Our experience was excellent, the food was delicious, service was good but we were left sitting on a table by ourselves on the other side of the restaurant when the crowd was building around the teppanyaki bar, overall experience was excellent though

The service was cordial, the portion of the meal was generous, and the beverages were satisfactory. However, the establishment does not provide assistance for individuals with disabilities.
