The Scene
Brace yourself for a Japanese steakhouse with theatrics similar to Benihana's. The sushi bar buzzes, but the high-energy hibachi room is where all the action is. Celebratory groups gather to watch master Japanese chefs twirl knives, juggle raw eggs and ignite meats in high flames. Kids shout "Cool!" as the chefs perform culinary tricks.
The Food
Although the show is fun, silver palates will prefer the ultra-fresh, creative sushi. Nibble on the artistic caterpillar roll, a curvaceous critter plated in glowing avocado slivers; Mikado's crunch roll, with crispy shrimp and crabmeat; or the mountain-esque Fuji roll, baked with smoked salmon. Hibachi grill-table specials come with miso soup and a ginger-dressing iceberg salad, both under par, as are the oily pan-fried dumplings and brackish udon. Hibachi shrimp is also forgettable, but buttery veggies and succulent sirloin will have you salivating.

The food was ok, but the place was cheesy. I felt like I was stuck in the 80's with the whole hibachi cook theme going. Not only that, we were treated to a fabulous strobe light show (which came from the fan hood). I thought I was at a rockets game when the lights dimmed. It was quite entertaining actually. But you get the picture.

Literally. The food was bad but when I got to the bottom of the dish I found all of these fish bones and a piece of very nasty hair. I don't reccomend going here.
