| - Went there with my girlfriend on a Thursday night. Both of us got the all you can eat.
Pros:
+ nice ambiance
+ tasty grilled meat
Cons:
- horrible service
- bad sushi
- not great for large groups
Service: (2/5 stars)
When we walked in, there was nobody at the hostess desk. After a while a manager walked by us twice before finally talking to us. She told us the booth will be ready in a bit and walked off. (Half the diner was empty, but it makes sense to keep everyone in one part of the restaurant). After 10 minutes a waitress came and walked us to our seats. She managed not to say a single word to us at all. I did not realize she was there until my girlfriend stood up.
When we go to our table, the waitress came by to take our order. She also was trying very hard to say as few words as possible. We placed our order grilled meat, a few soups, and sushi at that time. The meat came right away. The sushi however did not arrive for at least an hour, after 3 reminders they finally brought sushi.
They were really fast for getting kimchi and tofu, but we had to continuously look for them for more water...
We also asked for them to change the grill, she came looked at it, poured water underneath it and was about to leave before I asked her again.
Also the price was more expensive than on website (see pictures for updated price)
Food (4 stars)
We tried lots of things so we will go from bad to great.
Sushi (1 star): we ordered a shrimp handroll - there was barely any shrimp in it.
We also ordered spicy salmon roll - it had tons of rice, and was simply not tasty.
Grilled Food:
Pork: 3.5 stars
Shrimp: 4 stars - however I would advice against getting it since it is a pain to clean them.
Beef: 5 stars - we added teriyaki sauce on it while we were cooking it.
Calamari: 5 stars - really great, make sure you cook it for a while
Short Ribs : 5 stars
Miso Soup: 5 stars
Salad: 3 stars - very thin slice of tomato and lots of green salad.
Green tea was an extra $1.
The final cost came to $50 with tax and 10% tip.
Ambiance: (4 stars)
It is a modern ambiance. Half the place are open table, and half are booths.
Overall, I would go there again but would not get any sushi and expect service to be quite bad.
