My wife and I went to this place on a Friday night because they had a live reggae band in the lounge and they had vegetarian options for her. The ambience in the lounge was nice. Mellow, relaxed and the band was really good (Upstream - from Trinidad look them up at upstreammusic.com, I recommend them). The service was excellent... more

The interior of the building is nice, the outside is dumpy, the service is poor (they only have about 30 people standing around doing nothing...go figure), the food didn't even match the low standards of a McDonalds.

Kobe Japanese Steakhouse looks nice. The bar and fish tank are a nice touch as are the etched glass between the bar and sushi areas. BUT, the food was terrible and the service worse.
