We come here often and is always a wonderful time. From beginning to end, our experience is always phenomenal thanks to Kiat. He greets us and other patrons very warmly and is very charming. Jason, our hibachi chef tonight, was super friendly and engaged with our kids, ages 7 and 1. Food is always delicious and the extensive drink menu is great too. The decor and ambiance is very unique and inviting. This is the perfect place for a date night or lunch/dinner with coworkers or friends. HIGHLY RECOMMEND little buddha for small and large groups! Thank you Kiat for outstanding service and attention. We will definitely be coming back.

We came here for a birthday, and it was definitely worth the wait. The salad and miso soup were delicious, and the chef was cool. We had to get 2 tables, one for shellfish, one for no shellfish. The food was delicious and the chef was very entertaining and engaging.

The food came out hot, fresh, and really tasty – exactly what you hope for when you go out to eat. Service was quick without ever feeling rushed. Our waitress kept us laughing the whole time, and she didn’t miss a beat with the little things like keeping water and tea topped off. Those details make all the difference. All around, a great experience – we’ll definitely be back.

Decent hibachi. The major upside it it’s probably the best restaurant in an otherwise pretty drab selection in the mall.

The food wasn't terrible but one of the worst Hibachi experiences I've had.
They automatically included a 15% tip which whatever no big deal I would have given that as a minimum
Also fried rice is an upcharge but they don't tell you that when you're ordering
The chef did the absolute minimum for the show other chefs around us at the restaurant and did a much better job doing all the fun Hibachi things and shooting sake into people's mouths and stuff but our Chef did not so that might have been a one-off experience
Lastly they refused to put teriyaki on the steak on the grill and would only give you a side of Teriyaki the steak basically had no flavor

The food was absolutely amazing! I went with my two brothers, who are both vegetarians, and the staff was very accommodating of their dietary preferences. They both really enjoyed their meals, which says a lot!
We chose to do the hibachi experience—even though the chef only cooked for me, I still got the full experience. He was incredibly kind, engaging, and made the whole thing fun and memorable. The food came out perfectly cooked and packed with flavor.
The waitress was also wonderful—super friendly and had a great sense of humor, which made our visit even more enjoyable.
Overall, it was a fantastic dining experience. I would absolutely rate it a 10/10 and definitely plan to come back. If you're visiting the mall, this place is a must-try!

After reading other reviews I agree the food is bland with little to no flavor. I got scallops and they had no flavor and were well well done. The filet minogn was cooked correct but lacked flavor. The white rice was hard and clumpy. I tried the $4.00 extra fried rice and was happy i got the crappy white rice. The special drinks were all mixer and barely any booze.

The food was okay. It just needed a little more seasoning. My drink was watered down. I think they forgot to add the liquor. The chefs are always friendly and talkative. Learned some interesting things about China from the chef.
