Aoki Teppanyaki and Izakaya

Food was decent enough for price paid. Flavors weren't overpowering and might even say bland. My issue was service. Don't know if they were too busy and/or understaffed. We didn't get sauces till well into eating our food and almost being finished. We had to ask for napkins which didn't come till after we had finished. Our table was touched probably 3 times during 2 hours. We might have had a few more drinks, but didn't get enough table visits to order. We passed on desserts thinking it would probably take too long to arrive. It was a convenient choice on short notice. Bill was $140 for 4. We had 1 drink each and a main course. We shared a serving of vegetable tempura.

Not so good:
Not a lot of chicken options, mainly a red meat restaurant.
Pricey.
Using coupons is complicated.
Salad bar is very limited.
Silverware was not very clean.

Pros:
They do have a baby changing table in the ladies room.
Kids prices are good.
Desserts are very tasty.
They have a brunch special pricing on Sunday's.

I’ve been here many times and the food is definitely amazing. However, sometimes the workers are unhelpful and/or give attitude. Along with that, some of the chefs take extremely long to make the food. I understand there’s a lot of people being served, but I’m talking 2-3 hours of cooking. The time this happened, I had made a reservation for 8 and didn’t leave the restaurant until 12, which was way past closing time.

I was recently at your restaurant while driving by. I was attending by a young lady named Cristina. She was very helpful by explaining the menu. In addition she was very patient and compassionate with with while adding a welcoming attitude to us. She explained the food and the process very well. I was very fortunate to have had her as our server.

Great food and presentation. I took the family for Mother's day and it was reasonably busy but we still received good service from the attentive staff. We sat outside to avoid the line and were immediately seated and attended. Getting the food didn't take long considering the place was almost completely packed from the holiday effect. Being seated inside ensures an up close performance by the chef as he cooks your food directly in front of you. Highly recommended.
