    Tuna tataki and summer roll, delicious.
    Cassie C.

    I come here often for lunch, and it never disappoints. I love their sashimi shumai and yellow tail jalapeño Apps. I tried the tuna tataki App this time and it was great. Other favorite Apps are the spicy tuna bowl, treasure island and spicy tuna Cado, delicious. My favorite rolls are Ichiban roll, deluxe roll, summer roll, black dragon roll, and fire dragon roll. Definitely a great spot!

    I was in the mood for Chinese and ordered from this location. The order was called in. When I arrived, I parked in the large plaza lot. I walked in and told the man my name. My food was just about ready. When it came out I paid and left. I ordered the general tso shrimp. When I dug in, the food was good and filling. I had a good experience.

    Spicy Tuna Roll
    Charles T.

    This place admittedly has good days and bad days, I want to say that right off the bat. I've been here and been incredibly happy with my order and i've been here and have felt upset that I spent my money on it. On this specific trip, the food was good. I got the spicy tuna roll (if you ever go, get the wonderful roll, it's the best there), The Chicken Stick appetizer, and the Chicken with garlic sauce that I requested to be very spicy. The Spicy Tuna was good. It was not any better than good and it wasn't bad. Just good. The Chicken Sticks were solid. Sometimes places don't cook them well enough and the inside is still kind of watery, I hate that. They cooked them perfectly here. I also don't like when they add too much of the food dye to make them look like the Devil's Fingers or something...they didn't do that either. The Chicken with garlic sauce was a solid plate, but was not spicy. It was normal spicy and some people may have found it to be hot enough but I specifically asked them to make it really hot and it just wasn't. I also don't love the fried rice here, I never have. There isn't any "wok char" on it at all and it lacks flavor. Ichiban is good...there is better, but in the Poconos it's fairly middle of the road.

    Burnt and dry chicken sticks the worst went to the garbage waste of money

    Burnt chicken sticks charcoal burnt I have ordered them before never had this problem. How can you give this to a customer.

    Stopped by for late lunch and service was awesome, food was served hot and fast really good tasting, my daughter had fried rice and it came with a lot of onions the waiter told her next time let him know. So that's nice to know. We will come back

    So the set up there is very beautiful, and the food was fantastic. Yet I can not say the same for the service , the lady who sat us last night around 8pm had an attitude and was very rude. Then the cook he did his chef skills correct yet I have been to several other hibachi places and the chef is suppose to communicate with the people and kind of put on a little show for us . Meanwhile I do not even think he spoke once and we still gave him a tip because the food was great . I also did not like the fact the waitress brought out the soup and the salad at the same time then the chef started cooking , so I went ahead and asked the staff if they are closing soon because why the rush ? The waitress also was having an attitude when my fiancé was inquiring about rice ! Like come on ! It is your job lady. Hibachi is not a cheap dinner so when a group of 4 people are spending $130.00 without tips you think they would be more friendly, I guess not. Side note we weren't even served our noodles which is suppose to be in with the hibachi meals. I am only giving this restaurant three stars because the food was great and the set up and decor of the place was pretty and clean . Yet I am surprised they do not loose more customers due their horrible customer service skills . So next time I will not being going there !

    Despite it being Valentine's Day and very busy we were seated quickly and our orders were taken…read moreshortly thereafter. Service was attentive and quick given the volume of customers. We got the Karage, yakatori and takoyaki as appetizers the Yakatori and Takoyaki were both very good. The karage was just there. As mains we got the seafood ramen, spicy pork ramen and karage donburi. My spicy pork was very good, the seafood the noodle may have been slightly under and the rice in the donburi was way under. This was quickly solved by the waitstaff. Even though almost every table was full and music was playing you could have a normal conversation at your table so it was a nice atmosphere. This was our second time coming here and we will be back in the future. Thanks to the team here.

The waitress came by, took our orders, and brought water. For appetizers, we got the bone-in chicken special and the chasu monster roll. I was expecting the bone-in chicken to be a piece of bone in fried chicken coated with panko breadcrumbs. It was more like a chicken meatball coated in panko with a chicken bone shoved into it. It was dry, and i would not order it again. The chasu monster roll was just a maki roll with chasu inside. It was OK. I got the spicy miso chicken karaage ramen for my entree. The broth was not too heavy, or spicy. It was also loaded with karaage. The wavy noodles held the sauce well, i would order this again. I also got to try my wife's shoyu ramen. It was also good. Not a bad place to grab dinner if you're visiting the family resorts in the area.

    My review is based on more than one visit at take-out. It's hit or miss with the sushi, especially…read morethe Salmon or Tuna. The sushi looked like classic rolls, however I've experienced Salmon so tough that I just gave up eating it. I never knew salmon can be tough to eat. Maybe you guys need to get training on quality of seafood. Then on the other hand I experienced Tuna & Salmon mushy and I just hoped that I wouldn't get sick. I don't know what went wrong but I hope you guys get it together and stay consistent. I use to eat in and the service was great before the restaurant was renovated. After renovations, I felt things were lagging, so I take-out. Lastly, there use to be a friendly younger gentleman at the front desk with patience & understanding but now there is a Different gentlemen that's Hit or Miss. Since I only experience him during my takeout orders I can't figure out if he's miserable, stressed out, don't like people or needs to go on vacation. But I'm just happy he's there and not the chef. Get it together or leave it alone. That area of Stroudsburg Pa. needs restaurants like yours to visit, enjoy and leave happy not confused and hoping not to get sick. Lucky I didn't get sick.

    The service was okay…read more But management sucks!!!!! They didn't want to give me a few minutes to take a picture of my my outing. I would suggest that you patronize another establishment. The only people in the restaurant was my party of 5 and another couple consisting of 2 people. The "so called owner" went as far as to lock the door between the restaurant and the outer door. Purely unprofessional and disrespectful. I would never treat anyone who spent their money in my establishment In that way Please don't eat at this restaurant or spend your well earned money because it is truly not appreciated....

I, and my group, had never seen a hibachi place with seats that are behind the chef and where you cannot see anything. What's the point of hibachi if you're not able to watch the chef? Then, you're crammed into the seats like a pack of sardines. Looking at the menu, the drinks do not have any prices. Our waitresses came around and took our drink orders, they kind of jumped around the table a little - taking order from half of my party and then jumping to one of the tables behind the chef stoves, then back to us. My husband orders a Strawberry Daqauri. I order a Pina Colada Daqauri and a water. Both of these are non-alcoholic. (This information is important for later) Drinks are brought out. It took roughly about 20 to 30 minutes for a chef to make their way around to us, no big deal. The music is loud and we can only hear the person next to us at best. Chef Harry and Nathan come out and starts cooking dinner. He warns us to backup and I cannot because my seat is in front of a beam, mildly dangerous. I had to turn away from the heat and brightness if the flames. Chef Harry starts cooking and he's very entertaining to watch and literally the only reason I'm giving 2 stars instead of 1. When the protien is being cooked and served, they were served in very small portions. The NY Strip looks more like a flank steak and only had flavor from the fat of the steak. The chicken was dry and tasteless, the chicken teriyaki had no teriyaki. The food is mid, at best. It's absolutely not worth it for cheap chicken and flank steak from probably Aldi. The chef also seemed very confused by what order went to who and I don't really blame him with the amount of people that he has to manage. However, he messed up my friend's meal twice. First confusing his meal with his girlfriend's who was next to him, then the other he placed the shrimp on my other friend's plate then picked it up off her plate and moved it to his. What if they didn't know her or she was allergic to shellfish? We also received only one refill during this time. I drink a lot of water while eating so this was hard. Dinner wraps up, checks are served. My husband's Daqauri was $6 and mine was rang in as a virgin Pina Colada (I told them Daqauri) at $9. After mentioning this to the server, they have no way of ringing in a Pina Colada flavor for a Daqauri. She went to speak to her manager and we're informed that actually my husband's drink was also supposed to be $9 because all the virgin drinks are that much (much doubt). Then she walked away. Once the chef is done, they pretty much push you out the door, whether you're done eating or not, so they can turn the table. This is a tourist scam. Save your money and find another hibachi place.
