"The food was fresh, full of flavor, and served quickly. We’d happily recommend this place to anyone looking for a great meal!"
Dani
"The food hardly ever disappoints, service was good but the atmosphere and 'show' was disappointing. Other tables had the usual saki pour, egg roll joke, food toss/catch game, but our table nothing. 😢 We even talked the chef up and asked if he has ever dropped an egg or how long does it take to learn the tricks etc to try to engage him, nothing. So sad. When you pay $80 for a meal that usually comes with entertainment you expect it."
Brandy Baker
"We had a large group dinner here for my granddaughters 10th birthday. She loved every minute of it. The chef at our table was so engaging with the kids and kept them laughing. Service was great and the food was yummy."
