"Delicious Japanese Food"   My Rating
1 jmwatts	Posted on: Monday, September 14, 2009
	Review: We have been to Kotobuki several times. They are not a vegan restaurant but they do have an awesome and extensive vegetarian and vegan menu. My favorite is the "Beef" Teriyaki. You get a very good miso soup followed by a nice salad with a fantastic dressing. Then the beef teriyaki which is served with a potato cake and a crispy, non-greasy spring roll. The beef has an authentic taste/texture and you get two large pieces. This is a very filling meal. I also really enjoy the sweet potato sushi and the asparagus sushi. I believe that there are 8 or 9 more types of sushi on the vegan menu but I have not tried them yet. My partner is NOT a vegetarian. She recently had the vegan "shrimp" tempura and could not believe that it was not really shrimp. She was amazed at the flavor and texture. They also have a good vegan cheesecake which you can have "regular" or dipped in batter and then fried. This place is considered pricey by some. We generally spend about $50-55. The fountain sodas ARE ridiculously overpriced! Aside from the price of the sodas, I do not find that they are overpriced considering the amount and quality of the food. That being said, the service is impeccable. The staff know the menu, are courteous and the service is prompt! Well worth the trip! It deserves 5 cows!!! Also, if there is no street parking, they have a free parking lot in the back of the store, just zip around the block.   Pros: Huge Portions * Extensive Vegan/Vegetarian Menu * Great Service Cons: Overpriced Sodas * *

	Review: Agree w/ the above review in that the portions are big - was enough to quell a huge appetite like mine, bringing the other half away for the next day's meal. Very friendly staff.   Pros: * * Cons: * *
