I have never had such a terrible excuse for hibachi

I really like this place and think it has so much potential. But I have to say the inconsistency in the food is starting to show, and it really comes down to who’s cooking on any given day. Sometimes the fried rice is perfect, and other times it’s mushy. Sometimes the chicken is perfectly seasoned, other times it’s really bland. When it’s good, it’s truly amazing and it’s one of the best hibachi to-go spots in Richmond. But these last couple of times, it’s been a letdown.
I’m leaving this review because I really want to see the place succeed and step it up a notch with more consistent training for the cooks. It’s got the potential to be a standout spot if the quality becomes more reliable. Right now, if they keep pushing out inconsistent dishes, they risk just blending into the background like any other place. I’m rooting for them to get it right!

When I first walked in it smelled funny, I should have walked out then. The drink machine only had one working sofa which was a kind I didn't like no refund was offered which is not a big deal. But once the food came the vegetables seemed old it wasn't a lot of shrimp and the flavor of the food wasn't good. Overall I would not recommend anyone to try this place.

Got our order completely wrong, I had to go back in and ask for the side of noodles I ordered. When we got home realized that the chicken hibachi had no chicken in it. The noodles in the side and the noodles in the hibachi tasted completely different. The food that they did manage to cook was bland. When I called multiple times to try to get a refund on the chickenless chicken hibachi they did not answer the phone and there was no voicemail set up so it rang endlessly. Having to dispute the transaction through my bank instead. A ridiculous experience.

MISS JAZZMIAN is an amazing chef with a great show. Great personality overall a 10 out of 10. Can't wait to enjoy more of her food. Always get the shrimp rolls, their A1 and always get the chicken bowl. They're amazing

Food is nice and seasoned. Meat is moist. Very appealing and the customer service was great. It's also a black owned business

I popped into this restaurant because I had heard amazing things and I love to support black owned business. If you love all kinds of Asian cuisines and have had them, then this restaurant will disappoint. I 100% say give it a chance. I got a chicken fried rice bowl with spring rolls and s strawberry lemonade. My fried rice was hard and chewy. The chicken tasted like the kind you get in the mall and the vegetables were fine. The springs rolls were not tasteful and greasy. IDK if they were homemade. They tasted like PF Changs frozen to ready spring rolls you get at the grocery store. The strawberry lemonade was pretty good. Winner there but it was almost $5, soooo.The yum yum sauce tasted like big mac sauce as well. Maybe this place was top tier 10/10 when they opened but right now I give them a 5/10. They also didn't have any seating. No ambience. I probably won't go back but definitely give it a shot.

Popped into grab some with my family, was greeted by an employee Jasmine, who was polite and very helpful. Once we placed our order, it didn't take long for her to make it; which was great. Happy first experience there and a special thank you to Jasmine for wonderful service.
The rice is hard. Yall gave me the burnt bottom of the pot rice for 25.00. just ordered

Considering that I read the reviews before I tried this spot, maybe I was hoping upon hope when I decided to try it.
I ordered the Steak and Shrimp with Rice and an egg roll. Considering that rice is a major part of this dish,(if you choose it as your side/base) I was still surprised to bite and find that the rice was indeed ... Dry & Crunchy. I'm not sure how that's possible when it's a major part of the meal. Maybe it's my fault for not ordering at lunch and getting the end of day rice. But, I can't say I've ever gotten crunchy rice anywhere that serves rice as a main menu item.
I hope someone sees these consistent complaints and takes them seriously. But, It won't be something I try again anytime soon. I believe we've had enough disappointment this year.

I am writing this review with a heavy heart! As much as I wanted to enjoy a black owned hibachi spot, this was really sad! The food was horrible. I literally paid 22.00 for about 6 slices of thin zucchini and about 6 brocoli florets. It was bad! Chewy shrimp, horrible flavor and the yum yum sauce, tasted like a strange honey mustard. Save your money!

Don’t know what happened since they reopened but I went in today got a chicken hibachi meal today at home only to find that my rice was harder than ever chicken was dry and vegetables soggy and wilted. Their yum yum sauce taste like over seasoned thousand island dressing and when I called to check on my food no answer 3 times. Went into the restaurant directly after to see the guy buried in his phone with no other staff in sight. Do not waste your time or money. If you come I would take of my food immediately to not get duped by the looks and old reviews that seem to say the food is good. It’s not.
