Best places: Cafes in Kobe, Japan

👍👍 This wasn't just a meal, it was an experience. The chef was absolutely hilarious and kept us entertained throughout the meal. The Kobe beef literally melts in your mouth. Appetizers were also delicious. Even the rice tasted special. Great meal all around. Oh, the chef complaints he's single and is...

👍👍 Absolutely the best Kobe beef I've ever had! High recommend this restaurant! We had the filet and sirloin from a champion Kobe cow, and it was well worth the money. They even gave us birth certificate with lineage and credentials. What a one of a kind experience. The meat melts in your mouth and is...

👍👍 A great choice if you want to get the real experience 🙂 I decided to go for the best as I don't expect to get to Kobe anytime soon. So I ordered the dinner menu along with the best A5 Kobe sirloin steak. (I picked sirloin over tenderloin because I prefer more of the buttery fatty parts). The presen...

👍👍 Welcoming staff and chef. Waited about 20 min for a seat with no reservation. Had the Kobe tenderloin and it was fantastic. Helpful suggestions about which sauce to dip, and the meal was paired with high quality seasonal sides. Expensive, but that’s to be expected

Big botanical garden with themed areas growing many flowers & herbs, plus restaurants & a gift shop.

👍 Excellent kobe beef experience. Friendly chef, attentive waiters, and kobe beef. What more can you ask for? Just sit back, eat, and let the beef melt in your mouth while you ponder about your health.

😐 It was delicious, clean and nice. The meat is ranked from thigh to marbling, and some customers were surprised at the amount of money they didn't expect when they saw the amount on the signboard, ranging from 2,500 yen to 70,000 yen. The meat is expensive and the cost performance is not good. It's...

👍👍 Absolutely superb. The chefs speak English and advise what to order based on your preference and budget. They encourage videos/photos to make the meal a real experience. Kobe beef is delicious but the staff make the meal coke alive. This restaurant is not as pricey as others and the steak is top qu...

👍👍 So, came here because of a recommendation from an online article for Kobe beef. What you need to know is this: from the owner himself, and spoken humbly, 1. Beef is Tajima beef, and this particular beef is from cows that aren't mixed with Scottish cows, chef's words. 2. Next, other A5 beef can clai...

👍👍 Amazing experience ! We went there on a Monday night and were by ourselves in the restaurant so it’s a bit intimidating at first but I’m glad we decided to go at Genkichi because we had a blast! The meat is amazingly tasty and juicy and soft and the sides are organic, well prepared and very fresh. W...

Serene hot spring inn with a refined restaurant & a piano bar, plus open-air bathing & a garden.

Seattle-based coffeehouse chain known for its signature roasts, light bites and WiFi availability.

👍👍 What an amazing spot, the sound is incredible and the owner is playing great record after great record! Also everybody working there is very kind! If I’d live in Kobe I’d go everyday! :)

😠 There were 2 chefs serving us. The first one was quite good. He tepanyaki'd the prawns so good. All of a sudden, the first chef was asked to go away by the second chef. The second young chef did not follow through the procedures as we could see on other tables. This chef just cut the precious Kobe b...

👍👍 Located next to meriken park, my daughter enjoyed running around while I had my drink. Nice and clean, restroom provided.

👍👍 Excellent place to try your first Kobe beef. If you are going with another friend, they recommended you to try two cuts of beef with different texture. We ordered the kobe beef sirloin and also the kobe beef fillet. The fillet melts in your mouth while the sirloin is soft and rich in flavour. They a...

Cozy steakhouse serving multi-course meals with Kobe beef in a rustic, unassuming atmosphere.

👍👍 This was such a fancy branch of this cafe chain. The menu is even made with solid wood which is cool. At this branch I was able to try the ice coffee that comes in an ice block that is only available in July and August at this specific branch. It was really cool as it takes about 20 minutes to get a...

👍👍 The chef is very nice and they can speak english. You need to make a reservation before you go here otherwise they will reject you if the restaurant is already full booked. I take the set meal for lunch and I dont expect that I will get full but I was wrong I'm so full and satisfied. This is one of...

👍👍 The cheeseburger was delicious with the bun being toasted to perfection. I also had a pie, Salted Caramel Pumpkin, which was very delicious with a hot coffee. The total cost came to over ¥2000. This place is not cheap, but the quality of the food is top notch. The service is also friendly.
