Merican — Restaurant in Kobe

Was a convenient spot to try Kobe beef and given the high rating, I thought I would try it out.

The appatiser was dreadful, 3 unrelated foods crammed onto a single small plate. Then they brought me a tiny bowl of mediocre soup and one of the worst pieces of bread I've ever had.

The beef was good, but as it was a tenderloin it lacked the marbling kobe beef is famous for. The side dishes were dispointing and over salted.

Service was fine but the tablecloth was dirty and they weren't changed between customers. That's fine in a fast food restaurant but unacceptable in a place charging so much money.

Overall, it was a very disappointing dinner with a high-end price tag. It is better to spend a buy more for a high end experience or do something cheaper. Not...

Tastey food but that's it. We spent the extra $ for A5 Kobe since we were in Kobe and it was very good but not fast at all. Service was ok but disjointed. Had to ask for bread twice, then butter separate 3 times. Failures: They need to change the soiled paper tablecloths between customers. They can't be wiped in between and are actually gross. The worst part was when we went to pay, we were forced to use the last of our yen because their card machine wasn't working. They could no accept any other methods than cash. Close to $10,000 yen. Should have put a sign up outside warning customers. Would be a 1 star but good itself was very...
