Be prepared to spend on average around 25-35 per person. The food is excellent, consistently good , and the service is always excellent. I would recommend making reservations as this is a very popular place, especially on the weekends. Excellent as always!

Quite several options for meats/side dishes. Taste was good. Price was a little bit on the higher sides. Good place to visit if you want to taste a little bit of wide varieties.

Dined in as a large group for a friends birthday! The food was decent! Drinks were the best!However I rated the service poorly just based off the fact that at the end of our night our waitress accused someone of walking out on their bill. The waitress brought out two checks at a time, the first two people paid and left while others waited. One of those two people paid cash in their check and handed the waitress the black book and left. The waitress comes back and says there’s no money in the book. After a while of arguing with the waitress and their manager, we requested they check their cameras as we all witnessed this person place cash in that check book. After a while the manager comes back, DOES NOT apologize but confirmed that our person did pay and hand the waitress the check book. No apology and no explanation with what the waitress did with that money. Poor experience and a bit embarrassing to go through that. Will never go back! If you go, don’t pay cash they like to pocket it.

We ordered the meat lovers combo. Very disappointed. All meats are covered in sauce which takes away from tasting the actual quality of the meat. Lots of food but all very low quality! Will not

My husband and I visited this restaurant for the first time. Having been to Gyukaku in Japan several times, I was excited to try this place. The interior of the restaurant is beautiful and the high ceiling makes it feel spacious. All the tables are black and there are three types of dipping sauces on each table. On the side of the table, there was a poster that showed how to cook the meat, which was very helpful. The meats are available with sauce or just salt and pepper. The thinly sliced meat was especially delicious. Additionally, a large bowl of white rice was served.I was very satisfied and will definitely visit again!

I had seen posts by friends who love this place so we tried it. We love asian food and Hibachi experiences so we were excited to try it out! Well for us it was one and done. We felt rushed. We felt the food was average at best. No sauce recommendations were made. Every few minutes the server ran to the table to drop off a few different items with a quick and brief explanation and cook time and then ran off. The one time I was able to stop her to ask questions she stood with he back toward me, looking over her shoulder, poised to run off as quickly as possible. For us (2 people)a $100 plus dining experience should feel more pampering. We each had one cocktail. We enjoyed the Salad and the beef sukiyaki plus the beef teriyaki, the rest was meh. I was tired of cooking by the end. Not the place for me.

This was like a grill your own meat TGI Friday. The seating is painfully close together. We ordered 4 apps, the octopus fritters were gummy on the inside, and of the other 3 all had the same sauce, or some variation of it. All of it tasting exactly the same, oddly enough since they were wings, cucumber, and dumplings - all very different items. We didn't stay for our entree. Not worth it. The server, Nick, was great. He also was nice enough to discount our meal even though we didn't request this. Just not our cup of tea. If you like a loud, tightly packed chain restaurant with your own grill at the table and a limited selection of flavors on the menu, I'm sure you'll love it.

Bad service, call in for reservation at 7:15 PM. Then arrived at 7:10 PM, and they said they don't have table, and don't know how long we need to wait.
