Their sushi bar is fantastic, but for special occasions, I like to go for their hibachi. Watching the chefs make it in front of you is always entertaining, and they all have a lot of tricks up their sleeves! The food is good and it’s a fun experience!

Friendly waitstaff, appealing atmosphere, and most importantly, consistently appetizing food. Their sushi is wonderful and have never once left me unfulfilled, and their other dishes are equally appealing. Also, (currently, anyway) for every $10 spent (I believe), you get a free miso soup or free house salad – and their miso is very good. To top it off, they have a small selection of desserts, my favorite of which is their mochi ice cream. Well worth the trip, and affordable, too!

What a treat to find a place this side of the Pacific (or at least the Rockies) that serves up okonomiyaki! They offer a variety of okonomiyaki a small selection of other dishes like teriyaki beef and yakiniku, the latter of which was eaten by my picky dining companion, who said that the meat was very good, tender and lean. Though they do not have grills at the table like some places in Japan, the okonomiyaki is something that you have to experience to fully appreciate. It’s somehow both filling and addictive, but most importantly, the taste never gets old. I finished my entire plate and could have had more! They also offer some Japanese beer (Asahi, Sapporo and Kirin), sake (served warm – the traditional way!) and plum wine (Which, having had it for the first time there, I can say is fantastic).

Very good, an enjoyable experience. Typical good Japanese food experience – except for the sushi conveyor belt! This is so rare outside of Japan, and such a treat. There was a moderate amount of variety on the belt, but they were almost all specialty rolls. I would have liked to see some traditional pieces, but it might have just been the time or day I went. All in all it was a satisfying experience with very palatable food and a decent choice of alcohol, too.

Decent Irish and American food. Their Donagal chips and the dip they make for it are worthwhile in their own. Another favorite is the Guinness Beef Stew. Typical Irish pub grub, but a well-kept atmosphere makes it nicer.

Typical American food. Their French Dip isn’t bad. Often full of loud, drinking-types. Service is so-so. I’ve had mixed experiences here.

I have never had bad service here. I loved it, then I worked there, and then I quit; and never have I not been treated well and given the same quality of food each time. Try the Cheese and Tomato sandwich or the Herb and Cream Cheese pretzel!

Typical diner food. Its real plus is the fact that it is open 24/7. Late at night, you sometimes get obnoxious and rowdy types, large groups or tipsy patrons. Still, it’s convenient.

Decent food, good service. Just what you would expect from the chain. My favorites are the French Onion Soup and the Seared Ahi Tuna Salad.

Pub grub. Decent service, all right food. I reccomend the Guinness Beef Stew. Though I have not tried it, I also hear all right things about their pizza.
