While arriving at PCB for the week, we stopped by for a late lunch early dinner. We sat at the hibachi table where Dan the chef gave us an experience of a lifetime. He truly loves his job and the people he entertains. The food was fresh and phenomenal.
This was such a wonderful experience! I’m a local and it’s surprisingly hard to find good sushi. But the food here is incredible and the staff is so friendly. 10/10 recommend.
My daughter and I went to Osaka for lunch. At first, all was well—our waiter was friendly, and we ordered water, edamame, and the 2-sushi-roll special for each of us. We both love sushi, and the rolls we did eat were actually pretty tasty. Unfortunately, mid-bite my daughter found a hair in one of her rolls. It was blonde like ours, but perfectly straight—our hair is curly. At first, we thought maybe it was ours and tried to pull it off the sushi, but it was tucked under some of the rice like it had been rolled right in. I quietly mentioned it to our waiter, hoping to keep it private, but instead it became a full production—suddenly 3–4 staff members were at our table, comparing hair like we were in CSI: Sushi Edition. Yes, they all had black hair, but could none of them have a significant other with a different hair type? Someone who hugged them goodbye in the morning and—oops—left a souvenir? Stranger things have happened. I tried to keep it low-key, so we just set her sushi aside and she shared mine. When the bill came, it was still the full amount. We paid in full and even left a 20% tip, but I walked out feeling like we’d just been put on trial for “attempted dine and dash by hair plant.” It’s a shame, because the sushi we did eat was good. But after that scene, we won’t be back—my appetite for drama is even smaller than my appetite for hair in my food.
Let me tell you something about our evening! We called ahead and asked about reservations and none was needed for the time we chose … after we got there was a party of 30 / 45 and another one I don’t remember size but they got us in as they said right in time ! Fax was our server not once did our drinks go empty and was very pleasant / joking throughout. Mind you we go to a lot of hibachi restaurants, back home in Missouri. We can follow up with the food portion but before we can get to food we have to announce DAN the Chief ! He is a MUST request as this is one our best nights out in a long time for hibachi and absolutely made our night !!! Now let’s talk food / quality. The food itself was exceptional. The steak and shrimp combo I ordered was cooked to perfection, with the steak tender and flavorful and the shrimp succulent and fresh. The fried rice, seasoned vegetables, and signature sauces complemented the proteins beautifully. I particularly loved the ginger dressing on the salad and the rich, savory miso soup that started the meal. The atmosphere was lively and inviting, making it perfect for group dinners, celebrations, or even a casual date night. The service was attentive and efficient, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout the meal.
Sat with another group just starting hibachi. Great entertainment and service was quick. Great evening. Came home with extra food.
