    Great food with good Hibachi tricks, some of which I have never seen before. However, the noise level has quite high. Furthermore, the chef forgot to separate some veggie fried rice from the chicken. It was still very tasty.

    I wish I remembered the waitress name but she was great! It was a good ambiance and we were able to carry a conversation around lunch time on a weekday. It is inside the Laura Hotel. We had the lunch special which was an appetizer, main and a dessert. The Brussels sprouts > wings > mac and cheese, but all were solid. The main course we both got the braised rib over collard and sweet potato mash. My sister thought the mash too closely resembled baby food in appearance and texture. However she enjoyed the collards and rib. I thought the collards were undercooked but the mash was ok to me and the rib was good. The dessert was very small, which I didn’t mind too much because I’m always looking for just the taste of dessert and not necessarily the calories that go along with it. Overall, it was a solid experience.
