It's basically a fast casual joint pretending to be a Japanese steakhouse (or the other way around). They offer basically the same fare as the full service Hana Japanese Steakhouse just down the road, but at slightly lower prices and without any of the atmosphere. We've only dined in once, but order take-or at least once a month. We don't dine in mainly because 1) the "dining room" feels dirty (it isn't, but it feels that way) and changes temperature every time the door opens; and 2) the kitchen is S.L.O.W. It usually takes at least 20 minutes for our order to come out, and that's if they aren't busy. And you can plainly see that parts of your order are prepared right away and allowed to get cold while the rest is cooked. I think the main entrees are better than Hana, but the sides fail to measure up. The soup is just weak chicken broth with a couple of pieces of green onion in it. So, for us, the biggest advantage of Nagasaki Go is getting the hibachi and Asian food we like at home.
