Tokyo Kitchen. This place has got to be one of the most entertaining, family oriented, places. It’s so beautiful. When you walk in, the air has a nice breeze to it, has calm music, and they even have a little bar for the adults. When you order your food it’s not like regular places where you have to wait for them to finish cooking, they actually cook your food right in front of you!
It’s actually entertaining because they throw a few tricks here and there. The one on Mountain though is really the one to go to best restaurant I’ve been to yet. If you order the rice, the person cooking for you will shape it into a heart and tell you a corny pick-up line like, “your eyes make my heart skip a beat,” and then he will make it look like the heart is pumping.
Also, when there are left over onions they will make it into a volcano and pour some type of sauce in it. When this sauce mixes with the grill, fire blows out of it as if the volcano was erupting. Although there’s also that trick that every cook tries to do when you throw the food in the air from your pan and expecting it to fall back in. I’m not saying this happens all the time but at times their tricks fail.
Since this place is so amazing, it tends to get really crowded. When this occurs if you have extra seats in your section, you unfortunately have to share your space with another family or group of people. As a result of having so many people in the restaurant it tends to get very hot because all the cooks are cooking on their boiling hot grills that all he humidity circles the place even with the ceiling fans on.
With all this commotion and pressure, the cooks get sort of nervous because other sections are watching them to and this is very rare but the food burns and they have to cook it again. Even though there’s a few cons to this place there food is phenomenal!
There steak is cooked exactly how you want it and the shrimp is just simply delicious. I would definitely recommend this place to anybody who hasn’t been here before, it’s worth checking out. I guarantee it’ll be a place you bring your relatives and friends back to.

Great review--I've only been here once, and they definitely didn't give me any cheesy pickup lines.
