I was told my wait time is 1 hour. A little late but they tried, so thats cool. The problem was the bartender messed up my drink - strike one. The clear soup is "meh," and thats being nice. Salad dressing sucked. I ordered a 7 with 7 and the server had no idea what seagram 7 is even after explaining to her. She brings me a sierra mist. I had to explain to her 7 with 7 is seagram 7 whiskey with 7 up but sierra mist is fine too. My food isnt even here yet and my experience here sucks. I work in a hibachi place too and people always compare us to Benihanas. I came all the way to NYC to make sure I won't be disappointed... however... disappointed is an understatement.... Look for a hibachi place in Romeoville, Illinois if you want a real hibachi experience...
