This place is honestly super nice for Alton!
I came her for the lunch special and was pleasantly surprised at what a good deal it is!
What I ordered: the deal is $10 for 3 rolls (only certain rolls). I honestly can't remember what rolls they were, but they were pretty good for the price! I was expecting $3.30 rolls to taste a lot worse!
Also, something nice to note. There was only one waitress working and she probably had 9 tables so it took her a while to get to us. The sushi chef gave us free seaweed salads while we were waiting! It was yummy and very generous.
I will be back! -

Pros: fun environment, clean, delicious food, wide variety of food choices both sushi and non (a good place for those who already love sushi AND newcomers to sushi eating.)
Cons: fairly expensive (one martini + a shrimp hibachi dinner cost 30$,) slow-ish service (took a while for our chef to actually get to our table,) very loud atmosphere with lots of sounds and distractions making it difficult to talk to your own table, alcoholic drinks made a bit too strong.
Overall we did have a great time here but for me and my boyfriend to each have a dinner and one drink our combined bill before tipping was 61$. Definitely a location better for the experience rather than a regular dinner restaurant choice. If you sit at Hibachi be prepared to share your table with other patrons if your group isn't large enough. If you have any sound sensory issues be wary of dining at this restaurant.
In regards to the chef himself, he seemed to be in a great mood. We had lots of laughs and even though some of the hibachi grills 'tricks' didn't work we still had lots of fun. -

We went to Shogun for my daughter's birthday and had a party of 16. We had a reservation and were seated after our entire party arrived. It took what seemed like forever for the waitress(who checked her personality at the door) to take our drink order and then another 15-20 minutes to actually get our drinks. They finally took our order. Because of the size of our party, half of us had one chef and the other half had another. The chef that took care of the other end of the table was one we had before and he was great. Our chef was a complete dud. He basically just cooked the food. We had kids in our party and they were looking forward to some entertainment. We got none. I noticed him with another party after he had cooked for us and he was really fun. Anyway, I ordered chicken and some of the pieces were rubbery. It kind of took away my appetite. The food was good but, for the price, it should have been great. My husband and I paid almost $50 and we didn't even have an alcoholic beverage. Tables that came in after us were done and gone before our chef starting cooking our meal. We have been here before and always enjoyed our meal but I have to say that I am in no hurry to go back. They just don't seem to believe in any kind of customer service. There is too much competition around so they are going to have to step up their game or they won't last.

This restaurant has some of the slowest service I've seen. We waited at least 30 minutes before we were even seated and another 30 minutes before being approached by a server asking for our drink orders. The food was fairly good, but the bad service most definitely outweighs the food. We even waited for another half hour for our checks. We will not be coming back here anytime soon.

Just spent 1 hour and 20 minutes trying to get lunch sushi. Walked out after 3 tables were served ahead of us. No response or excuse. Waitress had nothing to say. Very sad
