Reviews
Update Dec 2025: it’s been a while since we’d dined here. W tried its Kamaaina special , which was chopped up ribeye with rice. It was tasty as other dishes we had here. The service was friendly as before. There’s a $20 AYCE hotpot deal that looked good as well. Maybe next time.
As for the meats, the roundeye wagyu was decent, but the ribeye was hands down the star of the show. It was super tender and flavorful. The restaurant itself gives you the vibe of being in Japan at an izakaya, and the Japanese music playing in the background really added to it. Made me miss Japan. Service was solid even though the place was packed, and the staff was working hard to keep up. Overall, a really great meal and definitely worth it for the promotion
You guys handled that situation amazingly!!!
A hot pot set with good quality beef, fresh ingredients, delicious broth for lunch for $14.99 including mochi dessert and green tea? You can’t beat this. Also their kids menu included rice and fries presented in a cute fire truck, although I’d rather they put karaage chicken instead of sausage in there, so we ordered a separate order of karaage (was just ok). I also ordered their negitoro as a side. The toro itself was blended very well so it’s a very smooth texture with good flavor. I was a little surprised that they used Korean seaweed instead of Japanese nori though.
The service was friendly. Our server didn’t seem to speak English well but he’s nice and polite. The place had a very Japanese feel, wooden benches and dividers. It’s also cute to have a chalkboard for people to sign their names.
The food was overall delicious. For the quality of food, the prices were reasonable too. We would definitely come back if we want some shabu for lunch again!
The Chicken Nanban had no garlic and was incredibly tasty. This is absolutely a Japanese restaurant worth recommending.
Go treat yourself to something delicious!
I am writing this update to address the owner’s response, which contains several inaccuracies. When we arrived, there was no staff present outside, and we did not notice a sign with instructions. Once a server informed us of the correct procedure, we immediately and politely exited the restaurant to wait as requested. We fully respect the rules of your establishment and were happy to comply once we were made aware of them.
The owner’s description of our behavior is a significant exaggeration. While my voice was raised slightly in response to being unfairly accused, we were by no means shouting or behaving aggressively. This is evidenced by the fact that most of the other customers in the restaurant did not even seem to notice a conflict was occurring. To characterize our behavior as a “harassment toward our staff” is a gross misrepresentation of the event.
After this upsetting incident, I took the time to read other negative reviews and unfortunately discovered a consistent pattern. It seems other customers have also experienced disproportionately harsh reactions from the owner, with some reviews suggesting a troubling lack of patience for the elderly or people with disabilities.
The United States is a place built on diversity and mutual empathy. While any business can set strict rules, customers should not be met with hostility and false accusations over a simple misunderstanding. We respect your rules, but we do not accept being treated with such disrespect.

My family and I were really looking forward to a nice dinner, but our experience was ruined by the owner’s incredibly rude and offensive behavior. My mom, trying to be helpful and make space on our crowded table, simply moved a menu to the empty table next to us. The owner immediately confronted us, saying that our behavior was very rude in US and told us to leave.
We have lived in the United States for 20 years, and this is absolutely not a part of American culture. There was nothing about my mother’s action that was inappropriate or rude in any sense. We were completely shocked and offended by the owner’s false accusation and her disrespectful demand that we leave.
This was a deeply upsetting experience, and I have never been treated so poorly at a restaurant. The owner’s behavior was completely out of line and incredibly offensive.
