On May 3rd, my family visited the restaurant "Kebuto" in Parkville. The food was wonderful--the…read morechef is truly an artist. The service, however, was abysmal. Our waitress, named Lala, served us with a completely blank expression and, furthermore, failed to mention the full range of beverages available. Later--when we noticed that patrons at other tables were being offered alcoholic drinks--we asked her why we hadn't been offered any alcohol; she replied that she simply assumed we didn't want any. The only thing she did during our entire visit was silently refill our Pepsi glasses. My family does not believe that this waitress deserves any tip whatsoever for the service she provided us.

I also purchased the 3 roll lunch special - each maki roll comes with 8 pieces, which I always like. The rice wasn't my favorite cook, I think a little crumbly. The avocado included was fresh. I think the salmon wasn't the freshest tasting but certainly not bad. I enjoyed the eel avocado roll the most. I prefer California rolls with kani salad instead of crab stick. The owner/cashier was very nice and offered to re-bag my food into one bag. The paper bag was custom to the restaurant and of nice quality. The interior was nice for dining in, though a little warm given the temperature outside. It was nice of them to include a lot of yum-yum sauce on the side - good for hibachi dishes. Spicy mayo would be better for sushi in my opinion. I'd like to come back to try their hibachi items.

I can't complain too much because the price was reasonable. The noodle was horrible. I knew the noodles were no good the moment I saw the cook place them in the platter. The noodles were bland and over cooked. Customer service was great, the guy taking my order was very friendly. I may be back to give this place another shot but I would order the noodles again.

After reading the reviews, we had to try them again. We were here before I began writing for Yelp,…read moreabout 4 years ago. Walking in, we saw a huge, clear plastic barrier side to side and most of the way to the ceiling, and i wondered why. It looks awful and is off-putting, which is what restaurants do not want. You order through a small gap in the plastic. I ordered the Japanese chicken noodle soup, and it arrived piping hot. After it cooled a bit, i tried the broth and IMO it lacked flavor. The chicken breast in it was very tender, and the baby boy Choi did not really seem to complement the soup. Also, I ordered a shrimp egg roll, yup, you guessed, right. It was all cabbage and 1 shrimp, only 1 of the tiniest shrimp I've ever seen and very greasy. It was disappointing. My husband ordered the shrimp and chicken on fried rice ( the man working there said this is their most popular dish). What arrived was only shrimp on the fried rice and no chicken. It was ok, a bit on the sweet side. Generous serving. Generally speaking, the menu is limited, and that is good when you can expect what they do being done well. I would much rather have it that way instead of a restaurant that has lots and lots, meaning quality vs. quantity. In this visit, the quality was off for my portion of the meal. Prices are reasonable for what you order. Service was really good and accommodating. They were very friendly.

Servers are good with clearing your old plates and one even helped me open a rambutan fruit! Some seafood is great and some is poor quality- it would probably take a couple visits to figure out the items that are worth getting. The restaurant's ambiance is very hustle and bustle and a little overwhelming because of all the people constantly going back for more but thats something you expect when going to a buffet. I did witness a man threatening to assault a worker there who didnt speak English because he accidentally hit him with a cart. I also saw a young child have his hand in the jello dessert without an adult. We did enjoy the coconut shrimp, beef, crab rangoons, kimchi, sushi, banana pudding, Asian chicken dishes, noodle bar.

The only reason this isnt 1 star review is because the food was ok. We were visiting on a weekend at 12:30. We weren't at a hibachi table. My husband asked for a gin and tonic. But there is no tonic water and our server couldn't offer any alternatives. Their beers were all flavorless pilsners or light beers. The plates are an interesting mix of heavy and large or flimsy and plastic. It made the meal strangely awkward. The food arrived and my husband asked for normal sodium soy sauce. We were told that all the green soy sauce bottles are filled with normal soy sauce. So they are either lying to us about everything being normal. Or they're lying to everyone else and refilling bottles that say low sodium with normal soy sauce. The server was below average and didn't clear anything from the awkward table. She was trying but was just not very good. There is a mandatory 18% gratuity that I asked to change given the service. I wouldn't normally punish a server for the restaurant's short comings but she was bad at her job. I was told their payment system couldn't do this. I asked to speak to a manager. No one would be in until 5pm. I am so glad I don't live near this place and have other options for Japanese food. I don't ever need to go back. This is my first review because I've never had a such a bad experience.

The sautéed vegetables still had a little crunch and were coated in a light, savory sauce. Portions were generous and everything looked and tasted like it was made with care. I'd definitely order this combo again. Price was only $16 each!
