I wanted to celebrate my daughter’s excellent school performance with a hibachi dinner, but our experience left a bad impression. When we asked about seating for just the two of us, we were told we had to pay full adult hibachi price for my 8-year-old, with no child or reduced rate offered. It felt unfair and like we were being charged more simply because there were only two of us. Charging around $30 for a child when most hibachi places typically charge around $15–$17 made it feel like the policy was aimed at maximizing the bill, not being family-friendly. As a single mom trying to treat my daughter, that was disappointing and made me feel singled out. I hope the restaurant reconsiders this policy so families can enjoy the hibachi experience without feeling taken advantage of.

Me and my family are always at Hanzo! Tonight we went in for my wife’s birthday at the hibachi table and it was nothing short of amazing. Food was amazing and the chef did an AMAZING job and was very entertaining. We also went in with 13 people and the staff were very accommodating and helpful even though there was a ton of. Hanzo is amazing and my #1 go to spot.

Ordered Pick up. Came home to raw steak unseasoned rice for a $29 hibachi meal and the sushi was sour/ bad. I called and was talked down too. The man talking clearly didn’t care and didn’t wanna hear that his chefs prepared a bad meal.

Was my first time visit. Had the filet hibachi and it was excellent. Service was good and prices were reasonable. I enjoyed my meal immensely.

It’s the best lunch Hibachi I have gotten in the area. They use high quality steak! Highly recommend! It’s a fun place and has a cool sushi bar ever! I don’t know why some negative comments about the price and service here :( I always had the best and lowest price Hibachi lunch here! I guess “picky is always picky” and everyone is different so you can’t please all :(
