| - Judging: Location, Food Quality, (Food) Variety, Service, and Decor/etc.
Feel free to skip to the food variety section
Location: It is near multiple lodging areas, stores, and other competing restaurants. The area is well kept and clean, and has a good customer inflow.
Decor: The store on the outside has a lovely dark granite (or something that looks like it, feel free to check yelp photos) entrance with pillars, and golden (colored) doors with statues to the side. In the inside there are small plants, and other side decorations depending on the season. There are color changing lights on the ceiling. There are 2 main main seating sections.
Service: It can depend on the server, but I would rate it 3.8. The servers are usually on task, but when it's busy or on slow Buisness hours they may refill your drinks/take your plates away slower. Overall the staff is nice, and if you need anything just be sure to ask.
(This isn't raining the hibachi staff, it changes/depends)
Food variety: The restaurant has a wide variety of seafood. (Some being very Asian/unique).
Ex: Grilled Mackerel, Tilapia (bone in), Salmon, Crawfish, Octopus, Shrimp, and many others (they have boneless fish too).
There also is a sushi bar (compared to another close by competitor "Rivers" (aka. [used to be] Tokyo) is made with higher quality ingredients (Doesn't fall apart as easily, and has good consistency). Though they may not have sashimi, they do have a good variety of flavors.
Ex: Fried tofu sushi (it kinda looks like a small boat), California rolls, etc (sushi is not my forte, personal opinion)
Don't worry they also have non-seafood options!
Ex: Fried rice, Sesame chicken, hibachi chicken, Stir-fry veg+beef, Lo Mein (I think that's how it's spelled), etc. There are many others, but Hibachi!
Hibachi= 3 different stir-fry flavors (teriyaki, hibachi, and something;there is a sign).
Some of the thing you can get to have stir-fried is: (these aren't all, but most of them)
-Raw: Beef, pork, shrimp
-Uncooked: Noodles, etc
-Vegetables: Broccoli, Zucchini, Bean Sprouts, Onion,
-Etc: Pineapple, etc
They also have a soup section beside the Hibachi. They provide a large variety of fresh cooked soups, but there are some pre-made in the buffet.
Ex; Egg Drop soup, others (I always get fresh cooked soup)
A few of the ingredients that they add with the (some varieties of) soup I dislike (tripe, etc), so just be sure to tell them clearly not to add it in. You also can choose what noodle you want. It is pretty much like pho, except you don't get a plate of vegetable on the side. They have a few unique styles of the soup: (some of these are special request) Duck, pho, udon, curry. (I'm pretty sure anyone can get curry, I usually get it.)
For kids there is Mac-n-cheese (I wouldn't say it's the best quality though), the seafood (shrimp) Alfredo is better. There are spring/egg rolls, fried shrimp, vegetables (broccoli w/ stir fried meats, green beans, etc), and a salad bar (probably gonna head to the dessert sections), Ice cream, sesame balls, regular/buffalo chicken wings, and etc.
Food Quality:
This varies so overall I rate it 4, it depends on what you get. Some foods are often not eaten like the Mac-n-cheese, so they aren't that fresh. While some foods run out as soon as they are put out (fried shrimp, sometimes crawfish). Some of the foods may have a too oily appeal on some, but not on others.
I usually get the green beans or some type of vegetable in all my plates, so it never gets to oily, and the soup (curry) can depend (sometimes to spicy, sometimes creamier than spicy; has coconut milk in it).
Overall, this is a great place & I would recommend this to my friends/coworkers/etc. I would go back & eat there, especially on cold days.
P.s: curry soup is a distinct taste, don't order it if you know you won't finish it. (Don't waste food, personal opinion). The main soup broth that they have isn't bad too, you can order it spicy.
