I have been here twice for lunch and both times were excellent!! The first time I had hibachi and it was amazing. This past time I got the bento box lunch special and it was DELICIOUS. Everything was freshly made and tasted so good. I got chicken, rice, California rolls, and the little fried rolls that come with it. My sister got the same and loved it as well. Our server was so nice and accommodating as we brought my 3 month old with us. We will definitely be back.

I have been to quite a few Hibachi steakhouses over the years and I have to say this is flat out probably the best food I have ever had at one in my life. Everything was cooked spectacular and beyond our expectations! The only small complain I have is the price is definitely a little on the high side. But if youre doing the whole Hibachi thing, you probably are expecting that anyway. Not sure how anyone could leave this place a negative review. Service was on point and the chef on the grill was engaged and entertaining everyone in front of him. I will for sure be back!

So good and so much fun! Went on a busy Saturday night, but they didn't miss a beat. You can wait in the lobby or in your car as they will text you when your table is ready which is convenient and I love! There is also a fish tank in the waiting area to keep you busy for a little wait. They have a water feature wall that wasn't working but I think they definitely should get working. The front wait staff were very kind and calm. Once we got to our table, everything was clean and timely and fresh. Our waiter and chef were AMAZING!! Had Japanese soda which was $4.50 which is a bit pricey when you can get them at the store cheaper. Everything else was fairly priced. I had the steak hibachi and my family had everything else from chicken to scallops. The chef was funny and not pushy. The helping sizes were good and included noodles and rice. I also got an appetizer of sushi and it was delicious and so fresh and well made!! The chairs and tables are decently spaced out leaving you enough space to sit and talk with your party. Can't wait to go back!

We went here for my mother’s birthday this last weekend. Not only did we have 17 people in our party, but we also had two allergy kiddos. They handled with ease. They also separated checks perfectly into our two parties(which most restaurants seem to struggle with this). The best part was when the chef came out. We had two different chefs for our big party and they were SO entertaining. Remarkably fun and worth the money we paid for our dinner. We will be back to celebrated again!

The best Hibachi i’ve had. Just delicious…unfortunately i didn’t get pics of the food before we started eating and these were the plates when we were about finished. Huge portions, i had three meats; shrimp, scallops and steak this included generous portions of rice, noodles, salad, soup and vegetables. friendly and very entertaining cook. My medium well steak portion melted in my mouth…

The food was well cooked and delicious. A little on the pricy side but totally worth it. Their soup and salad starters were especially great. Beautiful interior design and very clean. Only complaint I have is the waiter who was clearly stressed and somewhat not handling it well, as he spilled sauce on our table and left it. Leaving my wife and I to clean up. Otherwise great place.

Koto is a great place for hibachi and sushi. The atmosphere is chic, staff are friendly and it is a fun place. We have been a few times and each time have had a positive experience. The hibachi chefs are engaging and relate well with all ages. This is a great place for families or dates. Also good for special occasions if you want a fun, upbeat experience and don’t mind the noise that comes with it.

I really enjoyed our dinner there. The food was delicious and the service was great. It’s pricey though, each person costing about $45 (with gratuity), we got the Hibachi grill items with coke drinks.

I Decided to try Koto out for a quick lunch date, it's on the opposite side of the street from Hamilton Town center in a little plaza that is opposite of a ramen spot with the same name, it's a great possibility they're the same owners. As we were immediately seated we could see fresh sushi bring prepared along with several to go orders. It took no time for our server to introduce herself and take our drink order. She returned with the drinks and was available to answer any questions we have regarding the menu. We got clarification on what the bento box was and proceeded to place our order. We ordered potsticker / dumplings as an appetizer, my entree was steak and scallops that also came with rice and soup or salad, I chose mushroom soup, pretty bland, the very basic soup had a nice dressing that was with a sweet flavor. The entree was delightful, the portion was fair, I was able to take some home and enjoy the rest there. I also delighted a cocktail. Service was quick overall, food was lovely, the only issue came, when we were ready for our check, as a few other couples arrived, it was harder to catch the attention of the server, there was only one. Lunch prices we alot better than dinner but still could be a bit less.
