Food was good. Chef was decent. Hostess was rude as f--k.I took the family there and I have 8 year old little girls that are very friendly and out going and they love sushi. So when the hostess was seating us the girls were excited about sushi and was asking if they had sushi and for some reason this irritated the hostess and she made a comment about my kids being entitled. She was also load and obnoxious, bragging about how they have the best fried rice in town and how she does her own laundry. This woman is obviously angry because I really don't think her business is doing all that great. We were literally the only ones there. The place was dirty. The vent above the cook surface was disgustingly greasy. The counter surface around the cook top was a laminated particle board that absorbed some of the grease from the cook top and it was black and disgusting. It was also very dark, most likely because the ceiling was stained with grease. I give the place 2 stars because of the food and the chef's. They are what you would typically see at a hibachi restaurant.

So fun! Great service, workers were very kind and upbeat. Great spot for a celebration, we went for a bday and got some fun bday treatment. I'm giving 4 stars because like may of the reviews say, they do try to up-charge you here. Suggesting many different things on the menu, when you don't realize that you'll actually have to pay more - so heads up there. They also do charge for water. But the food was delicious. The chef put on the show for us. I was full when it was done. It was pretty empty on a Saturday afternoon, only one other table filled. Chill ambiance, nothing fancy but it is pricier. I'd come back just for the fun and kind service, & fried rice!

$187 for two adults and a toddler. Food is not good. The owners are very dishonest. They charge for everything and don't bother to mention it. Not sure how they are even in business. We walked into an empty resturaunt with no lights on. They didn't bother to turn it on while we dined.

Stopped in for dinner after a Tuesday at Six Flags.There was one party getting ready to leave, other than that, we were it. There seemed to be only two people working as well, the Hibachi chef, and the Sushi chef. Typical Hibachi /Sushi menu, however on the hibachi side it seemed that we got smaller portions that at other restaurants. Soft drinks are cans (no refills) and water was bottles from Costco at $3 ea. The staff was very friendly and attentive, especially since there weren't any other customers in the building. While the decor is "traditional ", the space itself could really use some upkeep and cleaning. The range hoods over the cooktops were greasy, and the ceiling vents were dark grey/ black, and desperately needed cleaning. Many of the ceiling tiles had water stains, and just had a dingy appearance. If I'm ever back in the area I'd try a different place if going for Hibachi.

DON'T DO IT! Wish I'd have read reviews first. No water available unless you want to purchase it. 20% service charge that there is zero warning of anywhere in the restaurant (I'd have walked out). When I asked about it I got a sob story of how that's how they pay their employees and they can't keep staff. Not sure why that's the customers problem. Sounds like the cost of doing business. If you can't afford to pay your staff appropriately then don't have a restaurant. I hope my 20% service fee was worth losing a customer forever. I feel totally taken advantage of.

I have never been a customer here, I will never be a customer here. I called and posed a simple question, "Do you have all you could eat sushi? The man said YES! Then a female snatched the phone from him and I asked her the same question. Apparently he did not understand English but he decided to say yes anyway. All I could hear at that point is her yelling at him and asking him why he's answering questions if he does not understand them. I had to hang up the phone because all I was hearing was yelling and nobody was speaking to me. The same Hispanic woman called me back within 2 minutes to say, these were her words, "You didn't have to be so rude and fucking hang up on me!". Then she hangs up on me like a little coward after cussing me out. This woman is definitely not an owner and I hope to God that the owner is reading these posts on Yelp and on Google that your staff is destroying your business. There are far too many restaurants in the area to ever have to rely on feeding yourself at this one, do not do it.

John was wonderful! Our meal was great. And the kids loved the hibachi performance. It made for a fun evening and ask for John for great service.

$188 for two meals, rude service, run down interior. Empty restaurant, I understand why now. I would not recommend this place and definitely will not return.

Rip Off. your bill will be WAY higher than expected. They up-charge for every basic thing and don't even mention it. The portions are really small considering the price you end up paying. They tack on a 20% tip and then tell you to add extra specifically for the chef. They will nickel and dime you until the price is completely unreasonable. My guess is that they don't have any repeat business. Too bad, because the food was actually decent.
