Signage and Yelp said was open but it was closed. Need to update schedules on store front and Yelp.

Overpriced and not that good. The sushi rolls are tiny... sometimes a 40+ minute wait for them. Not worth paying for and there are many other better sushi restaurants in the area. I've also witnessed staff being a little too friendly with customers. Just not the vibe whatsoever ever.

How is this the only hibachi table in town?! There was a BIG birthday in our family that needed to be celebrated in similar fashion. We decided Konomi was in order! (And boy, did it not disappoint.) Pricing is a bit steep in my opinion -- but since it's the only one of its kind in town, it wasn't off putting. The experience, quality and portion size definitely worth it. I enjoyed the chicken and shrimp. My kiddos shared a chicken entree-- and there were even leftovers! Holy portion size. The sushi we ordered was fabulous, I'd definitely order more of that next time. The sparkling sake on the menu was both reasonably priced and tasty as you know what. Parking is a non-issue at the IRL. Staff was friendly, though I wouldn't say our waitress was super knowledgeable on menu items. PRO TIP: Call at least two weeks in advance to secure a table. They are short staffed and are only operating one or two tables at a time.

We checked this place out while on a close-to-home overnight getaway. We got there shortly after they opened and they filled up fast! We explored the menu quite a bit and found nothing we didn't enjoy. The stir-fried yakisoba noodles with shrimp were exactly the combination of flavors and crunch I was hoping for. I went with the double tuna roll. We also tried the Captain Crunch and the Kelborn. I think of the three the Captain Crunch was the most pleasantly surprising, but I'd explore more of their sushi offerings before circling back to any of these. There were many more delicious sounding options! The steamed buns were outstanding. We tried the grilled chicken and the pork belly. I would get the pork belling again but try a different option before the grilled chicken. Nothing bad about it but the flavors popped better with the pork belly. We wanted a taste of something sweet and were told about the mochi option. This is a hard to describe item but basically sorbet wrapped in a raw dough (from what I could tell). We went with the mango sorbet. We had no idea what to expect from these, but they were easy to eat and tasty bites. I think I would try them again but with a coffee next time.

Yummy! This was my first EVER experience at a sushi restaurant. I was pleased to see that they offer other selections than just seafood (yes...I know...). The chicken teriyaki roll was delicious. I should have gotten two. One roll wasn't enough. :) The edamame was the perfect appetizer.

I WISH I would have taken photos when I went to this place. It was INCREDIBLE.I came here with my wife and three close friends one night not long before the pandemic started becoming noticeable in the public eye.The bill was high, but the qualify and experience was out of this world. The way the food is skillfully made in front of you, as well as the quality of the food is sincerely outstanding.It was a night to remember, but I had so much wine I forgot to take pictures. I'd definitely come here again

Does not live up to its reputation, brought the appetizers after the entrees, and the salads last?You don't get any choice as to what the sushi combos contain, it's just what they give you. Not worth the price, I've had better at Peking buffet

We made reservations for the hibachi grill the night before. The chef was very skilled in his performance and the food tasted amazing!

Salads served after one entree. Other appetizers came and then other two entrees finally came out. The potstickers were soggy and doughy.Sushi was satisfactory. I wouldn't order the bun again. It was more like a taco.

Great vibe! Awesome servers and bartenders!

Extremely high quality sushi! I got the kelborne and captain crunch and they were both very tasty.

Oh..MG, the Shouyu ramen was amazing. The eggs were so soft. Gonna have to stop in again before the end of the weekend for some sushi rolls.

First time at a hibachi grill. It was fanatic, we waited a bit on the chef but the food and the chefs skills made up for it. The service and food were phenomenal.
