   I made a reservation at 8, wasn’t seated until 9. The chef didn’t come to the table and start cooking until 9:45. They must have been short staffed! I’ve never waited that long with a reservation.

   Dear Jaime, We’re truly sorry for the excessive wait you experienced during your recent visit. Waiting an hour past your reservation time and nearly two hours to start your meal is unacceptable, and we sincerely apologize for the frustration this caused. Staffing challenges may have contributed to the delay, but this isn’t an excuse, and we appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We’ll review our staffing and reservation processes to prevent this from happening again. Thank you for your patience, and we hope you’ll give us another chance to provide the timely and enjoyable experience you expect from us. Best regards,

   We had a 45 min wait to be seated with a reservation. Food started to be cooked 1 hr and 30 mins after reservation time. Meal took 2.5 hours and many items were over cooked with char. A few of the chefs are good but it’s not consistent.

   Rocky, our chef, was a hoot. Full of energy. Very interactive with a demanding group of customers. Very talented at cooking and serving exactly what each person requested. Well worth a cash tip at the end of the meal. Fun evening with my wife and three couples we had never met before, but rocky made it a fun experience with great food.

   Me and some friends came in at 3 pm hoping to have quick service and some lighthearted entertainment. Unfortunately it appeared only the manager was serving tables and by the time our meals finished cooking we still hadn’t gotten our rice. Our chef also openly admitted repeatedly she was only doing certain performances because she had to, and seemed very uninterested in actually entertaining.

   The food and the chef were not the problem. The issue here is communication and waitstaff. I must have told our waitress 4 times I was allergic to mushrooms. She sat a bowl of soup with mushrooms in front of me. She forgot our table numerous times, at one point even admitting it. Our dinner was over 3 hours long. Whole tables that came in after us, were seated, served , and left before we even got to our main meal. And it wasn’t just her. The table next to us had the same issue with allergies. They told their server they were allergic to shrimp- so the chef proceeds to cook this man’s meal alongside shrimp…smh. The manager was less than helpful. When we started to have issues I said something about how the server said she would get me a different bowl of soup without mushrooms and never came back . The managers response? Never once did she apologize. She told me how busy they were tonight and that to get a soup without mushrooms would take some time, and again they were busy. There are so many more things that made this a terrible experience , too many to list. She only refilled drinks 1 time (after promising over and over to do so) . She forgot who ordered what and had to come back multiple times to figure out the check. She brought items no one asked for and seemed confused as to who did. It goes on and on. I couldn’t get out of there fast enough.

   Awesome experience for my Husbands Birthday. We had Rocky as our cook and he was excellent. The manager came to our table and was extremely nice.

   At 6:15pm on Fri 2/21/25, we made a reservation for 4 at 7:30. Someone from the restaurant called me a few minutes later and said they were full for that time and the system shouldn’t have let me book. They asked if we could move the reservation to 8:30, which I agreed to. When we arrived at 8:30, we were told they were running an hour late, and asked us to come back at 9:30. We were finally seated at 9:40. It was around 10:15 before a waiter came to our table and 10:45 before drinks from the bar arrived. A chef did not come to our table until 11:10, by which point we were the last table still with patrons in the hibachi area. Despite this, we never received a single drink refill, despite most of the guests at our table being out of water for the duration of our meal. The quality of the food was good, though the portions are quite small for the price. This was exacerbated by the waiter confusing the order of some of the guests who wanted chicken fried rice with their meals. The chef asked the waiter to bring 2 additional chicken servings to correct this, but when they never arrived, he ended up dividing the chicken from everyone else’s entrees into smaller portions. We never received some of the courses included with our meals. Green tea and ice cream were never offered to us. We paid for 2 kids meals, but our kids never got vegetables or shrimp appetizer as specified on the menu. We only got their ice cream after asking for a 3rd time on our way out the door. $29 is a lot for a kids meal with a couple chicken tenders and side of noodles and no drink included. The manager took 20% of our bill after my wife complained about the wait, but that was before we were missing food we paid for. The manager said the whole thing is corporate’s fault for making them accept too many reservations despite how far behind they get. She said nothing will be done about this, and it’s the same every weekend. This, more than anything, ensured we will never be going back.
