Kyoto Steakhouse of Japan

They do have gluten free options, but they’re made in the kitchen. The proteins were wonderful. The onion soup was great. The tempura ice cream was decadent. The ambience was lacking. Lastly, it’s unprofessional to have servers arguing in front of customers.

I've been here a few times to celebrate birthdays with my friend that loves hibachi/teppanyaki. Our last visit was just last week. We both wanted teppanyaki and were seated at a table with another group but had an empty chair between us which was nice. When you order teppanyaki you choose your protein and it also comes with rice, noodles, onion soup and a salad. You can also get a combo here which offers multiple proteins. I am currently eating gluten free and have been avoiding restaurants because of it... I called ahead to ask if they had GF offerings and they said just tell the server. When our server took our orders I advised I was gluten free but would like the teppanyaki if they could do it. He advised, yes they had gluten free soy sauce and would cook my plate in the back so it would not be exposed to the gluten. I ordered the combo with chicken and shrimp. He then came back and advised that the onion soup had gluten but offered double salad if I wanted and advised that because the noodles were gluten I would have double rice on my plate. He brought my salad from the back with everyone else's and then brought my plate out right when the chef was starting to serve everyone else their rice. He even brought me a side of gluten free soy sauce and a special sweet and spicy sauce the chef in the back made! The GF version of the meal didn't taste any different from when I've had the regular version in the past (if your eating GF you know thats a plus). Let me tell you, he made the experience so wonderful for me! I didn't feel like I was being needy or over the top and I still had delicious food! Our chef at the table was personable and did a few little jokes. He offered the "shrimp catch" but everyone declined. His "show" was enjoyable :) Friend and I were chatty so once we were done eating, we did sit in the sitting area for a bit to chat and someone even came over to ask if we needed drinks or anything. That was very nice. Reason for 4 stars is the food is good, but not amazing. I've been here before I was GF as well and it's just well basic. It's A LOT of food, but it could have more taste - maybe adding spices or something.
