The specialty of this restaurant is obviously sushi. The rest is just a show; that probably pays the bills. I have had the pleasure of eating at this establishment many times and while I do agree that the wait staff needs some training, it doesn't take away the sole of the restaurant which is the sushi bar. At which you are typically served by the proprietor himself. The sushi is excellent (portions seem too large; but I am obviously accustomed to the rampant 'Chinese' knock off sushi that is everywhere in GA.) Not to say that excellent sushi can't be had by Chinese chefs, but it seems the Asian community believes we will all pay out the nose for sliced up raw fish if the guy preparing it looks Asian (and this is too true!).
In my experience (at the sushi bar) the food is extremely well prepared, with obvious attention to detail. Though a little on the pricey side 'itsumo takai da', I consider it a treat. As for the theatrical grill section, my family has yet to be disappointed with a meal here; though I always wish I were sitting at the sushi bar.
If you want really good sushi (comparative locally; from my experience of course, never been to Japan myself!). You can't go wrong, if you are looking for a family restaurant with a chef performing cheap tricks, there are a thousand in the area and they might be cheaper for the exact same food. Demo, it's worth the trip even if you are sampling the sushi..... Think about it..
Pros: Excellent sushi, incredible portions
Cons: Regular dining area relatively typically. Then again the whole style was created for US
