Dissatisfied… Again! After having been a customer since Tony opened, I can no longer justify supporting this establishment with their inconsistent levels of cooking with wildly inexperienced chefs. Especially when my average ticket ranges from $75 to $150 here, it’s just too expensive to allow for Yuri’s mistakes, and then for me to have to absorb the loss each time that they leave me unhappy. So long old friend.

This was our first time here. When we arrived there was a sign on the door stating they did not have sushi available which was a bummer. As soon as we sat down at the table, the waitress was asking for our drink orders. We didn’t even have time to get our coats off, let alone look at the menu. I ordered a sake which was only 180 ML for $7. She hovered around us until we ordered an appetizer. My wife, MIL and I all ordered the hibachi shrimp. The shrimp was cut in pieces and you barely get any for the amount of money you pay. The kids meal consisted of mostly vegetables and a very thin slice of meat that looked nasty. I would not recommend this place based on price and quality. I thought the “show” would be fun, but the cook just cooked, nothing else special besides making a heart out of oil. I would suggest going to a hibachi buffet where the price is worth it and the kids can pick what they want.

This place was absolutely DELICIOUS! By far the best sushi I’ve ever had. The hostess was very nice when seating us to the sushi part of the restaurant and the waiters were really nice and consistent. I really like that the restaurant is separated from “normal” Japanese food and sushi. Not many people were in the sushi part at the time so it was very nice and peaceful. The wait was a little long BUT SO WORTH IT. It was absolutely delicious. We ordered the Alaskan Roll, 911 Roll, Godzilla Roll, Mexican Roll, Spicy Tuna Roll, California Tempura Roll (we got this twice cause it was so good) , Some roll with eel on the top (I forgot). BUT IT WAS ALL AMAZINGGG. We had to order twice cause we wanted more. 10 out of 10 would recommend lol and I’m definitely going back!

I absolutely love this place. The chefs are fun and entertaining. The food is great. The Golden Shrimp is one of my most favorite things ever! Meet some friends and enjoy a delicious and entertaining meal. Drinks are good but they will cost you so pace yourself appropriately.
