"Koto Steakhouse was typically noisy, if not excessively, but that 's far from the worse. We were a party of four adults, seated with two additional parties, a couple and another party of three. We ordered and shortly we were served the routine fare of soup salad. The soup had a couple extremely thin mushroom slices and maybe three or four tidbits of, I guess vegetable items. The taste was pathetic, the salad mix was good, but the standard ginger dressing was unacceptable. The cook was talented with utensils and earned applause; until he served his offerings. After the short show, he set two of the routine dipping cups, for each patron and without asking, he proceeded to fill them. The couple were first and someone asked what he was putting in the cup. Honey mustard , he replied; when asked for White Sauce , he said they do not have it. He proceeded to fill my cup with Honey mustard, before I could stop him. When told that I don 't want H M sauce, he placed that cup on top of another cup next to me (another grandson); I told him he didn 't want H M sauce either, that went ignored. Next came a poor excuse for Ginger Sauce, which I normally enjoy, not here; it went untouched. As for the meals, at least two of us ordered steak med rare; it was served med well and was assuredly not tender. I 'm from out of town, but I cannot recommend the Koto Steakhouse. It falls far short of many Japanese Steakhouses I 've enjoyed. This negative review is rare for me, I have a wide tolerance for things acceptable and I 've declined to review for routine or mundane food or service. Above average and Outstanding food and/or service will always get a deserved review. Safe travels"
