Anyone else love restaurants that use a Hibachi grill??

My girlfriend and I go to "Sake Japanese Steakhouse" and love it.

The place we go to charges 18 bucks, but you get soup, a main course (steak for me) and about 1lb of rice, which is amazing. You also get vegetables and salad.

I usually go with the sampler of steak, shrimp, sticky rice, soup of the day and vegetables. Old dude just piles it up like a mountain then I cover it with a little yum yum sauce and down it goes. Sometimes they play around and throw things in the air to the people around the table and you gotta catch it. This last time I was like 4/4 on shrimp and dude was flinging them to the ceiling but I think it made him mad that I caught them all. Between the 2 of us it's usually around 90 bucks but thats with tip and some sake.

I enjoy it but I am usually in the minority of the people around the table. I can't remember the name of it but it comes in a blue bottle and is delicious. We usually hit the Genji on Brice Rd.

Toyko Steakhouse in Findlay is amazing. If you want a great meal I'd go there. They have dinner specials for 2 for around 30 bucks sometimes I think never too pricey. I think for 2 the most I ever spent there was around 60 bucks and that was with a $10 tip.

We have the "Japanese Steakhouse" in Sandusky.. Only been to it once, but it was pretty damn cool. Hibachi tables are the shit.
