Kobe Japanese Steak House and Sushi Bar | Our Story
Columbia's home for hibachi, sushi, and tradition
Kobe has been a Columbia, Missouri staple for nearly two decades — family-owned and built around hibachi, sushi, and washoku under one roof.
Three ways to experience Japanese cuisine
Teppanyaki grill, hand-crafted sushi rolls, traditional washoku dishes — Kobe covers the full range of Japanese dining. Want the show or a quieter meal? It's all here.
The craft behind the sushi bar
Our sushi menu is built with the same care we bring to every part of the kitchen — fresh ingredients, clean flavors, and attention to detail in every roll. It holds its own alongside any teppanyaki order.
Gather around the grill
Hibachi dining is meant to be shared — the flare of the flames, the chef working the grill, strangers becoming tablemates. Birthdays, anniversaries, corporate dinners, or just a Tuesday night out: Kobe is built for it.
Nearly two decades and still going
The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette said it best: "Kobe continues to shine among its peers." Columbia has made us a local favorite, and we don't take that lightly.
