Absolutely amazing experience! The food was incredible, fresh, and full of flavor. We’ve never had an experience quite like this before. The attention to detail was impressive, and the service was excellent from start to finish. And the cocktails were so good too! Everything was truly amazing. Highly recommend this Japanese steakhouse — we will definitely be back!

⭐⭐☆☆☆ The only reason I’m giving this place 2 stars is because the hibachi chef genuinely worked hard and put on a good show. He deserves credit for his effort. Everything else was a disappointment. We spent around $130 for two people, and I left wondering where the value was. For that kind of money, I expected a memorable meal. Instead, I got food that was overwhelmed by what seemed like an endless stream of dark soy sauce–based seasoning. Every few minutes, more of it went onto the grill. Chicken, vegetables, fried rice—it all ended up tasting almost exactly the same. The chicken was tender, but the heavy sauce completely masked the natural flavors of everything else. Instead of tasting fresh ingredients, it felt like I was eating soy sauce with a side of food. The meal sat so heavily that I was still tasting and burping that salty flavor for the rest of the evening. For this price, I’d much rather go to a Brazilian steakhouse, enjoy unlimited freshly grilled meats, a great salad bar, and leave feeling satisfied instead of weighed down by an overly salty meal. I don’t mind paying premium prices when the quality matches the bill. Unfortunately, this experience didn’t come cl

This location was the only one in Orlando who answers their phone! I appreciate their patience when we ordered a table reservation for 9 people and we showed up with 12 for my brother's birthday dinner celebration 🍾 The host ladies were friendly and informative and let us know that everyone in our group has to show up first before seating us. Once everyone found parking (paid is in front, free is in the back or by the KPot area) we were quickly sat. Food is great, Chef Torsta and Host Kisha were patient and welcoming. Manager Tony is bubbly and fun. He sung happy birthday to different tables, including ours. THANK YOU!

Had such a fun experience at Kobe Japanese Steakhouse! From the moment we sat down, the energy was great, and the service really stood out. Our chef, Panda, absolutely made the night—super entertaining, engaging, and clearly talented. The cooking show was just as good as the food itself. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, but what really made it memorable was the vibe Panda created at the table. Lots of laughs, great interaction, and an overall experience that felt special—not just another dinner out. Definitely a spot we’ll be coming back to! 🍣🔥

This was our second time coming here and we are still impressed!! Our wait time at first was 35 to 40 minutes but went through in about 10 minutes. The staff were friendly and very helpful, our chef Wee was wicked fantastic, entertaining and a bright shining star. The food was out of this world, we each had the chicken teriyaki that was soaked in flavor with each bite, the noodles were good along with the fried rice. Overall the experience was incredible and we look forward to coming back when we are in the area!
