Do not order a soda here $5 for a soda and a beer is $4 opt for a water. $5 for a soda is a bit ridiculous! Portions are a bit smaller than other hibachi places and no substitutions were allowed also cook did not want to be there clearly he did nothing for excitement. Another family at our table ordered her kid the steak hibachi and was given shrimp instead when stating that to the cook he placed the blame on the server and never opted to correct the issue. Also it is very hot they have a fan blowing but doesn’t really help.

This has been our go to as locals. We always sit at the bar. Sushi is fresh and delicious! The owner has been here for 25+ years. It’s a St. Pete Beach institution!

Went for my daughters sweet 16 birthday dinner. The sushi is amazing we were at the hibachi grill. The food was decent, not too much entertainment though. The chef was older, but we still enjoyed our meal. Didn’t really care for the Ginger salad. I’ve had much better but everything else was pretty good. Drinks are pricey $14, but decent

The food here is expensive but it’s worth it! All the food we ate was very good, and we especially enjoyed the white/yum yum sauce.

I did not have a good experience seven years ago but decided to give it another chance. To be honest, it was not a pleasant experience at all. The food was incredibly bland, lacking the flavor that one would expect from a Japanese restaurant. I felt the food was cheaply thrown together. To make matters worse, the manger was terrible! The place was dead (one table had a few people) but we felt rushed to hurry and order! Overall, I was highly disappointed. The lackluster food and appalling service left a bad taste in my mouth, and I won’t be returning. I would not recommend this place to anyone on vacation looking for an enjoyable Japanese dining experience.

We went for dinner, ordered drinks, sushi, and hibachi dinners. There were 8 in our party, we had reservations at 5:30. We arrived at 5:23 and were seated right away. That’s where the good ended. With only 2 chefs we sat and waited an hour with empty cups, and no explanation why we were waiting so long that’s when we found out there were 2 chefs. White rice we ordered sat in front of us 45 minutes before the chef came. Then they came to cook, the chef was nice but unfortunately the food was not good. Shrimp and salmon over cooked. Steak over cooked. Chicken tasted rotten. Fried five had no flavor. Veggies were flavorless. It was overall a terrible experience. We finished with 3 of the 8 with empty glasses. One was sleeping. But they still made out with gratuity they did not deserve. We were so disappointed that I had to write this to warn people it was a lot of money and now we’re talking about ordering pizza.

Nice little hibachi and sushi restaurant. Took the family while we were visiting the parents and everyone loved what they ordered. The chef was entertaining and very pleasant to visit with. I’m sure we will return and try something else since I saw several things on the menu that I wanted.

The food was terrible and only 2 chefs who are clearly overworked. Don’t waste your money (we spent nearly $300) and go to Kobe’s instead. Chewy steak, dry chicken, ginger salad was sour, soup was overly salty and tasted days old. A special family celebration ruined by the disgusting food. Will never come back. I’m not sure where they get their food because it was below average, not even mid-grade steak for the prices.

We ordered chicken and steak, sesame chicken, and california rolls. The prices seemed high and after we ordered, we thought they were overpriced. The flavor of the meats did not “wow” – we were starved. I will add thay the udon noodles were AMAZING. It was apparent the business was exceptionally understaffed as the hostess was serving tables. Not bothersome, but it took longer than usual to order, receive, and have refills. The restaurant is nice with a variety of decor, but it needs some dusting.

Delish! We ordered two sushi rolls and Habachi dinners and everything was so good. The portions was just right and filling a little pricey but i guess since they turned Out to be good it made up for it. Oh and the beer is real nice and Cold that was a bonus.
