There children fried rice is getting skimpy. Three people ordered it, the cook didn’t even put a. half a breast in it, It looked like a 1/4 of a brest.

I had not dined here in a while, so we decided to go early on a saturday, the resturant was busy but not crowded. We had a difficult time deciding what to order as my girlfriend had not had Japanese food before. the tempura appetizers were tasty. I had shrimp, steak, and chicken and my girlfriend had the grilled shrimp. all the food was very tasty, their dipping sauces were excellent, and the portions were very generous. Our server (can't remember her name but she was the owners daughter), was very helpful and patient. Overall a great night out, and by the time we were finished, the place was hopping with large parties going for the Hibachi tables. A local gem, but make reservations or dine early, this place is no secret.

Eric was my chef today in Kimono. He is a great chef because he never overcooked my food and Eric can always carry a friendly conversation. Zee is my server and she is great too. Thank you to both! 🤗❤️

We had a party of 16, so they got to add the tip to the bill. Service was crap after our food order was taken. I wouldn’t have given our server almost a $100 tip had it not been added. Our cook George was the best ever! Wish he could have gotten all the tips from our table.

Today, it took me about 25 minutes to get my Onion soup. My Chicken dish was delicious but service was slow. Most of the time, service is great. :o)

I'm pretty sure our chef was new. He dropped his tools multiple times during the presentations, he over salted and buttered everything that was on the grill. Not a good meal this time at all.
