Perhaps it was not their best night? There was some high school dance in Chesapeake this weekend and the place was jam packed. At 6:30 on Saturday night there was a 1 hour and 45 minute wait. We had reservations but were told upon arriving that they were running behind. We ordered drinks at the bar while waiting to be seated. It is a decent sized bar, nicely serviced.
We were hibachi bound and dinner was just okay. For a hibachi it is a bit on the pricey side,with most entrees starting in the mid twenties. Service was not horrible, it was non existent. I don't know if they were overwhelmed or just bad. I had to request my steamed rice from the hibachi chef as it was never brought to the table. The waitress took initial orders at the table, and we never saw her again. My husband had to go to the bar to get our second round of drinks. Really? We are spending over $100 for 4 people to eat and have to get our own drinks?! Very sad indeed. The food was good, but with service like that, I'll go to one of the other 999 restaurants in the area.

Yeah, probably you just came on a bad night. Usually, they are pretty good about that. For one thing, I definitely think they are better than Kyoto (their competition). If I was waiting an hour and 1/2, however, I would be annoyed too, especially considering you had reservations, so I completely understand your frustration. I do think they are overpriced.
Someone on a forum directed me to this blog today, so I have been reading your experiences. Thanks for sharing!
