The sever at the bar will never serve us she will see us come in and just sit down and won’t help us we came in several times and still no service I’m not sure if it’s because of color but we have always tipped good and have respect but if any other people sit down she will quickly get up from her seat and help them but if I come in she will disregard me completely. I will never come back to this place ever again this is bad business.

I have experience racism Several time at the bar, the bartender young Japanese girl who do not serve Black people she sat there, looked at us and started laughing for 30 minutes. But when two white young woman came at the bar she started to serve them. I will never ever go here again. I felt uncomfortable.

Terrible experience with the owner.
I felt completely disrespected and even targeted. The owner’s behavior was aggressive and uncalled for. There is no excuse for treating customers this way. I will never return, and I recommend others avoid this place until serious changes are made.

The owner was extremely rude and disrespectful during our visit. Instead of listening to our concerns, he was thinking about his business and money he also raised his voice and acted unprofessionally. We were shocked by the way we were treated. I would not recommend supporting a business that treats customers this way. We found a bug on the food he confirmed that it was a bug and and he said he will took my friend plate but no us after we told him him it wasn’t right because the food was made together he decided to make a offer that he will make 2 more plate for us we told him the food was contaminated that we don’t want to eat there😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩😩

I had a super awkward and frustrating experience here with friends and family when we ended up visiting on a random Sunday for lunch... Let me also preface this by saying that it pains me to leave bad reviews because I used to work in the restaurant business as well and understand that it's not an easy job. The strangeness started when we seated and went to look for our orders, we were immediately asked two times within 5 minutes by the same waitress if we were ready to look at our orders and we both had to say that we needed some more time with the menu because we were coming with kids who are getting settled and we didn't get a chance to look at the menu, which elicited an eye roll and a huff and puff from our waitress. When we got to placing our orders, I tried asking our server about most popular dishes and or any suggestions and she very quickly waved off the question and interrupted me by saying that everything was good without specifically offering any particular dish to help answer my question. I asked three times in various ways for a specific dish that might be interesting for us to try and she again offered the exact same answer as if I didn't hear it the first time. So that's fine, I chose based on a combination of randomness and how interesting the name of the sushi roll sounded. When the food ended up coming out, we were short a sushi roll order as well. I gave it some time for the orders to roll out and basically everyone at the table got their order except for us and when I asked about the status of the extra roll she told me that nothing was placed, despite the 2 to 3 minute fiasco about fishing for a recommendation. I was okay with placing the same order about 30 minutes into our lunch, and the sushi roll ended up coming out quite soon after. The food itself though, was quite disappointing and a little bland despite carrying hefty prices for small to medium sized sushi rolls. When we went to pay our bill, we had to look around for a waiter to offer us the check, which required another five minutes for someone to come out from the back to notice our table looking around. I can't remember the exact bill but it ended up being a little over $50 and probably closer to $80, and for such disappointing service and food, I left about $5 in tip which is absolutely not a good tip but a baseline considering how our experience went. As we were leaving the restaurant and buckling in our little one into a car seat, we were surprised to find our waitress flagging us down and walking up next to us in the parking lot with our bill in hand asking if we were Asian (I kid you not), and asking about us increasing the tip for the service she provided which was shocking for how pushy, dismissive, then absent she was during our meal. You be the judge, it's not great leaving such a poor tip nor a poor comment, but there really needs to be justification to get to the 18%+ tip or good reviews that are often expected at establishments, but this felt regrettably necessary. If you're going to come here, it seems like the hibachi is the way to go based on reviews (which we did not get to try), not a regular table.

We arrived around 5:30pm and were seated right away. The hibachi was decent. They also had kid’s hibachi. What we really enjoyed was Godzilla roll, which was very delicious. We will definitely come back here to try non-hibachi menus.

Back in May, we went the night before my wedding, and it was near closing time, so the hibachi guy gave us the most half-assed performance I’ve ever seen. He was seething the entire time. Then my friend, who was paying, gave the place such a generous tip the manger came out and personally thanked him. It was an odd evening.
