Kobe Bellevue Restaurant

Kobe Bellevue's charm went beyond the delicious ramen and crispy wings. The sushi rolls were fresh and satisfying. Our server treated our kids like royalty, patiently answering their questions and fulfilling their requests. While the chipped soup bowls and hazy water glasses might need some care and replacement, the warmth of the service and the happiness radiating from our kids made Kobe Bellevue a winner in our book.

Kobe is an Asian fusion restaurant that has Chinese, Japanese, Korean and other Asian influenced foods. Their menu is quite large because of the options too. Parking around here is usually in a garage for shopping malls. Inside they have about 2 dozen tables and some bar seating to watch the sushi prep. The staff are super nice and food comes out very quickly. Prices are a bit high (not Bellevue high though) but portion sizes are good. The taste is pretty good as well. Teriyaki is always a solid choice but their sushi is decent too. Overall a great place to get a lot of different types of foods.
They have a Ramen eating challenge where you can win $100 gift card if you wat it in a half hour, but have to pay $50 if you give up. Being someone who can eat a lot of food in one sitting, I'd say I probably can't win this challenge so be weary out there.

Glad to find this restaurant in the CBD of Bellevue! Great selection of Korean and Japanese dishes. Portion and variety are great too!

Very attentive server and the duty manager is very accommodating, too!

I had a really good time at dinner! Pricing and quantity of food was a perfect mix. Great flavor, only down side was my katsu was a little dry.

A bit of a small place dark but cozy.

We got our food really fast. The staff was super sweet and the food was absolutely delicious. I suggest getting the special menu item deep fried spicy tuna with the special sauce on the outside. So amazing.

Bulgogi was tender and had a deep marinade flavor. Balanced portions of carrots and onions. Served on a hot plate which keeps the food warmer for longer. My favorite bulgogi place in Bellevue.
Sweet and sour chicken was crunchy and sweet. It was a big serving size.
Miso soup and salad were a very nice touch that I was not expecting. Service was fast and professional. They serve water 3/4 full. This is a great way to reduce waste.
I highly recommend this place and would gladly eat here again.

Not a bad place at all really but the 3 rating is down to two things in particular: food was served extremely fast which makes me think it was ready-made (and not smoking hot either, as I think it should be when you stir fry something), and a somewhat feeling of not being very clean. Service was good, price is low, and menu is (maybe too) extensive. Good place for cheap eats but not up to Bellevue standards. May come again.
