This place has potential. The seafood lacked that seafood boil taste. Wish it was more spicy andHad flavor. The price was amazing but the food came up short . Wish they will give you a itemize bill not a bill with their tip .Spent 72 dollars for food that wish it could be better but sushi was delicious .

Not as good as it used to be. The sushi is usually alright but I figured I would take a chance & try something new I ordered grilled hibachi vegetables & noodles. Spent $17 on it & it was a waste. The veggies were not even grilled at all not sure what they did with them it was like they were boiled in water , they were very soggy & not good. Also maybe consider changing the atmosphere in here. It is too quiet, they have a beautiful bar but it is never open & um it’s almost April & they still have Christmas decorations up?? Also it’s a place of business & the front desk has piles & piles of mail just sitting on the desk , Seems like the decor here hasn’t been changed since it opened.

STAY AWAY!!! Please avoid this place, Management is trash. Waited 2 hours for the food to finally be served and then he messes everyone’s order. I’m allergic to shrimp so while I was eating chef decides to throw shrimp all over my food while I was eating, now I barely got 3 spoons in and he ruins it and I am left starving . He noticed his mistake and does nothing but take off the meal off the bill, which is fine but now I’m starving and I just waited here 2 hours for nothing. Left starving. Wait there’s more, there was 2 other couples and they orders was also messed up and waiter begins to blame the chef. No sorry was said or anything. Very disappointed and they are very rude! A discount atleast for the 2 hour inconvenience and messed up orders but no nothing! Trash!

We came here last week after not coming here for a few yrs. Service was extremely slow, considering we were the only people there for lunch. Both my niece's didn't eat what they ordered because it didn't taste right @ all. So that was 2, lunch orders not eaten. My nephew & I ordered soft shell crab 🦀 both were way over cooked, hard & dried out.. I also ordered Baby Tako, the middle of them were ice cold 🧊 ❄️ 🥶 & extremely salty 🧂 😑 😐 there was 8 of us, there. 5 of us didn't eat ANYTHING!!!! The waitress didn't ask any of us how anything was, of even asked if we wanted anything or refills on drinks. We asked for steak sauce, & was told no.... we were shocked 😲On top of the bad Service & cold- terrible food, we had to pay a "SERVICE" FEE , over $18 & still pay a tip... We'll NEVER EAT HERE AGAIN..... DON'T EVEN WASTE YOUR TIME. ITS A DISGUSTING WASTE 🗑 😪 😒

My wife and I went here for my wife's birthday. Having never been here before we wanted to try a variety of things. We started with the cheese wonton and veggie Harumaki. And let me tell you they were fried to perfection. Every bite had a juicy crunchy bliss to them. We moved on to the spicy squid, spicy winter and the kushikatsu. The flavor explosion from the spicy winter. Accompanied by the crisp texture on the outside and pop of flavor from the inside. I would highly recommend the spicy winter for sure! Beware if you can't handle spicy. The Kushikatsu was tender, juicy and crispy in every bite.We finished with some pineapple fried rice and the seafood trio from the grill. I personally don't like pineapple in my fried rice, but my wife enjoyed it very much. The trio was delicious, the scallops were seared just right, the shrimp wasn't over done and the lobster... ooo that lobster was sooo good.And for all that we spent less than $100. Freaking amazing.The customer service was beyond. Very attentive, glass never less than half empty, always checking on the patrons. Kudos yall! Can't wait to go again and bring some friends to try out this diamond in the rough.

My daughter had me try. Dropped 83$. 4 got to give me 1 meal.Overall to salty. Like containers were dropped on floor and food mixed together. Maybe really off day. Seemed like leftovers that were reheated and placed in containers. Only thing seemed fresh was salmon in hibachi dish, rice eh, soup why bother, salad eh. ,wont b back. Sushi en. Dissapointing. No effort. No care.Thank u

Had horrible experience Saturday, June 18th, 2022. Drove an hour to bring my family for what used to be a good restaurant experience. Only to be agast by the food and conditions. Some food was okay, but half the food was barely edible. Still trying to get the memory and taste out out of my mind. Used to be so good here. Never again. Sad.

My husband and I Went today and our reason was our prior visits were great. Today, terrible! Had lobster and filet hibachi. The beef was tough (obviously not filet), and had maybe 12 pieces of penny size lobster pieces. The platter was served with the food warm, not hot. One of the most expensive plates on the menu, and the beef remained on the plate they took back to the kitchen, it got trashed!

I ordered over the phone the Spicy Winter and Chicken Tempura. I was told 25 minutes, I waited 45 minutes. Got all the way home, 10 minutes away, and opened my food. There was no chicken it was seafood and one huge full head of broccoli, 3 squares of squash, a mushroom and an onion ring, all fried. I called and said I got the wrong food please refund me, I was told I have to go back and they will fix. I am not waiting another hour plus...just never going back, ever. The service has been absolutely terrible since covid and I understand they are short stuffed, but they need to cut it back to just pick up or limit the menu if they cannot provide the service. I paid $36 with tip and ate half of it.

Your right i need to change the review and this is what i have to say not only did you not give anything for my daughters birthday. You added a tip and the waitress was very mean to us. And when i said i will not pay for a tip that was extremely high for 2 people only your waitress stole my daughters phone. And i quote what she said no tip no phone. Had to call the police to get her phone back that she threw in the trash and then proceeded to try and attack us while we were leaving. I've came to this place for over 10 years and im guessing that new people took over this place has gone to hell i really hope everyone reads this because you really don't care about people and Business

Awesome place. Best Hibachi I've been to. Chef was phenomenal and made us laugh. The food was terrific. I had Hibachi lobster with rice and noodles.

Been coming here for 10 years. Always provide the best sushi in town for me and my needs and expectations. In my experience its overall great except the wait service is just blah. Its why I only give this 4/5. I still tip even on poor wait service (not food service, not its taking a long time) just every since I started coming here 10 years ago its always been a lackluster wait service. I'm just there for the food anyways so 4/5.

I love the food, very pleasant atmosphere, don't have to wait long for service and very friendly. I wish that they deliver which would benefit the business by getting more customers who has to walk a good distance especially when the weather is too cold and it raining 🌧/ snowing 🌨 out.

Always a pleasure. Very little people come here at any given time. I hope they get more customers.

LOVE this place. It's my go to spot for mother - daughter lunch dates. The hibachi lunch is delicious. Tip:**I always make sure to go for lunch time and order off the hibachi lunch menu (before 3). Way cheaper than if you go for dinner. ***It's in a meh section of town but no one ever bothered or messed w us. I suggest the hibachi steak or chicken. Ive never had anything bad from this place. Ever.

This place got a 5 star rating because of where it's at. It's hard to find good food in hazelton. Not only are the prices cheap for hibachi grill but also entertaining and don't mind if just 2 people come in for the hibachi experience.

Will Never eat here again, Hostess was rude, got my order wrong, specifically asked for noodles no rice and I got rice and they wouldn’t change it. Said it was my fault cause they didn’t understand. This restaurant use to be good but they were sold and now not a good place at all.

Good food and service. Hibachi is always great. Definitely a place to come back to.

Darrin Wagner

22:09 20 Sep 21

They had the option for hibachi or regular ordering and they serve sushi sashimi, soup, salad, noodles. They also have sake, one of my favorite Asian drinks, aside from tea. You almost forget that your in Hazelton when dining here

Gab

Ordered a crazy dragon roll which was fantastic and bursting with flavor. The chicken hibachi was also very good but the clear mushroom soup was a bit too salty. The Cajun seafood boil with garlic butter and mild seasoning was way too spicy and it lacked flavor. Overall I had a great experience and would definitely recommend and I will personally return.

Called to check if they still offered the all you can eat sushi as its still listed on the website. Person answering the phone said they don't have it and have never offered it before when i mentioned that its on the website they hung up on me. Unprofessional way to handle a customer inquiry. Will not be coming to eat here any more

We had a nice time there. Food was good, service was fast. The live grill chef was pretty entertaining. Reasonably priced. The sushi/sashimi/nigiri was fresh.

Denis Calarco

15:59 23 Jun 21

Excellent food wether you dine-in or get takeout. Their hibachi "performance" is a little lackluster compared to what it used to be, but I'd still gladly sit for a meal prepared by their awesome chefs.

Joy Ge

19:36 19 Jun 21

The seafood boil was pretty good. The meat itself is bland but I dunked them in the Cajun sauce that pooled at the bottom of the bag which was delicious. The lobster was overcooked. Sashimi was fresh, and the shiso leaves were a nice touch. I just wish the slices were thinner. I'm not a big fan of the Korean BBQ stir fry or the mango shrimp, which came from the Asian grill menu.

This place is horrible ever since they changed owners. We were so excited to make reservations here to celebrate mother's day. We showed up at the time the reservation was set for and we still had to wait over 45 minutes because our table was not ready. Then we waited for over two hours for our food and when it came out it was cold and the orders were completely wrong. The staff didnt even refill our drinks the whole time there. When we asked to speak to the manager, the manager started screaming saying he didn't care if we ever came back. The service was horrible yet you get charged an automatic 15% for the service. Worst experience ever, i used to love coming here and after today i will have to say i will never come back again and will not recommend this place to any of my friends and family 💔 😔. What a way to celebrate Mother's day.

Adam Stanley

22:28 09 May 21

Still there. All the food for our table was cold. Waited over an hour to get out food . Manager said he doesn't care. Waited 2 hours for a drink. Manager again says he doesn't care. "We've been here for 14 years, it's mother's day." Our reservations for 4pm 14 people habichi. We were made to wait almost 45min for a table, not a hibachi table. The waitress saw us for drinks and food order. The cold food came from the hostess.The manager was rude, the server was non existent. The orders were cold, the Cajun boils were wrong. The managers words "I don't care"

The guy who made our food WAS AMAZING and he sang happy birthday to my daughter!! He was very neat! Professional he was great at his job, made us smile and laugh, he gave my daughter a piece of cake as well

The best Hibachi around. Even though it's take out only now because of the Covid it is worth a visit

This place is horrible ever since they changed owners. Rude staff. Wrong order. Was told order would be fixed for next time free of charge but when i called to order I was told they couldn't do it and was hung up on twice when I explained the situation. The man who answered the phone would not tell me his name and said the manager wasn't there.

Even with Covid making things difficult, they provide a wonderful take-out option and provide full meals that are just as good as eating there. I go there about once a week.

Heather Meier

If I could give this place more than 5 stars I would! Never any issues other than them not telling us to get out when we end up there later than closing time! It has happened more than once where we didn't notice how late it was and the employees did not even harass us and i wish they would have. 😂😂They are very generous and kind and patient. The only think I would change would be that I wish they were open later every day. 🙂

I loved the grill guys tricks. The sushi was really good. Full Bar gets an extra star.

George Doran III

00:32 07 Jan 20

Service was very poor. That being said there was an ambience that something was going wrong that night so I don't want to judge it on 1 visit. The food was okay. The sushi was very fresh but the rest of the food was underwhelming. The pork katsudon was very blah. Just meat on a doilie and a cup of rice on the side. I'd probably go here for sushi of I was in Hazleton. But not going out of my way to come back. The staff was very friendly but inattentive.

Good place, it was kind of slow, we had to wait a while. But once we got the sevice it was really good they serve a lot off food so be prepare to have some to take home. We had the hibachy it pretty fun. Definitely recommend this place

Brenda Lisitano

01:16 29 Sep 19

Food was not too bad but then I looked up halfway through dinner and the dust hanging from the lights was enough to not really want to go back. There were young people in the parking lot with a golf club (no golf courses in sight).

Food was good however waiter was rude. My kids and I finished eating and the waiter brought us the check and to go boxes. We were chatting and packing our boxes when the waiter came over and asked if the check was ready. I said no and he said well can you take care of it first as we are closed. How rude!!!!

Love this place! I have yet to be disappointed in anything I've ordered and the service is always well done. The sushi is always fresh, the hibachi is always entertaining and tasty, the pot stickers, tempura and shumai are always perfect! Highly recommend this place!

Simply Amazing food, thanks George Thomas for a fantastic lunch

Brandon Schoch

18:23 24 Apr 19

Staff is friendly, food is great and a great price especially during lunch time. I have eaten at the hibachi table twice but would rather eat at the booth because out of 8 people (5 of witch were in my party) I was the only one to order shrimp and they kept flinging my food (the shrimp) to other people, If it wasn't for that I would give 5 stars.

Kim Lepley

11:38 07 Apr 19

The food here is superb! It was my first time, and I will definitely make it a point to go back! The lunch special is definitely worth its money. I got the combination with rice, their rice is so sticky, like rice should be. Love, love, love it!

The all-you-can-eat sushi is such a great deal. Excellent food and wonderful staff. This is my new favorite sushi place.

Nicholas Ovens

Absolutely, hands down, the best hibachi grill I've ever been to. The staff was extremely friendly and put on an awesome show. I will definitely be making more trips to this establishment.

Justin Hall

13:25 20 Feb 19

Food is great! Service is good. Sitting at the hibachi is always fun. If you're having a party there's a separate room in the back where you can have your own hibachi chef. I always have a good time when I go here.

Jaime Scatton

01:44 27 Jan 19

Mirakuya is always a fun place to go eat. The hibachi seats are a guaranteed good time. The chef that cooks for you, and there are a few, is always fun, engaging and professional. The show put on by the chef makes for great entertainment while waiting for your meal to be cooked. The food is fresh, seasoned perfectly and colorful. A great place to go out with friends, on a date, and even out with the kids. Absolutely will go back.

Rahul Desai

01:44 04 Oct 18

Most disappointing food I have had in a while. To top this bad experience, the service or whatever they were doing in the name of service was even worse.Avoid if you can. The one star is for the live hibachi station which we saw in action. It definitely looked fun with the chef engaging will all sitting around the table.
