You have to be so negative, I wish him and his family all the best. Be nice, you never know what’s ahead.
They lost their hard liquor license then they got Unsatisfiactory health inspection in September 2017 and again in October 2018. Good riddance!
The customer service there was horrible!!! The sushi was bomb but when I think about the service there, I’d rather not.
Ah-ha!!! Another Merced County Victim of HIGH PRICE to LOW INCOME ratio. This place was OVERRATED any way. Service WAS horrible. Overpriced Cuisine. Teppenyakki…. overrated! #nothing lasts in MERCED
Only if people knows how he treats his employees. He harasses them, trying to recite labor laws when he is clearly wrong. He even lets minor serve alcohol. And no he does not spend 7 days a week 15 to 16 hour there. He spends more time away in Vegas on poker tournaments. He pays his employees when he feels like it, he makes up excuses on why they will not be paid on the exact same day bi-weekly. He knew about this move last month, only told the employees he wanted to take. Which is the chefs and told them to hush. It’s a good thing he’s closing down because he hasn’t been caught for all the wrongs he doing as a business owner. Karma!!! Fresno County is bigger so better do it right cuz the next person will speak up.
If ya want burnt fried rice then please rush in.
