"We may have gone in with higher expectations due to previous reviews and ratings, but still would have rated the experience just above average.
We were seated at one of the teppanyaki tables in the corner. Although it did feature large glass walls overlooking an outdoor waterfall to the side, the main views were of those on the patio dining tables. The view opposite of the outdoor view as that of the kitchen door and wall with several scuff marks from the portable chef tables that frequently move in-and-out to service the other teppanyaki tables.
We could have easily looked passed all that since our chef was skilled and the service was prompt and friendly. However, the food quality was average at best."

"First time visit but we will be back. The service was excellent, our drink glasses were kept full, the show by the cook was excellent and the food was fabulous. What more can you ask for."
