Went here for the first time for lunch. Great atmosphere. Wait staff was efficient, professional, and nice. Food came out quickly and was delicious. Enjoyed Gyoza and Crab Rangoon appetizers and Fried Rice dishes. Cocktails were great. Will definitely be returning!
This is a great place. I really recommend doing the whole hibachi thing. They are super nice there and the hibachi is awesome. I had the chicken and my wife had the scallops. I have to say, the scallops are well worth it - in both quality and the quantity. Our friends got the filet mignon, which they said "was like butter" and they loved it. Overall, really awesome and would totally go back!
Sat at the bar and had Lous as my bartender. He was great! Very friendly, didn't rush me and gave me suggestions on what to get. Food was excellent and came out in good time. If you get to this place sit at the bar and ask for Lous! Spicy seafood soup, salmon carpaccio and a sushi roll no rice.
Amazing place. Excellent food and good service. I will definitely go back
Delicious food cooked right in front of you! Chef was a lot of fun and very skilled. A little too much oil, but otherwise very good. Portions were very generous. Food allergy warning: They do use butter on the noodles, and then cook the veggies and meat after. If you have dairy allergies, make sure to specify so they can cook yours without butter and not cook your vegetables/meat nearby the buttered noodles.
Koto is always a good time and the food is fantastic! A+ If you are in thr Albany area it's a great group setting for larger parties too!
I have gone to kotos as long as I remember. The restaurant its self is appealing and clean. The last three times the service has been rushed and my food is burnt because the grill is way to hot. The wait times are also very extensive. As for the price. I used to pay around $60 for two combo hibachi plates. The price increased to $80, including a mandated service fee. I paid $120 for three combos, which included a $17 service fee. I was at the restaurant for almost 2 hours with only less than 30mins of the chef actually being there! Also, we had a shellfish allergy and said no shrimp. I only realized when the chef came that he dropped the shrimp off the cart. I explained to him no shrimp we have an allergy. He proceed to pick the shrimp off the floor and place back on the cart! I used to very much enjoy Kotos. Now it’s over priced and the service is terrible. I will no longer be going here and would not recommend unless you want to pay a lot of money. Highly disappointed!
Thank you for making this restaurant fun to go to! I had so many happy birthdays from workers, I received a birthday hat, and had a funny chef that made food in front of me and my family.
