There are great options at this restaurant: The bar is large, inviting with good cocktails and bar menu. Then there is the regular dining including a sushi menu or the hibachi cooking in the back room. I haven't experienced it all yet, but am looking forward to just that! More

This place is entertaining. The chefs are talented and actually have upbeat personalities, more so then the other habachi places nearby. Be expected to catch zucchini sticks or anything ele edible with your mouth. If you catch it they reward you with spraying sake in your mouth. This is always entertaining for me...not sure why. The decor is amazing unexpected.... More

I went to Kon on a recent Saturday night to meet some friends for dinner and drinks. I was surprised I could find a place with a downtown vibe in a strip mall in the suburbs. The decor is fantastic (except my over-40 eyesight required that I open the curtains a bit in order to view the menu). The color-changing... More

I went to Kon for the first time in January, and I was blown away. The hibachi was fabulous, the sushi was so fresh and tasty. I was instantly a fan of Kon and couldn't wait to go back! I went back last night, and I can't believe this is the same restaurant I went to a month ago! One... More

Sushi is good and innovative. The wok menu is substantial with lots of options. Check out the hibachi menu. Last but not least, don't forget dessert--- it's the best! More

We went to Kon for family celebration. The food and experience were below expectations. First, the chefs squirt sake into the patrons mouths. That was not the issue as they respected when people said "no thanks." However at one point the chef jokingly squirted oil into my unsuspecting sister's mouth. The oil squirted all over her silk shirt, which she... More

Kon Asian Bistro has a menu with many different choices. We especially love the Rock Shrimp Appetizer and the Beef Negamaki. They serve a Szechuan Beef that is delicious. You can sit at your own table or chose to eat at the Hibachi where the chefs cook in front of you and you have a variety of choices at the... More

We went for the hibachi grill which was definately worth it. The chef puts on a good show and it is worth doing. I got the surf and turf. I wasn't a huge fan of the lobster but the steak was cooked beautifully. The sushi was the best I've had. I got the spicy salmon roll and it was excellent.... More

Our hibachi was supposed to come with soup and salad. They sat us down with another party already through salad and soup, so we got our dinner without being served soup and salad. When we brought it to the so-called manager's attention, he said next time you're in we'll make it better! When we said that was unacceptable, we shouldn;t... More
