  My boyfriend and I decided to check this place out on a Sunday afternoon. It was quiet, there was only one other party of two there.  The decor is definitely outdated and it seemed as though this has been around for awhile.  
  
  The waitress was friendly and welcoming.  We both ordered the steak and chicken hibachi with gyoza as an appetizer.  Our salads came first.  I chose the ginger sauce, while my bf chose the sesame one.  I liked his better, but I just wanted to try something different! Our gyozas came out next.  It was fresh and really hot! Once it cooled down, the flavor was great, and the sauce complimented it.
  
  Next, the chef came out with his cart.  He was very friendly and explained the different sauces that paired with the meats. Even though we ordered the chicken and steak, he added a couple pieces of shrimp, which we appreciated. The portion was very large and I really liked the sautéed vegetables!
  
  Overall, the food was great but it is a bit overpriced.  As someone stated in a previous review, you are paying for the show.  You can get a similar meal at a cheaper cost at a different Japanese restaurant.  It was a good early dinner date though for my boyfriend and I. Maybe with some renovations this place can get a little bit more business, because I can see it being a great spot for a date night.

  Friendly staff and delicious food! The prices are very, very affordable and you leave stuffed. I had the filet and lobster tonight. A must try!

  We ordered the shrimp and they were spoiled. We could smell the stench from the time they hit the grill. We informed the cook, but he acted as if he could not smell what we were smelling. He finished cooking and attempted to serve them to us. I declined, but my sisters both trusted his word. They both regretted that decision. He told the manager to take them off our bill. She came to our table, and instead of recognizing the issue, she proceeded to tell us how she's never served a bad shrimp in her 21 years working here. I personally would not recommend this place to anyone.

  I've lived in Lafayette my whole life (except for 6 years in the service) and had only been here once when I was a teenager. We were driving by to go somewhere else to eat and I joked about stopping at Mt. Fuji for dinner. So we tried it. The food was really good! I got the Steak Habachi and the spouse got the Fish Habachi. The only thing you need to be aware of is it is a Habachi restaurant. So you sit at a table with others. They aim to wait until a table is full and orders are taken before your chef comes out and cooks everyone's food. So if you come in hungry, expect this and order an appetizer. I'm deducting one star as the high chair they had was broken.
  
  Don't let the faded sign and outside appearance of the place deter you. It was clean and the staff was friendly. Recommended!!
  
  (Also I was very pleased to use the word 'Habachi' so many times in this review)

  Don't be in a hurry if you come here.  It's a unique experience with the chef cooking your food at your table and it's fresh and delicious!  The hostess is not the friendliest person either.  Prices were reasonable.
