I’ve been eating here for 20 years or more and the foods always been good, it’s always been pretty clean and the owners/workers are friendly. The hibachi Steak is EXTREMELY GOOD!! Best I’ve had anywhere besides a Japanese Restaurant

I LITERALLY eat at this location every week if possible and have been doing so for years now. I have eaten hibachi at restaurants in several states at different times and this place still is the best place despite what others say. The women working in the front know who I am when I call or come in without calling and they are always happy and nice. They have yet to give me bad food once or got my order wrong even to the smallest detail it's right on time and priced great. So don't believe the everything u read or hear and go see for yourself. It's worth it

I was hesitant to try this place because it honestly looks a little sketchy, but I'm really glad I did. The Hibachi Chicken was hot, fresh and tasted delicious! Make sure to order extra white sauce.

Thanks for preparing my special order Shrimp & Broccoli just as I asked. Your Shrimp Egg Rolls were tasty, but, your rice... Wow! Don't know what you do to it but it was very tasty!

I’ve been coming to this restaurant for over 10 years, and it’s hands down one of my favorite places to eat. In all that time, I have never had a single issue, everything has always been spot on. The food is consistently delicious, with generous portions at prices that are more than fair. It’s a family-run business, and you can feel the warmth and care they put into everything, from the way they greet you to how quickly they serve your food. The staff are genuinely kind, attentive, and always make you feel welcome. You can tell they take pride in their food and service, and that’s rare to find these days. The flavors are authentic, the portions are hearty, and the atmosphere is inviting. I’ve brought friends and family here over the years, and everyone walks away happy and full. If you want amazing food, great value, and truly good people running the place, this is the spot. I can’t recommend it enough!

Okay, this place is great, got there at 8:23 with a pick up order. I ordered 10 minutes ago. Food is ready and hot and it taste so good. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a quick bite or lunch or you want some good takeout they do have indoor seating, but I did not sit down and eat! White sauce had some Spicey flecks I liked it! 22$ for 2 chicken hibachis. I will say I only got one sliver of a carrot and 2 piece of an onion. So broccoli heavy. But I don’t mind!
