Had a great experience at this location! I have celiac and our son has a severe gluten intolerance & other food allergies. The server was incredible and helped us, and the manager on duty was absolutely wonderful! She went through the whole menu with us, explained that they will cook our food separately in the kitchen from the rest of the party on the hibachi grill. They had GF soy sauce, and explained which sushi rolls we could eat.

This was our first time trying this restaurant and we were incredibly pleased with the service & the food!

The food was amazing, the chef was funny. He even played the guitar for a birthday song in English and Spanish. Best restaurant experience I’ve ever had.

The first time we visited it was great. We took a friend who hasn't been before to share the experience. We were moved from the spot we were sitting at after waiting 20 minutes. We already placed our order. In the new place we were sat, we took another 20 minutes for a waiter to come out and take our order again. Took other people's order ,who were just seated, and still overlooked us. Not too much later the waiter sat down others in the previous place we were just at. It's good food and everyone has a bad day but they definitely bombed my friends first time. Very disappointed.

I had a birthday dinner here. The lady we were paired with at our table just had alot of issues with her meal. Kept telling our chef how to cook. He ended up forgetting my salmon was on the grill and to make up for it put teriyaki sauce on it. The salmon was crunchy and sweet. The lady kept telling him to put more butter and he just kept scooping more and more it the food. The food wasn't good. The chef wasn't even comfortable doing a show. All the other tables had shows but our chef was just trying to get outta there. The server did the best he could and the chef was just too distracted with arguing with her. I spoke to the manager and he said he could no longer do anything after I left. Just a very poor first experience.
My family got sick from the food there and the owner said since we didn't get sick last night they can't refund us back. Spend 140 only for us to throw it back up.
