This was my second hibachi experience. The last time my party got items from the grill but I only ordered from the kitchen. This time I wanted to experience the fun. Our chef, Sergio, was amazing! He was fun, attentive, amenable to our preferences and kept us entertained with jokes and grill work. I ordered the shrimp tempura. It's my go to at Japanese restaurants and this was crunchy and flavorful and they give you a decent amount. I ordered the shrimp and garlic rice. It was delicious. Sergio flavored it just right and everyone in my group loved it. They have an extensive cocktail menu and I ordered a Godiva hazelnut martini and a German chocolate cake martini. They were delicious but very strong. I should have only had one. I will know for next time! All in all, this was a superb dining experience.
This place is always very popular and now I see why! Big shout out to Samantha and Jasmine - these hostesses saved my meal with their quick thinking and great customer service!
The best tepanyaki meal ever! The garlic fried rice was so moist and delicious, make sure you ask for extra garlic! I ordered the Sea of Japan and seafood was cooked perfectly! Sergio, our cook was entertaining, friendly and funny thus making our dining experience so delightful! To top it all, they gave my son a slice of cake with a Candle on it and sang happy birthday to him, he was celebrating his 23rd bday! I would definitely go back here again! Efficient fast service and friendly staff!
Lunchtime didn't have much of a wait, but if you have a smaller sized group, the tables hold 10 so they'll seat you with another group -- just get chummy & friendly! Salmon, chicken & garlic rice were the biggest hits. Daughter loved the scallops. Chef was amazing and fun, but servers were busy even with a not-busy restaurant...a few reminders for drink refills. Increase in prices was sharp, but plenty of rice at least. The chef "show" might be worth coming again, for a birthday.
