The restaurant was busy but we only waited about 10 minutes to be seated. The food here was delicious. We ordered salmon, lobster, and shrimp from the hibachi grill. All the entrees were very flavorful and tasted fresh. It was my sons birthday dinner, and they do make it a very special production out of it with a big drum and gongs. 🤣 it was a fun evening. Just be careful with the sake.... it does get quite warm in temperature.

New Years Eve dinner. Nice atmosphere and decor. Had a short wait to get a table. We had an older chef who was a fantastic cook, maybe not the most flamboyant with tricks, but our table was pretty low key and didn't want rice thrown at us or sake shot into our mouths - he did try though. The onion sound was really nicely flavored, and the salad was fresh and crispy. I did notice the dressing, while flavorful, was a little too watery. Be aware that if you order double rice and no vegetables, you will get a HUGE portion of very tasty rice - like 3/4 plate of rice. All the food was cooked perfectly and expertly. I was a little disappointed in the ginger sauce and mustard sauce because they were both watery and did stick to the meat very well. It's definitely a place to go for hibachi!!!

It took a while to get in because it was very busy but was more than worth the wait... Amazing staff they are checked to make sure you're doing well up until you got the chef. He was very entertaining indeed. The food was amazing I'll always love tat fried rice and salmon it's just so delicious. Another location and it's excellent!!

My husband and I always sit at the hibachi table, but decided to do the regular dining area instead last night. The food is definitely not as good as when they cook it right in front of you. It wasn’t very hot, and lacked a little in the flavor department. We also got “spicy mustard” and it was awful. I got one and I was confused so I made my husband ask for spicy mustard as well and it was… better but still so off. It seemed watered-down somehow and wasn’t even remotely yellow (added a pic of our “mustard”). It was very strange. All this to say, just wait for a Hibachi table because the food and everything is top tier that way and has never disappointed!

We went at dinner on a Wednesday night. We got in quickly. Service was impeccable! The food was amazing. It was the best hibachi in Lubbock. The chicken was tender and so was the steak. The rice was very flavorful. The onion soup had an umami flavor and tons of depth, you could tell it wasn’t just bullion in water with onion and mushroom added. The portions were also quite generous. We have 3 kids and the kids meals were reasons priced and also generous portions. I will absolutely be returning! I highly recommend this place.

If you’re giving this place anything but 5 stars, you’re crazy! My boyfriend and I had a wonderful experience dining here. The sushi was amazing and also reasonably priced. Our server was also very nice and attentive. This place is definitely a must try for date night!

Delicious sushi! Visited during a Saturday around 2PM & we were sat immediately for a party of 2. It was not very busy. Our waitress was very quiet, got to us quickly, & was kind & attentive. I ordered the Jalapeño Bomb appetizer, Pink Lady Roll, & Snow-crab Heaven Roll. The Jalapeño Bomb was SO good & SO spicy. It’s fresh, crunchy, raw jalapeños stuffed with deliciousness. The Pink Lady roll was good, my only complaint was the cucumber was VERY bitter. & the Crab one was my favorite. It’s so tall, so just get ready to unhinge your jaw to get it all in one bite! Lol over all, delicious sushi place! We will be returning.

We sat at the sushi bar and were warmly greeted. After giving our drink order the gentleman who made our drinks and explained the menu was friendly and was doing a great job at keeping everything clean and talked respectfully to his employees. The service was first class and we loved everything from beginning to end. Casual and perfect both for couples and families, they also have a large area where they serve hibachi style meals. I will definitely be back.
