“Great place if you’re looking for a good show when eating Hibachi. Forgot the cook the chicken for my mother in law and didn’t bring out plates or utensils when we sang happy birthday to my daughter. The bill made it to the table before they brought a knife to cut the cake. Overall a good experience though.“

“First off, sorry for this long review, but I feel that I need to let everyone know about this.... I've been considering all week long where I wanted to eat on Friday since I don't have my daughter with me, and I have an opportunity to try something out of the norm. Sushi was the thing I kept going back to, and I wanted an AYCE place...there are only two that I'm aware of. The decision came down to the Korean BBQ, so I chose Bushido. It was my very first time here, so I had no idea what I was getting into. When I walked in, it was still a little early, and the hostess was sweet and showed me to my seat, so it started off really well. My server, Alleah came and did the whole introduction thing. She asked if I'd been before, so I explained that I had not. When I tell you this young lady went into helpful mode like I had never experienced before. She immediately made me feel comfortable asking the questions that I had. She asked questions about my tastes, and she helped me by recommending things that would best suit what I liked. She did not miss. Every single thing she recommended was top-notch. She was on top of things, and I felt like she was attentive to me, and that was welcomed since I had never done an AYCE sushi place. I expected the food to arrive at a slower pace due to it being sushi, however everything I ordered came out quick, and fresh. One example of how helpful she was....I ordered Korean BBQ for the first time ever. I was not expecting that amazing setup...I thought you just get meat! You get a whole experience! She brought it to me and explained everything that was on the plate. She told me different ways people enjoy eating it, from just the meat, to just rice and meat, to full on lettuce wraps. I went all the way and it blew my mind how good it was! Now, during one of the times I was ordering, I felt adventurous on trying raw sushi for the first time. Alleah explained to me that she is too scared to try it, but she encouraged me to step out of my safe zone. She said she could not recommend based on taste, but she said if I wanted something that's not a big portion to start, and that looked less like raw fish, to try the spicy tuna roll. When it arrived, I tried it and it was OK...but I feel like that's going to be an acquired taste for me. I ate two pieces and she checked up on me to see how I was handling it. I asked for spicy mayo to help me get the consistency and the different taste to a place where I enjoyed it...and she was on top of it. The coctail I had was phenominal, every single thing I ate was absolutely crushing my expectations (with the exception of the raw sushi attempt, but that's on me to overcome...it was good on the restaurant's part) all the way to Alleah telling me I could not come without trying the fried oreos....and again, she hit 100% on it. I never....ever write any reviews, but I feel it needs to be known that you guys have an absolute superstar of a server in Alleah! She won me over and made my expereince one that I will not forget and more importantly, one that I will talk to a lot of people about. I will come again for the food, the coctails...and to try sushi, and I hope that my next visit, Alleah is on shift and is my server again! Thank you all of the experience!“

“Abby, our waitress was the absolute best!! It was our first trip, definitely won’t be the last. The food was sooo good and kept us full. If you go there you won’t be disappointed. There’s something for everyone, even picky eaters like me. I’d 100 percent ask for Abby, and made our trip, our meal, and my birthday!! Thanks again Abby for constantly checking on us throughout the meal even though you had many other tables, you made us feel like your only customers!“
