My family and I saw this restaurant online and since it was located in our neighborhood we decided to give it a try. We arrived at 8:45pm on a Friday night and the place was relatively empty. My family and I thought that was weird considering that the restaurant adjacent to them was filled to capacity with a long line waiting outside. We sat down and within a few minutes our waiter OAK came to the table. Her demeanor was very rude and aggressive. She was very loud and impatient. She rushed us through ordering and when we asked for a minute she immediately came back over where she continued to rush our order. When the soup and salad came out she plopped them down on our table and proceeded to yell out other orders across the room to the chef. When the hibachi chef came over he was very nice. He read back our order and began to cook our food. We noticed that the prices were high and portions were very small compared to the other Japanese Steakhouses that we have gone to.

Sweeping, Mopping, and Spraying down the tables while we were eating. Oak passed by and asked if we wanted to take our food to go. We said yes and she came over dropped the to go boxes on our table and began to process our bill on her wireless POS machine. She quickly ran through the order, charged our card , and never came back to give us a receipt. My husband went to get the receipt and after leaving we realized that we were charged for drinks that we didnât receive. Although the ambiance is nice, the price for the food portions and service was not up to par. Weâre a family of four and regardless of the party size they automatically charge 20% gratuity. Needless to say, we will NOT be returning. By the lack of patronage that they have, I see why! We did personally tip the Hibachi Chef a great tip because he was the best part of the...
