It started by waiting 45 min to get started. It was cold in there but we knew it would get better after the table being fired up but that took so long. Never was offered refills of drinks and ice was melted by the time we ate, we asked 3 times for extra egg they did listen, had to waive down someone to get to go boxes, and I order Teriyaki Chicken and mine was prepared like the others guests that requested Hibachi chicken. Chicken was done but could have cooked longer. It was frustrating.

Drinks where great! I ordered a samurai and was very pleased with it. I'm not much the drinker however. What I am, is a enjoyer of shrimp. I ordered the Tokyo special that came with steak chicken and shrimp with fried rice and had a blast with it! The flavor was excellent! Can't wait to go back and have it again!

Adequate, no ginger dressing for salad. And no sauces offered with entree.

So my total bill was $130. For me and my three children. That's normal and I would not mind paying that. It was their first time at a hibachi and I was super excited to take them to one as I've been going to this one since I was a little girl. This hibachi has went downhill 100%. I would not recommend to anybody. The store is filthy and outdated. Not to mention the entire back room is just cluttered with stuff all over the walls and the floors. The salads were just lettuce with a galapa dressing on top. It's not even the ginger dressing anymore. The food was next to bad. I would say on a scale of 1 to 10 I would give it literally a four at best. The flavor was good. The chef was a subpar. This place is completely went downhill. I wish they'd open a new one up north here so that we would have somewhere else to go. Otherwise we have to go all the way to Kansas But from now on we will start going

Visited this long time family favorite and found it to be less than memorable. While the preparation followed the traditional script, the food lacked any robust flavors. The yum yum sauce - a mandatory addition to our shrimp - was watery and lacking in its flavor. After years of so many enjoyable meals there, the entire experience was surreal. We’re hoping it was just an off night, but at $35 a meal, some apprehension to double down on what could be a bad decision. Be aware that they have posted a sign that states due to rising costs their sodas and teas are now charged by serving. Not that we consume a great deal of either for this to be an issue. But one does reflect how much did the price of green tea bags go up to require another $2.50 be charged if I by chance needed another tea? Here’s to a hopeful better experience next time 🤞🤞
