Tried the sesame chicken and a sushi roll. Both we’re not good.. the staff came to check on us and I told her I didn’t like it and wasn’t able to eat…. She just laughed lol. Plus the chairs were super uncomfortable, which pissed me off more than the food ….

Nice plump sushi and rich miso soup. Bento boxes are about $32 when you add all the options. Plenty of parking. Interesting list of craft cocktails.

My wife took me here to celebrate my birthday while we were in town for business. It was your typical hibachi restaurant; the food was decent, and the chef was very nice and attentive. I ordered the lobster tail with shrimp and fried rice with mixed vegetables, while my wife ordered the scallops and chicken fried rice with mixed vegetables.However, the restaurant, especially upon entering the restaurant and in the dining room, was rather unkempt. Some furnishings required a thorough wipe down, and cobwebs were evident in certain areas upon entering. Upon being seated, we noticed that all our plates had a greasy residue. Given the price of over $120 for two people, one would anticipate the atmosphere to match with the price point.Pros:-Decent hibachi-style food.-Friendly and attentive chef.Cons:-Dirty dining room with cobwebs and greasy plates.-Some furnishings needed to be wiped down.

Very average sushi rolls, mostly rice and tasteless. The place looks like a high school cafeteria.

Too pricey and their steak a little bit hard.

We had dinner there to celebrate our friends birthday. Hadn't had hibachi in a few years so decided to try it. Food was pretty good. Portions were big. I chose the scallops and my girlfriend choose steak and we shared. Overall the experience is nice. Our chef was fun!Parking: Free parking on the side of building.Kid-friendliness: It's a kid friendly place.

Dude. No. Don't. Sushi is bad. And there is a burrito on the menu. Literally, a meat burrito. At a sushi place.

Went here with family on NYE and had a great meal. The rice is amazing (get it with bacon). Lots of food, you will not leave hungry. Love the sauces they give you. Yum!

Third time in a row now that I’ve ate here and had to run to the bathroom before even leaving. I did have sushi all three times so not sure if it’s their fish but each time I left in pure pain. Will not be returning.

Not a good experience. Chicken was freezer burnt in my lunch bento box. Confusing pricing structure. 3 min items for the bento boxes, $11.00 per item , so a simple Bento Box cost my wife & I $34 each. $80 for 2 Bento Boxes & 2 cokes is outrageous. No quantity difference between the $15-18 B-Boxes enjoyed everywhere. But here, double the price $. My jaw hit the grown when the bill arrived.

We had not been there in a couple of years and were astounded at the huge price increase. Not sure we will return. The sushi was reasonably priced, but not terrific.
