                                                          Our friend and kids loved this experience so much as they were first timers to hibachi! The view was beautiful with the Berkeley marina right there. The experience and staff were wonderful and super attentive. The food was good. Not as generous portion wise as other hibachi places (don’t get me wrong… I was FULL at the end but just same pricing with small portions). Also, my husband thought it was funny that they used pre-cooked chicken for the chicken fried rice… but he also said that he would come back again so… bottom line, pricey but fun place for celebrations!

                                                          Had to wait 30 min to be seated even with a reservation. However our server and the chef made up for it. They were fast and courteous. Food: The soup needs some flavor. Everything else was tasty
