Kobeya

The service has decreased. We waited long time to get our bill (yes the bill) and some customers left before even ordering. The food is still good even it seemed to be smaller portions. Hope they can fix all that.

Very well priced quality

Very clean and reasonably priced Japanese teshoku restaurant

Overall it's a cute and cozy place for a quick bite. It would be a five star place if the portion is slightly bigger and more options are added to the menu. For example, extra spicy or hot/boiled vegetable in the curry.

We love Kobeya, our neighborhood Japanese restaurant. We've been going here for Japanese curry (with chicken cutlet) for 6-7 years, and lately have been happy that they've added ramen. I was a little worried that the ramen might not be up to San Mateo standards, but its actually great. Otherwise we love this place for bento boxes, simpler sushi rolls, and curry. This is an informal place that is comfortable for any weeknight meal. Head across the street to Kaori if you want full-on sushi or fancier (not better) Japanese food.

Simple wonderful place to eat. I've visited twice. I had sushi and Japanese curry. It was very good. I will return. Customer service is very good.

Tasty standard Japanese fare, made to order, on the cheap (my bento box with tea was less than $10) Chill small place, aabout 12 tables. Servers let you eat peacefully and don't hover, though quickly respond to requests. Free parking along 25th.

Changed ownership recently and their ramen broth is delicious! I was hoping for mushrooms or some other toppings in the broth, but I got the feeling this is a new add on to their menu, so I think more options are on it's way. The chicken karage was delicious, crispy, slightly sweet and savory. They have bento combos and sushi at a great price. Will definitely be going back.

Vegetable tempuras were crispy & fresh. Pickled radish looks colorful & just right. Crispy side salad had nice home dressing taste. It's a casual dining where you place an order & get a number for someone to bring the food to your table. Love their California roll too!Gonna come back for more to try other menu items.
