" I had high expectations after hearing about Atami Express, but my experience was not great. The chicken was dry and overcooked. I had ordered a hibachi platter, and I was shocked to see only a few pieces of meat. It felt like I was mainly eating rice! I also had to wait a long time at the drive-through, which was frustrating. Overall, I won't be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" People often rave about Atami, but my review stands apart since I didn’t experience anything remarkable. The atmosphere was inviting, but the food lacked a real impact. My dish lacked flavor, and the portions were on the smaller side. I wouldn’t recommend a special trip; it's more of a casual stop than a memorable meal. " (*Curated Review*)

" To say that my last experience at Atami Express was disappointing would be an understatement. After years of enjoying their food, I decided to go back only to find that the quality has significantly dropped. The vegetables tasted like they came from a can, and the chicken was terribly overcooked. The wait time was ridiculous too. I ended up just throwing out half of my meal. I really hope they can turn things around, as I used to enjoy eating here. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoy hibachi-style food, and Atami used to be a favorite of mine, but my recent visit has left me questioning my loyalty. I found the chicken and steak to feel overcooked. Plus, the portion sizes were comically small. The wait time was longer than expected—sadly, I might look for alternatives in the area from now on. " (*Curated Review*)

" After years of positive experiences, I tried Atami again, hoping it would still have the same magic. Unfortunately, what I encountered was disappointing on multiple fronts. My food was not fresh, and the flavors were off. I had very little meat, drowned in a pool of rice. I don’t think I’ll be back anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Very disappointing experience. The service was mediocre, food was subpar at best, and the portions were shockingly small for the price. I won’t be returning to Atami; the food is not what it used to be, and the prices just keep climbing. Move on to another spot for a better hibachi experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" Overall, it was an okay experience at Atami. The flavors in the chicken were decent, but I did wish for more variety in their offerings on the menu. The service was fine, but again, nothing exceptional. It was nice to stop in while running errands, though I wouldn’t seek it out specifically. " (*Curated Review*)
