KooKoo Teppanyaki and Lounge Bar

This place has great food and service. They were also terrific with our gluten free requirements. The chef’s are very entertaining too. I was struck by the age and condition of the fit-out inside though. The floor coverings in particular are well past their use-by date, very discoloured and worn, and just need replacing. A pity this detracted from the experience.

We rocked up on a Saturday night with no booking to celebrate my birthday and were seated almost straight away at one of the grills. Staff were very friendly and able to do a gluten free meal with out any fuss. We had chef Benz who was absolutely amazing with his jokes, cooking skills, writing in salt and especially his tricks. Dinner and a show at a great price. Only drawback were that staff were over asking us what we wanted to eat and drink when they’d only just seated us without giving us a chance to read the menu. This happened multiple times in a space of 5 minutes by different staff. Staff needed to have a system of who’s been dealt with and who hasn’t. Besides that, the place was fantastic and I would gladly go again.
