I REALLY like the fact that their sushi prices are pretty decent and you can get half rolls ! I was able to try 4 different rolls (can't wait to go back and try more) because of that! Yum & Good Value !
They'll bring you sorbet and sing to you for your birthday. Food is prepared on a grill in front of you, which they clean , and w/o asking my vegetarian meal was cooked first to prevent contamination.
A great hibachi place with good sushi , too. Most fun hibachi chefs around, I think. They have some inventive sushi and I love that you can get half rolls .
If you like hibachi-style Japanese food and sushi , this is your place. It's worth the wait for the group dining, but the sushi bar seating is first come-first serve and serves the exact same menu.
In 2011, restaurant sushi chef Yuya Chiba prepared a fund-raising sushi dish of Kizuna rolls and sold paintings as a way to raise cash to send to the Japan Red Cross and UNICEF Japan Relief effort. Read more
The star of the show was the “Poseidon Roll ,” lobster and shrimp tempura fried, masago, scallions , cucumber , and spicy mayo , in a reverse roll topped with crab and a seasoned sweet soy sauce . Read more
First come, first served seating in the sushi and bar area. Their prices are pretty high for hibachi dinner , but they have EXCELLENT sushi prices. Lots of interesting and unique rolls . :)
Sit at the grill for more food for the same price. Order the Samurai and substitute shrimp for chicken for the same price. Get the white sauce .
Good food for a reasonable price. Even though it is within a mall , it is able to deliver a restaurant vibe and experience.
Forget the sushi...hibachi hibachi hibachi . And get a double serving of yum yum sauce - the stuff is addicting. Seriously.
Jesus was awesome! If you are celebrating a birthday, let them know. They sing, bring out rainbow sorbet and snap a souvenir photo for you!
I love the sesame noodle bowl and less crowded at lunch time 😊
They advertise as the best tasting show in town ... but once you've seen one you've seen them all. Food is the best I've had at a Japanese steakhouse . Ask for the steak special ($9.99 ribeye )
This is a fun place to go with a group - don't be wimpy - use the chop sticks!
Had the Bonsai lunch . A combo of steak , shrimp , and chicken . It was glorious.
Don't get the ginger salad . It's not sweet and has a potent after taste. Gyoza is great for an appetizer though and the 500 sushi is great
Leave without lemon cake and you'll be sorry -
Sushi !!! But their hibachi is good too
They do lunch prices on Sunday which is great bc most places do not do that on Sunday to make more money
Ask for Walter to be your chef ! He's hilarious and he does a great job cooking the food.
This place is amazing! Go here!
The best Japanese Steakhouse anywhere!
Be sure to grab a mint before you leave! It's FREE!!!
They don't have buy one get one free sushi anymore but rather lower prices. Many competitors in Raleigh but still the best. Actually run by cool Vietnamese lady.
You can order hibachi from the bar ! Awesome for solo business travelers like me!
Awesome as usual. Get there early and no wait!!!!
Low sanitation grade 90 I went on the health dept website to find out why and the results made me sick. Plus, if u get sick, no refunds. Just coupons, as if you would actually come back.

Get the regular side of shrimp , they give you a full 4oz. instead of six pieces.
Wings are great
Great sushi and hibachi is always fun here
Staff and they keep your drinks full
Ask for Welson to cook for you! By far, he is the best hibachi chef here!
Everything I ate tasted stale and old.
The bartenders are awful. If you want a drink, sit at a table and order, otherwise you'll be ignored.
Love the shrimp
Love the habachi
Not as nice or inviting since the remodel, no more BOGO rolls , either. Go to Sushi Thai on Lake Boone Trail or Tasu on Brier Creek instead.
A truly wonderful dining experience...
Grilled Steak or Chicken
The hot Sake
Staff is nice
Hibachi , sushi
Solid food but WAY too busy.
Get the California Red wine
Great service
Go to Kanki. Definitely get the Filet Mignon . Phenomenal!
The Budokan roll is AmAzing...simply AmAzing
Mary Roll was awesome!!
Everytime we come it's always 1 HR wait.
Love, LOve, LOVE their pineapple upside down cheesecake!! Their fries are GREAT, too!! - Denzell Smith
Best customer service ever. Sam helped us out a lot. - Jasmine Harris
Lots of options for different tastes. I went to Moe's since I was in the mood for Mexican fare, it was good. - Cortney Hill
Shrimp Rolls are amazing! They fry their shrimp so it makes it more like a fancy roll rather than your run of the mill Kani Roll! - Hello Jenny
Although the restaurant has a Japanese name, and the official menu carries many Japanese dishes, the beef noodle soup is authentic Taiwan style, and is very good. - Po-Tai Cheng
Delicious! I suggest the chicken. The steak is questionable and fatty but the chicken is always yummy :) - Grayden Shapiro
You've GOT to check out the pigments - they're full of shimmery goodness! These ladies are absolutely amazing....psst, there's also a MAC inside of Belk which is equally mind-blowing. - Marissa Monday
Talk to Ariel - very helpful staff - if you need a fun teambuilding project for work, check out the pick a brick wall and get them to help! - Allicat22 W
I like their clothing selections but it is such a pain to get into the fitting rooms! You have to wait ages! - Christian Alvarez
