kabuto japanese steakhouse and sushi bar

good but....... i enjoyed our meal at kabuto, to an extent. the kids were entertained for the most part and the chef tried to make it fun (he could have done better.) thefoodwas pretty good but at the end of the experience, felt it was really overpriced. it was crowded and the service left much to be desired. i love japanesefoodbut prefer elsewhere, especially for that kind of money. better bet: bonsai on bridford parkway. no chef at the table, but you get the samefoodfor about 1/3 of the price. service is excellent. hostess is nice and prompt. we'll stick w/that!

mother's day here was not a good experience. we arrived 15 minutes early for a 6pm reservation and had to wait 15 more minutes to be seated. not a deal-breaker, but then it took another 25 minutes before we had water. by the time we saw our wait staff again, we had empty glasses where we had even finished the ice! it was 7pm before anyone came to cook but the cook top was on and hot during our wait and we were all sweating and quite miserable. thefoodwas good but the bill was exorbitant. the "tip guide" on the bill was about 21% additional. really kabuto? goodfoodshould not be a miserable 90 degree wait and the price of gold!

priced too high for mediocre experience at best. service was okfoodprep and flavor was below average.

tasty food, great environment. when you go to a japanese steakhouse, you want high-qualityfoodand an entertaining, talented chef, and you don't want to drop your life savings on dinner. go to kabuto; you'll be happy. it is a longtime favorite of mine in greensboro. i've celebrated many birthdays and other occasions there.

yes, it's pricey but well worth it. my family and i went last night and 5 of us ate hibachi for 80 with a free kids meal. we all took home about half of ourfoodso that's dinner and lunch the next day for 80, 5 people. not bad. greatfoodas always. i'd recommend the filet.

i like this place.foodalways prepared correctly. my only complaint and the reason i don't really eat here is because they need to just throw in the towel on certain sea creatures, like red snapper. there are more sustainable options.

thefoodis amazing. it's. pricey but well worth it!

friendly and attentive staff, good food.. we visited kabuto a few weeks back for hibachi and sushi after a day of rambling around guilford county. we ordered a terminator roll and two pieces of hamachi. the hamachi was very clean and fresh tasting. the roll was very well done. the rice was perfect and the integrity of the roll was top notch.
our chef comes out to a table of uninterested tweens, their folks, and my wife and i. he did everything he could to get the kids interested in what he was doing, but didn't seem to have much luck. just the same, thefoodwe had was good.
our steaks were cooked perfectly, we never had our glasses go less than half full, and it was an enjoyable evening. there are other options in greensboro where the prices may be lower, but i haven't experienced the same service as i did here.

meh shows, good rolls.. the teppanyaki (hibachi) side of kabuto lacks a lot of the flair that i have experienced at other japanese steakhouses,thefoodis good yet over priced. as a result at kabuto i generally sit in the bar and order primarily sushi, which is for the most part very tasty. i mostly stick with the more americanized specialty rolls as the more plain rolls are a bit lacking at this location. the specialty rolls however more than make up for any short comings of kabuto.

sorry for my last review. i thought i had clicked on bonefish grill.

the parking isn't always that great but thefoodis always amazing and the waiters are outstanding. my favorite thing there is the bang bang shrimp.

great soup. the "show" is not the best and the meals are a little pricey, but thefoodquality and taste are alway great. parking can be a little tricky since the place is always very busy.

the service was bad and thefoodlow quality compared to other japanere steakhouses i've been to.
