    Service was good and food tasted good. Our issues, whoever prepped the cart didn’t measure correctly, so everything was short. Not enough veggies, wrong count on shrimp, not rice for everyone to have a bowl; only thing correctly prepped was the entree. Also, the wagyu was not true wague beef; it was good, but not worth the price. This was not our typical experience here, so chalking it up to an off night, but there shouldn’t be an off night when you change such high prices.
