I overheard that one of the inspectors from the Alcohol Beverage control asked their server if they had RBS training as it is a requirement for every server in CA, and the server has no idea at all of what the inspector is talking about and answered that their Manager didn’t say anything about it. Personally I am a server too that’s why I know the importance of the training. Setting aside that fact, our server seems new to the job, messed up our orders and the chinese manager didn’t do anything about. The food is fine. But paying for its price and the quality of service is not worth it.

Excellent food. A bit pricey but still much better than Benihanas. I loved it all. It was a fun time for the family. I highly recommend!Kid-friendliness: Great for the entire family or great for any couples or to go out with friends...it's a win! Excellent place to have a great time.

Shogun Tepanzaki Restaurant in San Marcos is an excellent special restaurant. They are large and contain about 9 grills. Our cook was excellent and very experienced. The food and the preparation was plentiful and flawless. They also have a small sushi bar or you can get a roll whine at the grill. Pricrs are high but normal and we will definitely return when in the area.

We hadn't been there in four years. It used to be a typical Japanese sushi place but now it's turned into a frumpy Benni Hanna! There are no private tables. It's all eating in the round and the chef comes out and cooks everyone's separately ordered food at the same time and passes it out. You will have to sit with people you don't know unless you come as a group. Entree's are very overpriced for the amount of food you get. It was $35 for 6 scallops,dry steamed rice,cheep small portion of stir fry vegetables,lame miso soup and a one ingredient small side salad. When cooking those large scallops, the chef then cut them into quarter size pieces! I guess it's to make it look like a ample portion, but that's ruines the joy and concept of having large scallops in the first place! I was horrified! My half size Alaska roll was very small and skimpy. I was the only one at the table that didn't get an "entertainment meal". I ordered the sashimi salad. It wasn't brought to me until everyone else was nearly finished with their food. The pieces of fish were minimal and the "vinegaret dressing" was hideous looking paste color glop. I didn't use or try it, of course. It was also very cold in the place, which was surprising as they have the hot cooking going on right near you. A very unpleasant experience. Never going back.

Stumbled across this restaurant. The food is wonderful and the chef that cooked ours was great and entertaining. As the meal was winding down so did the service. Our waitress took my card to run it and didn't come bacj for over 12 minutes and she didnt have my bill. She assisted the other group sitting with us. There were 3 in our group and 3 in the other group. No one else were in the restaurant. After 9 minutes she finally came out with our processed bill. I will go back because of the excellant food and hoping the service will remain good till the end.

Great place. The food was good. Our chef was funny, but by the time he got to person number 4, person 1's food was cooling off. Serving everyone at once with hot food would be better...

Terrible service and communication leading up to being seated. Food was good enough not great and the wait was long. Horrible drink and bad bartender attitude (there wasn't one not sure who it was). Understaffed.
