Excellent food and service. The knowledge of the staff on wines is very good. Lovely views out onto pool and lawn areas. Pricey but worth it, especially if you appreciate good wine with your meal.

Approximate cost: $100

This place has to be one of my faves in Townsville. Excellent service, beautiful atmosphere and to die for steak. This place is defiantly get what you pay for as the meals are not on the cheap side but are well worth what you pay for. I also like where it is as its just a walk across the hallway to the pokies.

Approximate cost: $40 -80 bucks

Kobe is probably the most upmarket restaurant I am aware of in the Townsville area. It serves up some absolutely succulent steaks which are cooked to the minute and offer the first class service you would expect from a high end restaurant. The meals are not cheap and you are definitely paying not only for the quality of the meal but also good service. It's a great place to take a date for an anniversary or perhaps a client whose business you are trying to woo. I can see myself definitely going back to Kobe to eat on special occasions in the future. Being attached to the casino property also makes it a good place to go for a meal before enjoying the night playing the pokies or your favourite table game.

Approximate cost: $45-85

Ambience - outstanding. Service - excellent. Value for money - good. Food - ok. I liked that they included side accompaniments with steaks in the price. However, there is room for improvement on the food quality and some of the cooking techniques used.
The seafood tasting plate entree we ordered had sufficient variety and flavours. Though some of it was very greasy and the prawns were slightly overcooked. The presentation could also be improved. The sweet potato shavings were heavenly!
For mains we ordered sirloin and t-bone steaks with accompaniments. My "spring vegetables" were definitely way overdone and covered in oil. Whereas they cooked my partner's chips perfectly and presented them in a cute mini colander. We didn't much care for the creamy garlic sauce however. My mushroom ragout was NOT ragout but a watery brown sauce with some mushrooms thrown in.
As for the steaks themselves, my partner's was done perfectly medium rare, while my t-bone was medium well (as ordered) on the outside, but very rare in the middle.
Overall, Kobe did some things very well, but there are definitely some techniques that need improving.
They also have an extensive wine list which can significantly blow your budget, the cheapest bottle at approx $30. So be prepared to splash out if you are into fine wines!

Approximate cost: $40-80
