The service was great. We went there for my birthday and they took a picture and printed for us and put it in a nice paper frame.

The food was good and the chef was nice. They actually seasoned the food so it was great.

The waitress was polite, friendly and efficient.

There is plenty of parking right in front of the restaurant.

Great spot for Hibachi food and ambiance. This place has a solid operation for delivering that legacy hibachi experience. Some of the furniture and decor is old looking, but does it really matter? Depending on the chef, you get more or less enthusiasm during the cooking. Expect the flames and smoke.

Serves sushi, hibachi, and some booze!

We had a full table. Even though the food was good, the chef gave the men really big portions and the woman had really small portions. I did not like that since I was paying for my meal that was not complete.
