Food was good but the restaurant was hot. The entertainment was underwhelming, not many fire tricks.

Alright, let's give Kurama its moment in the spotlight! While Kanki may have its loyal following, Kurama has some shining qualities of its own.First off, Kurama's food? It's like a flavor adventure waiting to happen. From their sushi rolls bursting with freshness to their teriyaki dishes that hit all the right notes, Kurama knows how to please a palate.And let's not forget about the ambiance. Stepping into Kurama is like stepping into a cozy corner of Japan, with its charming decor and inviting atmosphere making you feel right at home.But perhaps Kurama's greatest strength lies in its staff. Friendly, attentive, and always ready with a recommendation, they go above and beyond to ensure that every dining experience is a memorable one.So, while Kanki may have its perks, Kurama holds its own as a delicious destination worth exploring. Who knows? You might just find your new favorite dish hidden among its menu offerings!

The food is good but a little pricey. All hibachi places are that way but you do leave satisfied. Be mindful of their busy times because it will be a wait.Parking: It gets hard to find parking at its peak times

Staff and food are wonderful. Great place for dinner and a show.Kid-friendliness: They have two option, a share plate and a kids menu. If you expect to find chicken nuggets on the kids menu, go somewhere else. These kids version of the adult meals.

Looking for a special dinner or even entertainment for the kids....look no further.Kid-friendliness: The kids loved it. Before the big flame the chef looked to each adult for approval before doing it. Nice experience.

First time there, and I enjoyed it. I was pleasantly surprised when the chef came out to make our meal with just three people at the table! I've been elsewhere where they have you wait for a full table.

Usually i give this place(MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT) 5 stars. However, i feel like there needs to be better communication between the waiters and the cooks.

Our first time trying this hibachi place I would say, it didn’t disappoint me in the aspect of food wise, was a big difference than other hibachi which is a good thing. I had gotten an emperor dinner. My food was cooked perfect, the food was amazing and great. My chef was an amazing person, but the waitress not the best I started with one person and ended up having another person providing our drinks, waitress was not very attentive, I didn’t see any sushi in the menu which I had to even ask if they had, which then they provided a different menu just for sushi. My drinks, sushi and food was great don’t get me wrong. I just feel the waitress should be more tentative to their table. I would recommend it just because if the food and the chef. But not for the waitress and the service I got from them.
