Customer Reviews

"First time at this restaurant. Parking was hard to find and the spaces were very small. We were seated very quickly. The waitress was very polite. We order a Mexican Roll and some edamame. The main course was two steak dinners. The food came out fast one right after the other. We had no space on the table and felt rushed. The food was good and very good portions. The restaurant needs to know better how to serve food in courses."

"The food was great tonight. We go once or twice a month , and enjoy it. The service is always good."

"Hibachi chef cooks food right in front of you, artfully playing with the food, flipping out around and main a great effort to entertain people at the table. We've been here many times. The best experience comes when you are actively engaged with the chef. The more you laugh and cheer him on, the better his performance. (Just like all entertainers - can you imagine going to a football game where the people sit quietly on their phones, not cheering? For those who do not want to participate with the chef experience, the restaurant does have regular tables where you can eat, like any other restaurant.) We had the trio-chicken, shrimp, steak and all the veggies - mushrooms, squash, broccoli, onions, and, of course, rice. The sauce is a must for the rice and all of it. Everything was wonderfully seasoned, cooked to perfection, and enough to feed you a few times. The sushi is equally wonderful, but pricy. Regretfully, I will have to forgo that next time due to the price. But it is sooo good! The overall temperature is kept a bit cool (so wear warmer clothes), but you warm up some when the chef lights up the entire grill and the fire warms you."

"I went here with my significant other this past Valentine's Day and it was quite pleasant. We have both never been but have talked about going before. Initially we were sat at the grill despite asking for a table, but we told the waitress and we got sat at a table then. The food was very delicious and the service was a little slow but I believe they were short staffed for VD. I would definitely come again "

"It was my son's birthday 35 years old he was a great celebration. He's from out of town and this is where he wanted to go I ordered a glass of wine did not get it till halfway through my meal. That was disappointing I always enjoy a glass of wine before the meal. I mentioned not to the waitress. There is other people at our table. The one woman goes weekly there. She did ask for extra food to take home. The only problem was the chef did not make enough food my husband and I were the last to be served there wasn't much on our plates my son and his wife was there. They didn't get much either hardly any rice was left over. There was eight people. Our vegetables for very burnt we only had a few. We order filet and scallops the other people order fillet and chicken they got most of the meat. Harvest scallops were way overcooked. That actually was our first time going there. We surely wouldn't go back. The chef did run back to get some more food a few times. The other guests brought home four boxes of food. Which was fine. But when you go home hungry from Japanese restaurant definitely something wrong."
