They have a wonderful menu with a variety of dishes. We got the sushi and it was amazing! There were a lot of unique specialty rolls to choose from. I’m looking forward to going back and trying some of those Korean dishes. The service was also great. We had a baby and our server was very friendly and helpful. We cleaned up the mess but she never made us feel bad about it.

Sushi is a new adventure for me, so I’m always looking to try new things.
My roommate introduced my husband and I to this location and we loved it at the first visit.
I got the Korean love pot , hubs got a variety of sushi and so did our roomie.
Everything tasted SOOO good. I even found a sushi I like!
The small location is perfect to go to!

Ww were looking for a sushi place close. Went here on a chance. We loved the selection and special rolls. Should have taken pictures before eating but so delicious. Definitely worth going here.

The hibachi is gross. Ordered both a shrimp and steak hibachi, two separate meals. $15.50 for six pieces of shrimp and the majority of the meal was zucchini. One little piece of onion, some mushrooms and some under cooked carrots. The sushi is alright, but the hibachi is a "no go" for us.

Ordered through Doordash. The gyoza were the best we’ve had since moving here, egg rolls were good, my husband loved his sushi and kids tempura was great.
I was disappointed with the “pad Thai,” which was not even remotely pad Thai. No sauce, no bean sprouts, no peanuts, no egg, it was basically just stir fry noodles with vegetables that don’t typically belong in pad thai. It was so oily and only tasted like grease, I couldn’t eat it. I wonder why it was even on the menu. Also we waited well over an hour for it to be delivered from a mile away (which is fine, it was very fresh and steaming hot) but after all that time, we were still missing our dessert.

May '19: We visited a year ago, and I wasn't impressed but also figured we'd try it again eventually. After our second visit, I can confidently say "Never Again!"
The theme of this restaurant is FROZEN. Frozen rice, frozen meat, frozen veggies. The quality of all items was poor.
There was absolutely nothing fried about the fried rice. There was no flavor and, in review of my previous visit, last time the veggies within the rice were still partially frozen.
I ordered the Steak Hibachi and I cannot believe a restaurant would pass this pass as Hibachi. My steak was so tough, the fork could barely pierce it. I had ordered Med. Rare, emphasizing the Rare, yet it came out Medium to Med. Well. My husband informed the server the steak was tough and overcooked and suggested that maybe it accidentally got cooked too long, to which she told us not it was not overcooked. Ummm...yes. Yes, it is. I didn't eat it - I couldn't eat it. I could barely chew the meat and the entire dish lacked flavor.
The vegetables are definitely not fresh and prepared in house. Fresh vegetables would have different cuts and characteristics, with an expected slight crunch to them.
We ordered the Dynamite Roll, no salmon sub tuna. I found it quite difficult to choose a sushi roll, and not because of exciting options. There were very few raw rolls and all the others didn't seem appealing to me.
The fast-food mall hibachi is better than this place. I can appreciate restaurants such a Phillip's Sushi even more so; their meat is fresh, vegetables cut in house, actual fried rice, and all made in the back kitchen.
Don't waste your time or money, or taste buds!, here.
April '18: The booths give the illusion that they seat 4 people, but you have to be tiny people in order to fit. I realize I'm now 7 months pregnant (so we had to push the table out so my belly would fit), but we aren't obesely wide. My husband and I sitting next to one another was a tight fit! It was quiet and somewhat dark inside. I saw plenty of beer and wine; it does not appear that they have a liquor license. There is a sushi bar where they create the sushi, yet no seating is offered there.
The Clear Soup was quite tasty and the salad (ginger dressing) was large, yet swimming in a small pool of water. The ginger dressing was not my favorite. Their shrimp sauce (or yum yum sauce) was good - not too watery and not too bland.
The shrimp were quite plump and the beef had the distinct taste that it was cooked in butter - not that that's a bad thing! The shrimp did still have their tails on them so beware before you put any in your mouth! As for the vegetables, there were mushrooms, zucchini, onions, 1 piece of green pepper (just 1 piece on both of our plates; which I'm fine with because I don't eat them), and carrots. Overall I enjoyed the vegetables however the carrots tasted boiled (think soft, mushy) and then as if they were thrown onto the grill last minute. I don't care for mushy carrots so onto my daughter's plate they went - and I took her zucchini. I took one bite of her chicken and it seemed okay - but there wasn't much flavor to it. As for the fried rice, the peas in it were still frozen, it lacked flavor, and truly it seemed as though it came pre-packaged and frozen and then microwaved prior to serving.
My husband didn't care for his Teriyaki Chicken. He said the quality of chicken wasn't great (he was expecting a breast like he's had at other places) and the sauce wasn't think; it was watery. It was swimming in it's little Bento Box compartment. It came with fried gyoza as well. All fried gyoza I've ever had has ever been pan fried - these however, were fried-fried. Like deep fried in oil. I was not a fan.
The portions were small. While I realize this is lunch time and it's cheaper, whenever we go to Phillip's Sushi (which also cooks hibachi in the back kitchen and never in front of you), the portions are absolutely massive. There's plenty of veggies, rice, and protein and we always have leftovers.
