Hinode Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi

Hinode Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi is a renowned dining establishment that has been a local favorite in Springfield, Missouri, for over two decades. Established in 2001, the restaurant has grown from eight hibachi tables to seventeen. It also includes a dedicated sushi section, offering a diverse and interactive dining experience for guests of all ages.

The restaurant specializes in teppanyaki-style cooking, where skilled chefs prepare meals right at the table on a hibachi grill. This provides both entertainment and a personalized touch to each meal.

The menu features a variety of options such as filet mignon, teriyaki chicken, and a selection of fresh sushi rolls. Popular dishes include the Las Vegas Roll, a California Roll topped with eel, avocado, and eel sauce, as well as the Weewowow Roll, known for its unique combination of flavors.

Ownership and Community Engagement

In 2005, the Kwon family took ownership, bringing a renewed focus on quality ingredients and community engagement. Their commitment is evident through partnerships with local organizations such as the Discovery Center of Springfield and Big Brothers Big Sisters.

These partnerships aim to make a positive impact through food and education, reinforcing the restaurant's role in the community.

Expansion and Sister Restaurant

To further expand their culinary offerings, Hinode opened a sister restaurant called Bawi Korean BBQ in Springfield in 2018. The sister restaurant continues their mission of providing interactive dining experiences that educate and entertain.
