I sat in the bar area and was promptly greeted by the bartender at my table. She made a few recommendations for sushi, and she makes one of the best dirty martinis I have ever had. Ask for Julissa, she knows her stuff.
My family and I enjoyed our experience here. The chef was very entertaining and the food was delicious. They did, however, seem to have changed their salad a little - not as good as it used to be - and their prices habe gone up. We used a restaurant.com gift certificate, and even so our bill was well over $200 for teriyaki chicken. I would recommend to this restaurant to add higher denominations of certificates available on restaurant.com. for example, allow customers to buy $50 or $100 gift certificates.
Husband and I came here for our first visit, on our anniversary. We came in about 9:45, so we got a table to ourselves. Our chef, Matt, was amazing as was the waitstaff. We got steak and shrimp (the Alamo) and it was definitely worth the price. The sushi bar looked very enticing, but we were much too full to try it. On the way out we had a balloon unicorn made for our daughter...I'm not sure how often the balloon guy is there, but he works for tips, and is awesome!
Went for sushi and happy hour, not for hibachi, sat in the bar area. Was seated immediately, server was very nice and attentive without hovering. The pacific roll and islander rolls were amazing, the steak tataki rare and flavorful, spring rolls crispy and delicious. Had the sake flight and scorpion bowl, were great! Highly recommend this place for happy hour and sushi!
Moving here from Houston we have been looking for a Japanese steakhouse similar to Benihana's, after our visit, I will say hands-down this was a fabulous experience. The food and the show was better than what we experienced at Benihana's.
First time here. We were celebrating a birthday. The staff did a very nice job making it a special occasion. All meals were good and our table chief, Black Matt, did a great job. I rated Sumo with a 4 instead of a 5 because no staff we saw or interacted with was of Asian decent let alone Japanese. To be fair, it was Memorial Day evening with a skeleton crew and also Matt said he was part Korean:). He was wonderfully humorous all evening so it might have been part of his act to say such a thing.
I had my birthday there yesterday, it was awesome. They were able to accommodate 20 of my closest friends. I've been to Benihana and Osaka, and this by far my favorite hibachi restaurant. The food, service, show, and experience were amazing. My friends had a great time and they also are having their birthdays here. The Manager David is really down to earth and you can tell that the staff cares.
Haven't tried dinner yet but the Happy hour is excellent with excellent fresh made sushi and drink specials. Very friendly service at the bar. We will return!
I had so much fun. Our cook George and waiter Jose were awesome and so funny. Definitely going back.
