As many, we went for a birthday. Made a reservation a few weeks out and arrived at our scheduled time 6:30 because it was our first dinner out with our newborn 4 week old baby. We ended up finding out they were behind and weren’t sat until after 7pm. Not a huge deal normally but again with such a little baby you never know when they’re going to need soemthing so time is valuable. Everything worked out but we had to wait much longer than we would have liked for a reservation. Will probably try somewhere else next time just based off of the time restrictions from here on out.

We had reservations for Wednesday night at 6, a non busy time. When we got to the restaurant we were seated promptly and was told our waiter would be with us shortly. There were three other tables in our area that had customers, not the Hibachi tables. We were not acknowledged by any waiter or bus boy for 15 minutes, not even water. A waitress did come by 2 other tables to service them but did not even look our way or acknowledged us. We left but told the hostess why we were leaving. She apologized, but too late! We were very disappointed of this lack of service. We have never had this experience before! There are so any other places to eat in The Woodlands, we will certainly NOT be back.

A very quiet and nice restaurant for dining. While the chef was very entertaining and super fun, the hibachi items lacked flavor. We did order udon noodles and sushi to go which were pretty decent. However for the price, I personally would not recommend it. I also specified that this was for a birthday dinner for my mom and the hosts didnt seem to have read any of the notes and sat us with another loud group till I specified we had wanted to sit elsewhere.
