Kyoto Japanese Restaurant in Old Town Scottsdale has been serving up teppanyaki favorites for 20 years, and it’s frequented by both longtime customers and hot young thangs looking for a light bite before hitting up the nightlife scene. Watch as the chefs toss food (and knives and cleavers) in the air before masterfully arranging plates of seafood, steak and chicken. While you take in the action, nibble on soup and ginger-dressing-covered salad.
