    Waitress billed us for the wrong group combo order, when we pointed it out the owner (Indian lady) came over and lied tried say the camera captured that i ordered it and i proceeded to tell her that when the food got delivered i asked the gentleman to confirm it was the correct order as this was our first time eating there and he confirmed. I told the owner to look at the footage where her employee confirms the order and the waitress had notated it incorrectly and she said she would have to call corporate to request the footage and wasn’t able to do it on the spot so then i called her out for lying when she said “in the footage video she saw i ordered what they stated i was ordering” zero customer service, she gave us a discount and refused to bill us for what was served FRAUD!! Cheap establishment, never returning!

    Great experience with our families. Boise level is low which was awesome. We can actually converse. Meat was very good quality. So delish! I would go back again.

    The food and service was excellent! The last time we went here was 10 years ago. We were pleasantly reminded why we used to come here a lot. The food was delicious!

    Have been here multiple times but this was the first Valentines where I decided this might be a fun adventure for my wife and I. We decided to go for one of the most expensive Valentine options for 2. It had quite a few great dishes but did we show up too late? The rice dish has nearly no meat, we were seated in this shared seating corner next to 4 other parties having to maneuver through everyone to get up or go to the bathroom. The grill was never turned on, and by the time it warmed up my meat had been sitting out for a while. The portions of food were small, and it being a set menu, made the AYCE options more favorable, when it came to all of the dishes coming out it seemed like we missed a few plates, but no one came to check in on us so, it made it difficult we didn’t even get the cheese fondue for the veggies that was on our menu, around dessert we were given the wrong tab, and the as if dessert wasn’t included given a plate of cold chocolate, and a couple of marshmallows. When asked how our meal was we said “it was alright” and got back a snarky “alright? Well that’s your opinion as long as it’s not my meats” I’ll be honest Valentine’s Day dinner was a let down, not sure if they ran out of food, but the service was lacking as well. Not sure if I’ll be back.

    Food was delicious and service was friendly. The price was good for the amount that served 2 people well. I like both the HB location and the Tustin.
