    We frequently visit Hibachi restaurants. The meal here was one of the best we've had. Everything, including the soup, was great (which sometimes tastes like dishwater - not so here). Our waitress was quick and helpful. Our chef was entertaining and talented. Gave 4 out of 5 stars because the tables are packed closer than some places we have gone. It's not difficult to move about, but it does make it louder than most hibachi restaurants. It's good to be aware of for anyone with sensory issues.

    Outstanding service from walking in the door to walking out. The servings are amazing, was on top of all the drinks with refills, told them it was my nieces first vacation and they gave us two cupcakes (free of charge) and sang for us. My girlfriend can’t have much butter or oil and he was very conscious of that while cooking on the table. The server was named Go Go and he was an amazing person. The man who took our drinks and orders was names Anton and he was a great character with so much love and excitement. Would for sure recommend this place for anyone looking for good vibes, great food, and a night out in Orlando.

    We have been coming to Kobé for years when we are in the area (which is several times a year). The food has just gotten better and better. We love hibachi-style Japanese restaurants and can sincerely say that this is the best one that we go to, from Rhode Island to Florida to Virginia. While most hibachi restaurants offer soup or salad and, at least, white rice, Kobé serves soup (which is very tasty), salad (the best ginger dressing), fried rice AND garlic noodles. This is the only place that gives you all of them wrapped up in the single price of your meal. In addition, they have a large sushi selection, as well as, a large drink selection. They ask if anyone is celebrating and my daughter was celebrating a big one (21). The chef paid close attention to her, wishing her a happy birthday no fewer than 12 times and even posing for a picture with her at the end after he had already left the table. Toyota, our chef, was outstanding! From his cooking skills to his sense of humor, he was entertainment at its finest. At first blush, the prices may seem high, but I ask you to consider, where else can you go to get two appetizers, three sides, freshly cooked meats (to your specification), vegetables, rice and pasta as you watch, and an entire dinner show, all included in that very price? If you think of it this way, it is an absolute bargain! And, did I mention that the food is ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS?!! If you're in the area (they actually have 4 or 5 locations, I believe), don't hesitate to try them out! You won't be disappointed!

    Great entertainment and good food! We came here on Valentine's Day, and they were able to get us in pretty quickly. The food was delicious, and the service was very friendly. We loved the entertainment of the hibachi, and it really added to the experience. Pricing was comparable to other hibachis. We will be back!

    We tried to get reservations for hibachi at all three locations to no avail, so we took a chance and walked in. There was an hour wait for seats, and after reading the reviews we knew it might be longer than that so we choose to just sit in the restaurant, which we enjoyed. We were served quickly and everything was made to order. We ended up ordering hibachi at our table. They have pretty big servings, and everything was good. I would say the noodles were a bit greasy, but flavored. My husband ordered well done steak, which they dried out completely, but again that's the chance you take when you order well done. We would come back for sure, but would make sure to have a reservation for hibachi.

    Over the years Kobe's have reduced the amount of food they give to people and I think most restaurants does that but it harm because you pay more for less. Back in the day you pay $70 for dinner and still have to go but now food not even enough to full you while at restaurants.

    The food and service here was awesome. We came here for my son's 21st birthday and we had a wonderful time. Highly recommend for any evening out. Food was delicious and the entertainment was so much fun! Good drinks also from the bar! We will be back.

    Brilliant place for dinner Everything freshly cooked at the table. Really entertaining chef ( Anton), great food and great atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit. The steak was the stand out dish. Soup and salad always included and the servings are generous so probably don’t need appetisers.

    The onion soup was amazing! The taste of the soup was very rich. Our server Jenny was amazing and she was very attentive to our needs. She made sure we felt welcomed! Now let’s get to the entree… the rice was crunchy (burned a little). I really didn’t like it at all. I am visiting the area and we have a Kobe in ATL so I was trying not to compare it but it was hard not to. This location advertises being #1 and I expected more from it. The noodles were great. My sirloin steak kind of tasted like roast. I’m not sure if that’s how it’s supposed to taste. I loved my lobster and how it was sautéed with the mushrooms. The Kobe in ATL usually gives larger portions. I really feel like I didn’t get my moneys worth out of the food. My ticket totaled to $132 for my husband and I. We both felt that the portion size was off by a lot. Other than that, the experience and customer service was amazing.

    We came here after a long day of work and I’m so glad we did. This restaurant has a nice mix of a zen and earthy feel to it. A great way to relax. They have two sides. One with the hibachi tables and the other side my husband and I named the sushi room. It was less of a wait time to eat in the sushi room so we chose to eat on that side. While we waited we sat by the koi pond and just watched the fish and enjoy the soothing sound of the waterfall. Once seated we each ordered something from each side. My lobster volcano roll was so tasty and a good portion. My husband ordered something from the hibachi side. It was definitely a generous portion. He was even able to bring some back to the resort for leftovers. We would definitely recommend this place as a date night type of place.

    First of all, I want to thank the young couple that paid for our meal. This was extremely kind of you to pay for our meal even with the little one crying. It reminded me of several years ago(memories). I enjoyed the little ones. You were so worried we didn't enjoy ourselves. This makes my husband's 73 birthday very memorable. Ivwished ae had your names. Being brief, you meet some great people here. My husband wants to adopt these young people This is a great restraint with great food and staff. Never a lull in service and always a smile.Our food was top notch.

    Always a wonderful time at Kobe Japanese Steakhouse 🇯🇵 Super nice staff and a cute little koi fish pond. If you’re in the greater Orlando area, go check it out for yourself. They also have Bubble Tea 5 stars all the way!!!! The birthday song was awesome!!! Thanks for the great time Kobe team!

    I have not been to Kobe in 15 years and I wanted to have my kids experience how amazing it is. It was still exactly how I remembered. The service was great from Sandy. Kenny was our cook and he was hilarious and the food was phenomenal. American Tony came to introduce himself at the end and thanked us for coming. I HIGHLY recommend! Everything was perfect!

  • 5/5 Kendra R. 5 months ago on Google
    Sandy was our server and Kenny was our chef and they were both fantastic! My husband and I came here for our honeymoon and it was beyond amazing! They also gave us two cupcakes that said congrats and it was so sweet. This place is awesome! 10/10 would come here again!

    We came here for our anniversary and our server Jason was amazing, very attentive & did a great job taking care of us the whole time. Our chef Mitsubishi was also great he was funny and did a great job entertaining the table. The manager tony was super nice, he came out at the end and sang us a song for our anniversary overall 10/10 experience.

  • 5/5 Michael M. 9 months ago on Google
    Pros: + good food + entertaining experience + friendly staff Cons: - food can be a little greasy and high in calories - price is a little high, we paid $274 for a group of seven My family and I visited Kobe’s for my sister’s birthday. It was an entertaining experience having the cook perform while serving the food. His sense of humor definitely made the visit worth while. There was no wait to be seated but I did make a reservation in advance and I recommend making one before visiting. All the menus are on QR codes you scan with your phone but you can get a physical menu if you ask. An 18% gratuity is included with the order so there’s no need to do the tipping mental math. The only con I can think of is the food choices are a little high on the calorie and fat side. Those on a diet may want to look elsewhere. We also paid $274 for a group of 7 so get your wallets ready! Overall I would recommend Kobe’s as a great place to visit for special occasions or if you want a memorable experience!

    Kobé is an excellent restaurant in all aspects. Our chef was fantastic and all of their staff were very friendly and attentive. The food was absolutely delicious and the portions were generous. If you're looking for a great meal with some entertainment and interaction, this is definitely a place I would recommend.

  • 5/5 Zulkeira P. 6 months ago on Google
    Besides the long wait while waiting for the chef, the food was delicious and our server Jason was just simply AMAZING!! Never have i ever had such a great service, always very attentive and making sure we were alright. At the end of the service he got my hubby and i two cupcakes and sang a celebration song for our anniversary.

  • 5/5 Amanda J. 6 months ago on Google
    Sandy, Takashi were ABSOLUTELY amazing! Our manager Tony was awesome as he sang and played the drums for the birthday boy! I would recommend coming here and eating! So good!

    Had a terrific time, food and service was great. Connie and Chef Richardson were a absolute pleasure. I will revisit next time I'm in town.

  • 3/5 The G. 1 year ago on Google
    I really wanted to love this restaurant, specifically because the great service and nice environment in the “regular dining” side of the restaurant. The biggest disappointment was in the quality and portion of the food, especially for the price. The hostesses, Faith and Sasha, selected a nice table for my party. The server was very sweet (her name tag was blank), and a lady who appeared to be a supervisor walked around checking in on things. The decor was pleasant enough. The down side was when we received our regular sized chicken hibachi meal (you can order those from that side of the restaurant) and the California roll. The chicken was dry/overcooked, the noodles, rice, and veggies were cooked in too much oil, and the roll was bland. If the prices were lower, it would be expected to have lower quality foods. Overall, the nice service helped me have a nice experience, but not enough to return. I had a 3.6 experience, with the food falling very short on reasonable expectations.

    Great experience! Delicious and fresh food. It was so fun and everyone was really nice. Perfect place for birthday celebrations with a large group. Thank Connie for your help!

  • 1/5 onthegoboomer 1 year ago on Google
    In my personal opinion the food was not enjoyable. The prices are excessive for what you get. We were a party of 12 celebrating a birthday and made a reservation. We had about a 30 minute wait as they were alternating people with reservations and those who were walkins. I don’t agree with that practice. They didn’t include shrimp in the meal, no bean sprouts, no sesame seeds, the chicken tasted as if it had been rapidly defrosted. The “show” was minimal. The food was ultimately over cooked. All in all it had very little taste and is not a place I plan to return to.

  • 5/5 Jen A. 1 year ago on Google
    If I could give this more than a five I would! This restaurant is awesome. Very fun, great food, excellent service. We loved it! I had the teriyaki steak. So delicious! The experience is the best part. Such a fun family event.

  • 5/5 Juan P. 1 year ago on Google
    Connie was an excellent attentive server and Toyota was a hilarious and extraordinary chef. An incredible pair to say the least! Came here for my girlfriend and I’s anniversary and was welcomed with top of the line service. Thank you both so much definitely a memorable evening for the both of us! 😁

  • 4/5 Bernie A. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered through UberEats and took about an hour to receive. All in all I highly favored the Sushi especially their grilled lobster roll. I believe to be worth the price and giving a try if you have enough to spare on this piece. I ordered three different types of rolls for myself and none failed me so I’d definitely order from here again when I’m back in Orlando.

  • 1/5 John R. 1 year ago on Google
    Had dinner here today. Sushi was excellent prepared. I’ve ordered 2 child meals for my 2 kids, but the server strategically charged us one child meal and one adult meal. And they also automatically add 18% service charge to your bill. I’d have tip 20% if they don’t do that. Very disappointed, very dishonest business strategy.

  • 4/5 Simon C. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice Japanese steak / sushi restaurant on Highway 192. Lots of parking. My wife and I visited in September 2022, no reservation but we were seated immediately. We had two entrees that also came with a crab soup and salad. We ordered extra Spring Rolls as well as an appetiser. Portion sizes were large and very tasty. Cost was approx. $40 each with soft drinks. 18% service charge was automatically included.

    We came here for my birthday dinner and had a fantastic time! We sat at a regular booth and our server TJ was so nice and incredibly attentive. We had super fast service and the drinks and food were delicious! My mom had mentioned she wanted to grab the tab because it was my birthday and the manager Tony, and our server TJ came out with a cupcake and sang me happy birthday which was so sweet since she had only mentioned it in passing. The cupcake they gave me was incredible too. Definitely will be back to this location!

  • 5/5 Marissa P. 2 years ago on Google
    Was honestly not excited for this meal, as most hibachi-style restaurants are typically overpriced and not that great. But this place was amazing!!! Huge shoutout to our server Jack for being EXTREMELY patient with my in-laws and providing great service to us. And to chef Mitsubishi who was super funny and entertaining while making a delicious meal! Loved it! Close by lots of hotels and super convenient if you’re visiting and staying near Disney!

  • 5/5 Johnna B. 2 years ago on Google
    Our server Ari, and chef Anton were spectacular! This was my first time at an establishment like this, and they made this such a great experience. If I lived locally I would definitely come back!!
