Question 1

Does Jinbeh have tofu?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Jinbeh serves tofu at both Frisco and Lewisville locations as part of the vegetarian and vegan hibachi entrées and as an option in soups and salads. Tofu hibachi includes firm tofu cooked on the grill alongside vegetables, fried rice, and the chef's tableside performance, it gets the same treatment as the meat-based hibachi entrées with the choice of mustard, ginger, or yum yum sauce. For vegan diners, request no butter on the grill and steamed rice instead of fried (which contains egg). Tofu also appears in some miso soup preparations and can be added to sushi rolls as inari (sweet tofu pouches) or in custom vegetable rolls. Confirm preparation details with your server based on dietary needs.

Question 2

Does Jinbeh have vegetarian options?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Jinbeh has vegetarian options at both Frisco and Lewisville locations. The vegetarian hibachi entrée includes hibachi vegetables (zucchini, onion, mushroom, bell pepper) and tofu cooked on the grill alongside fried rice. The full hibachi experience, chef performance, onion volcano, sauces, is available vegetarian. Sushi vegetarian options include cucumber rolls, avocado rolls, vegetable rolls, sweet potato tempura rolls, and inari (tofu skin). Sides like edamame, miso soup, seaweed salad, vegetable tempura, and gyoza (vegetable version) round out the vegetarian menu. Inform your server of vegetarian preferences so they can flag sauces and stocks that may contain fish (like bonito-based dashi in miso soup).

Question 3

Does Jinbeh have vegan options?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Jinbeh has vegan options at both locations. Vegan hibachi is available with vegetables and tofu, no butter or eggs, tell your server and chef that you are vegan so they can adjust (most hibachi uses butter on the grill and egg in the fried rice). Steamed white rice or noodles can be substituted. Vegan sushi options include cucumber rolls, avocado rolls, sweet potato tempura rolls (skip the eel sauce), and custom vegetable rolls. Edamame, seaweed salad (check dressing), and steamed rice are vegan. Avoid yum yum sauce (contains mayo), mustard sauce (contains cream), and miso soup (often uses fish-based dashi). Stick to soy sauce, ginger sauce, and simple preparations. Vegan dining works with advance notice and clear communication.

Question 4

Does Jinbeh have gluten-free options?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Jinbeh has gluten-free options at both Frisco and Lewisville locations. Hibachi proteins (chicken, steak, shrimp, scallops, salmon, filet mignon) can be cooked gluten-free using gluten-free tamari instead of regular soy sauce, just inform your server and hibachi chef before the chef starts cooking. Sushi options like sashimi, nigiri, and many basic rolls can be made gluten-free as long as you skip soy sauce or request gluten-free tamari. Fried rice contains soy sauce and is not gluten-free as standard; we can substitute steamed white rice. Tempura, teriyaki, and most sauces contain wheat. Always tell us about gluten sensitivity or celiac at the beginning of the meal so we can take cross-contamination precautions on the grill.

Question 5

What is hibachi at Jinbeh?

Accepted Answer

Hibachi at Jinbeh is tableside Japanese cooking on a large iron griddle (teppanyaki style), performed by a skilled chef directly in front of your group. A typical hibachi meal at Jinbeh includes onion soup, salad with ginger dressing, fried rice, grilled vegetables, and your choice of protein, chicken, shrimp, scallops, steak, filet mignon, lobster tail, or combinations. The chef performs knife tricks, builds the famous onion volcano, and cooks each protein to order on the grill. Hibachi tables seat up to 10 guests around the grill. The experience runs about 60 to 75 minutes and includes our signature mustard sauce, ginger sauce, and yum yum sauce.
