Food: An amazing place to eat with authentic sushi, sashimi, nagiri, hibachi, and more! As a sushi lover who can really eat, I definitely went a bit far while enjoying this place. This is everything I ate, with their A la Carte prices: Ponzu Tuna (1) ($10), Avocado Salad (1) ($6), Rainbow Eye (1) ($10), Salmon Tartar (1) ($9), Spicy Garlic Edamame (1) ($5), Gyoza Dumplings (1) ($6), Shumai (2 or 3) ($7/each), Crab Puffs (1) ($5), Teriyaki Wings (1) ($8), Tamago (1) ($5), Inari (1) ($5), Masago (1) ($6), Sweet Potato Roll (1) ($4), Pink Lady Roll (1) ($15), Scallop Love Roll (1) ($18), Desire Roll (1) ($18), Vegetable Hibachi (1) ($15), Udon Noodles (1) ($7), Green Tea Ice Cream (1) ($3), Tempura Cheesecake (1) ($6), Lemonberry Cloud Tea with Blueberry Boba (1) ($5), Pink Lemonade (2) ($3, free refill), Plain water, no ice (1) (Free)
I will especially recommend the Lemonberry Cloud Tea, it is super delicious. The only thing I didn't actually like was the Salmon Tartar. The spicy garlic edamame is very spicy but delicious, and the jalapenos in the desire rolls are raw if you get one with them the default way, so if you don't like spice, be careful with that. The Udon noodles were the perfect temperature and texture, firm but chewy and perfectly cooked to absorb the sauce. The Teriyaki wings are crispy and flavorful on the outside, with tender, fall off the bone meat on the inside. Also, the Tempura Cheesecake comes with chocolate on it but the menu doesn't say that and I don't like chocolate sauce, but the cheesecake itself is wonderful; soft and fluffy like a warm cloud. One other thing to nitpick is that none of the appetizers say what, if any, dipping sauce they come with on the menu.
Pricing: They have a great deal for endless eating as well. I would have spent $190 on everything I by myself ate, but it came out to $149.74 for our party of four, after tax and tip, due to their $31 Endless Dining Deal.
Service: While the waitress didn't get any of our food wrong or forget anything due to their tablets that their servers carry, most of our food was a bit slow coming out due to the fact that they make everything fresh on the spot when it is ordered. She also didn't really check on us except when bringing new dishes or she was bringing something to someone nearby. Very knowledgeable about the menu items though.
Atmosphere: While the booths and table chairs are both a bit hard, it's not extreme, although the booths are very cramped, especially for larger people. If you sit in the large party room on the back right of the restaurant, they have daylight bulbs in their chandeliers and soft yellows in the other lights, which creates a bit of a headache inducing contrast that is still pretty dim until your eyes adjust. The music is the perfect volume for background ambiance, which is quite rare to find, actually. The handicap accessible stall in the men's bathroom had a broken toilet seat that tries to fly out from under you with the slightest sideways shift and the door lock doesn't work (as...
Read moreFirst time to try this place. Likely won't be back. For starters, my kids entered first and the man seated us, he sits us in a small booth squeezed between 3 other groups of loud people with small children. It's a huge restaurant, was plenty of places to seat us besides that spot. It was obviously for the servers convienience, not ours, not to mention I am 6'5" 375lbs. I had to scoot the table to even get in the booth. Not considerate of the customer at all. So the next thing, this girl comes up to wait on us, and I told her to give us a minute we had never been there before.... I did tell her to bring us an order of egg rolls. The egg rolls sounded good on the menu. I ask her how many to the order, she explains "2" unless you get "all you can eat" then you get one. I was just befuddled by this, and said ok we will take an order. If they were any good i planned on ordering more. She comes back maybe one minute later and asks what we wanted to eat. We had all decided on the Hibachi steak. My kids had rice, and I picked noodles. Shortly after some other women hustles out 1 eggroll on a plate that had been cut in half 😆....I guess that constitutes 2 eggrolls???? I let my kids eat a half a peice each. I could tell by looking at it that it was right up there with some Chung King egg rolls from the frozen food section. The "salad" we received was not very tasty and had the aroma of canned tuna in my opinion. None of us enjoyed the salads. So out comes our "hibachi" steak dinners. I had about 3 bites of mine then gave the rest to my kids. They didn't finish it all either and they love steak. I would rank it right there with some grade C "box o steak" type beef. It was tender but had a strange taste to me. Not sure what it had been marinated in. No sauces offered except for the lonely bottle of la choi soy sauce on the table. My kids said the rice tasted very bland and flavorless and I took one bite of those noodles and knew they weren't for me. My kids tried it and said they tasted like cardboard. The waitress never came back so we had to ask how to pay. Had to go to the register and the man was piddling on his phone. I knocked on the counter to get his attention. Surprisingly it only came out to 71 bucks. I just paid it and we were glad to leave. I ended up eating some taco bell afterwards which was better than what we got served at this place. If you want good Hibachi just cough up a few more dollars and go to one of the "expensive"...
Read moreThis is just OUR experience last night; First, I'll say the food was delicious, the portions are just insanely small for the prices. We ordered the combination Hibachi to share for dinner (my son & I) & when we got it, it was nothing like the size of the picture on their menu -- it was significantly smaller. We also ordered two sushi rolls, one of which was the Fried Oyster roll. When I requested it, the waitress told me to choose something else b/c that roll would take a long time. A bit confused, I asked if they would make it at all, is that what she meant? She said they would make it, but I should order something else too b/c it takes a long time. That's when we ordered the combination Hibachi. When I asked for this, she handed me her ipad & told me to put it in!! I was SO shocked like um, ma'am, I don't know how to input orders on your tablet??? I politely declined & told her, I'm not sure how to do that. She leaves & comes back & said someone told her to pick any one of the hibachi choices. I showed her the menu picture of the Hibachi with shrimp, chicken & steak - we wanted that one; she said "ok". When we got our ticket, it was $80 flat & she charged us for two, "All You Can Eat Sushi" items. A quick note - their menu does not list prices so I had no idea what we should've been charged. She could tell that I was confused looking at my ticket so she comes back over, puts her leg on the side of the booth, leans onto me, hands me the tablet & asks me to help her find the items we ordered so she can give me an itemized ticket. Um...WHAT? I tried to help her, she ultimately found the different items but this was SO AWKWARD & made us extremely uncomfortable. Turns out, yes, we were overcharged. Btw, my son pointed out that she was "all up on me" more than once but she didn't behave this way with any of the other tables. I'm not sure what the deal is/was & while the food was delicious, I don't think we'll be going back here. If I may advise anything to other consumers, I would maybe ask for food pricing and/or just really pay attention to your ticket. I understand servers helping customers out by consolidating items but this was just odd/weird to...
