   We had a great experience at Kings of Kobe-it’s a hike to get to but the classic burger was great, along with the skewers and the mozzarella stick!

   The promise was good, execution ok. Online the value seemed to be much better than in person. More expensive, less offerings, and very loud. Service was attentive, friendly, and eager. Monday nights are tough, so I’ll give them a pass. Might go back, might not. Certainly an all you can eat wagyu experience worth trying once. Needs vegetables and salad included. But you can’t beat the price. Online influencer marketing way overhyped for what you get. Sauces not well executed. Heavy carbs to fill you up. That said, nice people trying to grow a business and make it in the city. I hope that make adjustments and succeed.

   Hey Chris - Thank you for your feedback. I am not sure where you feel there was confusion between what you saw online and what you actually received as we serve EXACTLY what we advertise and previously influencers mentioned - please share details if you can. As you mentioned, the deal price here is unbeatable and we have the best deal in town so there is a limit of what can include but we over great salads an veggie sides that can be ordered a a carte if someone needs any. Hope you join us again for the best steak and fries deal in town!

   We had a great time and our server Janessa was wonderful. The giant mozzarella stick was very good. The truffle fries were very good and the steak, when not overcooked, was very tender. Only issue for us was getting the steak at the right temperature. “Medium” comes out medium rare, which is perfect for me but not my husband. Tried 2nd steak as medium well in hopes that would be medium since the medium was actually medium rare and that came well done and tough for both of us but my husband ate as much as he could of it and with 2 pieces left, we got a third and asked to go back to “medium” server advised that was the first one we got and asked they cook like 30 seconds more but that came out medium well, so we ate what we could of it and called it quits. All in all, our server was still very attentive and definitely tried to get the temperature just right but without her being the one on the grill, that was a bit of a struggle. We ordered the bread pudding to go because we were stuffed but from the description, seems delicious. Would come again but unsure if we’d do the steak experience again.

   The unlimited wagyu experience was good. There were 2 adults and an 8 yr old that came last minute because of a babysitting issue. We were charged for 3 steak dinners. They said they’d adjust the amount for the 2 adults but I was charged for 3 wagyu experiences.

   An unlimited Wagyu deal that is worth the hype. The rounds came out fast, the sides were fresh and I left full for the whole day. The service was great too. Absolutely worth it!

    German was a great server! His conversation and attentiveness really shined! The food was awesome and the unlimited sides of fries and onion rings were welcomed with the tasty wagyu steak!!
