Went here tonight with some friends for a birthday dinner. The place was its usual busy loud self. We got seated right on time, and didn't have to wait on anything. I got the Hibachi Shrimp. It was delicious as always. Five of the six dinners were delicious. The Calamari was a little bit too tough. Luckily the birthday boy didn't get the birthday gong treatment! Our waiter did a good job. And our cook did a excellent job, and was very entertaining. read more

Best Hibachi in the city. Great experience, fun but not the same old same that you often see at these types of restaurants. Several delicious and unique dipping sauces. Huge portions. read more

One of my favorites hands down. Fun, family oriented, great food, great drinks, entertaining chefs. You couldn't ask for much more other than a private table where you don't have to sit with people you don't know. read more

My husband has been wanting to come here for a while so we took him for his birthday in December. The service was very good but the food was average for the price. Our adult beverages were average as well. My husband enjoyed his experience as did our kids but we all agreed the food was just Ok. read more

Entertaining time out with friends or family. The food was great and cooked perfectly.

LOVE THIS PLACE! My daughter and I have celiacs , Kobe staff did an excellent job keeping our food safe and taking care of us. All of our food was made first then he continued with the rest of the table's food. We were trilled that we have another restaurant to keep in mind. My other kids always enjoy catching the shrimp and getting to be the center of all the jokes! read more

Kobe is my favorite restaurant! I love the food, the show is always fun to watch, and I leave feeling good about what I ate. Highly recommend! read more

The perfect dinner spot to celebrate my sons birthday! We had a reservation and the host promptly sat us when the entire party had arrived. We love hibachi style food and this did not disappoint. The lobster is as good as it gets and complimented the filet very well. read more

I went here for Father's Day with the family & we had an excellent dinner together. The service was on-point from the start; we never had to ask for refills, (they had a girl assigned specifically to that task like many higher-end restaurants do)...appetizers were served promptly & hot. Our dinner was cooked in front of us right after appetizers were finished. (No delays) The decor was dimmed & casual, you had a very comfortable feeling dining at this place that is hard to duplicate. Our Chef prepared our food using fresh ingredients & it was well-done & flavorful. The portion sizes were excellent for the price we paid... and the show the chef put on during our meal was funny & entertaining as well. I had the steak & lobster with wan-tan soup, a salad & (as an added bonus) they fed me shrimp! I learned I had a talent for catching shrimp in my mouth when someone tosses it my way while I was at it! Overall, Kobe Japanese Steakhouse (At Village Point in Omaha) has the right combination of great service, well-prepared food, excellent portion sizes for the price we paid, casual decor & an entertaining, unique, and talented Chef to make me give THIS dining experience a 5-star rating... I'd recommend it to any & everyone! read more

Went to Kobe on New Years Eve, they had great customer service, food was good and affordable!

We had to wait 10 minutes beyond our reserved time, so I will start with what happened during the wait. We had full view of the bar and bartenders as we stood near the hostesses. The two bartenders displayed some of the most unsanitary practices we have ever seen. They touched everything in sight, from dirty glasses to cell phones, their hair and masks, without once washing their hands. The most egregious offense was when one of them picked up several dirty glasses from a serving tray by inserting her fingers inside the glasses. She then immediately grabbed a clean glass, poured a mixed drink and sat the filled glass down with her fingers near the brim (where the customers lips would soon be) without washing her hands. Any potential viruses or bacteria from several people were distributed throughout the bar via bottles and directly to a customer via the glass, just in that one instance. After being seated, we ordered an appetizer and our main courses. No drinks, not even water, after what we witnessed at the bar. Our chef was mildly entertaining and the food was just ok. Shrimp was good, steak was so-so and the chicken was dry. Vegetables were fresh but somewhat undercooked. The show put on by the chef seemed quite contrived and less than genuine. I can see were doing the same thing for each table night after night could reduce the level of excitement in your performance. Overall, the food was not on par with the price. The small entertainment value of watching our food being prepared was not enough to offset the negatives of the dining experience. Note to management: The effectiveness of wearing a mask is greatly reduced when you have two super spreaders behind the bar. read more

I love this place. And my kids loooove it. Fun experience and food is good for what it is worth. I dont go there looking for excellent quality and tasting good bcus it is really the fun experience. Bit the food is tasty as well. Fun bday routine. read more

Went here for our daughters birthday most recently, but have been here quite a few times over the years. Depending on who your 'chef' is, I would say it can easily rank as a three star place, but the guy we had this time was a blast, and cooked our meal very well at the same time. I would say kids really like it, as the place was packed when we arrived, and 90% of the tables had kids. Basically you sit around a large cooktop, place your order (steak, chicken, shrimp, etc.) and your meal is prepared in front of you, with the chef cracking some jokes (usually the same stuff, but our guy went off script a bit so it was fun) flipping things in the air and performing little tricks as he goes. You end up with an Americanized Asian dish of meat, veggies and steamed or fried rice. Our meal this time was very good, the steak cooked well and very tender. The shrimp tends to get a bit over cooked, but they do save some to try and flip from the grill to your mouth. Overall, it is a decent meal, with a bit of entertainment to boot. Not a bad place to come from time to time, especially if you have kids in tow. read more

Very COVID friendly. It was my first time and I absolutely loved our chef at our table. He had all the spunk & jokes and I am happy that my experience was pleasant. Our waiter was very nice and checked in often. The food was tasty and FRESH! This is a great place to bring your spouse for anniversary or if you want to impress your new GF/BF. :) read more

Love Kobe. I have been going to Kobe since it was at Regency and it has always been a favorite for my family. You can sit up to 10 I believe at a table and it's fun to do so. The chefs usually have the same jokes but for some reason I laugh every time. I have tried to make Kobe fried rice at home countless times and it never tastes the same no matter how many times I watch them make it, theirs is so much read more

Such an awesome experience! First time here and food was delicious! James was hilarious and did a great job cooking and entertaining read more

We love Kobe! Can never decide between Kobe or Genji when we want hibachi. Tim's the best chef! Also one place Kobe really shines is the little bowl of soup before the meal starts. Every other hibachi places, this tastes like dish water, but somehow Kobe's is great! read more

Service was awful on our visit. Never got one refill of our drink. Then tried using a American Express that was a brand new card. Not only did the Kobe took money from that but also our visa to our checking account. Told by kobe to wait 3 business days and call back. After waiting 5 days three of which are business days. So after driving an hour each way and getting double charged we still have no resolution to this nightmare read more

The first time we went here it was awesome. We got in on a pretty short wait and everything was perfect. NOT the second time. It technically wasn't even a second time because we Left. Hostess was asking for our reservation instead of greeting us first, I told her we didn't have one, we didn't have one the first time we came either- she said she would have to have us wait until a reservation didn't show up before we could be seated because they were basically "reservations only" now. NOWHERE on the website does it say this nor is there a sign, or anything. I looked online before we left and it says "walk in's welcome" obviously not. Definitely not the friendliest customer service based way to present that to us EVEN IF they actually were enforcing reservations only. I guess make sure to make a reservation or wait hungry if you can until someone doesn't show up! UPDATE* owner DID reach out and made things right! Thank you! Looking forward to seeing this through with another visit soon! read more

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Kobe has been delivering the same thing for years with quality food and service. You know what you get when you go to Kobe. You know you're going to be paying more than your average run of the mill place, but the food is always good and I feel like it's worth it. The jokes are the same since the first day I tried this place many years ago. The place is always clean and the bathrooms are nice. read more

The shrimp was delicious.. the filet was inedible due to dousing it in their sauce when cooking it. The chicken was too dry to eat. Our chef guy was decent read more

Drinks were great. Service was par at best. The cook was terrible couldn't even cut an egg without more than one try. Was slow and all over the place with meals and just not fun read more

Hands down the best food I've had at a hibachi. The salad, appetizers and my meal were so good! I even finished my entire rice, steak, chicken and veggies because it was so good. The only and I stress only minimal thing that could have been a bit better was the soup - it would good, but could use more flavor. I can't wait to come back again! We all loved it! read more

Went there on Friday night with an 8 PM reservation. Waited just long enough to get a drink at the bar and then we were seated. Very impressive presentation and comfortable seating. Be prepared for big portions and a to go box. Overall very good experience and outstanding food and service! read more

My wife and I had dinner here with my brother and his wife early evening yesterday. The food was excellent. My wife had the tuna and thought it was a generous portion and tasted fantastic. I had the scallops and shrimp. I felt they were a little stingy on the scallops portion (4 sea scallops), but they provided a generous portion of shrimp. My food was delicious. I even ate the broccoli (which I've always felt was a "vile weed"), because of the spices they put on it and the way they prepared it. My brother has a shell fish allergy, so they accommodated him by preparing some of the seafood last. He had the steak and salmon, and his wife had the steak and shrimp. Both commented on how good their meals were. We had a 5 pm reservation, and were seated right on time. It was getting busy even there early on , even for a week day, so I recommend you arrive earlier rather than later, as the place was packed by the time we finished at 6:30 pm. We were lucky to have been seated with a very nice middle-aged couple and their two well behaved boys, which made for an enjoyable evening. Service was excellent! Our cook was very entertaining. About the only negative take away I have is that I felt their wine and whiskey pricing was a bit on the high side. read more

Soooo good. Love this place. We always get the shogun which should be great when you are getting Lobster, Filet, and Scallops. It was really quite good!! read more

We came here for my boyfriends 18th birthday and our homecoming dinner. We made reservations for 6pm and we came in at 5:50pm and they had us wait but it wasn't for very long. The server was very nice and didn't make us feel rushed when he got our drink order and our dinner order. He was refilling our glasses all night which was amazing. The cook was hilarious, very kind, and made the food taste amazing! By the time the cook was done we had already pretty much finished all of her food which we thought was awesome because we had some sort of entertainment as we were eating. Overall the dinner took way less time than we thought it was going to which also was awesome! The only thing I would say is that they did not do anything for the birthday other than just hand us the cheesecake but for anyone else who had birthdays they had brought out a birthday sign and something that they were banging on, which was the main reason why we had picked the place for his birthday dinner because we heard about them banging on something and bringing out a sign but they did not do that for us. Other than that the place was amazing! read more

I enjoyed an Awesome Birthday Dinner here recently! The food, made before your own eyes, is top quality. Not only is the meat and seafood fresh, but the fried rice is delectable. Our chef was extremely witty while also mixing in several jokes and tricks I had not seen at similar hibachi grills. I will definitely return to take in another experience, whether for a birthday or simply for an enjoyable evening with a wide array of delicious food and entertainment! read more

I just have to second everything I put in my original review. We had a fabulous event, birthday for my seven-year-old, they accommodated more people than they normally would, the meal was delicious, the service was great, nothing more I could ask for. read more

Everything was good and the food was great as usual, but the bar tending was not great at all they didn't have a variety of liquor to make many of the drinks we have requested. read more

I've just been here for the first time with a group of eight(including me) and the experience was fantastic! The food was great and the presentation of the food was amazing. Our whole group laughed and smiled and had a genuinely good time the entire time we were there. I definitely recommend taking a group of friends there as I enjoyed every part of the experience! read more

Servers are very conscious of food allergies and will prepare food accordingly (i.e. Shellfish, gluten free, etc). Food is cooked very well and they offer a great variety of vegetables, proteins, etc. The personal chef was entertaining and added enjoyment to the evening. This wouldn't be for everyday dining but lots of fun for birthdays and once and awhile experiences. read more

Loved dining here! It has a great variety of good to choose from. I tried the crab Rangoon... they were average, but the main dish of filet mignon and shrimp were top notch! The experience of having a chef cook right in front of you is really cool ... our chef was beyond awesome... my teenager was very impressed also! They have a rewards program which is nice if you eat out often. Can't wait to go back again! read more

The food ok nothing to celebrate but not horrible. The chef was very rehearsed. His presentation was scripted. Again food ok. What really bothered me was there was an used lemon half on the ground when one staff members noticed and said to me "oh gross lemon on the floor not my job to pick it up". Then two other staff members walked by and even stepped over it before finally someone cleaned up the floor. read more

Kobe has been our favorite restaurant for the past few years. It is our go to for birthdays and when we have friends or family in town. We have been reluctant to get out much in lieu of the pandemic. Tonight we decided to get out and I am so glad we did. Service, food and entertainment were great as always. More importantly my family felt totally safe. The new safety measures Kobe has put in place gives you the same fun atmosphere with the peace of mind that safety is Kobe's top priority. read more

Not great flavor and service is abysmal. The soup is salty and bitter. The salad is more of a soup - get the dressing on the side. The grill offerings have varied based on our chefs, sometimes tasty, but often not. Such a disappointment. read more

Came here last night with a group of 9 for a bachelorette party. We all had a really good experience and enjoyed our chef! He was super interactive and didn't just stick to their "routine". The chef made sure to keep the spotlight on the bachelorette, and for being her first time at Kobe, she really enjoyed her time. Since some of us have been here a few times in the past, we didn't feel any extreme redundancy in the show either. Our server was also awesome! He was very timely on our food and drink orders and I always appreciate a server who keeps the waters filled. I ordered a few shots throughout the night and he got them to us quickly. As for the food and drinks, the Mt.Fuji was delicious (frozen drink). The land and sea (steak and shrimp) was cooked perfectly. I like medium rare and I got medium rare. Sometimes the steak has gotten overcooked with my precious visits, but this time it was cooked how I ordered it. The food is a little over soy-sauced in opinion but it was still all very good. The fried rice is definitely a 10/10! It's hard not to eat all of it before the meat gets served! Only downfall of our experience was that our reservation was at 730 and we didn't get sat until 8. We notified the hostesses that our group went from 12 to 9 upon arrival, 7 of us were there and 2 were on their way. When talking to the hostesses, they came off passively rude and said "we'll talk when your whole group actually gets here". Working in the restaurant business for many years, I understand that your group often doesn't get sat until everyone is here or at least the majority. Understandable. But when our group arrived, hostess said that they were still getting our table "ready" and that we are second on the list. I assume that they just gave our table away because other walk-in groups were being sat before us. Other than this mishap, we enjoyed our dinner and I'm happy to say I have leftovers to enjoy! read more

With our online reservation at 5:30, Aug 31, we were supposed to get a 15% discount. We had 11 people. We were celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary. I gave the waiter our discount coupon. Sadly, he did not do anything with it. I didn't notice that we didn't get the discount until after we left because our children paid the total bill. I contacted Kobe via facebook but apparently got the wrong Kobe. Other than not getting the discount, we were pleased with the service, the chef was great, the food was great. read more

We went here for my father in law's Birthday! Very fun experience! Definitely dinner and a show. It's a little pricey per person; however, you get a ton of food. I'd recommend going here when you have a big dinner party/group. I could see a romantic date night here being not so romantic because people are loud, interactive with the cook, and there's only tables seating 8 -no table for two. read more
