Hibachi 88 — Restaurant in Spirit Lake

Must've been a very busy night, a mixed review. The food was good, hot & fresh. I got the Schezwan Beef. They're very stingy with the sweet & sour sauce for appetizers. Got very little or none at all. Couldn't help but compare this establishment to another local restaurant who has sweet & sour sauce right on the table. Felt like once we ordered & the robot delivered the food, it was kind of an irritation to the waitress to ask for anything else since there is only one & she was doing everything. I understand that they have the robot to help hence not needing more human help, but if it feels like too much for customers to ask for additional things once the robot serves the food...then maybe they should get one more person to help out. It did not feel comfortable nor accommodating for a group of five. We will...

The menu here is VERY extensive, everything from hibachi to Chinese dishes you will find at most restaurants to sushi. I ordered the garlic tofu with mixed vegetables. This was one of the best tofu dishes I've had in a long time! The tofu was perfectly cooked, fried and chewy on the outside, soft and pillowy inside. It had a chili pepper next to it on the menu so I thought it was going to be spicy. However it was not really spicy at all so if you like spicy things you might want to specify that. My husband ordered general tso's chicken and said that the chicken was cooked well with really nicely sized pieces (other places sometimes cut them too big and they don't get cooked properly). Service was good and the inside was decorated nicer than I expected based on...

Very pleased with the food. Customer serves could improve. Be more friendly then "yep this is my job what can I get for you." Group I was with was asked twice what would we like to drink. Had the Caterpillar roll and Hunan Shrimp, shrimp was mild spicy, not bad at all for me and I don't like very spicy food. Very recommended. Very bright in the store wish the lighting was a little softer. Definitely will be back....rolls are a little pricey but....still amazing, put together well so they don't fall apart when dipping into soy....hate it when they fall apart. Will be returning soon with company....and they are right next door to the Berkeley outlet. Hell ya, lunch and discount fishing...
