I'm not from Orlando, but my family and I traveled a long distance to celebrate our new high school…read moregraduate. We came excited to enjoy a nice lunch together, laugh, and make memories. Unfortunately, the experience quickly turned into one of the worst restaurant experiences I've ever had. Our server, Eva, was extremely disrespectful and had an attitude from the beginning. I understand everyone can have a bad day, but the level of hostility we experienced was completely unacceptable. The menus we were initially given did not include a kids menu, so I ordered a lunch chicken special for my child. Later, after seeing my niece's kids meal arrive, I politely asked if I could switch my child's order before the food was made. Eva immediately told me "No." When I questioned her response, she called me an "asshole." Yes -- an actual customer was spoken to that way. I reported the issue to the manager expecting professionalism and resolution, but instead the manager was just as rude and disrespectful. When we asked for another server, he responded with profanity and hostility instead of trying to fix the situation. We were not asking for discounts or free food -- we simply wanted respectful service and a different server. After being told we were "more than welcome to leave," I did exactly that. The remaining members of our party -- a group of 21 people -- packed up and left as well. This was by far the worst restaurant experience I've had in Orlando. I would absolutely not recommend this restaurant, especially for large parties or families looking to celebrate special occasions. Customer service and basic respect should never be optional.

Our experience at this hibachi spot was mixed and a good representation of the "get what you pay…read morefor" mantra. Good portions, very good prices, but mediocre food. The steak in the steak hibachi was kind of raw (and we didn't order it that way) and lacked flavor. My 7 year old carnivore daughter didn't go for it after a few pieces and she loves steak. There was way too much bland fried rice and the veggies were also pretty tasteless. The Katsu chicken was probably the best but even that was only just fine and not very distinguishable from any other fried chicken I've had. Sushi was over-saturated in some type of soy based sauce (spider roll). Seaweed salad was too sweet but it was edible. Gyoza soup was fine but a bit salty. Fried Oreo desert was actually probably the best thing we tried here. Service, prices, and portions were all fine. Taste and quality were not. I needed to chug water after this. I probably would only come back if I didn't have better options.

GIRLS DINNER WITH DAD ADVENTURE!!!…read more Me and my two girls tried Wakame Sushi and Hibachi for dinner tonight. Newer place in Auburndale with a nice interior aesthetic or ambiance. Modern, but similar to most Sushi places of this level. We started with ordering our drinks. The server was definitely young and new to being a server. Not a complaint, just not at a high level of service knowledge as of yet. I asked for no ice in my Mt Dew 3 times and she still brought it with ice. She was very friendly, pleasant and attentive. She just needs to work on her listening to a customer and following through with the request. I'm sure she will get better with time. I say this b/c she also forgot the soup for the table next to us that ordered the hibachi. We then ordered our food. 1 chicken yakisoba, 1 Philadelphia roll add cream cheese, 1 clear soup, 1 Cold Maki roll & to finish an app of chicken Tempura!!! Check out my pics of the menu for details. The chicken yakisoba had very little sauce which resulted in zero flavor. The portion size was nice, just wished there was more flavor and more sauce would have helped that. It was very dry and bland. The Philly roll was good exactly what it was supposed to be and fresh!!! All the Sushi was super fresh. The clear soup was bland and tasted a little in the watery side. Not much flavor to it. The Cold Maki roll was good, but for 15.50 I felt I could have made this at home for all 5 of us at around 30$, but it was good and I did enjoy it, just not the price. At 12$ this would be a better Food to Value ratio. The Chicken Tempura app had the best Food to Value ratio at 7.50 for 3 pieces of perfectly tempura cooked chicken, 1 broccoli, 1 slice sweet potato & zucchini, 1 mushroom and of course the tempura onion ring. I enjoyed this the most out of everything we had!!! I would definitely go back, but I would definitely order other items to try and only reorder the Tempura!!! I will update my review next time we go, but for now it's a 3 Star place to us!!! AS ALWAYS TRY IT FOR YOURSELF!!!!

*chefs kiss* There…read morewas a slight wait because it was Easter weekend, however it was worth it. From the service to the quality and portion of food, it's worth going back every time we go to Orlando. We all chose to eat Hibachi and I'm so happy we did. Many of the reviews said Hibachi was best so this is why we chose it. I can't give a fair assessment on the A La Carte but the Hibachi is a definite! They do take reservations so if it's a holiday or a busy weekend, I'd suggest making a reservation. The restaurant is good for all occasions: families, date night, birthdays....all the days!

I loved how the customer service here was very helpful. The rolls are priced great, my spicy tuna was $7.95 and the special rolls are between $13-$15 so not bad at all and they were all filling! I ate two rolls and was satisfied. I love it here at night the ambiance is low lighting and nice for dates or friends to talk. The habachi is also well price for everything that comes on the plate. My favorite thing here is the boba tea taro flavor. This place is small and Tucked away so don't miss it!

Thank goodness there are pix in the menu and I picked two that not only looked good but sounded great. They were delicious. The flavors blended together nicely. Mission accomplished.

Like an upscale version of a food court with each having its own building but they all share a courtyard. We've been to a couple of the restaurants here, but this one was my least favorite. We both ordered the crispy rice tuna burrito. It was huge! And it was very crispy but there just wasn't any flavor. We ended up having to ask for eel sauce for something to give it some flavor. Now the service was wonderful. There were only two people and they handled it pretty well. I also didn't like the hot sake we ordered. It tasted like a mix of wine and hot vinegar. Having said all that we are going to go back and try the poke bowls because those did look amazing!
