Great place. Awesome food. Cool ambiance. I go there once a year while visiting for the holidays. Always get the pineapple fried rice or sushi. I also order a custom special "The Dragon Chaser". 3 rolls, Dragon roll, Angry Dragon and Black Dragon. Definitely worth the visit.

Always enjoy our meal here. Great Service and fresh food. I personally like the spicy handrolls which I typically order. This was a small takeout order tonight to have a little fun. Japanese "Pop" sodas are another treat. Live the decor and food consistency. Definitely worth a trip to enjoy a cocktail and food.

Amazing experience here for lunch with a coworker! The hostess was incredibly kind and we were served immediately. I am still dreaming about this roll a week later… the Snow White roll. Amazing. Also, the fried rice was delicious too! Reasonable pricing. Will be back!

I've come to Izumi many, many times for dinner -- delightful! but this time, my workmate and I stopped here to check out their Happy Hour and I'm so glad we did. Food was very good and reasonable...and there were things not on their Happy Hour menu that we ordered from their regular appetizer list that were extremely tasty and still not overpriced. You are limited to the bar area (no tables) but we went at 4:30 on a Saturday and there were bar seats available. Warning...they won't let you eat here on Happy Hour prices and take your leftovers home!!! So only order off that menu what you can eat while you're here. Even so, I'm sure we will go back here again and again.

We went for hibachi lunch. Ethan, our chef, was amazing. Although there were only the 2 of us, he didn't hold back on the entertainment. He accommodated me company with a low salt option and showed us a wonderful time. Our waitress was pleasant. Drinks are also good..

I have been to this restaurant more time than I could count. The past year or so of experiences I would say the food quality was ok and the service always made me feel rushed. Last night we went there for my daughters birthday and had the best experience for as long as I could remember. The service at the table was excellent. The waitress was attentive and we didn’t have to search for her for drink refills. I did feel a tad rushed when asking for food order as soon as drink order but it was ok since the kids had a long day and wanted to eat. The highlight of our night was the chef. He was outgoing, kept everyone engaged and made everyone laugh. The food was the best we have had in the longest. The food was cooked perfectly, the meat was cut to the perfect sizes and the flavor was incredible. When we left, my wife and I both said that we had the best time and food we have ever had. My only complaint is that they no longer give you soup and salad, you have to pick between one or the other. It was nice to get both with your meal, especially for how much the food costs. Enjoy.

We took my niece here for her birthday. It was her choice. She loves hibachi loves it I think we got it for the last 24 years of her 24 years on this world. So we took a hike to this place which is not close to her house but it was well worth it. The selections were so much better the chef was so much better he didn't kill everything like they doing some of the places I didn't feel rushed out of there like you do in some other some places. They had red snapper as one of the choices I've never seen that. And I had it and I was worried because a lot of times they overcook it like crazy. But he cooked it perfectly. I will come back just to have this. The only one thing that I thought was a little misplaced is that you have to choose between soup or salad it's usually both it's always been both. They decided to change it monetarily I suspect. That's really the only thing that I thought was a little off. Other than that the chef was so much fun and he did the most wonderful balloon gifts for my niece and her friend and another woman at the table. I would go here again

Celebrated mom's birthday with first time experience. Our chef was great very attentive and made sure to verify food allergies. Experience was interactive because you get to play with your food.
