Food is amazing and the servers were very attentive. We did the premium package and it was all worth it. The kids really enjoyed the beef tongue. The duck breast just melted in your mouth. There wasn't one item that we didn't savor. The matcha ice cream is to die for.

Excellent service with a tourist and family friendly atmosphere. This is a very accessible authentic experience for those who are new to Japanese food culture.

We went there our first time at a place like this. Service was really good great wait staff. The food was very very good. We had a great time here. The only downside is the ladies room is not cleaned and I went to put down the toilet seat and a leak behind it squirted me in the face I laughed though

The food itself was so delicious. What made the visit amazing was our server Polo, might be misspelling their name, but they took the time to explain to us the whole entire variety of options and kept checking in on us. Highly recommended if you want to grill your own meats, will be back for sure next visit!

If you want an authentic Japenese experience, this is it. They serve Yakiniku (Japanese BBQ) here where you cook steak, chicken, and more right at your table. You might be tempted to do one of the combos or all-you-can-eat, but it's a lot of food. We just did a steak, a chicken, an appetizer, and a drink and the price was under $60 for two. Bring a fan if you get hot. The grill is right in front of you in your table. It's a really fun place.

Great stop if you want meat, but don't want to go to a steakhouse. They have an all you can eat option. I opted to select our meats, since each plate is about 3.4 oz of meat. My partner and I shared 4 plates of meat and it was plenty for us!

WTF. We have been to many GYU restaurants and they were great. This is dirty, horrible food and and owner/manager is counting every penny in the corner ? The AYCE is very limited at this place and the quality is horrible. My wife was sick for two days after eating here. Wonder why? Our service was good.

This was mediocre quality food and the staff did not communicate with each other. Our table grill kept getting turned off by a server not assigned to us because she deemed it "too high." Then we had to flag someone else to turn it back on. Super annoying.

Went here on a recommendation and was attracted by the advertised all day happy hour. However when we got there we discovered that happy hour had finished at 6.30pm and our reservation was at 7pm.False advertising and that left a sour taste in our mouths.

The service was great! Kiana was super nice and friendly! She was very attentive! 10 out of 10! Food was also really good! Would definitely recommend!

I feel so bad for the staff here, they are at a serious disadvantage because of the equipment. The grill at our table didn’t get hot enough to cook the meat properly, so we had to leave it there longer and everything was pretty overcooked. Staff was very attentive and accommodating though. Not sure I’d go back because the food just wasn’t worth it, but everyone was working really hard to make us enjoy our time there, and that’s much appreciated.

I went here and paid 17.95 for five small pieces for short rib and 16.95 for 6 pieces of short rib, the grill is barley hot and some of the worst prices for the food your getting if you want some good bbq don't ever go here. Such a scam
