The food is actually really really flavorful the lobster I had was very tender and juicy and the jumbo shrimp were a good l size. I would have ordered the chowmein though instead of the rice because the chowmein was way better! After discussing with the family we enjoyed it but it is 4 stars since it does take quite a while to have your meal and the customer service could be better. The food itself carries this place but 5 stars if they can improve service!

I ordered the two-protein plate with chicken and shrimp, plus veggies ($29). It comes with a side salad and your choice of white rice or fried rice. They also have a variety of sauces to choose from. The chicken and shrimp were really good. Well seasoned and flavorful. The soy sauce (I'm assuming) was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall I enjoyed my meal. They do offer lunch specials, and I'll definitely be back to try those. The restaurant is well maintained, with a clean dining area and bathroom.

The place was lively and upbeat, with an amazing playlist. The service was top-notch as well. I've only been here for a quick bite on lunch so I had no idea how to order for the massive AYCE menu that was surprisingly big. It was massive. Even the drink menu was endless. Our waiter was quick to understand that we were new, and kindly offered to just select the best meat for us. No problem! What ensued was an experience of nonstop meat heaven. The food wouldn't stop coming out! Before we knew it our table was set like a feast. The bisto hanger was delicious!! and their stone pot fried rice was unlike anything I've ever had. My family absolutely loved the experience, and my son was enthralled by being able to cook his own meats on the grill. Hats off to our kind waiter Donny for being a mind reader and giving my son a wonderful birthday celebration! We will be back again!

I'm surprised that the reviews are so low here!!! The meats…read moreare all actually really great quality and very well marinated. I took my nephews and we tried all meats on the premium AYCE menu. They also made custom fondue dip for us that wasn't on the menu, including gave us some secret dip to try they also gave my nephew a birthday strawberry sundae. The ice cream is actually also really yummy! The service was great too! The workers were super attentive and always checked on us. The inside is very clean. We will be back. Thank you!

Surprisingly very good…read more First time coming here, and I was a little thrown off by the restaurant name as Hibachi is typically a Japanese dish. I wasn't sure what to expect and if this was a going to be a fusion with Mexican flavors. It wasn't. It was typical Hibachi without the show. I ordered The Delux which was steak, chicken, shrimp with rice and veggies. This entree comes with 3 shrimps so I ordered a side of 3 more to share with my husband. The food smelled delicious and tasted so good too. I thought the chicken and beef was a little over done. I ordered the beef Medium but it came out Well Done and the chicken was slightly tough. I think if the meat was a little more tender and juicier, I would have given them 5 stars. The shrimp, rice, and veggies were delicious and flavorful. Shrimp was plump and juicy. Generous amounts of beef, chicken, and rice. Regardless, we thoroughly enjoyed our meal, and it was plenty for 2 people to share. Came here around 6pm and there was no one at the restaurant but the parking lot was full from other restaurants that share the same parking space. Ordered my food to go but the person at the counter was friendly and asked if I needed more sauce.

We waited for about 15 minutes before he came back. At this time there were about 8 tables occupied, well below half of the restaurant. He came by, out of peripheral vision and loudly said, "Ready?" Not aware he was talking to us, I turned almost behind me, and he was standing by the next booth. I told him I was ready, but my family had just went to the bathroom. Before finishing my sentence, he had already started walking away. Probably another 10 minutes, same thing, except he stood by our table. "Ready?!" He again said loudly and rudely. A family member ordered, he stayed quiet and just stared at us. Someone had a question about an item and he just said, "whatever it says on the menu." Like dude, if you don't want to be here and be helpful to people, go home. We finally get our order in, our water cups are empty. He eventually comes over when one of the orders is ready, says the name of the item, leaves it at the end of the table and leaves. He does this with every order. My family and I need water but this guy clearly doesn't care to be aware of people. Even a son who took his mom out for lunch was fed up at the next table. He started saying, "Excuse me" louder and raised his hand to get the servers attention. Our server didn't return to our table until he dropped off the check. I'll take my family an hour away to Sawtelle instead of dealing with the lack of service here. Food was ok, nothing to write home about. Music was a little loud, wall decor was nice, a lot of the booth seats had rips.

However our waiter brought us water and drinks right away, the food came out faster than any place I've been to, the grill was changed so many times I lost count and only one time we weren't able to flag our waiter down right away because he was rushing by with a full tray to a table. So the service was amazing, as for the food, or was great and the Hawaiian steak and the short ribs are a must. Very busy but with a reservation it only took about 5 minutes till we were seated and even though it can be considered loud for most restaurants, we were still able to have proper conversations. This is a chain and the friend I was visiting on California had taken me to this Korean style bbq place at another location but the food here was just as good. Definitely a place to check out if you are in the area.

They have a teppenyaki station where you can have made to order dish. They limit the steak to 2 pieces but there was only 1 piece left when I was there. They have clams, mussels, octopus and calamari but no salt and pepper shrimp which I was craving for. The quality of food is better than most buffets. Their clams soup base was tasty but not their clam chowder which was pasty. They have huge beef rib bones perfect to bring home to your dogs. Their ice cream selection was varied. Lunch was $20 with senior discount at $18 excluding tax and tip.
