Kinkaku Japanese Steakhouse
What The Pigeon Forge Insider Says:
If you love Japanese food, then you are in for a treat in Pigeon Forge, TN. Kinkaku Japanese Steakhouse opened up this spring in 2006 as the only Japanese Restaurant in Pigeon Forge. I have to admit that I love Japanese food and have been to quite a few. My immediate reaction was to how clean the restaurant is. It is very open and easy to see all of the teppanyaki chefs making meals at all of the tables. We had a very entertaining chef whose cooking was just as great as his personality. An entree comes with salad with ginger or ranch dressing, soup, fried rice, and vegetables. I chose chicken and shrimp for my meats (you can also just get a vegetarian plate, but that’s not as fun!) and they were absolutely delicious. They were full of flavor and so juicy and tender. Kinkaku Japanese Steak House ranks at the top of my list of favorite Japanese restaurants. To be located within walking distance of my house could be trouble for me! If you’re in Pigeon Forge, TN and love an entertaining and delicious meal then head to Kinkaku! They are open 7 days a week for lunch as well as dinner.
Prices
Most of the dinner entrees are in the $15 - $20 range.

My husband and I ate here on our Anniversary.The food was amazing and the show was more than I expected.Wonderful place to eat and very entertaining.
They have some amazing sushi as well. As a matter of fact, sushi is the only thing that we have ever eaten there. Will be coming back in Feb ‘10 and we plan to stop by again!
The food is wonderful, but I can’t get over the cost that is ran up by the tip of 18%. We had 3 and it cost us 83.00 to eat because they automatically tally in 18% for 5 people. We were there (me, my husband and 15yr old daughter and our 2 nieces had their on ticket which was automatically tallied with 18% tip. Their bill was @$36.00 and they (the nieces - 17 yrs, and 18 years old) only ate the chicken. Me and my daughter did order the filgon and shrimp which is expensive but dang…………because of the tip, it was TOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO expensive. I always thought that you had to have six or eight in your party to be charged with the automatic tip……….I Don’t Know….
The food was good, tho.
