Vlad SavelucJuly 2, 2015They cook food in front of you at a blackjack table. It's super fun and not that expensive. You should make reservations one day in advance or more of you have a big group. Excellent for groupsUpvoted Feb 21
Robert GutierrezSeptember 23, 2014Great view of the bay and airplanes. If you like sushi, do not I repeat do not order happy hour. This is a picture of my yellowtail hand roll. On my way to the bathroom.
- Kreme BruleeJune 7, 2013If you don't have a res dine in the lounge! Great view of the bay and planes landing. Same food as hibachi tables plus great sushi and small bites on lounge menu!!
- Amy W.May 5, 2011Never a wait to get a table @ sushi/bar area... Same menu offered. Beautiful view of the bay and planes landing at SFO. You sacrifice the cooking show to get your food quicker.
Courtney P.K.December 23, 2012Order your steak one degree less done than than you usually do. Since they cut it into small pieces, steak often ends up getting overdone.
Jessica WickhamFebruary 23, 2017Went on a Wednesday night and it was fully booked - make sure you book ahead!
Ashton WongNovember 4, 2019You can order the fried rice twice, one to eat there, one to go so you get extra good taste
They use a lot of butter and oil here but it sure is tasty! Valet parking is free and the view of 747's landing at SFO is 2nd to none!
Ramanda SanningNovember 25, 2015Top 5 favorite places! You're missing out if you don't get the fried rice!
JonesOctober 6, 2017Always a good time. Good atmosphere, food not amazing but above average. Very buttery
Molly McCartyMarch 10, 2012The food isn't that great but the show the Chef puts on is really awesome. Ask for Benito or Amadon!
Always add the fried rice to your meal! It's delicious! Ask for a table with a Bay view.
Nayan DesaiMarch 26, 2011Ask for the Diablo sauce and dip some to each bite of fried rice...delicious.
Jill Rachel EvansJanuary 17, 2013Horrible service. I was there alone and was sent to sit in the bar area. Took 15 minutes to acknowledge I was there.. the only person at the bar. Server didn't check on me, didn't offer refills. Lame.
- Need to get in and out quickly and want to avoid smelling like hibachi oil? You can get the same menu in the lounge.
- The rolls are not so hot here but there are a few other things on the happy hour menu that make it worthwhile.
Don’t come here unless you like to wait 45 minutes or longer after your reservation to be seated.
