I treated myself to a lovely dinner at Kobe’s Japanese Steakhouse in Orlando while on a business trip. The ambiance was lovely, the food and cocktails are superb & the service at the bar was so great that I came back there three times during my stay in Florida. If and when I visit Orlando again I will definitely be back. What an amazing experience.

Our server Luu was extremely welcoming and knowledgeable about the menu. He answered all our questions. The menu has something for everybody, and everything was flawlessly prepared. We didn't do hibachi this time but ordered from the menu. My daughter had the salmon, i had the eel sushi roll and the spider crab sushi roll. My boyfriend went all out and ordered the a5 wagyu with lobster. Our son had the kids chicken and even his serving was huge! We all very much enjoyed our meals and had plenty to bring home. The drinks were also well done, we had a scorpion bowl for two. Overall this was a terrific experience and my family and I will definitely return when in the area!

This is THE BEST hibachi you can get in town! My server Jimmy was awesome and knew everything about the menu and what to recommend for us! We ordered a couple of Smokey Old Fashions, a Coconut Breeze, a Krabby Shrimp Roll and Grilled Lobster Roll as well as three 18oz Ribeye Entrees. Bartender Rene made our beautifully presented and tasty drinks! Chef Melvin was hilarious and entertaining and showcased his cooking skills by perfectly cooking everything on the grill. At the end of the meal managers Karen and Brandon checked on us to make sure everything was good. The portions are MASSIVE, the white sauce is to DIE for, the food was DELICIOUS and the service was FANTASTIC. 5/5 everything would absolutely come back again to try more stuff!

My family ordered delivery from this location which we have done before but also used Uber Eats. Definitely not recommended. If they use Door Dash that’s a better option. The food quality was hit or miss. We were also missing 2 boba teas and a sushi roll from our order. Uber eats refused to give us a refund stating that we received everything ordered. This is also not traditional Japanese food, it’s more of a commercialized fusion. It’s still good overall but definitely better to order takeout on the weekdays as quality seems to be better and there are less issues.

Our dinner at Kobe Japanese Steakhouse on International Drive, Orlando, was absolutely amazing! Everything exceeded our expectations, from the food to the service. Food: The combination of steak, chicken, and scallops was a true feast! Each dish was perfectly cooked and bursting with flavor. The steak was incredibly tender and juicy, the chicken was cooked to perfection, and the scallops literally melted in our mouths. The chef’s preparation was not only impressive but also highly entertaining. Service: The staff was exceptionally kind and attentive. Our orders arrived promptly, and we felt well taken care of throughout the entire experience. Ambiance: Kobe offers a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere, especially at the hibachi table, where the dining experience is both delicious and entertaining. For anyone looking for a fantastic dinner in Orlando with great food and a fun experience, Kobe Japanese Steakhouse is a must-visit! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
