We have been here a few times and normally it’s a great experience. We haven’t been in a few years and now the place seems understaffed and under prepared for the large parties they are accepting at the hibachi tables. We were a table of 10 with a 6:30 reservation. First when we were checking in with the hostess they kept asking if everyone was going to show up, explaining that they had limited chairs for the table and if we had 9 people that would be better…weird. Once at the table, we waited 45 minutes before our drink order was taken then at the hour mark we were asked to move to a different table because a bigger party was coming. We moved and were severed our drinks and they informed us we wouldn’t we waiting much longer for the hibachi. The hibachi didn’t start until around 8:00. Our reservation was at 6:30…. We did mention to our server that we had been waiting a while and they comped some edamame. Not sure if the chef was impaired, overwhelmed, overworked, new, or just didn’t care but was unable to provide quality food and entertainment. He threw his utensils multiple times into the plates, he cracked every egg, was unable to manage the food leaving the raw chicken, shrimp and beef in piles on the griddle and was unable to manage the different timings of the proteins ultimately severing some raw pieces. He mixed up who got what order while serving and left a huge mess all over the table as he brought the food to your plate wasting the food. As soon as the chef was finished, the server asked us if we were finished eating if we wanted to go boxes. Mind you we also had a birthday and had cupcakes in the back. As we waited for the box of cupcakes they were giving us boxes as if to rush us out. Not sure if this was an off night but after this experience we would not recommend to go for hibachi here.

I’ve been here a few times and so far every meal I’ve had has been amazing! I’ve done both the hibachi and the regular restaurant side and both were great. The hibachi chef was entertaining and funny, and the waiters and waitresses are very nice. The food is incredible! There’s tons of seating so there’s rarely a wait. This has quickly become one of my favorite local restaurants.

Came here to celebrate a 18th bday. We all did Hibachi. The chef for the evening was very entertaining. My husband and I ordered the combo meal. Good amount of scallops, fillet mignon and shrimp..but too much rice and noodle.
Sashimi is very fresh.

Just stopped by for the first time for lunch to get 3 rolls. California, Boston, and spicy crunchy tuna. All 3 were delicious!! And if all 3 basic rolls were good, than I know other items will be just as great if not better. Can't wait to go back!

Ordered 3 special rolls and salmon sashimi and hibachi supreme for 2, pretty much the best items on the menu… below average food at best

Took 20 minutes after seating before waitress came to the table to take drink orders. Chef didn’t come to the table until one hour and 15 minutes after our reservation. Chicken had no flavor wouldn’t recommend. Veggies, rice, noodles and sauces were great. No check provided so had to go to the front … apparently waitress just never dropped check off and was supposed to provide us a check at the table. Staff not that attentive. Probably won’t be back, mediocre experience. Pricing ok. Location is nice.

The hibachi room was freezing ! No heat! The filet mignon was delicious. The shrimp tasted bad. To sit in a cold room is not enjoyable in 24 degree weather. Thumbs down. No one was in the restaurant. 4 other people. Strange on a Thursday night! I have been there many times. Food is always good. But a cold room, forget it.

Great sushi, great dinners, and a great staff. I don't know what else to add... If you haven't been, go. You won't regret it.

Fusion 25 is a mixed hibachi experience. When entering the hibachi room, it is freezing cold. It may take a while for the waiters to take your order, and even longer for the chef to come out. The food is good, and decently priced. We needed to ask for sauce, which is normally provided at the start of the diner.

Went for NYE 2024 with a party of 11. The hibachi chef couldn't be more rude and miserable - I'm not sure why he has this job. We were never offered water when we sat down. Then when we finally asked for water it took 20 minutes. The hibachi chef splashed sizzling hot water on my husband because he was in such a rush. The most stressful dinner I've ever been to! We were rushed in and out in 1 hour. Waiters never came back to ask if we wanted more drinks. I'm so irritated they included gratuity in their check - I would have left ZERO.
