Originally sat at the bar since I was dining by myself and didn't want to take up a larger table. Ordered my dinner and waited for my food to come. When the bartender came back with the first course I asked to be moved to a table since the seats were so uncomfortable. The server promptly picked up my drink and usurer me to the closest table which was great except he left me on my own to transport my soup, salad and water... what ever. I waited tables, I know how to carry multiple items at a time. When my main course arrived the beef was cold, the scallops were cold, the shrimp portion of the habachi meal was short and cold as well. The only thing above room temp. was the fried rice. I should have known better than to eat room temp seafood but I decided to get this place the benefit of the doubt. Big mistake... Any way, towards the end of my meal, I found a chuck of plastic wrap stuck to one if the pieces of beef. A minute later the server finally came back to see how my food was and I gave him the plastic and aksed him to let the kitchen know it had gone out plated with dinner. Again, not the worst thing that could happen. Shortly after the bartender stopped by and presented me with my tab. First time I had seen him since he moved me to a table. I paid and left. Before I reached my car the consequences of eating this meal began to become increasingly apparent... thank the gods there was a restroom between me and my car! I immediately regretted my decision to eat the cold seafood and can feel nothing but empathy to the person in the bathroom stall next to me. While the tragedy went on, the lesson learned has been clear. Avoid this place and make sure to never eat room temp. seafood regardless of a...
Read moreFor me personally, this was the worst experience I've ever had at a Japanese steakhouse. Lets start with my interaction with the hostess. I walked in, and she was wearing leggings, and a crop top tank top, with her belly hanging out. She was chewing on her necklace, and her greeting was not friendly at all. So clearly this place of business has no standard for how their employees groom and or present themselves. Not appetizing. Plus her attitude was shockingly rude. She didn't want to seat my boyfriend and I at the last table they seated in the hibachi grill area, even though there was room and they had just been seated, might I add. So we didn't get to be seated there. We then got seated in the back of the restaurant with little to no lighting, and barely any interaction with the employees. We still ordered our hibachi meals, and when they came quality was questionable. All of the food was cold (I don't like cold steak) and it all tasted like the miso soup they serve. The only interaction I was pleased with, was the very nice gentleman who served my boyfriend and I. I tipped him a $20, because there's no reason he should suffer because of everybody else and their low standards. All in all, you're better off going to the roadhouse across the...

One of my top recommendations is the hibachi gluten-free salmon—it's always perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. Their fried rice is equally exceptional, complementing the main dish with its rich taste and satisfying texture.
