   The overall experience was par. We had a party of 8 for a birthday celebration. Our server had forgot numerous things, including the dessert for the young birthday girl. The chef was not interactive and barely said a word to the party! In my eyes, that is part of what you pay for when dining hibachi. He also kept screwing up who got what meat, and how to prepare it. Not sure if it was his first few days or just not into doing his job. Super disappointing for what you paid for it! No need to go back there! Much better hibachi experiences around town!

   My experience there was nice but the thing is it was too noisy and too loud and the service was taking too long. We had to wait in the lobby for 10 to 15 minutes for our seat to open up.

   Just ok. Restaurant is old and kind of dingy, definitely needs some upgrades and TLC. The food was bland and somewhat tasteless. Won’t be going back.

   Went on a Sunday night. Busy, but not packed. Seated in a good amount of time, but literally facing a corner of the room, facing the bathrooms nonetheless. I feel part of the fun of that room is enjoying the entire space. Orders taken no problem, and chef came out in reasonable amount of time. Our drink order took quiet a while, and we were never given water, even asking more than once. Chef prepared the meal, but really none of the flair. Granted, at the end, he attempted the onion move, threw three shrimp tails, sort of all over the place. Rice was bought after most of our meal was eaten. I felt I had reasonable expectations, and it just sorta missed on several levels.
