    Love boat platter for 2
    David S.

    Everything was so delicious and fresh! Prices are reasonable too! We went around 1:30/2pm for lunch. Very quiet during that time. My wife had the yellowtail tartar and I had the wagyu beef tataki. Both sooo good. For our entree we shared a love boat and it was so fresh, the wasabi was fantastic too. I would recommend calling for reservations, while we were sitting there the phone was going on for reservations so I'd imagine dinner service will be booming. Love the place and cannot wait to try everything on the menu.

    I brought my family here as a surprise. They LOVE sushi and I went to a revolving sushi place when…read moreI was younger in Florida. They absolutely loved it. We were greeted with a welcoming smile. We were sat at the prime spot...at the beginning of the conveyor belt. The food was fresh and delicious. You can also order off the menu if you don't see what you want on the belt. Everyone here is super friendly and make you feel welcome. This was the first time we were here and DEFINITELY won't be the last. My wife wants to come all the time now. If we didn't live 30 minutes away we would come every week. We still might! It's THAT good!

    Visited at noon time on a Monday holiday. Not sure if that was the best time to go…read more Negatives: -cluttered inside. Ex. Empty boxes stacked on chairs -bathrooms not the cleanest -not a lot of variety sent out with way too much Edamame as an option -they slow rolled our group of 5 after I assume they thought we ate enough. Imo, we did not get close to the $27 cost per each of us. My estimation we were at about the $20 worth it mark.. Positives: -The food was excellent -very cool concept I will give them the benefit of the doubt. Maybe noon Monday after St Valentine's Day when they are closed the next day (tues) was not the best time to go. Maybe they were low on supply. I may try again some time but definitely not bring my family of 6 to test it out again. I hesitate to write a semi negative review but felt like I should. As I said, the food we did have was very good. Maybe next time we just order off the non all-you-can-eat menu

    So I like the hibachi atmosphere! A little retro with nice relaxing music. The service is helpful…read moreand and considerate. Although we arrived near opening hours, so little competition for EXCELLENT SERVICEThe selection was a finer taste, making me feeling fancy Im definitely looking forward to trying the hibachi another time.

    I'm honestly really disappointed with my experience here -- especially because it happened twice…read more The first time, the portions were extremely unfair. I clearly asked beforehand if I could get a side prepared directly from the kitchen in a separate bowl of noodles so it wouldn't be mixed in on the hibachi stove and turn into leftovers. They said yes -- but what I received was basically a tiny sliver of food. It honestly looked like scraps or leftovers. It was such a small portion that it didn't even make sense for what we paid. What made it worse was that the people sitting across from us received noticeably larger portions -- way bigger plates with much more food -- while ours were tiny. It felt completely unfair. The service also wasn't great. When I called ahead, I was told I couldn't make a reservation. But when we arrived, they asked if we had one. Then they said they only start taking reservations later in the day, which was never explained on the phone. The communication was confusing and inconsistent. Overall, between the unfair portions, messed-up orders, and poor service, this place really let us down. For the price you pay at hibachi restaurants, you expect quality and fairness -- and unfortunately, that wasn't the case here.
