Steak Hibachi Dinner

Hibachi was good. Chef was fun and interacted with our group. One negative I want to share was the way the bill was written. We know large groups are often added a tip. That's fine. However, the "total" in bold print included a gratuity already. Yet the bottom of the receipt stated the total with a 20% tip is $197. The suggested amount was ON TOP of the gratuity already included. We had also given our chef a $20 tip prior. No one else in our group even caught this until I told them . Sorry but in my opinion this is wrong. Check your bills. ( we did add up from their total to make it at least 20%. Their math was closer to 45%!)

Our chef!

We came here today around 5PM and were celebrating my dads 74th birthday. We've been to hibachi 1000 times and often see the same routine with the chef (which is cool) today however, the guy was spontaneous and definitely read the mood at our table. He was very upbeat and had his own routine that was fun and fresh! He didn't stop when he was finished cooking, instead he made very funny balloon hats for the boys at the table and a tiny dog for my daughter along with swords for the other boys that were seated with us. I haven't seen my father laugh that hard in a long time! Wish we got his name (I added a pic of him off of a video I took) for the next time we visit Sakana. Food was great- as it always is!

This is a really cool spot. The like the vibe of the restaurant and the sushi is pretty solid. I love the fact they have Uni here.

Love the atmosphere here. Such awesome memories here from birthdays to graduation celebrations. Will say the quality of food seems to have decreased after COVID and prices higher but still love coming here and ordering takeout.

This really is a fun place for asian food- kam was our hibachi chef foe the night and he was an absolute delight. Sushi is always good and servers are very helpful. The food is good- standard hibachi. It's the people that make the experience.

They had one bartender there named TJ. He was awful. This was last year. He was too busy taking selfies and just rude.

Late lunch on a Friday and had the place to ourselves!…read more I love the kids menu that comes with crayons and little chopstick holders. Kids Menu items have good variety: carrots with butter 5 steamed edamame 5 crispy tofu stuffed bao 4 fried chicken stuffed bao 4 vegetable spring roll 5 scrambled eggs 6 three deep fried dumplings mama chang's pork OR lemony shrimp dumplinas 7 noodles plain udon noodles 5 chicken or beef over udon noodles 7 rice baby bok choy over white rice 7 chicken or beef over white rice 7 ---------- Loved the Dan Dan noodles, bao and udon we ordered, although the chocolate cake wasn't my favorite and the homemade fortune cookie is a cute idea but really small and a little bland. I wish they would bring back the long bendy kids straws! Street Parking, but hard to find spots.

Well-known Asian fusion spot in the South End neighborhood of Boston. Co-founded by Joanne Chang…read more(hence the name +Chang) who also founded Flour Bakery (which I love). Modern and elegant vibe inside with kind staff willing to explain the menu in detail. The first time I went here years ago, I was a bit disappointed. The menu is more so small plates/tapas style. My parents and I came for lunch and found the food to be extremely salty and although it was Asian fusion, I thought that the Asian flavors were quite lackluster. I gave it another try a couple of years back with a friend for dinner service and found the food to better this time around. We shared their eggplant, salmon rolls, lemon shrimp dumplings, and tuna two ways. Eggplant was plump and I believe had some Thai basil or other aromatic stirfried into it which I appreciated. Salmon rolls were fun and I appreciated the sauce. Lemon shrimp dumplings were oily but packed with flavor and I also liked the creamy tangy sauce that came with it. Tuna two ways was the favorite; big fan of crispy rice at sushi restaurants so if that's your jam you'd like this.
