Talk about a great experience on a Saturday afternoon my family and I decided to come in and we had a great experience. Everyone is very friendly and professional. The food is amazing. You guys should definitely come down here.

Staff was friendly & service was decent. Place felt clean but dated. Have had better tasting hibachi rice elsewhere; here lacked a few seasonings. Meats & veggies were flavorful. Grill served noodles & broccoli & carrot that other, similar Japanese steakhouses do not offer with entrees; however, place seems to be cutting corners here & there compromising overall quality. Prices seemed higher than other similar places we often eat at in our city (not CLT).

A lil disappointing for the pricing on the service and ambiance. Food was delicious and that's what's important We sat a table with some duds. That family was no fun. Waiter was good but forgot things. Chef did the bare minimum. Restaurant is a lil old.

Been to this location at least 8 times and the other night for my daughter's Bday it was amazing, the steak was tender as well as the chicken and i must say the chef kept our table laughing! Well done on my visit!

Beware! If you are newer to the area you will want to make a reservation if you’re wanting hibachi! We didn’t realize and drive 30 minutes, got there at 5:00 p.m. and were told we would have to wait until 9:30 for 3 spots at a hibachi table. Luckily there were still tables available for regular dining and at the bar. We sat at the bar and had the NICEST server. The sushi was wonderful and the hibachi meals that we were still able to order from the kitchen we great! Definitely a good place to come with family and friends.

Fantastic experience because of the sushi chef, Didit. Thank you, Didit. The sushi was excellent and I thoroughly enjoyed watching you create sushi rolls. You are a genuine craftsman.

Got here early to avoid the crowds. Was seated immediately and waitress took our drink order quickly. Drinks came in a timely fashion and soon the meso soup and house salad with ginger dressing was served. I ordered the shrimp and red snapper plate. Great fun watching the chef cook everything in front of us. The snapper didn't have much flavor, but the shrimp were big and juicy. All in all a nice night and dinner out.

Chef was good prepared lobster incredibly not dry perfect seasoning and steak perfect. Noodles a little disappointing had more black pepper than I've ever had before. Also didn't care to pay extra for friend rice. In the big picture not a big deal. Over all pretty good.

Sushi was yummy. Staff is friendly.
Place closes early, by 9pm. Get your orders in soon. We got there by 8 and could only get one order in. Could've gone for another plate.
