Have been here a few times over the years and recently came here the other day to enjoy a team dinner. We had to make a reservation and it was able to make it for the same night. The staff was extremely friendly the bartender I believe is new so she had a challenge making the drinks we wanted. The show was great and the food was exactly what we expected. The meat was cooked to our desired temperature as well. It is a very family environment.

Food was fine. However I was not satisfied with the experience. We were seated at 545 and were checked out at 628. I've never been so rushed at a restaurant in my life. They didn't even give us time to finish our meals before they brought us to go boxes and the checks. And it was a Tuesday night with no one waiting. I will not return to this establishment.

I have dined in and gotten takeout. Both were wonderful! Little hectic while waiting for a table but we have always had quick service and great tasting food. It had been difficult to place phone Togo orders lately, but even when I place the Togo order inside, it doesn't take very long to fulfill. We usually order the Erin sushi roll and fireball sushi rolls....verry good. We always go when we are on this side of town.

Place was dirty. In need of a remodel. Heavy grease starting to show in the hoods. Provide cheesy pillows to sit on. Food was bland. Only good thing we're the servers.

Service was poor. We were seated and order was taken before the table next to us. The chef came and was cooking on the other table and was about half way through the meal before they started cooking our food. We ran out of drinks. When they brought refills, one person asked for another refill, but his glass was not refilled. They did not come back to to check for refills for anyone. They were not on par for what I would consider good service.

Please don't come here. Staff was very rushed, you can tell that they are being over worked. Watch out for the floors because it's very slippery. Chicken was like rubber, Rice is bland. Made a reservation and still waited 30 minutes. It doesn't matter if you make a reservation here you still have to wait. Not a good place to go whatsoever.
