The teppanyaki and sushi establishment has a bonafide sushi bar, though small, offering the usual raw fish assortment for sashimi or sushi: salmon, eel, sweet shrimp, fatty tuna, squid, crab, snapper, tuna and more.
Rolls come in the California, Philadelphia, avocado, cucumber, spicy tuna, spider and crunch variety. Toasted sesame seeds dot the outside lending a nutty taste. Rolls are eight piece and medium in width.
Teppanyaki is the featured entrée - chicken, shrimp, scallop, salmon, tuna steak (cooked to order) - available solo or in combinations. White onion, mushroom and zucchini make up the vegetable medley cooked alongside choice of meat. A recent dinner visit yielded al dente veggies, about four ounces of steak - a perfect medium rare cut into small bite-size squares - and three scallops with a seared exterior and still soft interior with a mountain of white rice as accompaniment.
Service was speedy and food arrived quickly.
Plus: Comfortable atmosphere, casual dining, plenty of seating, friendly staff.
Minus: Inconvenient parking.

The food here is EXCELLENT. I usually go for the lunch special which is amazingly affordable. You get a big serving of stir fried vegetables (and they are cooked perfectly really crisp and flavorful) and usually chicken with two kinds of sauce one is kind of tangy and savory, the other is like a sweet and sour but they are both delicious and house made. Everything is fresh! My husband gets the chicken and I get prawns. They hand roll sushi too. It is not a fancy place and the prices are great! Service is really friendly and down to earth. We go here every time we're in Tacoma!
