Hibachi Grill and Supreme Buffet opened a couple weeks ago in Sumter, SC, and today I finally got to try out lunch at the new restaurant. Well the first thing that strikes me is the new parking lot.

On the way to the table, I noticed how the mood of the restaurant is bright but pleasant. Even though there is a buzz from diners talking, it is not abnormally loud or annoying.
