My firm's lunch flock went there (first time I was in the site in the two decades I've passed by.) It was packed. Food came very slowly -- I'm sure it was cooling in the kitchen as our waiter spent a long time at each of two or three tables -- probably explaining various dishes. I'm willing to chalk this up to growing pains. The food was tasty, as expected, and the prices and portions also as expected. I don't know that it's worth a special trip, but none of us 8 was disappointed, and it will probably be a rotating stop for our Friday lunches. I had the two chicken "teriyaki" skewers appetizer, very good, $4, and a seafood noodle soup, a big bowl with lots of interesting stuff and noodles, for $6.
