Sapporo

I have eaten Teppanyaki in Chicago, San Francisco, and Orlando, FL, and Sapporo is the best I've tried. The flavors intermingle perfectly, the atmosphere is classy but welcoming, and the service we received  was top-notch, especially for Fort Wayne. I am not a fan of sushi, but my spouse is and said the Ichiban and Kyoto rolls are fabulous! I AM a cheesecake afficianado, and loved the tempura cheesecake with chocolate topping. We dined on a Monday night and had a minimal wait for everything. Highly recommended!

I went to Sapporo for dinner on a Friday around 8pm. I've been dying to try this place out since it opened. Well I finally went with two friends and it seemed like a great idea. We were seated at our own grill table and our server was really nice her name was Paige. She was friendly funny and always there when we needed something. I had a drink called the Hawaiian Volcano which was really good and definitely big enough to share. I ordered the Steak, Chicken, And Shrimp combination. It all came out looked great got fried rice to go with it and quite a show put on with our chef lots of joking and all was great. I was over halfway through my meal and found a blonde hair about 10 inches long in my rice. I was absolutely disgusted. Our server watched me pull it out of my mouth put it into a napkin and ran to the back. She came out and told me that the manager would take care of it. I ended up getting sick just thinking about it and lost my dinner to say the least. The manager took care of the bill that's for sure. She gave me a $7 discount. I looked at the server said really? Even the server agreed said it was a little outrageous. I then spoke with the manager who was very kind I said I thought $7 was a little far fetched considering I got sick and you saw the hair. She appologized seeing how upset I was and said she would take care of it. So revised bill #2 comes out well she decided to discount it $14. I am sorry but at that point I lost it. We had over a $180 bill and your going to give me $14 off she said well sir I saw your plate and there was hardly any meat left on it. I felt like I was being attacked and she was arguing with me. I said well you can find the rest of the meat in your toilet because that's where it went. She finally took my item off of the bill after another 5 minutes of arguing. I have never felt so attacked at a place. Sapporo looks amazing, the atmosphere is great we had a great dinner but HORRIBLE customer service. I will never ever go back here again. The manager there that night ruined the entire experience and I would never take anyone I know there again or tell my friends about it.

Coming from California, we have had all kinds of sushi and I must say this is awesome! Try the hwe-do-pop bowl, it is soooooooo good! It is sashimi on top of rice with the spicy Korean sauce. They are very generous with the sushi portion size too! get your money's worth! The building is clean and the bathrooms are very fancy! Definitely recommend you come here!
