I thought long and hard before deciding to write this review, but after visiting this hibachi buffet on two separate occasions — once around 2018 or 2019 and again recently — I felt it was necessary to share my honest thoughts. Sadly, nothing has improved since my first visit.
Most recently, I went for dinner and noticed right away how quiet the place was, with very few people dining in. The food looked like it had been sitting out for hours. The dumplings tasted off, almost spoiled, and the chicken was cut into tiny bite-sized pieces that were overcooked and difficult to chew — possibly an attempt to stretch limited portions.
One of the most confusing parts of the buffet is the raw hibachi section. It’s placed right next to the ready-to-eat buffet items, but there’s no signage to explain that the food is raw and meant to be cooked separately. That could be a serious health concern for guests who aren’t familiar with how hibachi buffets typically work.

Soon as my card was swiped I got a notification with a different amount. I showed my waitress the transaction on my phone she told me I COULD NOT TALK TO HER MANAGER! I walked past her towards the register she tried her best to stop me so I wouldn’t reach the front. As I was walking they started talking in a language that I couldn’t understand. I told I’m assuming it was the manager what happened, as I’m standing at the register she is talking to someone behind the register there’s a lady laying down on the floor behind the register. Make a long story short they passed me around to three different people & I still didn’t get my money back. They will swipe your card for a different amount if I didn’t have alerts on my phone I would have never none. Myself & my 3 daughters ate. 2 adults & 2 kids my bill was $66.83 but charged my card. $79.84 the food was...
