They do! Nothing is more fun than eating with friends or family around a hibachi table, from the fireball heat that starts the experience to the laughs of trying to catch food or sake from across the hot grill, it's dinner with an experience. Plus, you get to watch your food made right in front of you!

If you are all about sushi, Kume is the place to be.

It hasn't been open for a month, and it's wowing customers! A typical review right now is either four or five stars, with only good things to say,

First thought, the place is very attractive. Definitely a professional handled the design. Food was very good. Our sashimi plate was a visual knockout and very fresh and tasty.  Will definitely go back. It's a welcome addition to the SOPO dining scene.

I don't live in South Portland, but this is definitely on my 'new places to try' list!
