Been to many Teppanyaki restaurants, and I would highly recommend this place over others. If there’s an option for 10 stars I would rate it.

Premium choice of restaurant for a teppanyaki show and meal with meat and seafood options available – a la carte or try a set course meal for something more special. The teppanyaki chefs are friendly and if you’re keen you can interact with them more or just sit back and watch their culinary displays as they prepare your food in front of you complete with fire tricks.
