Best Shumai Sauce that I have ever tasted!!! Absolutely amazing sushi, best hibachi steak and chicken...Great atmosphere in the evening. The only reason I'm not giving 5 stars in afternoon service is way lacking. My husband and I went in to get an appetizer (dumplings with Shumai sauce ) and order an early dinner to go to take home to have with our daughter when she got off work. We literally waited almost 10 minutes with no one coming to the door, so we set at the bar (after asking a waitress if we could) Where we were ignored for another 5 minutes until I finally got up and went & found 3 waitresses talking, where I asked if it was ok if we put an order in. I was very nice and apologetic, but was treated as if I was intruding. We did eventually get our food, which was delicious as always, but I definitely recommend going in the evening.
The food here is great. The service is exceptional. The chefs do a great job entertaining. Just a great atmosphere.
This was not my first visit here but it had been several years since I had eaten here. While this is a Hibachi restaurant with the dining at a cooktop, they also have traditional seating so if you don't want to eat with a group you can. They also have sushi and a bar, with plenty of seating so wait times are usually short. My food was really good and they gave me a good sized portion, which at some of the hibachi type restaurants I don't always think the portions are adequate for the price. The service was great and my food came quickly, our server was really attentive and checked on us often. The dining area seemed clean and neat, my only issue was that the men's restroom was pretty dirty and seemed as though it hadn't been cleaned or taken care of. All in all this was a good dining experience and I would stop back in when im in the area.
The food potions are perfect and the sushi is fresh! Wait staff is eager to help answer questions or provide accommodations. Family friendly.
Had a nice lunch of seaweed salad with cucumber and a huge bowl of noodles and fresh vegetables and chicken. Really hit the spot. Great veggie options so we'll be back :)
