Teppanyaki tonight |
8460 Palm Parkway Orlando, FL 32836 United States +1 407 239 1119 http://www.kobesteakhouse.com/ |
Among the hundreds of Orlando's hotspots, Japanese restaurants are as numerous as stoplights. So the fact that Kobe Japanese steakhouse has been one of the city's most popular teppanyaki territories for years is a testament to its greatness. Could it be the grand location just around the corner from Lake Buena Vista? Could it be the hilarious and talented teppanyaki chefs whipping up dinner in front of your face? Or is it just the restaurant's dedication to providing its customers with the finest Japanese steakhouse experience in town? Perhaps all three! Review © 2007, Wcities |
