Banzai is the place to go if you want delicious Beef Sesame Rice Bowls and Bubble Tea! My family went there last night for take-out (about 30 minutes before they closed), and we got the beef sesame rice bowls, strawberry with added banana bubble tea, and some Mochi ice cream for dessert. The place was busy (even at the end of the night) but in total we waited maybe 15 minutes for our order and it was hot and fresh even by the time we got home! We enjoyed every last bite!
The staff were super friendly and each of them wore a mask. They also had dine-in but like many restaurants they only have a certain amount of seating available which is fine (as most people take it to go anyways). They also do Skip the Dishes which was booming when we got there, and I think Door Dash we well!
Thank you for staying open!
The best restaurant ever. Friendly staff and under priced food for the quality. If only I can eat this food everyday!
Used to be better. In the few months prior to the COVID crisis I noticed a definite lowering in the quality of their beef. I had a takeout lunch today, same problem with the beef as well as the garnishing vegetables. Also the beef was not separated into slices properly before cooking and had 3 chunks of beef rolled together in a clump. The restaurant was to busy when I was there, and the order came extremely quickly. A few extra minutes of care in the cooking would have improved the food and my review.
Value for money + quality food = Home run!

Not sure how this casual fast food restaurant is not more famous. To be fair I have only had one item on the menu- will add more as I try other items.
The bowl was really delicious. It is not your typical bowl and with the quantity of toppings you cannot help but be satisfied. The chicken is tender and they use different sauces for the beef, rice and tempura which makes every bite a unique experience.
FYI there is a special sauce at the bottom of the bowl so make sure to get in there to mix it with the rice.
Overall my first experience was great and I hope to try more items on the menu.
Fantastic service and a very nice and quiet place to eat. The servings are sizable, so bring in the hungry fellas and I'm sure they'll be more than satisfied.
