The interior is modern and remodeled. The food was very good. For the bbq meat dishes the waitress brings a little coal grill to the table. For the teppan dishes, they bring a bowl that stays on the hot grill. I recommend the Hikari Salad, Kalbi, and Intestines and Cabbage. But overall, I loved everything I ate. The ownerchef is the manager that workedworks at Hakata Yamaya so if you like it there, you will definitely like it here. The clientele is all Japanese.Since they just opened, the service was a little slow. I'm sure it will get better overtime. The only gripe is the plaza this restaurant is in has a small parking lot.I will definitely be coming back here. Give this place a chance
