First time at Habachihana Grill and we were very impressed! The New York steak bowl and chicken…read morebowl were both phenomenal. The sauces are also delicious and add an extra touch of flavor, though the food is great on its own.

Highly recommend--we'll definitely be back!

We got to choose our protein that was paired with fried rice and vegetables. I got scallops and pork belly, which was surprisingly the best choice for me. I also tried the steak and lobster, which was also very tasty as well. My friend got medium rare steak and it was butter. Perfectly cooked. The pork belly (also like butter) paired so well with the scallops. The vegetables and the green sauce was really yummy as well and so was the fried rice.

Maison Kasai is honestly one of the more unique teppanyaki spots I've been to. The food was amazing…read moreoverall, and our chef Ivan was incredible! super attentive with the plating and presentation, and everything tasted thoughtfully prepared. The pea soup especially surprised me in the best way possible. Such a unique flavor and easily one of my favorite parts of the meal. The only thing I didn't enjoy food-wise was the salad because it was way too sour for my taste. Unfortunately, the service and staff experience really dragged the night down. Everyone was very nice, but the staff seemed extremely disorganized, confused, and honestly untrained. They tried to double charge our bill, and after I pointed it out, they removed the duplicate charge but somehow still kept the extra taxes from the duplicate bill on there. When I flagged it again, they acted like they were doing me a favor by removing it "just this once," when I was literally just pointing out a math error. Why would I pay taxes on a charge that was removed? The servers also kept forgetting things seconds after asking us. One asked how I wanted my steak cooked, I said medium well, and moments later came back asking if I wanted it rare. My friend said she wanted steak, and the server responded with "So you wanted the cheeseburger?" It honestly felt chaotic the entire night. That said, the food itself was genuinely impressive and very different from your standard teppanyaki experience. If they can improve the staffing and organization, this place could easily become a standout spot worth returning to.

I like how the entrees come as a set meal with salad, miso soup, tofu, and small vegetable dishes. I've tried the nigiri sets, sushi rice bowls, and beef/rice bowls. Sushi is standard, nothing super wow but good enough. The servers are all nice and service is good. One of the servers was so sweet to my son last time. She was patient when he worked up the courage to ask for some items and brought extra cucumbers for him to snack on. We sit on the patio since our kids get a little rowdy and messy.

HIDDEN GEM. Always impressed with the service, food and…read moreexperience. Tonight we sat at the teppanyaki grill & celebrated our anniversary. Once the whole party was seated & our order was taken, we received our delicious ginger salad and miso soup quickly. When our chef arrived he was ready to put on a show! He was so fun, engaging and very genuine. All of the food was amazing. I got the filet mignon steak w/ fried rice and my husband gets the sumo steak. The filet mignon is definitely worth it but if you prefer more meat, the sumo steak is the way to go. The drinks are affordable and compared to other teppanyaki places, the food is affordable and absolutely worth it. They also offer a happy hour in the dining room only - does not include the teppanyaki grill area. Truly one of our favorite places!!

3.5/5 Stars - Nice Experience, But Some Service and Timing Issues…read more We visited Tabi-Ji Teppanyaki for my husband's birthday and had an overall decent experience, though there were a few things that would make us think twice before returning. We chose the dining room seating rather than the teppanyaki tables. The staff did offer us the teppanyaki experience, but since we don't eat red meat or chicken from certain places and weren't sure how the food preparation process worked with mixed ingredients, we opted for a regular table instead. One downside was the seating arrangement. We were seated away from most of the other guests, and it often felt like the staff forgot we were there. Our original host/server was attentive and friendly, but once they were busy with other tasks, it became difficult to get assistance. It was also not busy for a Tuesday evening. We found ourselves waiting for long periods or having to wave someone down, which wasn't ideal, especially for a birthday dinner. As for the food: * Crunchy Spicy Tuna Roll (4/5): Fresh, good quality fish, and a generous portion. A solid sushi roll. * Garlic Edamame (4/5): Flavorful and exactly what you'd expect from a good appetizer. * Lobster Duo with Miso Soup, Salad, and Fried Rice (3/5): Unfortunately, the lobster was quite chewy and seemed overcooked. The miso soup and fried rice were both enjoyable and helped make up for it. * Unagi Donburi (4/5): My husband's meal came with white rice, miso soup, salad, and fried rice. It was his first time trying eel, and he really enjoyed the soft texture and flavor. He said he'd definitely order it again. Our biggest disappointment was the timing of the food. The Unagi Donburi arrived significantly later than everything else. By the time it came out, we had already eaten most of the appetizers and other dishes and were pretty full. It's unfortunate because it seemed like a dish that would have been much better enjoyed fresh, but we ended up taking most of it home. Overall, the food ranged from good to very good, and being able to reserve through Resy and use our Amex dining benefit definitely helped offset the cost. However, considering the price point, we expected more attentive service and better pacing of the meal.
