What our guests are saying
We rented out the space for a private graduation party. It was perfect. The food was cooked great and spread out for us catering style to self-serve. Prices were reasonable for our group and included various protein options (steak, chicken, and shrimp). The spicy sauce was especially spicy, which I like. Would def visit again.

Look, the food was amazing but the atmosphere was even better. Very clean and welcoming environment. The service was great, friendly and food came quickly. I got the Oki roll which was made perfect, as well as the steak add shrimp hibachi bowl! You won’t want to go anywhere else in the Chicagoland area for hibachi, guarantee. The portions are also very large, which is great!

The food is well seasoned. Everything had good flavor, tasted fresh. The meat was tender and cooked well, rice fluffy, vegetables were great, too. Food was made to order and the cook time was less than 20 minutes. I'd definitely make the trip again.

I’ve visited this location a few times now and I haven’t been disappointed yet. I usually do take out and eat while I’m at work. It still tastes good after reheating. This establishment is definitely on my top 5 list of hibachi restaurants in Chicago. I’m my opinion, it is way better than Benihana which is not even on my list. That says a lot based on the comparison of restaurant reviews.
