"On Wednesday 12/06 I went to Banzai Sushi, I have never received such bad service in my life… Every time I remember my experience, I get angry, the waitress is rude and has a horrible attitude! It's a shame because the food there is wonderful, but the service is so SO BAD that I lost my appetite. When I got there, there was some water spilled on the table, she took my stepfather's DIRTY NAPKIN to clean it and just left it there. When I asked for things she responded with an ignorant, rude tone. My partner doesn't eat any type of animal protein other than shrimp. So we asked if we could replace the salmon with shrimp in a poke, she checked in the kitchen and said everything was fine. When she came back, I placed my order and she was doing something at the other table, but said to continue because she was listening….my partner also talking about swapping salmon for shrimp at the end and the waitress replies “so it's not like that at all what you want, is something different” and simply left leaving us talking to the wall. When our order arrived, my order came out wrong. I called her and she simply replied “BUT ALSO, WITH HER MAKING ALL THIS MESS WITH SALMON AND SHRIMP…”, sorry, but for me that was the end of the bite. It's okay to get the order wrong, I know it happens, but blaming the customer? Every time she passed by our table I saw her making faces and looking at the kitchen. I thought it was a huge lack of respect, we are paying customers. On top of that, it also includes a 15% tip. Normally, if I receive good service, I will give 20%, after all, I work in customer service and value professionals in my field. And if the service was just bad, I wouldn't bother coming here to report it... But it was horrible"

"Made reservation for my sister's birthday, but the restaurant has a policy that all parties need to be present to seat for Hibachi. This was difficult for a party of 6 and a baby coming from different states. Was not allowed to seat other than the dining area and would not be able to move to hibachi later. We wanted to order appetizers and had no choice, but to take a table. We were seated with menu stacked in the middle of the table. This was disappointing since it wasn't busy and there were plenty of space at the hibachi. There should be a note on Open Table to inform customers regarding this policy. They also auto charge 20% in gratuity for parties of 6 or more. This was $53 and service was only ok. I wanted a drink, but the server never asked. We had to wrap our own leftovers. This is not to mention when the table filled up, we would help stack plates and hand to the server. The food was good. We ordered 9 appetizers including their signature rock shrimp. The Kobe beef Carpaccio was $20 for 4 thin sheets. Ordered Seabass and the basil prawns with tenderloin. The Seabass was excellent, but the prawns were hard and small sitting in edible bowl next to pieces of the tenderloin. The 7 sushi rolls were also good. These dinner plates should have included miso soup that showed up on the receipt, but we didn't receive. We were also charge for white rice that also came with the dish. The server was busy and refunded us five dollars in cash, which doesn't cover taxes and the 20% that was charged in addition. I personally would've given 15% to 18% for gratuity for the type of service I received. Manager watched and really didn't stop by and ask how things were. We should have had a better experience celebrating a birthday, and for $342 it wasn't great."
