi
menus and to place orders. And a custome
may or may not get his ice cream at the en

waiting. Needless to say, the service there i
somewhat confusing. Sometimes there is o
server, other times there may be as many a!
five.
Despite this, Hibachi is not a restaurant
Columbia population should ignore. It has
great food at great prices, and the atmosph
is cozy enough for that intimate dinner wit
friends.
