Took visiting friends here for dinner and had a good time. We had a couple of vegetarians in the group and they had got options as well. Service was fast and the chef was very nice - he entertained with the performance while also being friendly. The cocktails were good and we left the place stuffed after the meal.

Great hibachi spot... large portions. Our chef was lively and friendly, food was cooked perfectly. Noodles, rice, chicken, shrimp, lobster all delicious and not overcooked. The veggies were a little plain but no complaints, the other parts of the meal made up for it. Reasonably priced for hibachi. Would come here again for a birthday.

Be prepared to wait a long time on half price sushi days and whatever you order, you can't take home or else you get charged full price. The hibachi always hits the spot!

Stopped into Danbury for business and drove down the street to this very busy (for a Tuesday evening) sushi and hibachi restaurant. Sat down and enjoyed their Volcano Roll and Jalapeño Tuna appetizer. Food tasted fresh and vibrant. Definitely recommend this place!

Wonderful place to eat! My family and I absolutely love this place! Everyone is so friendly, it’s never loud, there is almost always an available table, you get an outstanding amount of food, and the gentlemen who cook in the hibachi are wonderful! We ALWAYS enjoy the “show” and The staff are always extremely attentive and make myself and my kids have a wonderful time! Thanks for being such a great place to visit!!

The attention to you from the moment you walk through the door is a breath of fresh air. They enquire if you're here for Hibachi or Sushi as they have different seating areas based on your choice. After seating you within minutes, your server is back to enquire about your food selection. They've got quite an extensive menu, but their drinks are also really great. Their Mai Tai in particular is spectacular. I'd say after one, you're absolutely buzzing !
