About Desaki Restaurant

While the platform category is listed as Chinese Restaurant, Desaki Restaurant, located at 2054 PA-611, Swiftwater, PA 18370, primarily offers a Japanese dining experience with a focus on hibachi and sushi. For local users, Desaki presents an interactive dining option with entertaining chefs and a variety of Japanese dishes.

According to one positive review, the service at Desaki is noteworthy. A server named Krysti is described as very sweet and attentive. The hibachi chef, Eko, is highlighted for his engaging personality and efforts to make guests feel included, even using Spanish to connect with some diners. This reviewer found the overall experience lovely, with good food that was prepared fairly quickly. They also mentioned a recommendation for a nearby hotel that added to their positive experience, indicating a connection to local hospitality.

However, another review presents a significantly contrasting experience, describing it as one of the worst they had. This customer found Desaki to be overpriced, with food that was only okay and not worth the cost. A mandatory 20% gratuity was also a point of dissatisfaction. There were issues with seating arrangements, as their party was told they had to sit at the hibachi table to order noodles, even though not everyone wanted hibachi. Additionally, a mistake was made with their sushi order, which took a long time to be corrected.

This negative reviewer also felt rushed after the hibachi cooking was finished, with the check being presented immediately. While they did credit the hibachi chef for a nice show that the children enjoyed and acknowledged that the hibachi food was good, the overall experience led them to not recommend the restaurant due to the pricing, service issues, and mandatory gratuity.

In summary, Desaki Restaurant offers a hibachi dining experience with entertaining chefs and also serves sushi. While some customers have reported positive experiences with attentive service and enjoyable food, particularly the hibachi show, others have expressed concerns about pricing, mandatory gratuity, service inconsistencies, and seating policies. Local users considering Desaki should be aware of these mixed reviews when making their decision. For reservations or inquiries, they can contact the restaurant at (570) 839-2500 or +1 570-839-2500.

My friends and I got there by accident, after hours of driving we decided to stop and it did not disappoint. Our server Krysti was very sweet and attentive, our chef Eko was full of personality and made my friends and I feel included by saying some words in Spanish. Over all, it was a lovely time. We were also recommended the hotel and it was another fun experience. Will be coming back and recommending! Can’t forget— food was great and made fairly quickly.

One of the worst experience we had. It is an overpriced, The food is OK, but it’s not value the price. And they charge you 20% gratuity, which they definitely don’t deserve! We’ve been told that if we want to order noodles, we will have to sit at the hibachi table, although the rest of our party didn’t want hibachi at all, They met a mistake in our sushi order and it took forever to arrive. Also, it felt like whenever the hibachi guy finished cooking. They just wanted us to leave so They can sit the next group, The waitress brought us the check immediately. Yes, I will give credit to the hibachi guy. He did a nice show and the kids liked it and the hibachi food was good. But overall, I don’t recommend anyone to go there.

We celebrated Tiffany's birthday here, and both chefs were amazing. The dinner show is spectacular, and the food is delicious. If you are ever near the area, you should definitely check it out....

First I’ll start off by saying the service was good however they messed up my bill. Food was also good. We came here because we were staying at the resort and wanted to try something different. When you first walk in you will be asked for number of guests and whether sushi or hibachi. 20% service charge is mandatory. Note: if you say sushi because you do not want to sit at a hibachi table and smell like food after you leave, you will not be able to order from anything hibachi. (first time hearing that) See attached image I opened the menu to be greeted with a somewhat lengthy explanation on how they’re about to overcharge me with experiences and services that I won’t be receiving (I never got face painting, DJ, balloons etc) because there wasn’t any that night! You need TWO menus, one with these inflated prices to compensate for the shows you host and another same menu with reduced prices because it inherently feels like I was ripped off. Everything on the menu is extremely overpriced. Most items exceed NY pricing. TLDR: They have a page in the menu that is them trying to justify overcharging you. whether you get any of those services or not is the luck of your day of visit. 65$ for 2 rolls and a side of Noodles
