    I made a reservation via phone call. The food was descent, love the show. The ambiance was a little small but just happy a place like this exists around here. Definitely great for all types of occasions or just a night out. Plenty of parking available outside.

    Local Benihana type Japanese teppanyaki restaurant without the wait and affordable. If you never been to this type of restaurant its fun pretty much dinner and a show at your table. We ordered the special which comes with shrimp, chicken and steak. Salad, soup, rice, vegetables and noodles come with that. We upgraded to fried rice for a small charge. To start we tried the Japanese egg rolls which were ok. In hindsight they give you a lot of food so an appetizer is not needed. The main course was great. All the proteins were flavorful and the sides were filling. They have quite a few tables inside and the vibe was fun.

    My family and I came here for dinner and had the pleasure of having chef Mike. It was my cousins bday but he was interactive and mindful of the kids instead it was great. Food is good just make sure you ask for him as a chef if possible.

    I ordered takeout from this place thinking it was another place and I'm glad I made the mistake bc this is a good new addition to this neighborhood! The staff were very friendly over the phone and in person. The takeout food was overall yummy. I will be back to dine in with my family to enjoy the hibachi tables!

    Place is clean and fairly new .

    First time here . Place is newly opened. Lots of hibachi table to share dinner with family and friends. Service was great, mindful of empty plates in eating area. Which is needed for table that has limited space like this.

    Came here with my guy's family and it was such a fun show! Our chef was funny and gave such a great performance! Service was top notch for sure! Everyone (kids, parents, adults, etc) at my table was smiling, laughing, and enjoying their time. I got the chicken and shrimp with fried rice. My fried rice was good but had a very strong garlic flavor that was nearly too much. I really liked the veggies, noodles, and my chicken, but my shrimp tasted like chicken due to the order of it being cooked. My guy got the steak, and it was cooked a perfect medium rare as requested! I've only had hibachi at Benihana before and this was soo much better. On the pricier side for the amount you get, but it does include a show. I hope they work on improving the flavors a bit so that everything doesn't taste similarly to one another.

    my first hibachi experience and it was excellent! perfect way to celebrate any occasion with a bigger group of people. as soon as we entered the place, we were greeted and seated at our table that was reserved beforehand. every single person working was friendly and warm, including the chefs of course. the food was delicious and the portions were generous! I heard that this place is similar to Benihana in many ways, but I would rather support a small local business, so I would definitely come back here if I am craving some hibachi.

    Food, Service, Ambiance, Customer service & attentiveness all 5 stars! ( Long review coming up) Made a reservation for my husbands birthday and from start to end they treated us with great attention and were very kind. Every single person that joined us enjoyed the food and the show. Chef Mike & waitress Raenah were amazing. We want to come back to have more delicious food. We were laughing the whole time ans had a great time with Chef Mike. Raenah and the other employees made sure we had refills before we noticed and were so attentive. The food was delicious, everything was cooked perfectly and to our liking. I wish them much success and I think they will gain a lot of long term happy clients with how they are running the restaurant. They forsure got a long term client in us!

    Good prices, good service. I liked how they kept the silly jokes to one minute only and no weird singing by the chef like at other Tepanyaki places. Portions were smaller but that was fine with me because I was still full. Final bill was about 30% less than the same order at Benihana. Only small problem was my coke was half flat.

    Located in the Eastlake/Otay area near Walmart. Nice little place. They cook the food right in front of you giving a show. Place was clean. Got there when it opened and the place filled up pretty quickly. The service was great. The prices are good, not overpriced compared to similar Japanese restaurants. To top it off, the food was very good. The chef at our table accommodated some of our food requests without question. I would definitely come back. I wish I took better photos to show others the place.

    Took the family here for dinner on a busy Saturday night. They just soft-opened, so they are still figuring some things out. Ordered the Filet and Shrimp, which were delicious. The owners (who are super kind) used to own the nearby Okama, where they served the Hibachi steak but didn't cook it in front of you. Prices are a little high for the area, but they have a children's menu for 12 and under. Ambiance is simple, but well lit and well ventilated. We love having a new Teppanyaki place nearby! Definitely recommended!

    10/10 experience. It was my first time at a Hibachi type restaurant. There wasn't a lot of people when I went so I was seated right away. Servers were amazing, cook was amazing, funny and entertaining. There isn't a negative thing to say about the food. Everything was amazing and well priced. The vibe in the restaurant was very relaxed and their playlist was amazing. Definitely come here, it's worth it!

    Fire front and center always provides a "WOW" factor!

Not only was our food significantly delayed for a pick up, but when it finally arrived, all three of the premium rolls we ordered were incorrect. Considering the higher price point of these specialty rolls, and past experience, I expected more of a "quality control" feature. What made the situation even more frustrating was that the manager, Julie, clearly acknowledged there was a problem with our order. However, the only response we received was a brief, "I'm sorry." While an apology is appreciated, it did little to address the inconvenience of waiting an extra 40 minutes for the food that wasn't even what we ordered. There was no meaningful effort to make things right, no explanation for the mistakes, other than "we are working on that internally" and no attempt to compensate for the poor experience. Mistakes can happen at any restaurant, but customer service is what separates a good establishment from a bad one. Based on the totality of circumstances from the delay of the food being ready when stated and then the order being incorrect, I had expected a bit more. Unfortunately, the lack of urgency and accountability shown by management, Julie, left a very negative impression. Between the excessive wait time, incorrect order, and inadequate response from management, this was not an experience I would recommend, and I will be hesitant to return, which is very unfortunate because we are frequent flyers and seeing quite a bit of new faces today makes me wonder if more is going on internally. Adding, as a frequent flyer, there are times that our food is incorrect with our customizations, but because we are so appreciative of the one server when they are short staffed and the quality of the food, we generally don't say anything, the reason for this review is more of the lack of customer service experience firsthand by the manager, Julie.

She has a way of making you feel genuinely welcome, and that is something you don't find everywhere. It was one of those meals that you don't just eat--you truly enjoy and remember.
