    No AC where our table was and that made it for a very uncomfortable dinner. The food never looks half as good as the pictures.

    Came here for the ramen. Don’t. Seems all the attention and effort is to the BBQ side. That part looked good and those clients seemed to be enjoying it. I ordered the tankatsu. Best thing I can say about it, I asked if they could make it spicy and they did. Broth needed more depth, the pork belly: one was tough and both pieces weren’t cooked enough. Egg was overcooked as well. As stated, the BBQ part looked amazing; the ramen .. no. There seemed to be plenty of staff; just not when you wanted or needed. The hostess was welcoming and made you excited to try the place out.

    They need to hire quality staff. Manager was useless the AC was out and the place was freaking hot with only 2 fans. Get a new manager and the girl that clears the tables. She is loud and cursed the entire time chatting with previous employee. The Asian waiters were the only ones serving the customers but non Asian staff needs to be replaced ASAP. The girl that bused the table sat with customer/previous employee and the were loud, obnoxious and vulgar. Even the manager with braids talked with them but never took time to apologize or chat to the other customers therefore, she should be the first to go. Our bill was over $120 and we will NEVER be back. Worst experience ever. We should have gone to Benihana instead.

    The place gets really hot because of all the burners. The service was good when we had the girl but when the guy I think his name was Andy came he was careless and never got any of our orders, picked up our plates, brought our food to us or get us refills. Food was awesome but I recommend not eating any of the American cuts because the seasoning isn’t the best.

    We found a hair in our food. And they just wanted to brushed it off. I didn’t like the service after. I felt that they didn’t care.
