Came here with our family to celebrate my birthday after hearing about new management recently. What a fun (and delicious) event! The portions were huge and the food was outstanding. Our 6 and 7 year olds loved the show and are still talking about it. The staff went out of their way to make my birthday feel special - very good service. Come here for your next special dinner, definitely worth a visit!Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu!

Do not let the Google review average score dissuade you. The restaurant formerly known as Tokyo Steakhouse is under new ownership but still using the old Google my business page. New owners have taken over the old space and are renovating the restaurant while keeping it open and transitioning to a newer menu. They are still maintaining the teppanyaki style dining experience. Make sure you look at the new menu/webpage since things have changed some.Their signature experience at $98 per person per adult may seem steep, but they gave very large portions and a full rounded meal starting with a house salad, a soup and sharable full-sized appetizer of your choice. It comes with three protein options of your choice, house vegetables, white rice and a dessert of your choice. I would recommend upgrading to the fried rice for $5 more per person.The lobster option is at least an 8 oz tail. The scallops were large and about the same in overall weight. The New York strip came out in healthy portions as well. The steaks, including the filet cut was cooked perfectly as ordered. For the kids menu, they offer chicken, shrimp or steak. The steak that they offer the kids is a New York strip that the adults get.While only open for dinner service currently, management stated that they were trying to be open for lunch this summer and with an outside patio. They are also attempting to do non-Teppanyaki dining options or people can order regular food from the kitchen.TLDR: Under new ownership, disregard existing 3.7 rating by old owners using old google my business page. Quality has increased. Great options for celebrations, families, and fun date night.Parking: 3 hour free parking in the parking garageKid-friendliness: Like any teppanyaki restaurant it's a great dinner and show for the entire family, especially the kids.Wheelchair accessibility: The garage and the restaurant are wheelchair accessible by elevator.

We were greeted and seated right away. When the server came over she asked what kind of water we wanted. Did not mention that there would be an additional charge, and we found out at the end that we were charge $9 for a single glass of “mineral water “ (just a bottle of Fiji Water). She did not ask if we wanted anything else to drink so when she came back to take our order we had to ask for the other beverages that we wanted. We ordered Sushi and Hibachi. The sushi was fresh and very good. It was a nice presentation as well. The chef then came out to prepare our hibachi. The “show “ was bare minimum and it was really hard to hear him over the grill fan. We have been to several hibachi restaurants as it is one of our favorite types of meals and this one was mediocre at most. The hibachi food itself was not seasoned very well, even though we watched him put seasoning on the food. Overall it was not worth the $130 we paid for 2 of us for lunch ( they only had dinner pricing even though we were there when they opened at noon). This is not a restaurant I would encourage friends and family to go to as there are far better Hibachi places in the area that have better food, shows and service.

Didn't get seated until nearly an hour after our reservation despite open tables everywhere. Took 45 minutes after seating to get a beer. Would've left before the server arrived if not for my belief that they would screw up refunding my credit card charge for booking. Food was fine once it arrived 2.5 hours after the reservation time.

Poorly planned reservations and timing. They were severely understaffed - even their chefs had to serve. There were several issues that night: We had a booking for 7:30 pm and got the actual table ~8:15 pm. One couple at our table had a reservation at 7 pm. After getting to the table, we had to wait approx 20 minutes to be served and get even water to the table. One couple left as they were sick of waiting. During the meal, they forgot rice for the whole table - one diner had to specifically ask before they started asking everyone if we still wanted ours. The first drink was great but the second one was poor (margaritas for me and my girlfriend). The food was good (lobster and filet mignon). Dessert was decent. While the rose to the better half was a good touch, the servers themselves were nice and apologetic, but ultimately it didn't help to make the experience better. Unfortunately, would not recommend it.

The reservation was for 7:30pm and we didn't get seated until 8:30pm and then 9:30pm before we had our dinner started. Management didn't even come by to apologize for delay or provide any discount.

We were seated at 7:45 for our 7PM Valentine's Day reservation. The group of people that were seated at 7:30 still had no drinks, so we left at 8PM and found dinner nearby. There is no excuse for this type of management and ruining our Valentine's Day dinner. Also, just so everyone knows, you will be sitting with a group of folks for dinner and it won't be a table for two.
Rebecca
The service here left SO much to be desired. The lack of Teppanyaki chefs was a significant issue that went unaddressed. A complimentary round of drinks or appetizers would have been appreciated during our wait. Unfortunately, we experienced neglect at our table for nearly an hour while we waited and waited and waited. Additionally, after our meal, we waited another half hour for dessert. When it arrived, the cheesecake was served with cardboard still attached to its base. Utensils were not provided, even after we requested them. On Valentine's Day, this level of service was particularly disappointing!

We are kind of hesitant at first because of the past review but read the new ones that had a great experience and mentioned about the new management. It is indeed the best Hibachi place we've ever been here in WA. We went there for my birthday, and even we r only 2 person. They have us seated and start the food for us without having to wait for any more people. Which was really great! The chef is so entertaining and cooked our steak, chicken,shrimp and lobster in perfection. Well seasoned and the steak melts in your mouth kond of tender.The server always check up on , and ask if we need anything. Very polite and attentive staff. I find the need to review this place as i know the 3.7 reviews was from the past but can make a customer hesistant. This place with the new management deserves nothing but 5 starts.

I came here with a group of my closest friends to celebrate two of our birthdays. We truly had a 10/10 experience from the moment we were greeted at the door. The food is delicious and fresh and the experience between the chef and my group was absolutely phenomenal! He was so skilled, enthusiastic and charming. Such a great experience. We are all excited to come back and have not stopped telling friends, family and coworkers it's a must have experience in the Seattle area. Thank you for making my birthday so special. 
A good place to go for a birthday. Food portion was slim for the price. The fried rice was hard and undercooked. Too much soy sauce. The griddle we were at was burnt so all the food had a burnt taste to it, not because the chef overcooked it but because it was a burnt griddle. There's a clear black/brown burnt stain.

The servers and cooks are great but way under staffed. We go regularly and enjoy the service and staff, but they need more help. The restaurant was full and wasn't staffed for the capacity.

Great little spot for celebrations! They made it super fun for our birthday girl with singing, a birthday cake shot and some icecream. The service was fantastic and they were very accommodating.

This place is now under new management by Wild Wasabi. It is a perfect place for my family since one kiddo likes steak and the other one likes sushi. Their sushi is awesome and teppanyaki is also very fun. This time, we had their wagu which just melted in my mouth!! We would come back for sure!
