OTP is definitely the move for affordable hibachi. This Norcross spot is a go-to for sushi and hibachi, with very well-priced lunch specials. You can get your food to go or sit around one of their hibachi tables. They do go a little heavy on the sauce, so be sure to ask for a little less if that’s not your thing.
