The restaurant is dirty, and the woman at the register is extremely rude. I'm a local and won't be returning. Instead, I recommend KOBE Express on 707 in Murrells Inlet. It's a far better option, and the owners are very friendly. The food is also significantly better. Take a look at their reviews in comparison to this place.

This restaurant is family-owned and operated, and we've enjoyed watching their kids grow up while we've been loyal customers. Most diners opt for takeout, and the food is consistently delicious at fair prices.

We often grab a quick meal at this restaurant when we are in town. We usually place an order over the phone and then pick it up. The food is consistently delicious and enjoyable.

Like many others have mentioned, this restaurant offers Hibachi-style food with the quality of a sit-down restaurant but at an affordable price. While I wouldn't necessarily recommend their sushi, the Hibachi dishes are definitely worth trying if you're staying in the Surfside area for the evening.

This restaurant serves the best Japanese chicken dish I have ever tasted. The chicken here is cooked perfectly and the flavors are amazing. I always make sure to eat here whenever I get the chance.
