We used to enjoy coming here. The wait staff is friendly but unengaged. Food arrives too fast, or too slowly. The kitchen needs help organizing food delivery. We had chipped and cracked tea cups and dishes. The food is quite good, but given the prices the service needs improvement.

We were out for a Saturday night meal in the dining room. The salad, which was watery, was delivered to the table along with the soup almost right away. Then came the sushi appetizer, with the drinks after that. The hot dinner plates were delivered to the table before we had a chance to eat anything else. It was one... More

My family and I went here for my 50th birthday. I had never been here before but we all wanted to try it. We sat at hibachi. It's very loud in here so if you want a quieter setting, this is definitely not the place for you. The chef we had was decent, so no complaints there. Food was ok.... More

Was not disappointed. Went there after going to their Sushi Bar for quite some time before going to the hibachi. They carry over their excellent food and service flawlessly.

This was the perfect place for three families with their college sons to share a fun evening. We all laughed, enjoyed the theatrics and were satisfied with the food and drink.

We have figured out the Friday rush ends at 7, so we arrived at 6:50 and had a 5 minute wait for a table. When we left at eat there was plenty of seating. The Tum-yum soup was excellent, although my favorite is still the seafood miso soup. I had the tuna martini which came in an interesting glass and... More

We decided to eat at Mitsuba over Sumo based on the reviews and comments about the restaurant. We decided to eat sushi and sat in the back of the restaurant at the sushi bar. The wait staff was attentive but distracted. Our meal arrived at different times, which was very frustrating. For example. Miso soup should have arrived first, instead... More

The food is good, but even better is the fun. Everyone sits around the grill and the waiters entertain you while making your food. It's a fun place for older kids and a great place to take visitors. I've taken visitors from all over the world and they have all laughed their way through the meal. Great place for a... More

I've been in Utica area for work the past week. I hit up the standard place like outback and Applebee's, which were so so. Found this place and it is a gem. It's small and friendly. Walked in and I was the only one at the sushi bar, there were a few couples at the surrounding tables. Waiting staff was... More

I've only actually eaten here once. It is always crowded, they do a poor job of honoring reservations ( meaning you still wait 30 - 45 minutes for your table). The food is fine, if you like the hibatchi style with all the antics, they have that. Not my cup of tea...
