| - Oh, my God. I have no idea if the other reviews are from friends of the owners or if people in this town have no idea what good asian food is. We came in from Chicago and looked on Yelp for a Japanese place (we really were looking for a hibachi restaurant, but none came up.) We believed the great reviews.
IT'S IN A MALL FOR A REASON!! It's terrible mall food-court food at it's worst. Granted, we didn't get the teriyaki chicken that other reviewers were raving about, but we DID get the teriyaki shrimp. Meh to the fifth degree.
We got it to go, so they dumped a ton of incredibly bland, tasteless fried rice in a styrofoam container. Ontop of that, they dumped the "grilled vegetables." People, this was 95% cabbage - almost all filler. There were two small sprigs of dry brocolli, which was something, I guess. Then came the shrimp. Oy. They were already cooked BABY shrimp, that the "cook" put on the grill to warm up, dumping a ladle of the tasteless teriyaki sauce on it. It's a good thing I asked for some soy sauce, because that plus a bunch of hot sauce I put on it was the only thing that gave any taste whatsoever.
Oh, and the "maki roll" is a stale spring roll. Not good at all.
Honestly, people. In what world can this be considered good, much less very good or great?!
The workers WERE nice, although they were hispanic, which also should've tipped us off...
