| - Hibachi is not one of those foods or meals I crave, it's always someone else's idea. Dinner and a show is a good go-to plan for special events like birthdays, which is how I made it into Ohjah's newest location.
Order your meals based on your preferred protein, and then the soup, salad, rice, and veggies are included, along with dipping sauces. You can add on apps, sides, drinks, and more but the base meal is quite a bit of food on it's own. Dishes are coursed out and you get to enjoy watching the chef make your meal with fire, sound effects, and commentary. If you're especially lucky, you might get to catch a shrimp in your mouth as part of Sam's show. Start practicing now to avoid looking like an idiot.
My favorite protein here has been the scallops: they're HUGE, seared to perfection, and served juicy with garlic sauce. My meatatarian dining companion liked his NY Strip so much he barely gave me a bite, while the birthday girls loved their lobster tails.
As is expected for this style of restaurant, your experience will vary based on which chef you are assigned to. I highly recommend Sam, who was engaging and friendly; another chef's actual cooking was a bit better (perfectly nailed med-rare!) but whose presence was less engaging.
