    Fried Rice extra garlic butter
    Natasha T.

    I enjoying stopping in to grab fried rice to enjoy at home. This Thursday night is busy with Birthday parties at the hibachi grill tables. Everyone singing the birthday song of course I sang along. They have added hibachi burritos to the menu and they've several promotions I've received via email. That's what brung me here this evening.

    Was shopping in Chandler Mall, and got super delayed, couldnt make reservations so just walked up to the receptionist and wanted to check if they took walk ins. Luckily it was just the two of us and it was around 8:30pm. Well, never been here, so this was a hit or miss for us. Heard alot of mixed reviews of this place. I think it also counts with the chef that you get. the chef we got, Chef Ricky was fantastic. There was only another couple on our table, but, we had a ball of a time, the chef was fun and very interactive. I, unfortunately have developed shellfish and egg allergies and everyone else had ordered egg fried rice, but, the chef was very innovative and made a special garlicy sauce for the steamed rice i was given. the A5 wagyu was cooked to perfection. I was provided with options of tofu or extra veggies, the tofu was spectacular! Over all quite a good experience for last minute walk in! Do try their sherbet ice cream and their dragon fruit cocktail as well.

    Bartender Jade is such a sweetheart! She modified the dirty bowl mocktail for me so that I could order it less sweet. I was here with a group of five with friends in from out of town and we had a wonderful lunch experience! I ordered my usual Hibachi Steak rare, always love the soup and salad and all the fixins that come with lunch! Our Hibachi chef one was fantastic, so friendly funny in personable. Our server was a bit impatient and kept interrupting our conversations and over explaining things which we all found a bit off-putting. She also kept getting in the way of the photos we were trying to take with the kids with the onion volcano and it felt like she was rushing us out as soon as the meal was over so my only suggestion would be to be a bit more attentive to the dynamics of a group. We did very much appreciate the photos that were taken of the Benihana memory. Overall it was still a great experience.

My boyfriend and I came to Shimogamo for Mother's Day and ordered the five-course meal. Unfortunately, the experience was extremely disappointing compared to our previous visit. The biggest issue was the service. Our waitress, an older woman, came across as dismissive and unnecessarily rude throughout the evening. When we were seated, she offered complimentary rosé. I accepted a glass, but my boyfriend does not drink alcohol, so he politely asked if he could order a mocktail instead. Before he could even finish, she abruptly responded, "No, you can wait to place an order for that," as if he was trying to substitute the complimentary drink, which he was not. He was simply trying to order a beverage. Later, when the braised beef course was served, my boyfriend politely asked if he could have a spoon or fork. The waitress loudly repeated "A SPOON?" in a mocking tone in front of nearby guests, which made the interaction uncomfortable and embarrassing. As for the food, the five-course menu was average at best and far below what we expected from Shimogamo. The salmon tartare and sushi course were both excellent and showed the quality we remembered from our first visit. However, the remaining courses fell flat. The fried branzino was dry and seemed poorly prepared, despite the promising flavors of capers and cream sauce. The braised short rib felt completely out of place on the menu and lacked refinement it was dry, heavy, and more reminiscent of a chain steakhouse meal than an upscale dining experience. The entire dinner also felt rushed, with little attention to pacing or hospitality. What makes this especially disappointing is that we dined here back in November on a double date and had an incredible experience. We spent over $600 that evening, and the service and food were exceptional. Our waitress at that time was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about the menu. She guided us through recommendations, and every dish impressed us. That's why this visit was so surprising. Shimogamo clearly has the ability to provide an outstanding dining experience, which makes the decline in both service and execution even more concerning. I sincerely hope management takes this feedback seriously because this restaurant was once one of our favorites.

The restaurant is fairly large, and seems like a lot of people like coming here for family/friend dinners. Like the name insists, the teppanyaki is the way to go. Their menu isn't that large, so it was pretty easy to make a decision. I opted for the filet mignon (rare) along with shrimp. Teppanyaki is really more of a show/experience, so the food comes out to you in sections (versus all at once like at a traditional restaurant). The filet was so soft, and was perfectly rare, and the shrimp was so good. I think in the future I'd eat a whole plate of shrimp. I also got to try the yakiniku, and that was also pretty good but very sweet. Their Boo Yah Ka roll was also pretty yummy. It's essentially a spring roll, but with some spice and citrus to it. I felt that the portion was good for a large meal, but my friend who got the chef's combo definitely had enough for leftovers.

It's not really just squid legs had other parts of squid which I didn't mind. It tasted pretty good with slight crisp to it.. Batter had some seasoning which made it tastier. Then my ramen came.. Looked pretty good but portion looked small. But then again for costing $14 can't complain. Broth was nice and hearty and I couldn't quite figure out the flavor. Then I read the description and it said sesame.. Then it made little more sense of the flavor. I definitely would not call it spicy. Ramen noodle was nice and chewy just the way I like it.. Only thing I didnt like was the pork. It was not bad but I prefer the fatty melt in your mouth kind with my ramen. Over all the food was pretty darn good and price was on point. I would definitely come back here again.

Our server forgot about us multiple times!! I understand that it was busy... BUT... we were sitting right where we could be seen, as it has a smaller indoor dining area.  We had to ask to order drinks after waiting 10 minutes. After drinks, our server did check in, and we ordered our appetizers, but it took a total of 45 minutes to receive all except one.  When I asked where the missing item was, the server stated that they were out after checking, after we had waited for so long for it !!   Afterwards, a server got busy again and did not return, so I had to ask another server to grab water, boxes for appetizers and another menu, so I could see if I wanted anything else after.  I looked at the menu, and another few minutes went by until our actual server brought containers for sauces, and proceeded to bring the check WITHOUT us asking.  This whole interaction happened over TWO HOURS !! This was frankly a long time to be waited on for drinks and appetizers when we were hoping to enjoy a much larger meal, but we didn't want to be there all night.  I am really disappointed as it was supposed to be one of our special places. I'm WILLING to give it another try, but if the service is just as unfortunate we will not be coming back. I will say the food is delicious each time, but the prices are high for average quality and slow service.
