Kobe Jones Teppanyaki - The Rocks

A friend and I bought two Niigata 9-course teppanyaki feast Groupon offers and used them for lunch. What a fantastic deal at $69 each (value $165).There was only one other couple at the teppanyaki table with us so it was almost a private lunch experience. Starting with warm gold leaf sake and ending with honey and vanilla crepe the fabulous dishes just kept arriving. Not going to mention all the dishes here (you really need to go to try them all!) but my favourite was the “Flaming Number One Special” whilst my friend’s was the “Lobster Saikyo-Yaki). Sitting at a teppanyaki table is a great experience and our chef was lovely and it was so interesting the see the ingredients transforming before us into exquisitely cooked and presented dishes. Sometimes a degustation meal leaves you still feeling hungry at the end but not this one; we were determined to finish our crepes .. and did .. but needed a lovely walk after all the food. Final touch was the chef writing and upside down (to him!) “Thank you” on the cooled plate in salt/sugar?. We accompanied our lunch with a couple of glasses of a NV Bouchard Aine Burgundy, (a French rose wine).Highly recommended and will definitely be returning.

I visited here on a Groupon voucher so it was very good value. I strongly suggest you look for one before dining here. Food is excellent and plentiful. Oishi!

We dined in this place with few people and none of us were impressed. Both by food quality and the service. Also fume was a big issue for us as it seemed to me that ventilation was not effective for this type of restaurants. I have been to other teppenyaki places and know what a good teppenyaki restaurant is. This one for sure will not see me again. In addition to this, price is not matching what they offer.

Meal .. amazing.. always amazing. Food and the chefs extraordinaire are, from my perspective, very good.The atmosphere is usually enhanced by the brilliance of the company and we always manage to meet interesting fun people. :) One of the best parts of the Rocks Kobe Teppanyaki experience is meeting new friends around amazing food. :)

Stayed next door in the Shangri-La Hotel and went to dinner on a Sunday night. We had 7 courses cooked by a chef. Too much food (could not eat all the rice). Lots of seafood and everything was delicious. Would go back.
