We ordered the Koen Sapporo and Koen Kirin sets, then added the Crown Ribeye to share. Both meals came with miso soup, salad, rice, and a variety of meats, so it was a great way to sample a little bit of everything but not go for the full premium set. The miso soup was a great way to start the meal. It was warm, comforting, though it cooled down pretty quickly, so I'd recommend finishing it before you get distracted by the grill. The house salad came with a carrot ginger dressing that I really enjoyed. It was fresh and flavorful, but surprisingly sweet. I loved the taste, though by the end of the small bowl it became a little sweet for me. One fun surprise was the beef gyoza. I'm much more accustomed to chicken gyoza, so it was nice to try something different. As for the grill, the Toro Beef was the standout. We piled it over our rice and ended up with a delicious little donburi bowl that was easily my favorite bite of the night. The Top Sirloin, Chicken Bulgogi, and Yaki-Shabu Beef were all enjoyable as well. The only downside was that the Spicy Pork Belly and the Crown Ribeye were a bit difficult to eat without knives. We managed, but those thicker cuts would have been much easier to enjoy if we could have cut them into smaller bites. We did have meat scissors but it was a little uncomfortable sharing. I also ordered the salmon nigiri, and I was pleasantly surprised. I'd put it right up there with Blue Sushi in terms of quality. The slices of salmon were incredibly generous, actually larger than the rice, which wasn't quite my preferred balance, but I'd much rather have too much fish than too little. Since I was the only one ordering sushi, our table didn't have chopsticks or soy sauce dishes, though we also never thought to ask for them either. To drink, I had the red sangria, and it was packed with fresh fruit, which I absolutely loved. I ended up ordering a second because it was so refreshing. They're definitely more of a flavorful, easy-drinking sangria than a particularly strong cocktail, but that's exactly what I was in the mood for. Our server did an excellent job. They explained how everything worked, checked on us frequently without hovering, and made the experience feel approachable for first-time diners. Overall, Koen is somewhere I'd happily return. The grill is half the fun, the Toro Beef alone is worth ordering again, and the service made the experience even better. If it's your first visit, my biggest tips are to enjoy your soup before it cools, don't skip the Toro Beef over rice, and if you're ordering thicker cuts like the ribeye, don't be shy about asking for a knife.

The food was fine. The egg soufflé tasted like cigarettes to me but my husband said it was fine…read more The meat was also marinated in sauces I didn't like that were sweet. I'd prefer if it was just plain. But I do think it said on the menu they would be marinated. The kimchi is way spicier than any other kimchi I've had. Most of the banchan was spicier than I'm used to. The chocolate-martini drink was so yummy. It just tasted like chocolate milk. You have to walk up two flights of stairs to get to the entrance to the restaurant, and it's right above a dispensary, so it smelled a bit like weed at the entrance. Our server was great. The seating host did give us a classic gen-z stare and he didn't move his arms when he walked. Just a fun fact. It didn't affect our meal or experience. If anything it gave us something to giggle about. Overall an ok experience. Minus the cigarette taste, but I think that's just a me problem. Edit: nvm, not just me. My husband said after thinking about it for a few days the taste of the cigarette eggs still lingers in his mouth and he hated it too.

My partner and I walked in looking forward to everything, once we had been sat down by the hostess we were ignored by our waitress Cheyenne. She didn't greet us for almost 10 minutes and our hostess even got us our waters and apologized for the time she had been taking so long. Once she got our order moments afterwards another 10-15 minutes go by until we got our delicious food (served yet again by our hostess and not the waitress.) but during that time our waitress was happily serving the other guests and got their drinks before us. While we were eating our food, I noticed she didn't bother to stop by our table to see how we were doing or ask about our food. She went to the other tables she had and asked them, got them refills and other things they have mentioned. I tried to make eye contact but she would ignore my eyes when we locked, even eyeballed our table and still didn't talk to us. Towards the end I noticed the hostess and our waitress talking and looking at us (assuming the hostess said something to her about us being finished with our food.) She then came to our table saying "I see you guys are full, here are your double deep fried Oreos" and passes off the check. When we gave her the card to pay for she then realized she had forgotten our drinks. which I do appreciate she comped our appetizer, gave us a discount and then made my drink (not her but yet again the hostess.) Did not appreciate the baby talk when she was talking though saying "I am so sowy" and etc. I don't know if this was intentional or not but this was an upsetting experience.

A few things to know before you go: reservations are required and the process is a little more involved than usual since you fill out a form and wait to hear back, so plan ahead. Also, since they seat a full table at a time, your actual seating may be a bit later than your reservation time. Worth checking their website, Facebook, or Instagram before you go too as they occasionally post coupons. Just make sure to mention it to your server before they ring you up. For food, the salmon and shrimp were the highlights for us. Shrimp comes as a starter for the table, but I ordered extra as part of my combo and it was worth it. The steak was fine, but not the standout in steakhouse country. Fried rice is an extra $4, which is reasonable given how good it is. Kids meals at $12 are a solid deal since they come with soup, salad, and rice. The spicy mustard dipping sauce and their spiciest sauce were both great. Our cook was friendly and engaging without overdoing it, which is the right call for teppanyaki. Prices were fair overall and the location is a bonus since Fat Brain Toys is right next door if you want to browse before or after with kids.
