BEST HIBACHI IN NORTHWEST ARKANSAS!!! ♥️♥️♥️⭐️⭐️⭐️👑 LET’S GO CHIEFS ^S^

$112 for two people which is fine if everything else is good but no such luck.. mediocre food..The 21 yo bartender needs to train the rest of the staff.. She was the best service we saw.. Our japanese hibachi cook was a Mexican that didn't speak much English.. which is fine at a Mexican restaurant... Gave two stars for the bartender and architecture. We will not be back

If you hate on this place I will find you. It's good every single time. The chefs are so hilarious it's unreal. Best tricks, best foods, best service and I SWEAR if I see ONE MORE NEGATIVE REVIEW I WILL CRASH OUT.
Best miso soup I've ever had
Thanks!

The food, server, and experience were pretty good. The chef was entertaining as well, but there was one specific thing that really just about ruined it for me. I honestly wanted to leave, but I didn’t want to embarrass my boyfriend. It really really bothered me that the chef kept touching his hat, his bandana, his mouth, and stroked his goatee and then cracked the eggs over the rice directly after without washing his hands first. I just did my best to carry on with the meal after that as best as I could, but it grossed me out.

Our host and hostess were lovely. They were very accurate on the wait time and were very pleasant.
The server forgot our straws, even after we asked for them because she didn't have any left in her apron (i had to ho get them for the entire table from the bar), forgot our appetizer until the end of the meal when we reminded her for a second time, forgot the steamed rice and my 4 yr oldest food until we were nearly done, our soup and salad was brought out after the noodles were already on our plates, got my order wrong, refused to hand me the check when I held my hand out for it and instead took it to my husband who was trying to get up to use the restroom and had his back to her, then again refused to set the to-go containers with me when I had my hands out for them and instead set them in my husband's spot.... when he was not even at the table.
The Hibachi chef was wonderful. He included the entire table, he was the right mix of professional and funny, my 4 yr old loved him, excellent service.
The food was.... not my favorite. Even the sauces were a little bland this time. I watched the seasonings go in. It looked right. And I don't know who makes the sauces... but it just didn't hit that mark this time.
And there you have it.
It's worth going still. It's fun.
We'll go back.
But if we have another experience like this one.... that price tag will just not be worth it any more.

Steak was old. We smelled it when they rolled out the hibachi cart. Salmon was mid. Overcooked. Vegetables and fried rice were good. Kenta was the only entertaining guy in the house and he was awesome. Dirty bathrooms, sticky floors and prices plus service fees ridiculous. Won’t return unless they open cliff side seating byob. Very disappointing. Represents Fayetteville poorly.

I desperately wanted to love this place. It had been recommended by a lot of locals but I was a little disappointed.

The food was good, but not what I'd expect from the price points. The cooks seem to rely more on heat or salt for flavor than any skill. The sushi rolls were shoddy and fell apart the minute they were picked up. The bento box was good but the fried foods were more soggy than I'd expect even considering the time it took to pick up and get to my house.

I didn't sit down or go beyond the front desk. The few staff I did interact with seemed very kind and friendly.

Beautiful place. Love the booths. We (family of 4) were sat pretty fast considering how busy they were but the food is just nothing special. The prices are outrageous for the food quality. It's food. It's very soy saucy, salty but also bland. We won't be back. The Japanese/Asian food trucks are far better for far less money. Best thing was the spring rolls but $12 for 5 tiny spring rolls is crazy.

Just tried this location again for the first time in a while and remembered why I never go there. The host was curt, service was fairly good, and the restaurant looks nice; but the food was terrible. Every time I’ve gone it’s always under seasoned. This time was no different, and the sides like rice, noodles, and veggies were all undercooked, and all of the food had hardly any sauce or flavor. There was a man who was sat at our table who ordered his fried rice without any veggies and instead of making his separately, everyone’s rice was made plain without them asking the rest of us if that was okay (which to me, it isn’t). This just was not a good meal, and especially for the money it costs, it isn’t worth it. (I will note the Bentonville location is always great, this just pertains to the Fayetteville location).

Food was alright, took forever for someone to take our order then forever to bring out the cheesecake we order for dessert. Would we come back? ..... I doubt it
