Food was great as always but service needed some work. She basically wanted us to get the hell out.

This was not the first time here it is a good place to eat. The chefs put on great cooking performance. I was there last night from my brother's birthday and it was amazing. The chef we had was was good and funny. I highly recommend to check it out. It is a little pricey.

Honestly, a fantastic Japanese steakhouse. The portions were huge, and the food was delicious. I will say that the showmanship of the actual hibachi performance was pretty minimal and probably the least involved out of any hibachi restaurant I’ve been to. However, we did go on a holiday, Valentines, so it was super busy and that may have possibly contributed to the speedy service. I will absolutely be going back, and this is the best Japanese steakhouse in the area by a longshot.

The sushi was okay overall. Some of the rolls fell apart and the taste was a little inconsistent even though I ordered all one kind, but it was still a decent meal.
