Kumo Japanese Steakhouse - North Port, Port Charlotte

Kumo Japanese Steakhouse & Sushi crafts authentic Japanese cuisine with a side of flair. Classic entrees ranging from steak teriyaki to shrimp tempura dot the menu, but the chefs serving up these savory bites are the real treat. They create each dish right in front of the guests while treating them to a bit of a show whether it be juggling spatulas or tossing a bit of shrimp onto one's plate.

The food, however, doesn't take a back seat to the performance as the menu sports hibachi combos such as New York strip steak and filet mignon. They also craft a variety of sushi rolls ranging from sashimi to specialty rolls such as the Fuji with tuna and crab meat deep-fried and topped with spicy mayo and tempura flakes.
