This place was sooooo yummy! LOVED the edamame you have to get it and the white peach sake. Shrimp was delicious and I liked the soup a lot. Our waiter was literally the sweetest man ever. So attentive and kind!! The bathrooms do be messy tho

Our Social club came here for Friendsgiving, the restaurant was slow as it would be the day before Thanksgiving. The staff's warm hospitality and attentive made tonight’s eventful. The menu is bulky 32 pages, our chef was friendly, sociable and entertaining this venue significantly enhanced our social club's Friendsgiving gathering, the essence of sharing a bountiful meal and cherishing good friendships.

Mid experience. Not bad but not amazing. I did really like the salmon wrapped scallops. The mushroom miso soup was great. The spicy tuna roll was good for a tuna roll, nothing great. I didn't really like the chicken fried rice. The sweet green tea has a slight alcohol after taste. The strawberry lemonade is great. Tasted my friend's filet mignon. It was cooked well but kinda meh. Probably wouldn't go back there except my friend really enjoys the teppanyaki experience

Our server and many of the servers in the room did not put on a show. We came to this restaurant for lunch on a Sunday right when they opened, around noon. We were the third table seated for Teppanyaki and were really looking forward to it since it was a small family gathering and a bit of a special occasion. A few of us hadn’t been to a Teppanyaki dinner in a long time, and one family member had never experienced it before, so we were excited to share that with them and enjoy the classic tableside cooking show. Unfortunately, the experience was pretty disappointing. The chef who cooked for us seemed uninterested and barely engaged with the table. There was almost no entertainment or showmanship — he said “volcano” once, did a very minimal onion volcano, and that was basically the extent of the performance. It felt rushed and lacking in energy. I started to get the sense it might be that kind of experience because none of the other tables around us seemed to be having much of a show either. On top of that, the overall service and attention to detail were lacking. After finishing our soups and salads, our empty plates sat in front of us for nearly 20 minutes before anyone came to clear them, which made things feel a bit neglected. The food itself was fine but didn’t make up for the dull atmosphere and lack of interaction. For a place that’s supposed to be lively and fun, the whole meal just felt flat. Sadly, I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant if you’re looking for a real Teppanyaki experience — it just didn’t have the energy, entertainment, or service that make this type of dining special.

Passed this restaurant so many times finally came In to try it. Honestly, my favorite was the fried rice best I've ever had 😋 10/10. My drink could have been stronger but it was refreshing! Everything was good. The service was great. Everyone was nice & accommodating with the fans for the heat, also attentive. Good serving portions. I had leftovers! 🤭 Definitely recommend! 👌 Great place for a scenic walk after dinner
