On Monday around 11:30am, my aunt, niece & I stopped by to check out the new restaurant that had opened in the Happy Valley plaza (the newer one w/ Best Buy). After going past the first set of doors, we were greeted by a Japanese armor suit behind a glass case. It was interesting to look at and my 7 year old niece got a kick out of it.
As we walked towards our table for 3, we noticed that the restaurant was HUGE and only a handful of tables were occupied and 1 family at the teppanyaki table.
I decided on the steak lunch, my aunt had the chicken & scallop lunch and my niece had salmon sashimi w/ sushi rice. The fried rice was pretty tasty, the pieces of steak were juicy and the grilled veggies were good. For dessert, my niece ordered green tea ice cream. It ended up taking way longer than we expected so we had to flag down our waitress to remind her. Three heaping scoops drizzled w/ berry & chocolate syrups were soon brought out.
Teppanyaki restaurants are rarely ever very authentic, but Ah-So is pretty good for what it is.
3.5* but rounded up for the good service and cleanliness. The busboy was very prompt w/ clearing our empty bowls/dishes and refilling our waters.
