Reviews For Kobe Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi Bar

Sushi date night! No complaints We were seated pretty quickly, ordered the love boat and left full and happy! Everything seems pretty average priced if comparing to other sushi places. The sushi was fresh and delish!!! Seating is pretty snug here, so it doesn't give much of a cozy vibe if you're looking for that.

First time having Hibachi. Went here for our anniversary. Only one other couple across from us and they spent the whole time on their phone haha. The food was delicious and we really enjoyed watching it get cooked. The chef was very skilled. Only complaint is he was done too fast! I thought dinner would last longer but we were done eating in 45min. We both got chicken hibachi and were very satisfied with the quality and price.

Second time here. This place is my favorite Hibachi in ROC. The chefs are so much fun and everyone engaged the whole time they are cooking. The food is fantastic, giving you a little extra every time. I strongly suggest making a reservation as they fill up fast. I like consistency and Kobe has it!

Honest review, this place was really great. We celebrated five years with my fiance and it was great, some food and a little bit of fire. Definitely will come back again!

One of the best places in Rochester in general. Roger and his staff are amazing. I have brought dozens of new people here. We go every year for new years with a big group of friends, I bring colleagues here and even the general date night with my Fiance. Never had a bad experience and always have a great time.

My first hibachi experience. I liked the food, (cook?) did well. Felt weird sitting in a way that allowed us to be looking directly at another party, but wasn't an issue.

Wow! This small, family-owned hibachi restaurant is a hidden gem. The chef was clearly passionate and talented, putting on a fantastic show while preparing our meal right in front of us. The food was absolutely delectable - the flavors were a perfect blend of spices and sauces, and the ingredients were fresh and well-prepared. The service was exceptional, with our waiter going above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. The best part? The owners of the restaurant are so warm and friendly, it really feels like you’re having dinner at their home. Overall, a truly unforgettable experience! Not only was the hibachi chef and staff amazing, but their sushi was to die for! The freshness and quality of the ingredients were top-notch, and the sushi rolls were expertly crafted. Even if you’re not a fan of hibachi, the sushi alone is worth the visit to this great restaurant. Can’t wait to come back soon!
