Great customer service but the food wasn’t great. We ordered and within minutes received our food which tells me it was not fresh. After having a bite you could tell the chicken was way overcooked and had been warmed up several times over. The sushi was ok, again the fish wasn’t the freshest. Cleanliness was mediocre.

Outstanding service. Today my sister and I were running on a super tight schedule. We called asking if they could prepare food so it would be ready when we sat. They did NOT disappoint! The lunch chicken hibachi was great as well as the appetizers. The location is nice and the atmosphere is nice so you can talk with who you come with! Service was above and beyond.

I've been to a lot of hibachis and I can honestly say this one was the worst. The one doing the cooking was excellent. The scallops were tough with no taste. The calamari was no good. Didn't really care for the salad dressing. The soup was the worst I've had. My husband had the stake. He said it was tuff. I did like the rice.Kid-friendliness: They included the kid's in everything they did.

I have come here 4 years in a row on my birthday, and the service we received was awful. We had asked about the salmon on the menu and received a nasty remark from our waitress wondering why we were asking about a specific salmon on the menu. Throughout our service, we were rushed, and pushed out the door. Service from the cook was great, and food was good. Waitress was completely rude, and just wanted the 18% gratitiuity added to the service of hibachi. When paying for the check, and clearly still working on paying, the waitress had come right up and asked if we were done yet. Woman walking around restaurant was in a hoody and seemed very nice, looked like she was running the place but I wish I had seen her again to address the rudeness of the server. This is unfortunate because this used to be a great place, not sure if we will be returning due to service.

It's gone downhill recently. The avocado has been brown in the sushi rolls.

The bartender was chill. She was cool, and attentive while aiding my sushi selection.

It was our first time going to a hibachi restaurant and sitting at an actual hibachi table costs 18% more, so we sat at a normal table, but you could still see flames and hear the joy of others, which was pretty cute. They had the birthday song go off twice while we were there. Quite a fun crowd, but the table we sat at felt surprisingly quiet and private. Loved every minute.The waitress saw us struggling to know what to order, so she recommended a double hibachi plate, where you get two different types of meat on just one hibachi order, and to get appetizers on the side. We got lobster and filet mignon hibachi in addition to crab rangoons, pot stickers, and shrimp dumplings- shumai. The lobster was disappointing and rubbery, very glad we only got one portion of it. Everything else was fantastic. My husband was not a fan of the shumai, said they were too mushy and flavorless, I liked them dipped in the sauce each bite. I did not particularly like the pot stickers, but he loved them. The crab rangoons were crunchy and robust and delicious. The filet mignon was incomprehensibly fantastic. I cannot express clearly enough how exquisite the filet mignon was. I used to be vegetarian, but Culver's burgers and my husband's cooking converted me away from that about 10 years ago. But eating Kinjo's filet mignon made me weep for the vegetarians who will never experience the joy of meat, much less the pure ecstasy of Kinjo's exquisitely prepared meat marshmallows. Biting into their hibachi filet mignon was like biting into a little piece of happiness and heaven. We had them cooked to medium. I am a "cook it until it has no moo" kind of gal, but filet mignon on medium was divine.I even ate their purple carrot and orchids. Wow, so tasty. And so beautiful.It was an incredible experience. And as soon as we got home and grabbed our mail, we saw a coupon for $10 off $60. We spent $62. RIP. This was a once in a decade experience for us and our budget was $60, so if we'd had the coupon we would have gotten a dessert, oh well. If you have the coupon and are wondering if it's worth it, absolutely 100%. If you don't have the coupon, come on in anyway, it was delightful and worth every penny!

I’m writing this as I sit in this restaurant finishing my drink. Our waiter is looking at us aggressively with impatience. He has been doing this the entirety of our visit here tonight. I feel uncomfortable and I will never return here. I brought a friend after a wonderful first visit but we will never be back. The restaurant is not busy. We are one of two tables. There is absolutely no reason for this behavior. Oh, also be aware that all hibachi has an automatic 20% tip added.

This was my second time there. The first time was much better but I got the impression there was only one Hibachi chef so the food was not as
