Even though I went there with a group of my gal pals, I couldn't help thinking that Kobe is a great place for first dates. Or a large group of at least eight...it gets awkward sitting with perfect strangers. Four of our eight were no shows, so we ended up sharing. And they won't seat you until your entire party is present either. Anyway, the place is entertaining and quaint at the same time. While I may not be running back soon, it's a definite spot to check off your dining-out experience list. The food and drinks were done well but not enough for my taste buds to scream senselessly about.
