This is our "to go" spot for family birthday gatherings. It's a great experience for adults and children. The Hibachi is amazing and never disappoints! Love the Miso Soup and Salad! Love the Shrimp, Steak & Chicken.

We had a great corporate event here. The place is well designed in order to accommodate large or small parties. I was very surprised by how much food we got. The chefs were fun and entertaining. A wide variety of foods and sushi. Lunch specials, too.

The staff was rude. The lady screamed and yelled at me for suggesting a better seat in a completely empty restaurant. Not one customer but us and she refused then said you can move later if no one comes. We had been there for 15 mins before she took the drink order and kept standing around (waiting to see if others would come) before taking our order. We left did not eat.

One of my favorite restaurants! The staff is so warm and friendly, and will take excellent care of you. The food is consistently well made, delicious, and quick to arrive. I love their sushi, their hibachi, their appetizers! The atmosphere is so great, too. They have booths that are slightly inset so it feels like you have a little private dining area.

The Chef’s are awesome, great personality and technical skill. Fried Rice, hibachi steak, veggies and chicken were great! Unfortunately the salad was swimming in Ginger Dressing and it didn’t taste fresh. The Soup was good but it was diluted and seemed like salt was just added to compensate. The noodles at the end didn’t taste very good, they were like spaghetti noodles which didn’t fit the Japanese theme. The best thing by far was the fried rice! The venue was also filled with smoke, this lead to floors being sticky. One of the vents might not be working very well or the a/c is struggling. Otherwise the venue and decoration itself was very nice, and way more than I expected. The amount of options for sides is quite limited.

One of my favorite restaurants! The staff is always very welcoming, and the service is consistently excellent. Their menu is literally beautiful, and the food is delicious. I can’t say enough good things about their appetizers (I really love the calamari and edamame), sushi, and hibachi. It’s all great. The vibe is fantastic too. The booths are slightly inset and it feels like a semi-private dining experience. It’s one of my favorite places to visit!

Pretty good. The food was decently cooked even if the chef want very talkative. Not much more expensive than other similar places of this style. They are fast though. Within minutes of us ordering the chef was out to begin cooking. I felt like the food was a bit overcooked personally but my wife loved her chicken so to each their own, just be prepared for it to be a bit charred.

I recently have ordered hibachi delivery and the food quality is amazing and hasn't gone downhill like other hibachi locations. I highly recommend this restaurant. ALSO i recently have ordered the sushi and its literally my new addiction. They have the best tasting sushi its fresh and lovely.
