Upon entering the restaurant we were given a pager and were asked to wait in the seating area which was really busy. We had a reservation but still waited for about 20 minutes.
We were eventually shown to our table in a little room. The server didn?t stop smiling and she bowed at the end of almost every sentence! They were all so happy and friendly! The tables seat 9 and as we were a party of 6, another family joined our table.
Our server bought out some drinks, took our food order and came back and tied our chop sticks together which was most welcome since we can't use them!
Then our chef came out who was the most enthusiastic, smiley person I?ve ever met! He was literally beaming! He set about preparing our food, giving us little dishes of a variety of sauces to go with the different meats and shrimp we had ordered. I ordered the Ebi, my Dad had the Kajiki Maguro, my Mum had the Ueno, my Sister had the Tori and DS ordered a child Tori.
The meal was really nice but there wasn?t much of it to be honest and for what we got I thought it was really over-priced. For the 5 meals, 2 cokes, 3 orange juices and an ice cream it came to $170 with tax and tip. It was a great experience though and I do recommend it. I just don?t think we would go again if there was a large group of us because of the 18% gratuity which adds to the cost!
Our dining companions weren't too friendly which was a shame, but didn't spoil the meal. We both opted for the chicken/steak combo and it was cooked to perfection, the rice and vegetables were really good and the sauces were very flavourful.
We both opted for the ginger cake which was light and moist.
The chef was great fun and we can't wait to go back!
The Teppan grills sit up to 8 people, so unless you are a party of 8, be prepared to share your meal with others. On the two meals I have had, we have had nice eating companions.
Here are some of my pictures:
I consider this to be a fun meal - the chefs are very proficient and I love the smoking onion.
Definitely worth a visit.
