| - This was our second visit. We were told the wait would be 15-20 minutes for seating at a Teppanyaki table (Thursday night in December.) The wait was actually around an hour, as the previous Teppanyaki diners stayed long at the table to visit. (We asked hostesses to offer to move them to a regular table to enjoy their conversation; hostesses declined.) The waiting area directly faces the restrooms; the sights and aromas are gross and disgusting. The service was slow and inattentive. The sushi, merely ordinary, arrived only moments before our dinner was ready, after we had inquired of its whereabouts three (3) times. Our chef, Tony, was friendly, entertaining, and competent. The rice and shrimp were amazing; the veggies overcooked; the filet adequate, at best; portions, huge; prices, over the top. My rating is one star, only because of the chef. Although our first visit was better than the second, I won't go back. There are many restaurants in Phoenix with better service, food, ambiance, and prices.
