Had a fantastic time with Jordan, our chef and Jayden, our server! They both are great at their job and have great sense of... humors. The food and presentation were above and beyond expectations! Even made new friends Mark and his gal Alex, too bad wedidn't get their last name(s)... Highly recommend! BE ON TIME!! Read more

Wife and I try to eat here for our anniversary every year, but the last couple years have been difficult. We were able to make... it this year and we're delightfully surprised to be served by "The Guy" himself; Cy!! He was so entertaining and the food, asalways, was 2nd to none!!! This establishment is a "MUST" for anyone who enjoys the atmosphere of a Japanese Steakhouse! Read more

This was, by far, one of the best experiences I have ever had during dinner. The chef was impossibly talented, the servers were... nice, and the drinks were well made (according to my date). I had the lobster platter, and my SO had the scallops, andeverything was well done. Our host for the night was very funny, making every moment funny and providing entertainment for thewhole group. The pricing was good too, being only about $100 even after buying some of the most expensive stuff on the menu. Irecommend this to anyone who likes Asian food. My only advice: please.make a reservation. Read more

Always a fun place! They put on a great show, the service is always attentive, & the food is top notch! Everything here is... served teppanyaki style meaning the chef comes out & makes it right in front of you at the table usually while putting on a showconsisting of highlights of his skill with the utensils & some jokes to make you chuckle. All the food here is made with anAsian flare & is absolutely delicious! They also offer a little birthday celebration where the person having the birthday gets adessert & your chef that evening comes out & does a photo with that person. It's always a fun time & delicious meal! Read more

We decided to dine in and make the most of the experience. Our oldest has never been to a hibachi restaurant so we want to treat... him to something new. He enjoyed the show and the food. The chef at the table did a great job. He was friendly, engaging, andwas exactly I expected. Of course the food is always larger portions than you expect. The rice, the veggies, everything adds upby the time the meal is over and we all left very full and with leftovers. Great place and we?ll definitely be heading back. Read more

First time there, we went to celebrate my birthday. It was a last minute decision and when I called over the phone they said... it'd be an hour wait and they recommend reservations months in advanced. Well, we still went, as it was my birthday and it wasspecial enough to wait whatever necessary. Walked in to put us on the waitlist and a party of 4 had not shown up at theirexpected time, so we were actually sat right away. I don't know if it was birthday luck or just great customer service, but Iwas very happy. Our chef "Deadpool" (lol that was an inside joke you'd only understand at this table) was very entertaining, notwith spatula flipping and making sounds but, meh, who needs that lol, even better he had great conversation and jokes throughoutthe whole meal. He had the whole table laughing and interacting wich I loved! He cooked us a Great meal and was attentive withthe kids sitting at the table. Our server Fabi was excellent. She was on point with drinks, plates and very sweet, she wasawesome with the kids. Would love to have her as our server when we go back. We loved them both. I have 0 complaints about thisplace. Great food, great service, great experience, I had a great birthday! Will definitely be back to celebrate another one orany special occasion. Ohana did not dissapoint! Read more
