The food was delicious, both the server and chef who served us were very amicable. Chef put on a good show cooking our food and we had a nice conversation as he did. Interior is beautiful, very well decorated, just a little dark, but we adjusted to it quickly. Would definitely recommend!

The food is very yummy, and the staff is very nice ! The place looks so creepy though, it’s very dark and almost half abandoned looking. I’d recommend though. The fire , volcano was awesome

Not gonna lie, it felt a little dungeon-y. But in a good way. Like it felt like the setting for some really good japanese food as well as the perfect date night setting. We went on a sunday at 6pm. We were lucky enough to get sat at our own table with our own chef . Usually parties smaller than 8 would have to share a chef. So this felt perfect for our 2 year anniversary. The wait staff was fantastic and the chef was very professional. They made us feel like we were at home. We had the Japanese fried chicken, octopus balls, steak/scallops, and salmon/shrimp. All tasted fantastic. The octopus blew me away because i didn’t know what to expect. It was probably the best taste appetizer. Don’t let the name put you off. Youll want these in your mouth, no diddy. To drink, we had the hibachi cooler and south beach. The south beach was better but both were good. Overall fantastic experience. Parking was free as they’re located in a shopping center and the location is easy to find. They have ample parking at the front and back of building. Although the back was where the actual front door is. Will definitely go again with a bigger group of friends! I spent 98 for me and my wife and tipped 20%. So definitely affordable for a semi-casual date night.

Wanted my kids to enjoy a hibachi style meal and they were not disappointed. It was pretty empty inside for a Saturday lunch, but that made it better for us to enjoy. The server was friendly and entertaining.

I came for dinner during the covid pandemic on August 2021. The food was served in plastic to go boxes with plastic silverware, but that didn't affect how out of this world delicious it was! I ordered the steak and scallops, and that came with 3 vegetables, rice, and a salad. The food was seasoned and cooked to perfection, I was not the least bit disappointed. The serving sizes were large; neither my friend or me cleared out plate, we both left with doggy bags. They don't have paper menus right now, they have a QR code you scan that pulls the menu up on your phone. Clean bathrooms. Friendly staff. I would recommend this restaurant and I would definitely eat here again.
