Was nice, very good food. Its nice how they cook your food right in front of you. Flames and all.... we had a birthday dinner, and they even accommodated us with extra plates for the cake at the end. Very nice chefs and waitresses... I was not thinking but really should have taken pictures. I will be going back..... 😁

Dinner was amazing. I was excited to find this place but an employee stole my CC info and charged $1300. by the next morning. Manger seemed to care when I called. Just dont let your card out of your sight like I did.

Everything was phenomenal I definitely was impressed. I couldnt eat it all but I tried. Even the leftovers was delicious. I will definitely be going back. U do need money 🤑 but it is worth it. Must try.

The food was mediocre. The atmosphere was horrible. The music was so loud I could barely hear my wife, who was barely two feet away from me. I actually heard Snows Informer in Spanish, in the background. The Calamari was way too chewy. I would not recommend this place.

Nice dinner. Very warm inside as it was a hot day and the cooking at the table and all. But also, felt like there was no air.

Had a great time w/ Johnathan as our hibachi chef. Definitely recommend to ask for him for your next dinner at this location.

Very good experience at Shi Ra Soni 2! The food was good and the cooking performance was on point. Will be back since it was easy to get a table the day of.

Please save your money and never ever come here. The most childish and unprofessional staff by far. Daniel was beyond rude and way beyond unprofessional to my family for my 5 year old nephews birthday. Imagine that. A child’s birthday. Wasabi in Elk Grove has wonderful service and great food if you are looking for good hibachi. Never ever come here please. Trust all the recent bad reviews.

Food was decent. Waitress was horrible. She kept disappearing. We had been done for 15 minutes with our sushi and appetizers before we flagged down another waitress to take our entree order and ask for drink refills. Second waitress was trying. First one checked on us once, we we had dirty dishes setting right on the edge of the table and she just left them there even after she brought more tea at my request. Finished with meal and waitress no where around. We finally had to ask for her and ask for the bill, then she never came back with it. Had to ask again for it. The whole time we were in the dinning area 4 couples came, ate and left, different waitress. There was no was else ever in the dinning area so they werent busy. Never going back.

My 1st impression was of a place falling apart. The fish tank was full of slimy water, no fish...their water feature was dry. Ordered the special albacore in ponzu sauce and it tasted off...they brought me a second that tasted good. The table show was what you would expect on a week night. Needs serious rejuvenation or I predict a sad future.

Review №12

2023-02-23 09:30:26

Dont bother, the clams rubbery, chicken was cut so small it was dry and tasteless a long with the shrimp for $40.00 one plate of tasteless joke. And the salad taste like fish, how do you screw up salad?? Save your money

What a great little surprise! Food was delicious, fresh. I ordered a steak with shrimp. Tender. Service was your typical chef doing his showman cooking style. Nothing to brag about as the chef really had no personality. But the 5-star was for the food and the company I came with. Sorry no pictures. Its on my phone and this review was written on my laptop.

2022-07-10 16:48:29

Overpriced. Went there with four people for dinner. No alcohol and bill was $175. They automatically charge you a service fee of 18 percent onto your bill. Never told us when we came in. Last time I will every come to this place. Avoid unless you want to be overchaged and be forced to pay the tip they choose.

They cook the food right in front of you, our chef put on a great show, throwing food into peoples mouths and making flames and flipping his tools, with 8 people the bill was 360 with tip included, but otherwise this place is amazing and Id go there again if I had the money

First time here and walked out…Called to see how long the wait was for regular dinner. Was told to walk in or make a reservation, so I made a reservation for 7:00 pm for 4. Get there and no one has a clue about my reservation. Was told that I probably called the Stockton location. They went through their phone to try and prove me wrong so I had to show/prove that I indeed called them, which was ridiculous. They were rude, not accommodating at all, even when I said (after multiple times) that we would like to wait. At the end we were told that we cannot order anything other than sushi, and no dinner for 4 at the tables…really?!? ✌🏼

Waaaayyyyyy overpriced! Do yourself a favor and stay far away! Small portions, big prices. Made a reservation for 7:30, was seated at 8:40??Never again.

Review №21

2019-01-13 01:15:22

I dont know who said the portions are too small for the price? My best friend and I go here all the time and we have never ordered our own plate. We order one plate, split it and take home leftovers. The food is excellent in the service is great.

One of (if not the) best sushi spot in Lodi! Great service and quality food!Edit: went there again and used the restroom, only to find a brand new updated restroom that looks like they spent a lot to make it look nice, but the bathrooms were absolutely filthy. It looks like they havent cleaned it since it was updated. The sinks had grime and stains caked on the basin as if they mopped the floor using the sinks to rinse the mop water and didnt bother cleaning it after. I was so grossed out, it was really disgusting. I wonder what the kitchen looks like. I will never return. This just changed my 5 star to a 3 star, only because the food was good, but their cleanliness is outright appalling.

The chef was very personable as well as an amazing chef. The food was delicious...the best way to eat vegetables! The steak was quite tender. Would highly recommend!!

Usually this place does not disappoint. Unfortunately this time we were. My father drive an hour to have dinner with us here which is my favorite place to eat. We wanted appetizers but were told by the waitress not to order them unless we wanted them with our dinner because they were understaffed. If I ran a business I wouldnt convince my customers not to buy something. Now we are looking for a new place. So sad.

Review №25

2022-07-18 18:28:52

Amazing food with a show! I have been to many of the Shi Ra Soni locations and this is by far the best! Don’t forget to bring cash to tip your chef!

2019-03-20 01:43:05

This place is usually good but not this time brought the family and half of us ordered the shrimp and it was horrible it tasted really really fishy and just tasted frost bit. The manager was called to the table and she said that it was normal for the shrimp to taste that way. Never coming back to this place again

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! Called in to make a reservation for 8 for my birthday dinner and the lady told me NO PROBLEM, see you at 6:30pm... we get there and the same lady tells me “yikes, I didn’t expect for it to be busy so we could not hold your reservation” NEVER AGAIN WILL WE EAT HERE! This is what happens when restaurants don’t appreciate their customers

Review №31

2019-07-17 11:58:12

So havent found a hibachi as good as Lil Tokyo in Natchez, BUT this one is pretty close. Their soup was good, salad dressing was ok. Their fried rice was lacking something... Meat (shrimp, chicken, steak) was good, veges could have been grilled longer and their yum-yum sauce was yuck.

Review №32

2022-01-31 00:24:20

I went here on January 7,2022. Horrible experience. Food was okay but sushi was not. Way too expensive for the quality of food plus I got food poisoning! Birthday was definitely ruined.

Me and my family yave veen eating at Shi ra Soni for 19 years,but we have become locked on the Lodi location. The cooks are really friendly and we usually request the Chef Dragon due to his skills with making my lobster so well it melts in my mouth. I highly recommend this spot gor the food the staff and the show. Give em a try,i promise you will enjoy.
