Hibachi of Jenkintown

I attempted to love this place, but arrived to find a messy, unmanned environment. After waiting cluelessly for some time—since we had never been there before—a waitress informed us that we would need to wait for a larger party, which might not arrive for another 20 minutes. This is unacceptable. Relying on a possibly absent group to determine whether we can dine here is utterly ridiculous. There was a clear lack of respect, and the place appeared to be a mess. It was obvious they didn’t want to work tonight and were happy to see us leave—less work for them.

Love, love, love this place. Took my son for the 1st time and he loved it, especially the fire show that our chef did especially for him. Great good, great entertainment.

Walked in waited to be seated just to have to find the waiter myself he put my name on a list and said a half hour wait. Just for 20 minutes to go by then he said the cooks said they don't want to cook for anyone. It was 330 in the afternoon and others had to leave as well. As a customer of hibachi for over 26 years several times a year this is it for me. I ended up going to arirang hibachi on old Lincoln highway and even though their food was just ok they earned a new customer with the way I was treated there. I seen used food plates all piled up in the one room as I was leaving also maybe no one just wants to work for hibachi anymore. Time to close the doors.

No wait because no one was there. Host sat us quickly. They could use an update as far as the interior design. Service was good. Food was good until I saw a mouse run across the floor.

Not gonna lie, it felt a little dungeon-y. But in a good way. Like it felt like the setting for some really good japanese food as well as the perfect date night setting. We went on a sunday at 6pm. We were lucky enough to get sat at our own table with our own chef . Usually parties smaller than 8 would have to share a chef. So this felt perfect for our 2 year anniversary. The wait staff was fantastic and the chef was very professional. They made us feel like we were at home. We had the Japanese fried chicken, octopus balls, steak/scallops, and salmon/shrimp. All tasted fantastic. The octopus blew me away because i didn’t know what to expect. It was probably the best taste appetizer. Don’t let the name put you off. Youll want these in your mouth, no diddy. To drink, we had the hibachi coole
