The AC was not working and the hibachi service was not great. I called ahead and made reservations and made them aware that it was the birthday of someone in my party to which they said they would have a cake and photo for $12 more. They never brought out the cake or took our photo. I asked for a cold sake since it was sweltering in there. They brought me hot sake and I made them aware that I ordered cold sake. They still charged me for the hot sake and I didn't notice until I left because I was in such a rush to leave that hot place. Gratuity is already included so that would make sense as to why the hibachi chef did a subpar job. Needless to say, I will not be returning.

The food here was delicious! The servers took a while once we sat down to get a drink order in (about fifteen minutes) but after that was very attentive. We went there for my birthday and gave us a lava cake and a photograph for $12.95.
The atmosphere was good, lots of people were there and they had someone playing piano. I would go back again!

The experience at Daruma Japanese Steakhouse and Sushi Lounge was just okay. The food was standard, but the yum yum sauce didn't quite measure up to what I've enjoyed at other hibachi restaurants. The hibachi show was below average, lacking the usual flair and excitement. To top it off, the A/C was broken, which made the dining experience less comfortable. Overall, it was a decent meal, but I expected more.

Large groups can be challenging for some staffs, but not here! Drinks stayed full, food was on time & our tribe had an entertaining experience!

Fun place! Food was good. The chef at the table was very nice. Only complaint was it took 45 min from our reservation time to get started. Other than that, it was good. Will be back. Meal for two was $105 + tip.

It was our 16th year anniversary and my husband made a reservation for Habachi, and they try to fit 9-10 random people in one table, the other people are literally on top of one another. We asked to move and told the guy in the front that it was uncomfortable and too many people in one table and he didn’t say a word but grabbed 2 menus and laid it on the other table with the same amount of people, so we left. With the price they charge you should not have to eat with a stranger practically on your lap. He didn’t even acknowledge what we were telling him, so rude!
Had a great date night! Food and atmosphere were great. Our chef did a phenomenal job. Our server was a bit lazy frankly. She forgot my rice after bringing it to someone else at my table and then was rude when I asked for it. My wife asked for some sauce to go and was brought 2. Prior to handing them to my wife someone else asked for some and she just gave her one of my wife’s and never offered more. Tacky and lazy. Would’ve been 5-star otherwise.

We had a party of 5 ate at the hibachi. 2 in our party ordered sushi for dinner and did not get anything to eat until after they were done cooking and we all were already eating. I had to remind them twice. I had to keep getting up and going to the bar asking them to refill our drinks. They had a 50 dollar tip figured in which we did not dispute however I did write on the receipt horrible service good food. The manager confronted us in front of the whole table trying to defend the amount of the tip. I told him I wasn’t disputing the tip but I thought you should know the service was terrible. Completely unprofessional and rude. We will not be back again. 300 bill to be treated so rude!! It’s not what it used to be!! Go to another Japanese restaurant there are a lot of great ones in town. We
Came here for a celebration because it used to be nice.

Daruma's is just the best hibachi I've ever had! We always try a hibachi restaurant on each vacation with my family, and none ever beat Daruma's!
