Not sure about the hype and why it got almost 5-stars, i am quite disappointed. Food: meat quality is fresh and good. However, flavor is a bit salty for my taste, especially the beef tongue and carpaccio. I find many BBQ places taste better, just not as good of value as this one. Service: everyone has a nice attitude but the restaurant is understaffed. My servicer checked on my 5 times for the entire 90mins meal. 1 greeting and taking my first order, 1 for the bill. The other 3 times is like 30mins apart each. A few times I have to grab someone else to service my table like change grill and bring me silverware. Don't get me wrong, the server is nice but he just can't serve 5 tables with 40+ people total. Atmosphere: nice decoration and clean. Great place to hang out with friends and family. Not a great place for special event. Value: great value for the $33 option! I find the $45 option is not as great of a deal as they limit you one order per person for all the upgrades dishes and the portion of each order is small.

Still one of the best Japanese BBQ in town. Gotta try when you visit Vegas. Great service and kids under 4 is free of charge. I will keep coming here if im in town.

Be prepared to wait! (90 minute was our wait time) Everything we had was delicious and super fresh! Would have given this place a five star…if Service was a little bit more efficient. Overall worthy of trying if you have the time.

Only problem was we were a group of 6 and were sat at a table designed for 4 and 2 of the seats were up against a cover that was knee high and very uncomfortable for the person's sitting next to it, while at the same time they would seat others with just 2 customers and larger tables even though we had entered first and requested a larger table. Other than that food and service was great, just make sure not to get packed into a really bad corner seating area with 5 or more in your group.

My friend and I ate here and it was good The meats where really good The customer service was good I would recommend to join the waiting list at least 1 hour prior to prefer time to eat at least on the weekends it can be a long wait.

Strongly recommended to go there at non peak hours and if you want to get seated soon with max waiting time of less than 20-30m, even for 2 ppl, you should go on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. The food is fresh and service was attentive. We chose the $33/person set and was able to order quite a few dishes. The Sushi rolls were a bit disappointing though, a bit hard. Would focus on ordering the meats and vegetables as well as the carpaccios, salads, soups next time! Overall speaking, good quality! Including 20% tip and 2 cups of jasmine teas, it’s under $100 total bill. We’re happy!

There are 3 menu levels, A, B and C. A is cheapest with most limited selection of choices. B is the way to go. C is Kobe beef and not worth the up charge. The meat is seasoned perfectly and service is quick and friendly. You cook the food yourself on your table grill. Remember to turn it and not burn it. The price is affordable especially considering it is all you can eat. Great value.
