My father and I found this little restaurant, and it did not disappoint! Our waitress was so nice, the food was really good, and well put together. Not only that but not once did I have an empty cup of water, or a dirty dish in the way. This was a great place to dine and I would highly recommend to anyone in the area. Thank you so much for the meal and great service.

I absolutely love this little restaurant. It is a family owned business and the wife (waitress) is the sweetest thing and never forgets a face. I went for several years without going in and once I returned she remembered me and even asked about my son who was only a baby the last time I had saw her. He's now 8. That's impressive. The food is very good. I highly recommend.

Food quality and is right up there with Brazilian Steakhouses and other high-end restaurants. I myself got a salad with the fried pork wonton appetizer, then a hot green tea with hibachi shrimp and ribeye, alongside fried rice. There wasn't one low note through all the dishes. Everything was perfect. Be prepared to pay for quality!

Stopped by these local restaurant and had a great surprise with the food and taste. The food was fresh as well as decent portion. We ordered steak and veggies and they were fresh as well as the sauces were good. Prices were a bit high but I didn’t mind the prices because of the quality of the food. This is a quality over quantity restaurant and definitely will come back again. Was very clean establishment.

My friend and I were looking for a place to eat when we stumbled onto this little restaurant. We were greeted by a nice atmosphere upon entry, and a friendly waitress took care of us! My soup was good, I liked the tempura flakes they added. The gyoza are excellent, but it's best to let them cool a little as they are hot, and my Teriyaki steak was nice and tender! Will come back someday!

Just had our first visit after driving past it so many times. We were pleasantly surprised! What a nice little place! The server was so courteous and helpful and the food was every bit as good as what we have gotten at the big famous Japanese Hibachi restaurants. What we did not get is the show because the food is not cooked in front of you. We each had soup, salad, shrimp, vegetables, and then he had ribeye and I had scallops. We also each had a soft drink. Our bill was right at 40! Oh, and the place was spotlessly clean with a health inspection score of 96! We will definitely be going again.
