Food was great! Service was quick and friendly and our chef (Randy) was amazing. He kept the kids entertained, joked, and cooked a great meal. We will be back next time we are in town.

It was good. These places are all pretty similar with the same dishes. Had the steak shrimp and lobster and enjoyed eating it. The presentation started off strong then the guy just kind of stopped engaging with us. Still a new restaurant so maybe working out the kinks.

I like it, it's different. The food is very good, the rolls are average. Parking is easy. And wait time more than reasonable.
This is the new location in Renton, they've done a great job in transforming the old Shari's into a place of their own.The wife and I showed up a half hour early for a party of 14, we were hoping to have a couple of cocktails and sushi rolls before everyone arrived. But because this location has no bar seating and they refused to seat us until our entire party was present they missed out on making what could have been another $60 dollars plus tips. It was disappointing, but now we know there's no point in showing up early to this location.Everything else was just great!

food didn’t really have much flavor and my new york steak and shrimp were ok but nothing to brag about and my new york steak looked like a very cheap cut of meat it seems like this restaurant isn’t about quality they are about saving money and i ordered the yokisoba with chicken and the noodles were not good. maybe some lower quality noodles and it costed $30 which is double what i pay by my house and is mush better noodles and very good flavor. sorry for being honest.

Overall, I thought this place was meh. It felt like the restaurant is not ready to operate and serve customer because the wait line is too long, unprofessional server, the worst thing is the restaurant was so damn smoky.We were here on Saturday night, excited for celebrating birthday dinner but it turned out to be a terrible experience. The service is very unprofessional, she forgot our appetizer even we waited for almost an hour she also forgot to bring out the soup n salad.We have never been to a restaurant with very smoky that we had trouble to breathe and our eyes feel like burning. For the price that we paid, we expected a lot more.This restaurant is not ready to open! Save your time fellas!

I won’t be back- service was terrible. If you haven’t been to this type of restaurant you are seated with anyone to fill the table. The party of 4 that came about 20min after we had got there got their salad and soup before we did even though we had just ordered. I thought maybe it was a mistake they had given it to them and they didn’t even order food yet. But no we waited another 10-15 min after and received it. Miso soup was not good not traditional with the tofu just had some mushrooms in it and salad was drenched with dressing. The sun was blinding the other party and asked if they could put the blind down, which was a reasonable request. They didn’t even have blinds to pull down, you would think they would have had this issue before and put some blinds there. So they offered them to move to another table. Which meant we ALL had to move. We had our appetizers and had already been situated, kind of an inconvenience but okay we move. After we had been there for over an hour they finally bring out the chef to cook the food in front of us. Again.. the other party got served before us. At this point we’d been there so long my husband had to leave because he had an appt to get to. And for the food- it ALL tasted the same. Like soy sauce drenched meat. I rate the food a 1 ⭐️ just like the service. For the price you pay you’d think it would taste better or at least have better service. Not to mention the floor felt dirty and slippery like it had oil or something?

Food was delicious, service was good, and the chef was entertaining.
We brought our family here last night for our twins 21st birthday. The new restaurant is beautiful inside. Our server was great, we ordered gyoza, spring rolls, and crab Rangoon as appetizers and all were very delicious. Our Chef was Randy and he was so much fun, he kept the entire table engaged and our food turned out excellent! They were short a chef last night, which was communicated to us. However our dinner flow was perfect. We didn't feel rushed and they were brief pauses in between courses which was perfect for our family. We loved our dinner last night and look forward to coming back again soon!

I really like the new location, and the staff was on their game. I will say, I wasn’t a fan of the new sauce on the rice and chicken… it was a teriyaki sauce or something. Other than that - awesome!!!Parking: I am a little worried about parking just because the old parking lot was HUGE, and now it’s shared with a hotel. But hopefully it’ll be fine!
Wonderful experience! The food was amazing, and so much of it!

I wanted to love this place so much! But was heavily disappointed.It was my first time ever going to a place that cooks your food in front of you, I was really excited and heard a lot of good reviews of this place so we went ahead and tried it.First impressions it's so beautiful, clean and modern inside, lots of room. Parking is great, lots of space! We got seated fast with amazing customer service, the servers were friendly and attentive.But when it came to the food is was okay, nothing was spectacular or blew our minds , we got the deal with for two people. Got chicken and steak , salad and soup. Everything tasted a bit salty , the chef was new so the performance and show wasn't great, you could tell it was his first time and he was nervous, so it was a bit awkward and quiet when other people joined us as well. For what we paid for we expected a lot more out of the chef and food.Also they automatically charge the tip onto your bill, doesn’t matter if it’s just 2 of you. So make sure you come in with right amount of money.We probably wouldn't go back again.

?????? Don’t bother coming, seriously. This is more than just an online rant. I’m sitting in my seat after having waited one full hour. I’ve asked for their manager and they say he’s not here. I asked for them to call their manager. There’s still two more tables to cook for, and estimated another hour before we’d be served. They’re unprepared, overbooked, they blame one staff member for not showing up today, but it’s more like they’re missing an entire team. Save your time, this restaurant isn’t ready. This is an entirely unprofessional experience. I came here to celebrate my child, this event was ruined by their lack of preparation.
