"Food is great I think they will do great if they open a location in Janesville/beloit area"

"The food was phenomenal. I had their teriyaki chicken and it was sooo good. Service was amazing, I got my food no more than 5 minutes after I ordered, staff was nice. Only giving the atmosphere 3 stars because it’s in the mall but other than that this place is wonderful. I highly recommend it to anyone in the mood for high quality food."

"Best place to eat at the mall. I don't understand why they have a menu. They should just ask how many orders Teriyaki Chicken you want. All kidding aside, their Teriyaki Chicken is great. My wife and I probably go to the mall more often for this than the mall itself. It can be a little crowded because its so popular but they are usually moving at a pretty fast pace. P.S. If you are pretty hungry, ask for "double meat" or "extra meat" and you will get twice as much for a couple bucks extra."

"Their teriyaki sauce is absolutely amazing, the cabbage is always tender, and the meat is cooked fresh in front of you. Fantastic value. It’s the best restaurant in the mall by far, and it’s worth the trip into the mall just to eat."
