I got myself a margarita on the rocks. The service here is really great, and the experience here reminded me of Benihana's. The appetizer was a 3 piece sushi that didn't taste that good. Then we got a small plate of tuna with seaweed as a second appetizer. This was followed by miso soup, a bowl of fried rice with shrimp, beef and pork kebabs with veggies. We were given some pork filet pieces and for dessert it was mango mochi. The fried rice had lots of butter added to it like they do at Benihana's. The kebabs were cooked well enough, but the lack of variety of veggies was sad. The miso soup was pretty watery also. The sushi pieces and tuna were not tasty at all. If I ever came back to this resort, I would probably avoid this restaurant.

You can ultimately get many of the options stated on menu in buffet not sure I would return to this location if I went back to the resort.

Similar to a Beni-Hana, we arrived early for our seating but when we made reservations, I wasn't aware that it was for the Hibachi. We were seated amongst three other couples and it's the same routine as if you were at a Beni-Hana. We liked it so much we came two days later and had the restaurant side with sushi. The sushi and Japanese dishes were quite good. Overall, I highly recommend dining here. The food was better than any of the other restaurants at Valentin.

The "Hamachi" (yellow tail) was a bite that melted in your mouth, I ended up getting a couple rounds of these 2-piece bites. the rolls were great all around, you really cannot go wrong with any choice here. Service was great (even though we went close to closing time), place is clean , lots of parking options but its an easy walk from anywhere in the hotel zone.

Soft shell crab roll was really oily, and the roll fell apart too easily. It crumbled with a small pinch of my chopsticks. The rice felt like it was missing something, it was not seasoned with sushi rice seasoning or vinegar. Wish the dishes came with wasabi or ginger. Staff was friendly and patient which is an added star.

My favorite is the freshly made fried rice, but the entire meal is delicious. The chefs are so much fun and you can tell they enjoy their craft. This is also great the sit down service. The sushi is delicious - I particularly love the dragon roll. I also love the chicken fried rice entree (shocker!). The restaurant also has really good air conditioning since they need to clear the air from the hibachi shows - perfect to sit in after a long day at the beach.

We ordered Gyoza, shoyu ramen with chicken (comes with thick noodles), tonkotsu ramen (comes with thin noodles), and a rice bowl (pork only). The tonkotsu ramen, rice bowl, and gyoza were the best items. The shoyu ramen was just ok in my opinion. Note that the rice bowl is pretty small. It is more like a side item to accompany your ramen or for someone who isn't very hungry. Another plus- this place is small, but has AC! This seems so rare from the restaurants we ate at in Playa.
