Kobé Japanese Steakhouse Tampa

Food was really good. I could have had bowls and bowls of their soup. I ordered the steak and shrimp. It was so tasty. Great flavors. And of course the reason for most people going is the chef entertainment. Our guy was super funny and cooked my food to perfection. I'm really picky about my steak and he did it perfectly.

Had an amazing time! The food and ambience was outstanding!!! The host Eric greeted us as soon as we entered. We had reservations and were seated quickly. Kobe 's steakhouse has been on my bucket list for a long time and when I say they did not disappoint! The service was great from start to finish. Our waitress Amara was very attentive and helpful with menu selections. Chef Tony was funny and friendly and the food was amazing. He did everything to make sure the entire table was satisfied. I selected this drink called the scorpion and it was so good. It is a two person drink but it was to good to share. We will definitely be returning and bringing along the rest of the family!

We do lots of Hibachi and this was by far the best we've ever had! Everything was delicious. Table side soup and salad service was unique and nice. Was extremely impressed!

I was taken here as a surprise for my birthday, and let me tell you, Kobe never misses. Chef Andy prepared our exquisite meals in getting off us with some fun and a light hearted show, even a little magic trick with an egg! Our server was Michael, who was very professional and kind, able to quickly take our order and answer questions others at our hibachi table had (not in our party). They had very attentive staff, refilling waters and beverages without delay. The entire dining room seemed very clean and well kept, even at other hibachi tables almost immediately after everyone had left it. The hood above ours (and others from what I could tell) was very well cleaned and nicely kept (the easiest to overlook in a hibachi restaurant), and the stove top was cleaned and scraped between every different dish (quite efficiently at that) in front of us by our chef. I had the steak and shrimp combo, and both were very well seasoned and cooked exactly as requested. The rice made for everyone before the dishes was extremely good and I couldn 't help but finish all of it before I was able to get anything else on my plate. The noodles were decent, though I prefer more garlic, everyone else seemed to love them just the same. At our table, another group ordered Waygu steak and it was cooked first for a very pleasantly assembled platter, and they kept saying how it was perfectly cooked and that it melts in your mouth like butter! We enjoyed the time we had there and although there is another Kobe location closer to where we live, we will be returning here!

Everything about the experience was delightful and the food was amazing. Some of the best hibachi I've had. Quality ingredients and a staff that takes pride in food and service. I will return and highly recommend if you're craving hibachi.
