    Really, really good hibachi. Steak was very tender. Skipped the rice and got veggies instead. PLENTY of food. Speedy service.

    Don't let the unusual exterior fool you--this place is great. (I think the building used to be a…read moreSubway restaurant and it has been redone.) I always get the hibachi chicken and the portions are HUGE. I like that you can add an appetizer (egg roll or dumplings) and a drink to make it a combo for like $2.50. They have a condiment bar with sauces and also have yum yum sauce behind the counter. Two come included with your meal. As far as fast-food style hibachi, this is the best I've had. The customer service is great and the price is right.

    I visited a year or so again and now I remember exactly why. This place used to be busy all the…read moretime and now there was no one in there. The wings are not fresh. The last two times I have gone to this restaurant. The first time I got them and they were not fresh. I brought them to the attention of the manager. He got an attitude with me stating they were freshly cooked. He gave me a refund, and I vowed to never come back. Well I forgot and came back. What a mistake. They passes off old wings, refried wings as fresh wings. These wings had to have been cooked yesterday. They're very hard very dry and looks like the chickens were abused before they were killed or this meat is not thawed out properly because it's white meat. It should not be dark and the bone should not be bloody neither should the meat. They tell you it takes 15 to 20 minutes before your order is ready but it shouldn't because these wings have been cooked before. Customer service was good this time. I will not return again. I'm going to make sure I review this before I consider ever coming back.

    Came in on a random weekday and left absolutely stuffed and happy!…read more Ordered the Spicy Shrimp ramen and the Rock and Roll roll, and wow--both were fantastic. The Spicy Shrimp broth had that perfect kick without completely torching your face (I got it "medium" spicy and it was spot-on). Tons of plump shrimp, soft-boiled egg cooked perfectly, and the noodles had great texture. My partner stole half my bowl, so that tells you everything. The Rock and Roll roll was a total highlight--crispy shrimp tempura, avocado, spicy mayo, and that sweet eel sauce drizzle on top... it's basically disappeared in 60 seconds. Super fresh fish, generous portions, and the rice was seasoned just right. Service was quick and friendly, the place is clean, and the vibe is chill but not sleepy. Prices felt totally fair for the quality and amount of food you get. Already planning my next visit--Zen Ramen just became my go-to spot in Gainesville. Highly recommend!

    My only regret is that I was on vacation, so I could only eat here once. I could easily take months…read moreto keep going back to try new items each time. So on my visit, I ordered an O.M.G. Sushi burrito that had shrimp. It was outstanding. I also got another sushi roll with tuna that was excellent. Like I said, with more time, I would have liked to try the various ramen dishes, appetizers and everything else.
