Food and Dining
Teppanyaki
I won’t be dining here again. The chefs were obnoxiously loud with their utensils, literally SLAMMING them against the metal to create a beat to their songs. I love a good time! But this was obnoxious. The food was not what we had expected. We have dined at many Japanese steakhouses. This did not have the typical soup and salad you receive there. I couldn’t even eat this one. It was probably just a more traditional Japanese dish than I was used to but nonetheless, blech. I asked for hot tea and the woman was really confused and said they didn’t have it in the restaurant they would have to get it from a dining room. Which was odd I thought. My brother asked for Diet Coke and she said she would get it later. Our waters were never refilled. Our chef was great! And the filet and shrimp were great! But I wouldn’t choose this restaurant over the others again.
