First time visiting Pawleys Island. Popped in for some take out just to get a little break from seafood. Everything was excellent! Super customer service, nice people, food tasted great, price was very reasonable. Highly recommend.

I have been coming here for almost 10 yrs. I have never once, been upset or disappointed with this place. The old owners were an adorable older couple, they knew every customer like their own family members. The new owners are starting on the same path. They made sure the new owners would love the town and shop like they did. The food is always good and super filling. The prices match and are completely reasonable. The shop itself is a small little hole in the wall, but don’t let that stop you. They get super busy and still manage to get orders right and flowing. I’d rather come here than most hibachi places around town. 10/10 love this place

We ordered to go. So far, it’s the best Asian food we’ve eaten since moving here in 2014. The good restaurants are not convenient to us, but this one is. We’ll be back.

Great Lunch and Good Price! I ordered and devoured the Filet & Shrimp Hibachi Entree and it was delicious! My steak was cooked a perfect medium, and the shrimp were seared just as like them to be, slightly golden brown. The rice was cooked perfect and the vegetables were cut to a perfect size. The cashier was polite and friendly. I highly recommend Sone Hibachi! If you are looking for a laid-back, casual, local favorite spot to enjoy lunch or dinner then try this place!
