I had a fantastic experience with an entertaining host! Our table of nine was well taken care of, with timely service for our orders and appetizers. The chef cooked our hibachi meals right in front of us, showcasing his skills while keeping us engaged and laughing. The steak, salmon, shrimp, and vegetables were cooked entirely to our liking. Overall, it was a unique and enjoyable culinary experience.

The food and entertainment were great. If you have a small group, expect to be paired up with others to fill the seats. The sushi rolls were huge and very good also. We had one person with food allergy concerns and they were very thorough checking that the items ordered did not contain those ingredients. Friendly server and the chef was entertaining. A little on the expensive side but great for a special occasion.

Great food, energetic chef, excellent customer service! I really enjoy their peach hot sake. I've loved everything I've ordered, from Filet mignon & shrimp to the lollipop roll and the dynamite roll. I wish I would have asked for our chefs name. We've been lucky enough to have him on both occasions! His laugh is fabulous!

Hibachi is always a fun time, but Izumi takes it to the next level! From the moment you walk in, the staff makes you feel welcome, adding to the lively and entertaining atmosphere. The chefs put on an incredible show, and the food? Absolutely delicious—cooked to perfection right before your eyes. Whether it’s a special occasion or just a night out, Izumi delivers an unforgettable experience every time. Highly recommend!
