I had always thought the concept was a gimmick but today I dropped by for the BOGO50% promo (ended today). I have to say I was pleasantly impressed! I got the supreme beef rice ($10.99) and the plate was sizzling when it got here! I tossed the rice (sauce and butter is inside for flavour) with the beef together - yes its a gimmick as I thought but it tasted pretty good! The dish is a bit oily because the sizzling plate is coated in oil to prevent sticking. I also tried the katsu curry and that one is not as good.
The seating at this location is kind of tight - there are 6 table seats in front, 4 (but more like 3 if you don't want to be squished) counter seats and I think two tables of 2 in the back which wasnt open. The ventilation at these small stores in these buildings have always been an issue in my experience - be prepared to get a bit warm. This is not a good spot for a big group, but they have better locations for that!
