    • Order the chicken, shrimp, or lobster; they're wonderful!
    • Probably the best Japanese steakhouse experience I've had in a long time. Certainly beats out the genre-creating Benihana. Food quality is high and the service is outstanding. Nice sushi selection as well.

    • It's hard to bring kids to a hibachi restaurant (3/4 kids today ordered chicken tenders and fries...). However it is not hard here. The chef kept the kids engaged even though they were just eating fries and our waitress wrote their names in japanese on their cups. Chefs here talk to us a lot more and keep us more entertained than any other hibachi restaurant in the area. Highly recommended for families.
    • Lunch specials are great. Came here 20+ years ago and still love it!. GINGER DRESSING
    • We visited Kabutos last night for my grandparents 56th wedding anniversary and my step fathers birthday and we had the most wonderful time! The server, Jordan, was so nice and very quick to help with what we needed. The chef was also very awesome and did EVERY trick in the book and kept us laughing our whole dinner. At the end of the meal we took a group photo and on our way out, was presented with not one, but TWO copies of our photos in cards.THANK YOU, Kabuto for such a wonderful experience.

    • Wow, best service I've ever had! Drinks were never ONCE left unfilled! The sushi was super delicious for the price (some rolls are misses, but the more expensive ones are very usually GREAT). Order the chicken, shrimp, or lobster; they're wonderful!. If you get any steak or mignon, make sure to repeat your "doneness" preference right before the chef cooks it (large audiences mean sometimes forgetful chefs).
