It exceeded our expectations from tempura to yaki soba. Everything was fantastic. The California roll was a bit dry and lacking in flavor. The service was amazing. The staff was very welcoming and warm. It's definitely worth a return visit; I'm looking forward to it.

Such a fun experience! We had never been to a Japanese barbecue before and got the wagyu sampler. It was delicious and fun. Imagine paying extra to cook your own food 😝 !! But it was a something different and exciting. The staff were super helpful as well!
