| - After looking for restaurants on Christmas Eve after hitting the movies, we decided on trying the Hibachi Japanese Steakhouse. When we came in, we weren't sure if it was open. When someone came to seat us, there seemed like a long wait for a hibachi table. We had a regular table, and about 10 minutes after we were seated we saw a family that had been waiting finally get to their table. However, our regular table was fabulous! I can't speak for crowd sizes on normal days, but there was nobody sitting near us, so it was nice and quiet. Our waitress was great and checked up on us several times throughout our 45 minutes stay. It wasn't a very long wait for food: soup and salad came first, and then entrees. There was a choice of maybe 15 or so hibachi dinners that you could order not at the hibachi table, which was a nice touch because I don't like the chaos and noise of hibachi tables. Each hibachi dinner comes with onion soup, a salad, your choice of entree, and steamed white rice (which can be substituted for fried rice or noodles at an extra cost). I had a yakosabi hibachi dinner, which came with stir fried noodles, vegetables, a choice of chicken or beef, and steamed white rice, which came to a total of about $16. That might seem like a lot, but what I received could serve at least 3 people! There was a humongous pile of tasty noodles, varied vegetables, a HUGE amount of chopped beef, and a nicely sized side of white rice. I definitely did not finish all of it- I barely made a dent! I also ordered a kid's "little mermaid": a full sized Shirley temple mixed with pineapple juice, which was delicious. Everything was cooked nicely and was delicious. Would definitely come here again, and you have lunch and dinner for tomorrow!
