    The garlic noodles were not very good. I used to absolutely love them and really only came back to the restaurant for it but this time it was not good at all. The spicy pork and umakara pork were good.

    First, let me say, we knew we were in for a different experience, but having to cook EVERYTHING was a bit MUCH. The food was good, but at that price point, I was someone else cooking for me. We had a reservation for 6 and I feel like we were placed at a table for four. We all (3 adult-sized kids and 3 adults) crammed around ONE grill and attempted to all cook $200 worth of food. NOT EASY!!! I also have a 3-4 inch burn on my forearm because the table was so cram packed full of stuff that I couldn't cook the food without hitting something. By the way, when a reservation comes in to Open Table and specifically mentions a celebration, do something for it!! We were there for my son's college graduation dinner and no one made made him feel special. BUMMER!! Service was great, though...so there's that.
