| - Attempted to try the teppanyaki here but the wait was one hour so we tried eating at the sushi bar for whatever was on the menu. Unfortunately the food was less than par. We ordered the Golden Spider Roll, Mango Tango Roll and Japanese Fried Rice and let's just say that I've had better. :(
Here's the details for how it all went down:
Golden Spider Roll - eel, imitation crab mixed with masago, cucumber, avocado, cream cheese, mango. The ratio of the eel (the main attraction) was about 1/10th of the roll, the imitation crab mix was an enormous 1/2 of the roll and the rest was the avocado, cream cheese and cucumber. The eel was missing out on the show. And, the masago (which was not the normal masago I usually have) was incorporated into the imitation crab so if you're not into that crunchy poppy texture in your mouth then don't order anything with imitation crab.
Mango Tango Roll: we didn't realize that this was almost the same as the Golden Spider Roll and it was the same ratios. The main event, the soft shell crab, was hiding at a mere 1/10th of the roll- minus the ends of the roll. Those were luckily on the heartier side.
Japanese Fried Rice: should come with peas, carrots, onions, fried egg,pineapple and shrimp. When we were presented the dish it looked very very plain. There was no color to it as if it had the flu. There were maybe 5 peas on the entire dish, bits of fried egg, no carrots. Tasteless for a fried rice dish. We didn't eat much of this as we will attempt to redo it at home and cure it from its flu.
Note to us: do not come here for the sushi and entrees. I will say however the teppanyaki was lively and had a wait of an hour. The cooks seem to be energetic and the crowd was too. We heard a laughing hyena clear across the other room on multiple accounts. Their bday song was quite funny in a good way and we must've heard it 6 times in 45 minutes. So it was a crowd pleaser. I don't think we will come back here again due to the sushi lacking the main part of the order and the tasteless flavors of the fried rice. So sorry.
