If you’re craving Korean bbq save yourself the money and the time. Do not eat here.It took one hour for them to get the bbq meat to us-which is raw. Waitress said twice our bbq is coming.The rice was dry and tasted like plastic.The meat was dry and had no taste.Someone at our table also wanted bbq but the waitress argued and proceeded to talk him out of ordering it. Unacceptable.I’ve been a waitress all throughout my twenties and was appalled by the lack of service and attentiveness.Our 4 person meal was $160 and the appetizers were to feed two people. I barely ate the food so I left spending over $200 and still hungry.Our food was supposed to come out in this presentation that was a bamboo box but it came out on the plates.Waitress did not have remorse or apologize. Although the extra appetizers we ordered (because we were hungry) she took off.Our drinks were not refilled once. Dirty plates sat on our tables the entire time. Others in our party ate earlier and ended up leaving but these were not cleaned away.In all we were here a little over 2 hours.We saw the owner walking around checking on tables and not once did he stop by to ask if everything was ok.

This place has one of the worst service ever. We waited about 15 minutes before anyone acknowledged us for water.When taking our order the waitress fought us on what to order. We want what we want, but she demanded that something else was better. After waiting one hour we finally get our uncooked BBQ meats. How does it take 1 hour to bring food that is uncooked??! The meats are all old and tasted so bland. I’ve tried a lot of BBQ places and they didn’t even try to make it marinated.For $250, you would expect better service. Our waitress didn’t even refill our waters or ask if everything was okay. I’m a small business owner and I don’t want to support this place anymore or would recommend anyone to try this place.EDIT: I spent 1 hour on the toilet in excruciating pain that night.

I used to love this place but it has gone down hill! Ised to rat there 2+ times per week.They recently raised some of the prices, and whereas I used to go in here and the servers would know me and be super friendly, now I haven't seen a smiling face in months. I feel like a burden when I go in there.Today, first, I tried to call to order food to go go and their phone wasn't working, then finally worked but you can't get through to a live person to place it to go order? So I drove over there. Then, they randomly decided not to honor their lunch special even though I have ordered it on Sundays many times before. So I ordered a roll to take home for my sick daughter and we get all the way home only to find out that they didn't include soy sauce. How the heck are you supposed to eat sushi without soy sauce? So it was a complete waste of money and time to drive over there. I'm so disappointed because this used to be my favorite restaurant. They need to pull it back together.

If you have any sort of food allergies, DO NOT go here.I let our waitress know about my onion allergy. She assured me that there will be no onions in my food. I was then served food with onions, but cut up into smaller pieces than my husbands meal to hide the fact that there were indeed onions. The onions were on the bottom, so I had eaten a few without noticing and was SICK for many days afterwards. When we pointed it out, she said “but there wouldn’t be any flavor without it”.Also, I asked if they had brown rice and the waitress said yes. But, I was served fried white rice, not brown rice. When I mentioned this, she says “sorry we don’t have brown rice. Then, why did you tell me you did?I would not recommend this restaurant.

Delicious food! We did the all you can eat option B. Of course the cook was amazing (?) Replacement food orders came out quickly. Very clean inside.

Sushi was amazing,I got The Queen Roll and The Bubble Roll ?For Appetizer I have two times the Avocado Ball, just amazing flavors.Great atmosphere, the place looks very modern and clean.The service was great, but could be a little faster.Overall I will come back to this place to try some more sushi rolls.

I saw this place from the side of the road when I was driving back to my hotel.I stopped in and the place was super clean, sat at the sushi bar. I ordered the crazy tuna roll, 2 pieces of unagi, and the black dragon roll they also told me that I was there at happy hour and I could choose from one of several appetisers for free so I just chose the edamame. The Unagi was very good. And the other 2 rolls were absolutely out of this world. I did order the crazy tuna roll with no spicy mayo but yes to the Wasabi mayo. Extremely pleased. I will most likely go back while on this trip.

This place is amazing,fresh fish,stuff very n ice,next time I'll join happy hour,they have free App and beer buy one get one! that is wonderful!!!

Food was amazing. Everything had flavor. We even had leftovers. I must say I could have done with less sweeteness in the fried rice.My son and I got the Hibachi Seafood Combo.My husband got Hibachi Steak and my daughter Beef Fried Rice.I recommend this Sushi place.
