| - Shinta is a relatively new AYCE JBBQ place that opened, and is quite busy! Make a reservation ahead of time, so you don't have to wait around. We were told there are 20 tables for walk-ins.
The food was fantastic, but the service wasn't so good. Many of our orders never came, and it was difficult to flag down servers because of how busy they all were. We were also told that it was last call for food orders at 10pm (when the place closes at 11), which really sucked, given that we never got several orders of our food. That being said, one of our servers, Rebecca, was really nice and attentive.
You have the option of regular AYCE or wagyu AYCE, where the wagyu AYCE is $30-40 more (can't remember off the top of my head) and lets you get unlimited Australian and US wagyu. The more expensive wagyu is a la carte only.
We opted for regular AYCE, and also ordered 200g each of Japanese and Australian wagyu on the side. Both were delicious - the Japanese wagyu was very buttery and soft. The food on the regular AYCE menu was very good, and I definitely would stick to that if I come back.
All in all, I really liked the food, but I don't think I'll be back because of the service. It was too much work to have to constantly check on whether our orders were coming, ask for water refills, and we didn't get as much food as we wanted because of all this.
