Read moreHorrible service. Mediocre-at-the-very-best food. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME. Poorly seated immediately next to the door when it was 25F outside. I had to ask for a menu. When my dumpling soup came out the server [seemingly hispanic male, between 20 and 30, tattoo sleeve on his left arm] basically played ultimate frisbee with the soup dish, sloshing soup on the table and gave no apology. The water jugs on our table were ignored for being refilled. He incorrectly told us which sushi rolls were which. When it came time to pay he brought back the cash payment of one group member who payed $26 for a $25.25 meal and he said "Just a one dollar tip...?" and we had to tell him that tip was already included in the bill according to the rules of the establishment. I asked to pay with a prepaid $50 card and he attempted once, it didn't go through, and he refused to attempt it again per my request. A good server would attempt to type in the card number as a last resort. I paid with cash and he kept my coin change without asking. He didn't give one of our members their card back and claimed that he already did. He had to tell the server to go back to check and upon that request his card was found back at the register. Bad experience. This server was very...
Read moreFun and exciting environment. Feels like a party when you go, with the excitement and entertainment of chefs performing at the grill for the cheers of patrons. The food has a wonderful flaver. Even the light sauce on the seafood combination plate is surprisingly refreshing. It was the first time, I had it where it was not bland and yet was still mildly seasoned, giving it a perfect balance, allowing the flavors of the seafood to come through while still tantalizing your taste buds with additional flavors. A pure joy to find among the mundane souless restaurants out there. Even the ramen was well made with the broth, having taken time and care to slowly simmer its flavors together for an authentic (not instant mass produces restaurants package) broth that is perfectly seasoned. Paired with meat that is tender and flaverful, lifted the experience even higher. Truly magnificent. The servers are tentative and pay close attention to your needs. Without even telling them, they recognized it was our anniversary and gave us a complimentary fried banana dessert that topped the evening of with a sweet and crispy joyful adventure that paired will with the soft and sugary filling of banana. I highly recommend trying this out for a fun and...
