Ar Hibachi - Cabot

I have gone here for years but I think I’m done. The quality of the food is not what it used to be. There were flies near the food and it all did not look very fresh. There is so much salt in everything now that’s all you really taste. The last straw was tonight when we all ordered waters to drink but the waiter brought 3 Sprites for my kids instead. My wife and I recieved waters correctly but we didn’t realize the kids had sprites until the meal was almost over. When I went to pay after the meal and explained we didn’t order the drinks, the lady immediately got an attitude. After she went to consult with one of the waiters who didn’t even take our drink order, she returned and claimed we did order Sprites. After I told her again that we did not, she got more upset and started sighing, slamming things down and then jerked my card out of my hand. She didn’t charge me for the drinks though begrudgingly. I was pretty insulted as I’m a former police officer and would never try anything shady but they must have a lot of customers try to scam them. I even left a tip.

Amazing wonton and egg drop soup. However, while waiting for a to go order, I witnessed this young man going straight from taking cash at the register to handling this food. I did make a comment to him about it.

When they first opened they were excellent. I hate to say it but quality has seemed to go down. If you go in on none peak times food is scare and lukewarm. They put new food on top so if you are not lucky to get it you get the food that has been in pan for a long time limp and barely warm. Sushi is good if fresh but often they over make and set out rolls that are dried and sticky. All in all you can go in and get an excellent meal or a barely acceptable one depending on time of day.

We got the bill before we were even half way through the first plate. Refills for drinks were very lacking to say the least. Food selection was decent at best. We were charged the extra amount they charge for Saturdays when they have crab legs on the menu, never seen a single crab leg come out while we were there. Really not impressed at all.

Most of the personal have little personality. They were busy but let a lot of the food get low. Some of it is overcooked and most of it is too greasy. However, a lot of the food is tasty regardless of the grease. It's not my favorite Chinese restaurant but we are very limited in Cabot. They certainly could be more friendly.
