We went for a new experience when we had guest in town. We had been to similar restaurant in Vancouver. We had a group of 7 and had amazing food and service. The girl on the phone when I booked it (open table would not take 7) wasn’t awesome so I was a little worried I would be annoyed but thankfully our waiter and the manager came to ensure we had a great experience so it was and ended very well. Highly enjoyed the entire meal. We’ll be back and hope to not have to call! Lol.

We mentioned that our heating stove wasn’t getting very hot and the server offered excuses. I sought the manager out who agreed to move us to another table and all was good. Fun to cook and chat with family - sure end up with a lot of plates on a crowded table - perhaps some stackable options might work better? Fun and recommended.

There can be a larger serve of the meat. The rice in the Bibimbap is not dry enough-taste like porridge! The fan of the BBQ is also not strong enough.

Food is always good here. It’s also super busy so I understand the wait times but we waited quite a long time for the food to come out which is interesting considering the plates are raw meat. We ordered a few cooked appies and those came out before the raw meat did.

Unfortunately they did not offer AYCE so set menus or a-Le-carte choices were the only options. We chose the $90 meat lovers set menu for 2. The food overall was ok but nothing spectacular. Some cuts of beef that came out were average at best and a couple others (ribeye) were marinated really well with great taste. The Ramen ordered separately was surprisingly the best part. Quite disappointed with the dessert that was included with the set menu (S’mores). I wouldn’t expect crackers, chocolate, and marshmallows as a Japanese dessert. Total spent was $150 approximately. I personally feel like this meal shouldn’t have costed more than $100.

This was our favorite restaurant in Calgary.. must have been sold to a new owner as nothing is the same but the seats.. smaller portions, bone in my chicken, poor quality meat and we bought the $35 option as nothing else was in stock. They never offered to change the grill.. last time we go to the Calgary location.

The promo for the sapporo pitcher was misleading. It says the food that they were giving on the side is “unlimited” but it really wasn’t. And our server was sarcastic when we tried to asked her again for this promo. She made us look like we don’t understand the promo at all. Next time DO NOT put the “unlimited” sign if you won’t do it at all!!!

Ramen version of their noodles was soooo bad. I think the noodles added were frozen as it was still sticking with each other. The broth on it does not taste like ramen at all. Takoyaki and calamari were good though. BBQ beef is good but there are better Japanese BBQ somewhere else for that price.

Overall fair experience. Our grill wasn’t burning properly and when we asked the heat increased we were told the grill isn’t working too well and makes a loud noise. So the server offered to switch our table. For the amount of money paid, we should at least have a working grill.

We expected really good barbecue since it's not AYCE and it's on the pricier side - it's not better than any other AYCE in YYC. The service was really good, our server was very attentive. But the food was underwhelming.

Food was so delicious, and prices were not bad for the more “prime” cuts of meat. However you do have to order quite a few plates if you want to really fill yourself up on the meat, which can add up in price pretty quick, so be prepared. Definitely try out their side dishes! We had a large group and the staff were very accommodating to us. Overall a great experience and will definitely go again.
