If you are willing to wait 1-2hrs every time the food is very tasty, but you still maybe hungry 1-2 hrs later after dropping $200. Also, if you are able to reserve a table you still have to wait 30 minutes to 45 minutes. Hibachi is probably a better choice.Dietary restrictions: Gluten-free options, I don't know if this is accurate (every time I leave there I have some Gluten skin and digestive issues)

Food was tasty! We ordered takeout. We did not eat inside yet. We ordered the pork tonkotsu ramen and the spicy beef ramen. Both were good. The service (Carmelo) was exceptional. I can't speak for the dine-in experience, but it was lively, with what looked like a good number of families dining on a Wednesday night. This restaurant offers Japanese BBQ which looks similar to Korean BBQ. There is a stove at the table where patrons can cook their food. I'm looking forward to doing that next time! Also, there is extensive construction on the facade across the entire strip mall. The construction did not impede or inconvenience our parking or entry to the restaurant. My ONLY complaint is the music. It was too loud both in the waiting area and inside the restaurant. I was glad to be having takeout for that reason. Still, the exceedingly friendly service left a great positive impression on us! Thanks!Parking: Mid-size lot, could get very busy at peak times. We had no trouble finding parking on a Wednesday night.

There was construction there, but I went for that all you can eat buffet. Which they said they did not have an all you can eat buffet, so I was a little disappointed so I didn’t eat there.

Fun place for lunch all you can eat Japanese BBQ. Three different levels from $58-$78, with each adding more premium meats and food available. We opted for the $58 option which is already great ? Service is friendly and attentive. The place could get busy and you may have to wait to get in so make sure you make a reservation and get there on time to guarantee a table.Tip: they limit the type of meat you can get to two per person but you can order a “double” for one kind of meat so you don’t have to order as often!Dietary restrictions: Meat heavy but they do have some vegetables you can grill.Parking: Plenty of parking ?️Kid-friendliness: They have booster chairs but be careful with kids around super hot grill area.Wheelchair accessibility: Small area with limited space for wheelchairs.
Just went back with my husband and daughter and everything was delicious! We ordered the meat variety menu for 3 people and really enjoyed it. Besides the meats, which are always superior quality (that harami beef in a pot was amazing!), I love their salad, the butter cheese corn and the spicy cucumber (we didn’t have it today because the menu had so much food, but we usually do). We’ll keep coming back because the waitstaff is always friendly and attentive, the place is very clean and well managed, the service is quick and we love the food. I definitely recommend this place whenever you find yourself hungry in Pinecrest.Vegetarian options: Salad, cheese corn, bbq vegetables, spicy cucumber, edamame, kimchi, rice, miso soup, cabbage salad, vegetable spring rolls, cheese fondue
The manager Carmelo is one if the nicest and most honest guys in Miami, no seriously. After one too many delicious Sakitinys I left my phone behind after dinner. Luckily we had made reservations and he tracked us down and called us to come pick it up. Life saver, to say the least. Really one of our favorite Sunday spots. Thanks again Carmelo. May karma be forever in your favor.
One of my top places to go if I want to have some great meat, they have great wagyu as well! I will for sure will recommend this

I enjoyed the dumplings and bean dessert that is in a pancake like fried dough shaped like a fish which I forgot the name of it but will definitely want to try it again one day. Can't show too much here but look at the menu and pick what your heart desires.

Above and beyond expectations! I can not express enough the attentiveness, cleanliness, and value of the delicious food served. Carmelo, Dean, Barto and Manuel were so attentive in making sure we received what we needed right away. It is definitely worth it and my 8 month old had a great first dining experience she was even smiling.
