    It was a very busy Saturday evening, so I didn’t mind a little wait. The chef was nice, but please ensure all chefs are wearing gloves. Our chef’s hands looked like he works on cars, which you might imagine isn’t the best thought when you’re about to eat the food that person is cooking. I was totally grossed out. The chef at the next table had gloves on as well as a mask. When leaving, I noticed that some chefs had on gloves and others didn’t. Maybe it was this particular chef’s hands but it was very gross and made us uncomfortable.

    We were lucky to get the private room (at a reasonable charge) without planning ahead. After turning off the music, it was the perfect noise level for two adults who are hard of hearing and four sensory-sensitive children. Tiffany and German were absolutely amazing. German was especially great at interacting with three of my kids and Tiffany was the epitome of understanding with my one son who is profoundly autistic. Her attention through the whole meal was just the best. Everyone had a great time and the food was obviously delicious.

    Terrible experience. We had a 6:30 pm reservation for a hibachi table, but when we arrived, we were told there would be at least a 30-minute wait—what’s the point of a reservation then? We ended up sitting at the bar, where our food took 40 minutes to arrive and was both cold and dry. To top it off, we never got our appetizer. The only saving grace was the bartender. She was incredibly sweet.

    We had a 7:15 reservation, waited about 40 minutes to get sat and and didn’t start getting served till around 9:30, portions were pretty small as well. I feel like dining here is just for the name and the show(which wasn’t extremely interactive) Overall I wouldn’t return.
