This has been a local favorite for my family and i since moving to Vancouver and it has never dissapointed us. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We've done both the hibachi table and the booth and both were great experiences every time.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The hibachi table is always a blast as each and every single cook we've ever gotten has been as entertaining as they are outgoing and personable, i imagine the hiring process must be a rigorous one because regardless of who it is on the table, they always know exactly what they're doing on top of overflowing with charisma. Our experience in the booths when we order sushi is always pleasant as well as the waiters have always been kind and approachable. And of course the sushi is delicious too! read more

We accidentally ordered from you because we forgot that we had tried your sushi before and didn't like it. For some reason, your sushi has a slight fishy taste--and not in a good way. The rolls are made terribly; they all fall apart as soon as you try to pick them up. We're extremely disappointed. Never again. read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]They put on a great show.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I will return again. The food was good. I would add more garlic to the garlic butter. The soup was good and the drinks were fantastic. I enjoyed the food better the next day. The service was fast and polite. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's hibachi for the ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great for group dinners and celebrations.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I loved that they offer toothpicks and candy on the way out. The vegetables were the only seasoned food item so I could not give this 5 stars. I will revisit this location again. That might have just been a bad day the 10 of us experienced. The crab Rangoon is a must! read more

Waitress was ok; did forget a couple of orders. Authentic? Tempura came with sweet chili sauce for dipping!! (Thai?) No traditional tentsuyu sauce. Waitress brought gyoza sauce when asked. Overall very disappointing for an anniversary celebration. read more

Have been here three times now and have tried sitting at the big tables where they prepare food in front of you and sitting at a big booth having food delivered. Either way it's lots of fun, every bit of sushi. Every bit of hot food we've dried has been delicious And [[HIGHLIGHT]]there is a fun cotton candy machine in the lobby. That was really cool. It made flowers out of cotton candy, which we loved[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] highly recommend stopping here for lunch or dinner. They have excellent food and wonderful staff. [[HIGHLIGHT]]It's very cozy in here dark colors, and warm environment.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food and ambiance.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Worth a try. Our party had the chicken, steak, and some seafood. Everything was excellent and plenty to take home for lunch the next day. read more

We sat in a booth and did not do the show. The food was okay. I got the Hibachi Steak, Chicken and Shrimp. The beef was tough, chicken dry and only a couple shrimp. Fried rice was bland. My girlfriend got some rolls and those were much better. But the big mark was the service. We were seated and given water. We sat for 20 min before they came back. Took our drink order and our app order and main order all at that time. Drinks took another 20 min and then 40 min from when they took our order the brought everything out at once. Then we never saw our server again. We had to go up to the front desk and ask someone to close us out. I left no tip. read more

This is our second time coming to this restaurant and it was much better than the first time. The first time I was a little uncertain on how I felt that I was a little hesitant to come back, but we decided to go back for my birthday tonight and my thoughts were changed about this place. The first and this time the staff was extremely friendly and fast service when it came to the food. The first time it was a little uncertain, but this time the flavor was great and the portion sizes were phenomenal for two people. I will definitely be returning to this restaurant again and if you're looking for a great birthday location, work party or family event. [[HIGHLIGHT]]This place is definitely a spot to go would definitely recommend the restaurant is extremely clean on the inside with a bar and hibachi side.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

I love a fun hibachi meal, literally a performance with a meal. We came after catching a late movie and were the only ones but the chef still gave us an amazing performance. The food was all tasty and came in huge portions for the price. I like to wait for all my food before eating although sometimes I take a bite here and there. The filet mignon was tender and juicy. My husband shared some of his shrimp and it was tasty. Loved the fried rice. Will definitely come back. Plenty of parking here. Staff were friendly. read more

The service here is excellent as soon as we where seated the host asked if anyone had allergies before he handed us menu's, which was a first for us, since fortunately none of us have food allergies. The hibachi side is where we choose to sit. We came in to celebrate a birthday and there were 5 of us and we were seated right away. After seating we were handed menu's for both the hibachi side and the sushi side. We all ordered a hibachi entree and some sushi appetizers. Everything was cooked perfectly the scallops and seafood were tender and fresh. The vegetables nicely seasoned with the right crisp when you bite. When they learned we were their to celebrate a birthday not only did they bring out a birthday crown with flashing lights to wear while we all sung HB, they came out with a sparkling candle lit desert at the end and just made our day!! We will always remember this place when we want an entertaining meal. Thanks for making a special day even more memorable:) read more

Came here on Valentine's Day with my lover, super busy I'll add. We had a reservation, only had to wait maybe 10-15 minutes before everyone waiting was seated. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We opted out of hibachi as there were just a lot of people wanting to sit in front of the grill.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered steak from the hibachi grill even though we weren't in front of the grills! I really liked that. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambience is a classic Japanese restaurant style, it has the fish tanks, beautiful art pieces, an a sushi bar where you can sit and watch them prepare your sushi if that's what you're into![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We ordered the sushi love boat for 2 and it did not dissapoint. Simply outdid all my expectations from presentation to freshness of the sushi and sashimis. Overall a phenomenal Valentine's Day experience. Will definitely be back soon! read more

Terrible experience, not only did we have to wait 15 minutes for a few other people to join the table (even though we had enough), we paid for chicken while the other guests didn't and they were given our chicken and our rice. Staff was freaking awful!! Tried to discuss issues in front of all of the guests, leaving us feel uncomfortable and awkward. Sakura is the way to go!! read more

[[HIGHLIGHT]]A fun hibachi meal where the chef does a little performance in front of your party is always pretty fun![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I got the filet mignon and prawn combo and it was pretty good and flavorful. Very friendly chefs. The service was a bit slower as they are understaffed. But I think this is a fun spot to come to for special occasions. read more

Kyoto is fun, especially for a birthday or special occasions. Every time we've been our chef has had great energy and kept everyone entertained. The food is pretty good but not the main reason you come here in my opinion. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The ambiance is high energy and can be kind of overwhelming, especially for younger kids.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]My 1 year old got kinda spooked with the fires and all the loud noises but that's not a fault of the restaurant.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

First time I came here was for my birthday 5 years ago and the grill cook hit me in the eye with a piece of chicken. Decided to stop in again the other night because my husband was craving sushi and this was on the way home from the gym. On Thursdays, they have 50% off sushi and it was great because we were able to try different rolls for half the price. We had 4 different rolls and also had shrimp yakisoba. The yakisoba was sooo good! Lots of flavor and so delicious. The sushi we had was okay. They didn't have anything that was seared on the menu and seared salmon is my favorite. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Restaurant was okay.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] They were super busy so we had to wait while to be seated but the food didn't take too long to arrive after we ordered. Staff was nice. Will probably try this place again for the hibachi grill or to try their other rolls. I also had 2 cocktails but they were a little too sweet to what I normally prefer. Total for our entire meal (shrimp yakisoba, 4 different sushi rolls, 2 cocktails) was about $70 before tip. Great deal! read more

My family and I attempted to revisit this restaurant today, 02/19/2025, for my son Matthew's 12th birthday, as we have done for the past few years. Every time we dine here for birthday parties and other celebrations, we inform the staff about a known mushroom allergy, and it has never been an issue--until today. This time, we were refused service because they refused to accommodate our food allergy. A young staff member turned away our party of 10, effectively ending a business relationship that has lasted since before 2016. Given this experience, we will likely never return and will be sure to share our disappointment. read more

The first time we ate there it was a great meal. The second time sucked. About 2 months later we figured it might have been the cook so we decided to try again and maybe it would be different. Yes it was different it was really bad. It was so bad our animals wouldn't eat it. Order them again? Probably not rating. Ffffff++++++. That's a very big F+ read more

Great service, delicious food. We started with several appetizers and then ordered the the party boat of sushi. Great for the group that doesn't want to decide what to order. read more

2 years ago we tried the hibachi side and it was good. Fast forward to a couple weeks ago and the food was way too salty, especially the fried rice. Chef didnt add salt, so it might have come from the prepared butter pad or something. My friend said the same thing. I have been to many hibachi restaurants and this one has gotten worse over time. Its busy, all tables were full so might have been a one time experience. read more

We had such a fun and delicious experience celebrating a Birthday at Kyoto's. Very generous portions and wonderful service. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Kid friendly and festive![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Have sat at a table with my grandchildren, around the hibachi grill for the show and most recently at the sushi bar. Great experience at all three locations! [[HIGHLIGHT]]Great food, employees, service and atmosphere![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Highly recommend this place whether you're a sushi lover or not! read more

Great show, food was spectacular. Service was excellent, [[HIGHLIGHT]]the atmosphere was perfect[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]].

It's no Benihana's but I'll take it. Found a nice little Groupon, and I had Groupon bucks from a previous purchase. Came with the hubby and baby yday and it was awesome. The purpose of a Groupon is to use it once, the business loses money, I've had a business before and I know a user when I see one, the couple across from ya wanted to make sure we saw the Groupon, they stated they use one all the time.... It was weird, I really didn't wanna talk to them and we were the only ones in the entire restaurant! Awkward!!!! It's ok we ordered the fried rice, it needed a title flavor but it was good for 4.50 My Kyoto special was great! A few pieces of shrimp, steak and chicken yummm Soup and small salad. My hubby ordered the filet mignon, I would go that fancy at this place, I'd stick to the fish, chicken and non mignon lol. The cook was super funny and we had an awesome time. Support this place they deserve it. The salmon roll was decent. Not bad at all. Overall bill with the Groupon was $35. Leave tip on the entire bill too! read more

We go here here or four times a year. My wife is Japanese and my son is a steak lover. The teppan prices are fair, and the sushi is good. Always good there. However, this last trip, was a bummer. Not because of the food but because the place is starting to get run down. They need to clean it, clean the menus, and clean the floors and carpet. Our chairs were pretty worn and ripped, and the floors were so greasy that they were slippery. No joke. We actually decided to leave because it was kinda gross. Cmon Kyoto. We miss you!! read more

After coming here quite a few times - it's time I give my solid review. This place is a hidden gem. The staff always remembers us and I swarm and inviting -the manager is fantastic - always brings a smile to my face! This place is clutch' for lunch. $12 for a steak and shrimp hibachi meal with a soup or salad - fried rice, and veggies? This is probably the best deal for good food I've ever seen! They do lunch deals Monday - Saturday. The Pretty Alaska Roll ( we do no cucumber ) , Black Dragon & the Super Crunch Roll are two of the best rolls I've ever had! Extremely fresh and flavorful! The Yum Yum sauce is the best dipping sauce known to man- period! We've brought so many family and friends over the last year - that love this place as much as us! We are here sometimes once a week, and always leave satisfied. This is our place' read more

It's hard to go wrong with any Japanese steakhouse, as long as they are providing high-quality meats and veggies. No complaints here. As far as prices and selection goes, Kyoto manages to compete with the bigger names like Benihana and Fuji's. They have some fun sake mixed cocktails like Ichigo (strawberry) and Saiko (watermelon). Absent is the choice of Wagyu or Mishima beef, which are some of the premium quality cuts from Japan, but those are pretty hard to come by anywhere. Other than a faulty hibachi at the table next to us, everyone in the restaurant seemed to be thoroughly enjoying their meal. We sure did! I had the steak and chicken, while my wife had the lobster and chicken. My only gripes are that the Miso soup was a bit watery for my taste, and the dressing on the salad is certainly non-traditional: it tasted a bit more like Thousand Island then the ginger dressing I'm used to at other, similar establishments. I will say that their aesthetic is on point, and I love coming here for a company lunch or a casual dinner with my wife. In Vancouver, there are no superior Japanese steakhouses, Kyoto is the only choice for the discerning beefeater. read more

Went here on a random weekday, it lived up to reviews I order the beef & broccoli. To say the least it was by far best I've had, sweet burnt taste from steak if ever in the area with family have to stop by again. I appreciate the hospitality! read more

So if you're bored and want to just sit around people watching then this is your place! Because if you're hungry then don't come here! All you'll do here is wait and wait and wait until your stomach acids come up and you swallow them back down, just so you feel like you're eating! Waited at the table over an hour, messed up the order and brought us the appetizers AFTER the food was eaten!!! There's was 4 little boys who waited for chicken nuggets even longer then us! The parents food was already done, eaten as they still waited for the kids meals! Unbelievable! Oh and yes we got so many sorry's that ended with excuses and when I suggested they give the kids meals a discount the manager disappeared! This is a NEVER AGAIN spot! read more

We had just walked in at the start of what seemed to be the dinner rush and we did have to wait a few minutes but nothing to extreme. We were seated at the dine in area since we did not want to sit in the hibachi area. Jacqueline was our server and she was absolutely amazing. She was so sweet and polite and even tho it was so busy that didn't stop her from tending to multiple people and being quick as can be. It seems they were short staffed today and Jacquline was busting through it all and was working so hard. The food was really great however the five stars is specifically for Jacquline and her outstanding service (: read more

Worst food ever. On the planet. Slow as hell and not enough staff. Server sweating all over the place and wiping face with bare hands. We ordered off the menu in seated area. Expensive. Over-priced. And Small portions. No one bussing tables. G_d awful. Hibachi tabkes very busy. read more

I had the Chicken and shrimp teppanyaki grill. It was excellent. Of course, the entertainment is great as the chef cooks your food. Service was wonderful. I would say the price rating on Yelp is low though. My dinner was $35 and was one of the lower priced options. I'd say $$$$ read more

Great food and the hibachi experience was well worth the trip, we were there for a birthday and they do birthdays right

First time here with my daughter who frequently dines here. I was immediately impressed with the interior decorating- outside it's a stripe mall appearance. Our server was attentive and our meal came quickly. The presentation was really beautiful. The ingredients for the sushi were incredibly fresh. We had several items and each one was delicious! I'm so happy my daughter introduced me to your establishment and next time visiting from Arizona- I will make it a point to dine with you again!! read more

We have lived near this steakhouse since bought out house 5 years ago. We never had the opportunity to try this restaurant until recently. I decided to go with the hibachi chicken and filet mignon while my husband went with the sushi. We started with the pork shumai which was NOT good. My husband said it was the worst dish of any kind he'd ever had before. Thankfully, the rest of the meal was great! We were pleased with the pricing and the large amount of drinks and food options. I loved my onion soup that came with the meal and the salad was yummy too. The hibachi chef was funny and entertaining and put on a great show. I still have chicken and steak with rice for the next deal meal too, My husband thought the sushi was all excellent too. We'll definitely be back! read more

First time trying out this place. Went there to celebrate a birthday tonight. I had the bento box dinner beef negimake. It came with shrimp shumai, white rice, tempura assortment , imitation crab makizushi, miso soup, and a salad. Sad to say that the salad was the best part of the dinner. I got my tempura and the server said my entree was going to be delayed and they are redoing it. I was cool with that. So I dug in to the tempura, it had no seasoning, totally bland, but it had a little crunch to it. The miso soup had three tiny pieces of tofu, some kombu, lots of salt, very little miso. Finally the dinner bento arrived, I'm guessing the plate sat under a heat lamp or somewhere hot. The rice was dried out, the exterior of the shumai was a bit dry. The imitation crab makizushi was lacking flavor, the rice a little hard. As for the beef negimake, no seasoning and dry/over cooked, the onion over powered the beef. Two other people tasted it and agreed with me. Anyways, the birthday boy got some ice cream, a birthday song . Next we'll choose another place to celebrate read more
