The food was amazing! By far the best sushi/hibachi restaurant in gulfport. The service was wonderful and our food got to the table in a reasonable time. Also the atmosphere was very classy and comfy. I will definitely be coming back! read more

Once seated the service is pretty rapid! Choice of menu or all you can eat. A bit pricey but you can partake of a lot of options! Soups ( no egg drop sadly). The miso and onion soup were flavorful. Appetizers. The cheese Rangoon is passable. The dumplings okay. If you do the AYCE be aware portions are small but the staff is quick to remind you that you can order more :)! Not the greatest hibachi or sushi I've eaten but it is decent. Hibachi comes with fried rice or noodles and vegetables. Dinner options significantly more! I'll frequent again but will need to be in the mood for what they serve. None of the food is exquisite or memorable but it is AYCE and they will keep it coming. Dining room attractive. When full it is surprisingly not too loud. That is awesome as they can seat a lot of people! (Not sure how many but easily over one hundred). Booths or tables available. Sorry no pictures, this time. Be aware- the pictures I saw on their listing are NOT the same as the size of portions we got from the AYCE menu. 6 bite size pieces of meat or chicken per order. 2 pieces of sushi per order. To their credit you can order multiple servings. For example 3 tuna sushi will bring you 6 pieces. They are very accommodating and patron friendly. They do not like wasted food! read more

The atmosphere is spectacular with really great food. There is a menu for all you can eat with the people who can put away food. The staff are professional by the look and service provided. This isn't a traditional hibachi as the food is prepared in the kitchen and delivered to the table. Dirty dishes are promptly picked up by a team of staff working together. This represents wonderful management. read more

Came across this restaurant on social media. We tried the hibachi scallops and shrimp with noodles. Both had good flavor. The only thing I would change is for for the noodles and veggies to have more char and less sauce. The broth served with the udom was not very tasty. It really had no flavor or body. The noodles, veggies and shrimp were okay. Won't order again. The squid and seaweed salad were both fresh and had good flavor. The tempura didn't really seem like tempura, but rather just breaded. We tried the octopus and squid sashimi. The octopus was tasty but the squid was odd. We did try the Godzilla roll. Was a pleasant surprise. This was quite tasty. The last thing was tried was the fried Oreo. That was delicious! read more

I decided to try this spot for the first time as I'm a big fan of sashimi and it can quickly become very expensive to order it à la carte at other restaurants. That being said, I have tried the majority if not all of what they offer on their menu in the past elsewhere. I wasn't sure how fast service would be and I can typically put away quite a bit of sashimi, so I went ahead and ordered a bit under what I could normally comfortably eat. The order came extremely quickly and I was surprised. The miso soup was fantastic, and the quality of the sashimi was overall decent but I would say only 75-80% as good of a quality as what I find elsewhere when ordering à la carte. The tuna was a lot lighter of a color and overall most seemed less flavorful other than the salmon and the yellowtail. Be aware though that for many of the sashimi pieces they are larger than regular sashimi. When I order à la carte sashimi at other restaurants, it's a small, thin slice. Maybe 1/2 a bite. Many of these especially the salmon were thick and chunky pieces. Like they took me 2 or so full bites each, and I had ordered expecting small thin sized pieces. Also, as soon as my order arrived, I noticed that there was egg, and egg makes me sick to eat. It was in the sashimi menu and I didn't intend to order egg. I thought it was a type of roe and it wasn't labeled as egg. So I did order four. Also, when I tried the octopus (the small white pieces of tentacle) the texture was slimy like chicken or fish that's sat too long in the refrigerator and it did not taste fresh. My immediate thought was if I continue eating this I may get sick. So a few moments later when my server came by to check on me I discussed the issue with the egg and octopus with him, and expressed concerns about being charged if I didn't eat it and he said not to worry it would be fine and I wouldn't be charged. So I work hard to finish my meal even though some of the sushi is not the best quality and the portions are bigger than normal because I did not want to waste. It took 45 min to an hour from the time I was served, but I finished all of the food except for the octopus tentacle (small white pieces in upper right corner), egg slices, and a roll that had a "honey wasabi mayo sauce" and was completely drowned in it. It's all I could taste and the horseradish (wasabi is horseradish here) was burning my mouth so I couldn't eat it. I let my server know I was finished and mentioned the issue with the wasabi sauce roll. He got a sheepish look on his face, looked down at the floor, and said he would go get my check. Next thing I know this random lady came up to me and started berating me for not finishing all of the food without introducing herself. I assume she was a manager? She never said. I tried to explain I had discussed with my server and mentioned the issues with each item, but the more I said she continued to cut me off and call irresponsible for ordering 4 each of the egg and octopus if I wasn't going to eat them. Which, I wasn't too full to eat them, the issue was one tasted as if it had gone off and the other was ordered in error due a menu issue. And there couldn't have been more than one egg used in making these.. but anyway she's berating me in front of everyone else in the restaurant and it was really embarrassing. My server decided to hide out during the conversation and wasn't there to verify that he told me I wouldn't get an up charge for the egg and octopus. She's not listening to any of my concerns and becoming more irritated so I said what are you intending to charge me? And she dramatically stalked off and entered information into the till comes back and says $8. I said fine just to be able to leave. Server comes back around with my check acting like nothing had happened and said he hoped I had a good night. I honestly don't think I'll be going back. I would understand the up charge for the egg perhaps, but no one even apologized for the octopus that tasted like it had gone off. And they blindsided me when having a "manager?" Come over who didn't even introduce herself and berated me loudly in front of everyone assuming I was trying to cheat them when I tried very hard to finish all I could. That and at the beginning my server said "you get a drink with the AYCE buffet. What would you like?" And I was charged an extra $3 for a coke and didn't even get one refill. I don't think I can really bring myself to give them another shot unfortunately. read more

I never write reviews... I understand that the food industry is hard and some restaurants have bad days. With that being said, when there is a problem that the customer comes to you with I expect as a manager to you try to improve this. We went here for my sister's sixteen birthday and wanted it to be a very pleasant experience. It was very nice inside the restaurant and I had heard good things online. The waitress was nice but did not really know what she was doing. My mom asked for a regular menu because she did not want all you can eat. The waitress made it very difficult and it took her asking a couple of times before she ever got this menu. She then proceeded to tell us that everyone who was eating all you can eat needed to just fill out one sheet. (We had a party of 10). Never had I heard that at an all you can eat sushi restaurant and I paused at that because it would be hard for everyone to get what they ordered. I obliged assuming maybe they would just bring it out individually and ask who ordered what. This did not happen!!! They brought everything out on one plate, when asked what sushi roll was what they had no idea. So we all just kind of had to guess and it just felt very chaotic. Basically, it was not a nice calm experience, it felt very stressful. So we already were not having a great experience and then something else happened to take the cake. My sister ordered crabmeat tempura and it was very delicious, until I unfortunately bit into a piece that had been deep fried with the plastics still on it (attached is the picture of it)... I was in shock and so thankful I didn't ingest any of it. I brought this to the attention of the manager and she didn't have much to say. Not much of an apology or anything. I just kind of looked at her in shock and she said she would give the table 10% off which sounded amazing for this mistake that had happened. But you know of course when we got the bill there was no discount of any kind. At this point I pretty much knew she was just trying to shut me up and get rid of us. Anyway... thank you for listening to my rant! Hope I can save someone else from not having to experience any of this! I will not be going back which is sad because I really do love sushi... I'll just go to my safe place which is Fiji in Biloxi! read more

We have been several times and loved it every time- food is great, service is excellent! read more

We went to Izumi and wanted Hibachi to go. I would say others that done in may have a different experience but this was a to go order. Portions were small as if they purposefully were cutting corners to keep cost down. Meat and rice only. NO vegetabless, No soup, No salad, sauces were 1/2 full ramikins. Sushi came without wasabi or ginger. Not happy and felt ripped off. read more

Decided to try this new sushi hibachi place. The inside of the restaurant is very nice with plenty of seating. We were seated right away, but waited forever for someone to come to our table. Just as I was about to get up and leave, a waiter arrived to get our drink order. The menu has plenty of sushi and hibachi options, but like the name of the restaurant, that's pretty much it. We ordered hibachi, but be aware, there are no hibachi tables to sit and watch the food being cooked. Our food arrived pretty quickly and looked good. After trying the food, it all tasted the same. My steak, chicken, rice, and vegetables all tasted the same, with no different flavors. The steak was very tough, and the vegetables were loaded with onions. There are much better options in the area of you're looking for hibachi or sushi. read more
