I have dined at the Porter Ranch and Tampa Blvd. locations. You can choose to sit at the sushi bar or be seated at a Teppan table if you want the see the "food show." Unless you can fill up the Teppan table with your family or friends, you will be seated with other people. Sometimes it's fun, other times not. Overall I have to say the food is fresh and tastes good. Both places are on the noisy side and the prices are a little on the high side. Generally, the service is very good.
