Very nice experience, except it's a bit noisy with lots of families. The kids got quite loud (screaming) at the tables along side of us. Don't really blame the restaurant, rather the parents should have kept the noise level down.

Very bad service from the waitress. The restaurant was literally empty, and she forgot to bring our appetizers. The food and the chef at the tepanyaki table were really good.

Today we were celebrating two adult birthdays and found that our chef Jean, had absolutely no personality, he barely interacted with us. We purposely chose your restaurant for our five year old to be entertained. Also, your prices have gone thru the roof for what you get. You wouldn’t honor the $39 special at the cooking tables. The proteins and vegetables were skimpy. Don’t know that we will return to your establishment. You need to do better!

It had been a few years since I last visited this location, so we chose it for my birthday dinner. Unfortunately, the experience didn’t meet expectations. Our reservation was for 7:00 PM, but we weren’t seated until around 7:35 PM. Given the wait, my partner and I—along with the other guests at our table—agreed to place our food orders along with our drink orders to save time. We placed those orders at 7:48 PM. By 8:45 PM, we still hadn’t received any updates, and our server hadn’t checked on us since delivering our drinks. In fact, one of our fellow diners had to specifically ask for the salad and soup to be brought out. I got up to find our server, who said he would ask the manager to come by. That took nearly 10 minutes. Our chef finally came out around 9:00 PM, and that was the highlight of the evening. Chef Alberto was amazing—very skilled, warm, and engaging. He truly turned the mood around with his hospitality. To address the long wait and poor service, the manager did offer a discount, which we appreciated. However, better communication from the beginning and more attentiveness from our server could have made this a much more enjoyable evening.

Service/staff was ok but place was very dirty in our opinion. Restrooms and dining room just felt unkept with little bits of trash on the floor. Food is average but can’t recommend with its ambiance and uncleanness.

The food was great and tasty, but the wait time was disappointing. Our reservation was for 7:00pm and in addition to waiting about 30 min. just to be seated, it took another hour just for the chef to start cooking our food. We started eating close to 9:00 pm. The service itself was good (not exceptional) but the wait time really took away from the experience.

We waited over 2 hours for a chef to come to the table. And management did an extremely poor job at providing clarity, and had a severe lack of urgency
