"Did the all you can eat option. The AYCE dinner menu includes appetizers and drinks that the lunch menu doesn't. Our bill without tip was $76 and it was worth every penny. $110 for a date night with unlimited eats and drinks is hard to find these days. We will be back!"

"Believe it! Grand Hot Pot Lounge is the place to go if you're looking for a meal that’s as epic as a battle between shinobi! The moment I stepped in, the atmosphere was just as warm and inviting as the Hidden Leaf Village. The staff? They’re like a team of well-trained ninjas, always ready to assist with a smile. The broths are nothing short of legendary, each one more flavorful than the last—it's like tasting the hidden jutsu of culinary perfection! The ingredients are top-quality, from the freshest veggies to the most tender meats and seafood. You can tell they put their heart and soul into everything they serve, just like a true shinobi! And don’t even get me started on the dipping sauces—they’re like your secret weapons, giving you the power to customize each bite to your exact liking. Whether you're a seasoned hotpot warrior or just starting your ninja training, Grand Hot Pot Lounge is the place to fuel up before your next mission. Dattebayo! Can't wait to come back for another round!"

"Walked in after dinner hour and were warmly greeted by sushi chef and hostess/server. Room looked cold, but modern and clean. Stacks of Sapporo cases in one corner of the room and a prominent video image of Ed Sheeran up on a karaoke screen, although it wasn't being used. We soon noticed that the room looks like it could instantly convert to a dance venue - new flooring, spotlights in the corners, etc. After perusing an extensive sushi menu (mixed with a few Chinese items), we noticed a menu box detailing a $10 All You Can Drink deal for sake, American wine, the aforementioned Sapporo and some fruit punch cocktails - obviously a party spot on some nights. We were very hungry for sushi, so ordered a lot and we're not disappointed. Miso soup was not included with the meal, but tasty. California roll was real snow crab and well made. Iris roll with mango was delicate, double tuna was a little spicy, and Pink Lady was well blended. All good. We were cold, so ordered soup dumplings, even though the waitress admitted they were frozen. Very similar in size and quality to Trader Joe's version. Not bad, but still...what did we really expect, it's a Sushi house. All in all, we were very satisfied. Full of good sushi and drink. Would definitely return."

"Late night spots are some of my favorite places since we can never find anything that is open. When we first walked in there was no one inside, but since the reviews are pretty decent, we went too worried. We sat down and were immediately greeted by the staff. I ended up ordering the chirashi bowl. The entree comes with salad and miso soup. The miso soup wasn't bad, the salad dressing was interesting, but pretty tasty nonetheless. My fish for the chirashi bowl was really fresh tasting and a great variety. I also tried their agedashi tofu which was pretty good, but the sauce was just soy sauce. Service is pretty good, so if we're craving Japanese later at night will probably hit up the spot again. Parking is pretty easy as not a lot of places in the area are open."

"For an all you can eat hot pot and drinks, it’s well worth it but don’t come expecting the best of the best of everything. The broths were delicious. They have every sauce and condiment you could want to use for dipping. Service was super extra speedy fast like we blinked and the food was here. For the dinner menu, they offer crab, wine and sake! Their portions are pretty large also for ordering meat slices and vegetables. I’ve never seen more items to choose from on an all you can eat menu than this spot - double sided! Totally a fun lighthearted environment. It’s not quiet here. Great value for money for sure! They even offer a pretty large variety of cooked food to choose from too like spring rolls, potstickers, crab Rangoon, orange chicken."
