"Overall, the food was good, and, as per most hibachi places, the chef put on a good show. Unfortunately, despite our reservation, and my having called ahead to confirm it, we still had to wait 15 minutes for a table without any explanation as to why there was a wait. The man at the front desk was very polite, but given that the restaurant was mostly empty, and we had a well-confirmed reservation, this was very frustrating. Once we were seated, everything was pretty typical. They have a wide menu with good prices. The chicken and shrimp were good. The salmon was underwhelming. This might be because it is not well suited to hibachi cooking. Either way, I don't recommend it. Sadly, they did not serve the shrimp appetizer that was listed as part of the meal. I chose not to say anything as by the time I realized it, I was already feeling rather full. Those of us who ordered white rice had to ask for the waiter to bring it to us, instead of having it come to us after having ordered it initially with our meal. I'm not sure where the disconnect was with the service, but that too was disappointing. The sushi was very tasty. Although, again, they didn't follow their menu description, as one of the rolls was supposed to have asparagus, and it came without it, and no comment on its absence, or explanation why was given. Overall, I would give this place another try, but make sure to clarify aspects of our order and understand that reservation times are more of a suggestion, and likely make the reservation for 15-30 minutes before I'd like to eat."
