Reviews for Kyoto Japanese Steakhouse in Harrisonburg, VA
Went here last year and it was great, however this year it was a great disappointment. 1st, the fried rice was so sweet because... the cook placed so much sauce on it that it had to be re cooked. Then last year we had noodles with the meal not this year, weasked for noodles and were charged $14.85 more.! the quality that use to be here is gone! Read more
The food was amazing! I ordered take out, but I can't wait to eat in.
Our server was excellent and that's about the only good thing about our experience. Our sushi was good, but drenched in spicy... mayo (no indication that it was spicy on the menu). The man behind the sushi bar (owner/manager) was berating the staff loudlyin the middle of everyone the entire time. Read more
The food was good, but one thing that made me not like this place all the way was that there was 2 flies/bugs in my soy sauce... cup. Which makes me skeptical and wonder how clean it actually is in the back room.... I ended up not eating that soy sauce foras long as I was there. Read more
The Chef, Isaac, was, in the words of the little boy sitting at the table with us, "Phenomenal". The whole meal experience felt... like a show, the good kind! We enjoyed laughs and interactions with the chef and the lovely family we had the pleasure to dinewith. If I could give more than 5 stars I would. The food was overall good. The broth they give was DELICIOUS. The wholeexperience was for sure one of my best hibachi experience if not my very best tbh. Read more
Watch your receipt!! Only five in our party, nothing posted on web site, menu or the store, but they added a "surcharge" of... almost $30.00 to our ticket. Waiter said it was to make sure the wait staff and cook got a decent tip since they split tips. So,that's what they received. Based on a good experience, which we had I would normally tip 20%. Based on our ticket, the surchargeshorted them about $10. Oh well, their choice. Kinda sneaky though. I think they are hoping that you don't notice the surchargeAND tip normally... Read more
We are 2 seniors who were seated w/7 members of one delightful family.The 2 small boys were very well behaved and laughed at our... Chef's, the Owner's, antics along w/the rest of the table. The family has been coming here for 20yrs! Some items are donedifferently from other hibachi places but my filet mignon and my husband's scallops were EXCELLENT. Very efficiently run andclean. Yes, we'll go back again! Makes my mouth water just thinking about Kyoto! That perfectly cooked filet mignon knocked mysocks off! So much better than any other steak chain restaurants! Read more
Disappointed at the end. The PERFECT place to celebrate a birthday! I brought my sister here for her birthday and we sat with... another group who was ALSO celebrating a birthday and the chef was amazing, the waitress was amazing! Everything was PERFECTuntil the end. We got our check and my sister and I had gratuity added to our check. Being in food service ourselves for 30years, we tend to tip 35 even 40 percent after amazing service, which this experience warranted. After seeing our checks, Iasked the waitress why gratuity was added when we are a party of two and she stated that waitstaff have to share their tips withchefs. If this is a THING, let it be known up front. $1.50 extra for fried rice. $3.00 for a soda and $18.95 for Chicken Hibachiand I was surprised to get my check and it was $37! With taxes, and gratuity. Though we had a great evening, we left Kyotofeeling FLAT. SUPER DISAPPOINTED. Read more
