    Haven't been here for a few years and still just as impressed! Show up just before your reservation time for the best experience. Once we were close to our time we were seated. Soup was immediately served and our drink orders were taken and came quickly. Server was great, gave us to go sauces and to go containers at the end. Chef was funny and put on a great show. I got the filet and it was cooked perfectly medium rare like I asked. Rice was delicious, I could have done without the sprouts though. Overall it's a fun night every time! Hard to talk to your group but it's an experience and fun for a special occasion.

    Went to Kobe on a Friday night right at 5:00 for our reservation. We hadn't been here in many years, and my 10-year-old wanted to try it. We had a party of six, including two kids. Since our full party was already there, we were seated right away. Our waitress, Kim, explained everything thoroughly and was attentive throughout the entire night. Our chef, Alex, was phenomenal. He made our children feel included and entertained the whole time. He was very friendly and kept the excitement going throughout dinner. I had the filet mignon, and it was delicious. Even my 10-year-old, who normally doesn't eat steak, tried it and kept asking for more! The fried rice was the best I've ever had. For appetizers, we ordered the edamame and crab rangoons, and both were excellent. From the food to the overall experience, we had such a lovely and fun evening. Definitely pricey but for the experience it is worth it.

    Wow! What a beautiful birthday experience here! Our cook was amazing. Our table was awesome by the window and the food was spectacular! I had steak and shrimp and it did not disappoint. You get so much food and it's worth it. The expresso martini was delicious! I couldn't have asked for a better experience!!

    First time at Kobe to celebrate some birthdays and I see why people love it here! The food was fantastic, I can't fathom how they make fried rice taste so good (that's before we even got the main courses). I love that we all got a little salad and soup with our meals, and the steak and shrimp were delicious of course. We even had enough to make a great lunch the next day. Of course, you don't just go to Kobe for the food (even though it is a full five stars on its own), you also get a wonderful dining experience at the hibachi grill. Our chef was very personable and experienced. He cracked jokes throughout the night, kept everyone's orders well, and got pretty much everyone to catch a shrimp in their mouth!

    This place is such a fun experience! Our chef was so funny and had lots of puns. He was super friendly and made the experience wonderful! I got the land and sea with shrimp and steak and the food was delicious. I loved that they started you out with soup and salad before bringing out the fried rice, veggies, and your main dish. They also had some great dipping sauces. The grill tricks were super fun to watch and the restaurant was very clean and well set up for this! Great place for a celebration or just a fun dinner out

    I tried Kobe for the first time last night with a large group and it was so good!! Our server was great, I was sitting at the kids table and everybody kept dropping forks and he always got us new ones pretty quickly lol! He recommended the filet mignon so me and my sister both ordered that with fried rice. I definitely would've taken a picture but it was so good I ate it really fast. The portions were really good too and almost everyone in my group took a box home for leftovers! Overall a great experience :)

    disclaimer they no longer serve sushi here... Had to take one star away for that my daughter was hoping to have her favorite roll like she gets at Osaka. I had convinced her to try somewhere now since we're doing some shopping in Village point and this is so convenient. The ambience and aesthetic when you walk in gives you more of an upscale feel. Our chef was amazingly entertaining table side. We are sat with another family with kids around the same age as my daughter so many Shirley temples were ordered that they came out with a pitcher. food was good, but could've used a tab with more seasoning. Fried rice is always the best part and they were plenty of leftovers.

    This was our family's first time at Kobe. We had went to Osaka in the past. Not that Osaka is bad by any means because we have never had a bad experience there. Kobe, felt like a little step above. The real reason why was the hard take on making sure that our oldest son could eat with an egg allergy. The staff made it very clear that allergens would be VERY accommodated by the restaurant. I use all caps for VERY because they stressed it multiple times. The staff is friendly, the ambience is a little loud but that is what you would expect from a Hibachi restaurant. The food, especially the fried rice, I recommend the $4 upgrade, it's delicious! We, a party of 5, sat with a party of 3 and the chef made sure that it was fun among both families by catching food in our mouths with thunderous applause upon success. Good times for all!

    Great customer service, fun presentation, we loved our chef and the food was good. We celebrated our 22 anniversary, it was fun to celebrate with others too.

    You could just eat here, but for the prices it's more like a special night out. Enjoy the show and plan a party of people. You can have 10 at a station or reserve two connected stations. Whatever you do, don't be a bozo; make a reservation! And if you get in their email list they'll send you coupons every now and again. The food is good but what you're paying for is the show. This is a large, flat hibachi cook top. The cook will make jokes, entertain you with skills, and flip shrimp into your mouth. You will have a separate server to bring you drinks, your traditional Japanese starter soup and salad, and coordinate the "Banzai" birthday (for an extra $6 included the gong ringing, photo, and cheesecake dessert (yes this use to be free, but not any more)). Note: This isn't a place you sit and talk with your loved ones. This is a place for showmanship. Kobe is loud as all the chefs are doing their own thing and families who are in their "down time" - between the show and paying the bill - are yelling across the hibachi to be heard, plus the special occasion gong (which happens at least once at each time). Other than that, the food is good and we go annually for my younger son's birthday. "Banzai!"

    Kobe was so fun! It was one of those experiences that you think back and say to yourself " I'd do it again." A group of friends went together to celebrate a birthday. The host let us know that everyone on the party needed to be present to be situated which makes sense for this type of restaurant. The chef or the person cooking the food ( I am not sure what they called themselves) was so friendly and funny and it was an awesome experience. Be ready to laugh, have a good time and catch food with you mouth!

    I have a love-hate relationship with Kobe. I've had a few good experiences and one really terrible one. The proteins and veggies at Kobe were delicious and filling, and the meals are not too expensive! It is a little more than other restaurants of the same caliber, but this includes a little interaction and fun with the chef. The cook stands right at your table, lights up the grill in front of him with a large flame, and goes to work on your appetizers! They have little tricks that they do with their knives/spatulas/sauces and even get the diners involved in the little show (throwing pieces of chicken and making you catch it in your mouth, etc). Another plus is that you get to try some of what everyone orders (so everyone should get something different, if you want to share a few bites to try different items). Now, on to the reason for the three star review. Our last visit to Kobe was on a quiet Saturday afternoon. The staff were all just standing around chatting in small groups when we walked in and asked for a table. One of them piped up that there were none available. I kid you not, there was not one table with diners in the entire place. They were not closed, they were not all booked up, no reason given - they just would not serve us. It was so bizarre. Because of this, we kind of promised ourselves we would not eat there again. That level of (lack of) service is the reason for my rating, unfortunately, no matter how good the food is.

    I had a very tasty lunch at Legacy Chophouse. I was in the area for an appointment and decided to…read morestop in after seeing lots of parking as I drove by. A friendly, loquacious fellow quickly showed me to a booth, then retreated to the bar. I was actually seated in the bar area, but I could hear the noise of diners on the other side of the wall. A quick glance later confirmed another dining area, plus outdoor seating and an apparent balcony that also had tables. The menu has a lot of choices but only one jumped out at me as vegan--the black bean burger. The waitress asked if I was ok with cheese on it, which I was. I also ordered a serving of French onion soup, which just seemed like it would hit the spot. For the small amount of diners in the space, it took a bit longer than expected to get my lunch. The soup was already cool enough to eat, which surprised me. The burger was also not piping hot which makes me think the food was sitting out for awhile before it got to me. However, that didn't stop me from enjoying it. The cheesy crouton on the soup was stretchy with melted cheese atop lots of onions and flavorful broth. The burger had onions, lettuce and tomato slices dressing it, and had a bit of spiciness that was just right. I had coffee too, and it was good. This place is far off from my usual haunts, so likely I won't be back, unless I happen to be in the area again.

    We stopped by for an early Saturday dinner and enjoyed our meal. We both ordered the steak salads,…read morewhich were delicious, well worth trying if you're deciding what to get. At $25 each, they're on the pricier side, but the quality made up for it. Food took a little longer than expected to come out, but the staff was friendly and polite throughout, which made the wait easier to overlook. Overall a solid experience, we'd go back.
