About KO Japanese Restaurant, Teppanyaki and Sushi

Grab a counter seat at KO for theatrical teppanyaki in Jimbaran, where dinner comes grilled with flair right before your eyes. Knives flash, flames leap, and chefs keep the room laughing while searing fresh seafood, buttery steak, and vegetables with garlic butter and soy sauce. Tucked inside the InterContinental Bali Resort, the layout divides into lively grill counters, a quiet sushi bar, and traditional tatami rooms. Timing matters here—diners specifically circle Thursdays for the unlimited teppanyaki spread, then settle back with an icy cocktail as hot plates land straight off the iron.

  • Live Counter Theatrics: Chefs cook dinner directly at counter tables, blending knife tricks, flame flare-ups, and playful banter with guests.
  • Scheduled Feast Nights: Dedicated all-you-can-eat evenings draw crowds for bottomless teppanyaki grills on Thursdays and sushi spreads on Sundays.
  • Multi-Room Dining Layout: Guests can pick their mood across lively teppanyaki grill stations, an intimate sushi lounge, or quiet tatami rooms.
