The only thing that could have topped off the Brunch would have been a small complimentary birthday dessert or gesture to match the thoughtful start.

You're thinking of teppanyaki. They do have a grill in the back that they cook on but I mean at that point, everyone with a flat top grill technically is considered teppanyaki. Actually, I didn't see a grill back in the kitchen with my own eyes - I only assume they have one back there. They have sushi, hibachi, and pad thai. Feel free to make your own deductions. The sushi was good - we liked the rolls we got! Asparagus roll had 5 or 6 pieces in there instead of just one. The simple tuna roll was good but a little large and clunky. The hibatchi chicken had that nice maillard crust on it and the flavor was good. Chicken may have been dethawed in the microwave prior to cooking as it had a bit of a springy / rubbery interior. The price was good and the servers were nice even though they didn't seem super informed on the menu even though they had worked there a few months.

Lol I took my sister to lunch yesterday and we took a gamble and tried their spicy tuna and it was amazinggggg! This is gonna be my new favorite and go-to spot for sushi on the WA side!! My sister got a roll and tataki. I tasted her tataki and it was fantastic. I'm allergic to seaweed so I always get my rolls with soy or sashimi. Reyna was our server. She's so sweet and kind. She said they could accommodate the soy wrap and said they could modify a roll for me. I ordered: a spicy tuna roll with tempura shrimp, cucumber and jalapeño, soy wrapped, with spicy mayo sauce drizzled on top. It's perfection. Their spicy tuna actually has a kick of spice to it. Literally so good!! My sister and I got a manicure earlier today and were telling the ladies at the shop they should check it out Kobe. And then later we talked our mom into going to a late lunch today so we could get the spicy tuna fix again. Lol two days in a row spicy tuna bliss. Funnily enough we saw another person come in two days in a row as well. They had late lunch the same time we did yesterday and today too. Ps we also loved the veggie spring rolls. It was delicious and the sauce reminds us of a Filipino sauce we like. This place is fantastic. It's a small restaurant that has just enough seating to feel like they could fit a decent amount a people during peak times. It was very clean and they should be serving beer and saki soon (picture of the sign added). I'm sure we will be back very soon. If you wanna try a new spot in Hazel dell, check them out. They're in the same lot as the oil change/ bowling lot. Across from the laundry and Thai delight 12/10 for me. Thank you!!

Service is warm without being cloying, the kind of hospitality that doesn't announce itself, just shows up and refills your glass before you knew you wanted it. But here's the real move, the thing nobody tells you: come for happy hour. This is where the place drops its shoulders and shows you what it actually is. Not the polished dinner-service version. The honest one. And the fried chicken. Look, everybody makes fried chicken now. Most of it is a lie. This isn't. It's crisp, it's generous, and it costs a fraction of what it should, which in a world of thirty-dollar entrees feels almost like an act of civil disobedience. Order it. Order another one.

From the moment we walked in, the personal touches were amazing. They had personalized our menu, left a signed congratulations card on our table, and even scattered rose petals across the tablecloth. It made an already special night feel truly unforgettable. Our waiter, Scott, was fantastic and funny--he made the entire evening so memorable! Pro tip: Do yourself a favor and specifically ask for Scott when you make your reservation. We ordered from the Prime Hour menu, which is an absolute bargain. You get to choose between soup or salad, two different entrees, and two different desserts. We both went with the seafood Tagliatelle, and wow. It was so rich, generously loaded with halibut, scallops, shrimp, and prosciutto in an incredible lemon pasta sauce. Note for future diners: They do automatically include a 20% service charge on the bill. However, Scott's service was so exceptional that we happily tipped extra on top of it. Save your pennies, do yourself a favor, and book a table ASAP. You won't regret it!

Parking was a little tricky for first timers. Most of the parking is street parking but there in some underground parking available. My friends ordered the filet mignon while I ordered the Sirloin steak medium rare with grilled prawns. We shared the sauteed mushrooms and the crab mac and cheddar cheese. My steak was very good though the outside was a little crispier than I like it. I have eaten Argentinian steak before at another restaurant so i guess this is how it is cooked in Argentina. The mac and cheese was very good though the macaroni noodles seem way large. Service was impeccable and you do get what you pay. Noise level was moderate.

It was a busy lunch time, but we never felt neglected. Our server did a wonderful job. We choose a table outside in the sunshine, it was much quieter outside so that we could have a nice chat.

I am absolutely loving exploring the area around my new home!…read more About two blocks away is Uptown Barrel Room, and I think I may have just found my new favorite neighborhood spot. It's close enough to walk to, which makes it even better. Honestly, every time I walk through the door, I almost want to start singing the Cheers theme song. This is now my third visit, and each time I've had a great experience. The crowd is incredibly friendly, and there's just something about this place that makes you feel welcome. On my first visit, I sat at the bar and met Randi, the bartender. She is absolutely amazing! She knows everyone by name and has that wonderful ability to make you feel like you've been coming there forever. I started with the calamari, and Randi set me up with some chipotle mayo for dipping. Excellent choice! I finished with the combination pizza. At first, I thought the crust was sourdough, but I was told it's actually a bagel crust. Regardless of what you call it, it was absolutely delicious! My second visit was about a week and a half later. I sat at the bar again, and Randi looked at me, smiled, and said, "Tony, right?" Now THAT is pretty amazing! Remembering my name after only one previous visit--and with a week and a half between visits--is exactly the kind of personal touch that makes a place special. Of course, I had to order the calamari again. This time I also tried the fried chicken. And if you're looking for a big portion, this is definitely worth checking out! For my third visit, I brought a couple of friends along. Candace took great care of us and did an amazing job as well. We started with the Italian meatball soup, and it was phenomenal. We also tried the fajita tacos, and they were absolutely delicious. While sitting at a regular table this time, I noticed some pretty impressive accolades on the wall. Uptown Barrel Room was named Best Wine Bar and Best Seafood in 2023, and Best Wine Bar again in 2024. It's always fun finding those little neighborhood gems, especially when you're new to an area. For me, Uptown Barrel Room has quickly become one of those places where you can walk in, see friendly faces, enjoy some great food, and feel like you belong. If you're in the area, go in and give it a try. You will not be sorry! And if you see me sitting at the bar, just come say hi. Apparently, Randi already knows my name. Cheers to discovering new places and making new friends!
