text: Kobe just barely deserves three stars and here is why The food is a wild mix of I have had much better at Shogun Express to Wow This is really tasty The service was another mixed bag Our server was not on the ball but some of the others covered for him I am not sure exactly how long they have been open so the service may improve Overall I feel comfortable saying that you do not get what you pay fornnLast night my wife and I met a friend at Kobe for dinner We started off with an order of Gyoza it was served warmish I almost sent it back to be heated up but had a feeling they would just throw it in the microwave The flavor was good but nothing special nnOur Gyoza was followed by Ginger salads and Miso soup As our friend said Miso soup is tough to mess up It happens but not often Luckily Kobes was just fine As was the salad which consisted of iceberg lettuce a cherry tomato a couple strands of carrot and the only thing capable of saving such a pathetic salad some yummy ginger dressingnnThe ladies ordered sushi and both really enjoyed their rolls As I am not a sushi eater I know I know shoot me now I cannot really comment on the quality other than the girls reactions and comments which were mostly if not completely positive nnI on the other hand ordered a cucumber roll and the teriyaki chicken and steak combo A cucumber roll is another one of those really difficult things to screw up There is was just fine The teriyaki dish was the worst teriyaki chickensteak I have had in recent memory The meat was a dry and the rice was either over cooked or had been sitting out too long like the GyozannFor desert we ordered a mango sorbe and a vanilla tempura read fried ice cream Neither were anything to write home about but neither were bad either which is exactly how I would characterize the restaurant Although I did not try the entire menu my recommendation is that you stick to sushi and miso soup
