| - Was previously here about 5 yrs ago, and things appear to have quietened down from then and from the line-ups a decade ago, though we were there at the odd hour of 4pm. Very quite at that time with a resulting slow down in service as well, as it seemed the chef may have been on a break. Once he came though, things started speeding up. Food was very good, nothing exceptional mind you, however for the price it was good value and it was fresh. The chef was funny, bordering on offensive for some people I am sure, however, we enjoyed it as it was all good natured. I would recommend the teppanyaki experience as its certainly better value/price than similar restaurants such as Benihana at the Royal York Hotel and Hibbachi at The Thompson Hotel (a regular Japanese menu is also available). I would not make this a destination for a romantic night out as its very practical in its appearance, décor needs to be modernized, and the location is at a strip mall, so if trying to impress a girlfriend would choose Hibbachi as an alternative. All in all would visit again if in the neighborhood, and in the mood for teppanyaki as I have not tried their other menu.
