    We love this experience!  It's a bit like the hibachi experience at 1/2 the price.  We were celebrating my daughter's 16th bday.  We got a great room to seat 13.  Louis was our server and boy was he top notch.  Drinks stayed on full.  He brought us plates and a knife for the cake.  He kept us entertained with his witty jokes.  His memory for our needs was excellent.  Thanks Louis!  The only down star is we had a person with allergies.  They did use clean knifes and separated it but we worried about the grill as it is cross contaminated with other food.  Those chefs work so hard though!

    This place has some qualities to it. It is cheap and... oh wait, it is cheap.

    Let's go from smallest to most annoying (to me). Your napkins are cocktail napkins. Seriously, anywhere else they would go under your drink.

    It lines up quick! Be prepared to wait a long time before you see your food again, they aren't the fastest cooks around.

    This seems to go along with the previous one, they either overcook your food or just don't clean the grill enough. Your food will either taste charred or have bits from other people's meals.

    The lunch pricing is good, only $12 for AYCE. You have the option after your food is done for white, fried, or no rice.

    Would I come back? Maybe, though there are plenty of other options to try in the triangle. They aren't bad, but they aren't amazing.

    I went to Crazy Fire for lunch with some coworkers and was pretty disappointed by the experience. First off, I thought the whole experience was quite confusing. It was my first time there and I wish they had better signage or an explanation about how to go through the line. I thought it was really strange how if you got one bowl you could get a to-go box but if you got two bowls you couldn't get a to-go box.

    I'm not usually weird about raw food and not too worried about sanitation, but I'm gonna be honest and say I did question how clean everything was. My coworker that I was there with told me last time he had the shrimp he got sick but I was thinking it was probably a one-time thing or maybe he has a weak stomach so I decided to get the shrimp (along with chicken and beef) and... I got sick. It wasn't fun.

    The food tasted decent but I won't risk going back again. Also, the service was incredibly slow. It was during the lunch rush and there seemed to be only one server bringing checks. We had to wait ~15 minutes for our checks and ended up being late to a meeting.

    My boyfriend got really sick with stomach issues after eating here. Not saying it was entirely the restaurant's fault, but there's definitely some sort of sanitation issue going on.

    Honestly wish there could be a negative rating because of how unsanitary everything is. After coming here to eat I died the next day and my stomach was in pain. This place has raw food sitting out in the middle of nowhere, there are cockroaches on the ground no joke, and they have raw food touching other foods. They cook the food on a massive grill with a pair of spatulas. They go around the grill cooking peoples food regardless of whether it is raw or not, so your cooked food is being touched by tongs that just touched someone raw food. I would highly suggest people with any sensitivities avoid eating food from the grill since they use water and a scraper to clean the grill. I can't think of any place more unsanitary. Save yourself some time and don't bother coming here.
