text: I kind of liked Kobe. The teppanyaki has always been great. The sushi is often hit or miss. I used to be a somewhat regular there, living through the meh sushi to get the good. What stopped me going there completely, besides discovering Sushi Eye not even a mile away, was an event that happened one Saturday. My husband and I were sitting at the bar like we always did when an off-duty waitress showed up with a puppy she had just purchased. Not only did she take the dog to the sushi bar, but stood right next to us at the end of the bar so the sushi chefs could pet her new pooch. The manager joined in on the doggy loving and then took her and the dog to the back, towards the kitchen. Granted, there was probably an office back there, but do you really want a dog in the kitchen where your food is being prepared? Granted, this happened at least a year or two ago, and I called the county health department, but I haven't been back since.
