Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"Always the best. Good service. Good food. Good portions. Must try for all."
"Amazing restaurant of whats left at the sadly dieing mall. Must be family owned due to the same staff everytime I visit. Food is cooked fresh after you order and never disappoints with flavor. Definitely recommend anyone who loves asian food. Pictured is chicken teriyaki double meat with a large drink. Total price came to $13.xx."
"Kobe Japan restaurant truly delivers an unforgettable dining experience! From the moment you step in, the welcoming ambiance and friendly staff set the stage for a fantastic meal. We opted for the hibachi, and our chef was not just a culinary artist but a true entertainer. The knife skills were mesmerizing, and the playful banter kept everyone at our table smiling. More importantly, the food was absolutely delicious. The ingredients were incredibly fresh, from the succulent scallops to the perfectly cooked steak. Each dish was seasoned to perfection, showcasing authentic Japanese flavors. The portions were generous, ensuring everyone left feeling completely satisfied. The service was impeccable throughout – attentive without being intrusive. Whether it’s a special occasion or just a desire for a lively and flavorful meal, Kobe Japan is a must-visit. We're already looking forward to our next visit! Live your best life!"
"HUGE PORTIONS! The food is really delicious at a great price. I just wish they had a few more options without teriyaki. We had the sesame chicken and the bourbon chicken."
"After reading another review, I learned this place offers Bourbon Chicken. I was so excited, as I haven't been privy to this in 30 years (last time was in Brown Deer, WI). Unlike that dangerous mall, this one was very safe & clean. There were quite a few "mall walkers" but their route was away from diners. There was significant construction outside, and a single mall roadway that wrapped around the mall (drive all the way to the back). As for the food, Kobe Japan, and the Bourbon Chicken, it was very good! I ordered extra sauce, which I realized was a mistake, because my styrofoam container was overflowing. Thankfully they offered bags. It comes with white or fried rice, but you can request pan noodles, which is how I remember this dish. They cooked the meat to order, right in front of me, thin bits of chicken, no hearty bites. Comparing this to memory, I thought the original was charcoal grilled, and this was not. So, there's a slight difference in flavor and texture. It was still satisfying and for under $10, it was enough food to feed me for days."
"incredible food. Great value for cost and prepared quick and fast, hot and fresh. Would recommend for family or personally to eat at."
"Delicious food and massive double sized portion at a good price, prepared and served fresh and hot within minutes of ordering."
"I love Kobe Japan and the people who own it. They are always so nice and It's one of my favorite places to get something quick to eat. Their shrimp tempura is amazing along with their boba drinks! I really hope they don't leave considering they are one of the only reasons I go to this mall"
