About this restaurant

  • Lively
  • Good for special occasions
  • Good for groups
Here at "KOBE", we carry on the ancient art of teppanyaki - hibachi style cooking, in authentic Japanese country-inn ambience.
The word "KOBE" suggests to the gourmet the ultimate in the finest beef, raised on delicacies, and gently massaged to perfection.

Watch as we lovingly prepare the most tender steak, the freshest seafood, free-range chicken, and garden fresh vegetables - all before your very eyes in true Japanese style.

    We always make Kobe’s our go to place for special occasions. This time it was our son’s graduation dinner. We were disappointed on many levels this visit. The chef we had did no special tricks or shows as we have always loved and come to expect at Kobe’s. We were also served 3 shrimp each for the shrimp appetizer. Ridiculous. Every time before this we’ve always received at least double the amount. Not 3 small shrimp. We were also met with annoyance when we asked if we could order fried rice. Other Kobe’s provide ice cream at the end of the meal, this one does not except with the kids meals. Overall, the chef, the food, and portions were disappointing. For an almost $500 meal, there are far better places to spend that kind of money. Kobe’s has lost our loyalty.
