Came here earlier this week because I was craving Gyoza. There weren't many people in the restaurant and that's probably because it was around 3pm. The interior is very nice and Im sure the atmosphere would have been even better If I had come by in the evening.

I ordered the Gyoza, Crab Puffs (Or perhaps they were called cream cheese puffs), and the Philadelphia roll. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the food before eating it but the presentation was nice.

Crab Puffs/Cream Cheese Puffs The outside was crunchy and the inside was rich and creamy. The filling was very sweet and seemed to be mixed with chunks of crab. But there were too few crab chunks mixed in that I barely noticed until I took a closer look. There was also less filling than what I expecting, so when I picked up the puff it was almost flat other than the folded ends that stick up on the top. The sauce that was served with the puffs was also really sweet, so I opted to not mix them together. If you are someone who is looking for a sweet/crunchy appetizer, you might want to order this. Unfortunately, I was expecting something more savory and this was too sweet for me, so I likely will not order this dish again.

Gyoza The Gyoza were not as crunchy as I was anticipating. The bottom had a bit of crunch to them but it was minimal. And the filling was bland/inoffensive. I took a look inside and I couldn't notice any seasonings or ingredients other than the meat. It didnt taste bad, but it also wasn't remarkable. The sauce served with this dish was tasty and definitely did most of the leg work when it came to flavor.

Philadelphia Roll The fillings used inside the roll were bigger than what I'm used to seeing at other places, which is always a plus. The salmon was smoked and delicious which worked well with the avocado and cream cheese they used. All combined, this dish gave rise to a smokey, rich, and creamy flavor. I really liked this dish 👍

Overall, this being the first time I visit this restuarant, it was ok. I might visit again the future to give the gyoza...

The food was very good. The portion was very good. The service was NON observant to our needs. I can only review to what I experienced and ordered. There were a total of 8 at the table.

1. I could not get our server's attention when we needed her. This was in behalf of the table that wanted to order & needed refills for our drinks. No big deal but she was chatting it up with the staff and never looked our way when needed. It appeared we were her only table. ☆She got a good tip BTW☆.
2. I ordered the Hibachi Combo for $26.50, Steak & Shrimp. The food was cooked spot on. I ordered my steak medium rare (Hibachi cooked) good portion for the price. The shrimp was cooked spot on. The vegetables were cooked spot on. Usually when I eat out I can often leave still feeling hungry. This was not the case. I was impressed that it was portioned generously for the price. Here is where I had a HUGE problem. The steak & shrimp was floating in vegetable water which ruined the Hibachi (grilled & seared meat & shrimp) All steak, shrimp, and vegetables were segregated on the plate but everything was mixed with the juice from vegetable water. I can only assume that the vegetables were boiled and not drained properly because the plate was deep in water. It defeated the Hibachi. It was more like soup-ish Was it good, yes. All the water on the plate cooled the food down to the point of being cold & tepid. Would I eat there again? Yes I would, but now knowing what I experienced I would either bring this up before ordering or try something else. Again, this is my experience with the...
