This was my second time dining at Mito's. Both visits were enjoyable. Pretty nice atmosphere, kinda cozy with adequate seating, and the chefs put on a great fire show, so be ready! The food was comparable to other hibachi restaurants, so it was good and a nice serving size. The service was excellent (forgiving the communication hurdles), and there was plenty of parking. I'll be coming back.
