| - Of all the hibachi shows that I've been to, this one was probably the best and worth the price of admission.
First, the value for money -- the price is higher than other places I've been to, but the quantity of food is by far the most I've had at a hibachi. The portions are equivalent to 2 meals at other similar restaurants.
Secondly, the show and service was exceptional. While not a Japanese native -- how often do you ever get a Japanese native at one of these places? -- our teppan chef was skilled, entertaining, and mindful of the quality of the food. I was impressed with the fact that he checked for food allergies -- a first for me at one of these places.
Third the menu was considerably larger in terms of options than other similar teppan restaurants. I think they offered more combos than any similar restaurant, and the sushi menu appeared to be rather complete as well -- not just the regular rolls that you expect when sushi isn't the focus of the establishment.
Finally, my visit was for a family member's birthday. The staff went out of their way to get us seated the way we wanted and to keep everything moving along in terms of service. I think we were at the restaurant for almost 2 hours enjoying the show, the food, and the mini-birthday celebration after the meal.
A perfect way to spend a very special occasion, I would highly recommend Kobe Hero to anyone in the Cornelius and surrounding area.
