House of hamada

The staff is quite new there and some migrated from the Hamadas in Tinley to the Orland location. I've been going here 12 years. This place looks very updated, expensive marble and a nice sushi bar in the inside. However, as a franchise, you would expect the food to be the same. it is not EXACTLY the same. The sauces are a bit different. The ginger is slightly different but good. However, the yum-yum sauce is thicker here and taste a little more like mayo than the other Hamadas in Tinley. The special mix of butter they use to cook is also a different blend. The chop-sticks are nicer still wood, but you can tell Hamadas in Tinley use cheaper stixs. The Orland better stixs. I spoke with management to share my experience and when people come to franchise or a second location, people do expect certain things to be the same. I saw one chef using a spatula with blinking green, red lights when they do their fancy cook tricks. It looked pretty cool. From my perspective, I know chefs can be pretty tough to change their recipes or blends. But, in this case, I am not sure if I'll go back to this particular location as I like the Tinley Park sauces, butter and ginger much better. For Sushi, I might go to the new location in Orland. You'll see what I mean if you are hardcore Hamada fan like me and my family! Enjoy!

great new spot that literally just opened last week! service was great and will definitely be back again

My family of 5 loved every minute of it. We all love the noodles and most hibachi only give them to the adults or you have to pay separately for kids. My three kids were so excited to have the noodles. Our chef was funny, engaging, and made it a marvelous experience.The waitress and service staff were attentive and helpful too. Try it out, you won't regret it!

Checked out the newest hibachi grill and it was a wonderful experience. The prices are a bit more than the other local spots but the service and flavor was well worth it.
