We got take out so perhaps the experience was not as great as if we would have eaten in. While waiting for our order, we were able to experience the Sushi Train. If you really know your Japanese food you'll probably walk out the door before you will want to sit down, but we're daring enough to not want to miss out on a good place if one exists. We ordered Yakisoba, fried rice, Sakura chicken, and teriyaki chicken. The Sakura chicken is worth passing up, as well as the Yakisoba was made with spaghetti noodles versus the traditional soba noodles which was a huge disappointment plus, they were very overcooked and mushy. To be honest, when I see spaghetti noodles being served in place of soba noodles, I get the feeling of a cheezy americanized version which also explains the low prices. On the other hand, the teriyaki chicken was good, and the rice was good. So on techinical dishes, they failed miserably, yet on the simple ones they faired as expected. Overall experience on the take-out experience was poor, but we will try the dine in style just to see how it compares to the genine article. We'll try the sushi when we dine-in although, I don't know that the train delivery system is the best way to showcase your sushi. It gets a poor rating in comparison of what we are used to.

This is a fun place to eat and the sushi is wonderful. Very fresh! One of my favorites! Get there early.

I love this place. I've never eaten by the sushi train but I love there sushi and steakhouse. The atmosphere is great and there green tea ice cream is awesome.
