Kabuki Japanese Restaurant

Loved coming here, until today. As my family and I arrived we held the door open for an elderly veteran that was walking out of the establishment. The host made a face as he «greeted» us, told us it would be 15 – 20 min wait. We agreed. Then he told us to close the door as he walked away. Excuse me? I’m sorry, apparently the door was still open. Did he have to use a tone? No, thanks. We won’t be returning.

The Japanese Lasagna, BBQ beef ribs, Koshou Beef, and the Banana Tempura is satisfaction guaranteed! Get the Kabuki Red Mask Rewards card –great savings if you like Japanese cuisine.

great food, great service, come here all the time and its perfect,

When you’re craving sushi, sometimes it’s quantity over quality (that’s what AYCE is all about). And sometimes it’s price over quality. And that’s what Kabuki is all about – at least for me.
Not to say their sushi is bad; it’s just not the best I’ve ever had (hello, Osaka on Sahara). It’s a little one-​note and a little warmer than I like. But I was looking for sushi at happy hour prices, and Kabuki certainly fit the bill.
My husband and I sat at the sushi bar and split a pitcher of Sapporo (a steal at $ 13.95 for HH). We also ordered several rolls off the HH menu: Philadelphia and spicy tuna ($ 3.95 each), and Rose (shrimp tempura, spicy tuna, and avocado) and Alaskan (baked salmon on a California roll) ($ 7.95 each). It’s nice that they show you the regular price vs. the HH price on the menu, because that let us know that we saved $ 14 – plenty of cash to get an order of hamachi sushi ($ 4.75) off the regular menu.
Service was good and thoughtful. They gave us a free bowl of edamame, which was a plus, and the sushi chefs gave us an amuse-​bouche of okra slathered in something that tasted like peanut butter. (Not sure what it was, but it was pretty tasty!)
There are other things on the menu if you’re not in the mood for sushi, but if you are in the neighborhood and you’re looking for a good HH sushi experience, Kabuki is a good call.

Always a great meal, never disappointing… the atmosphere is quiet, comfortable. the sushi chefs always prepare excellent rolls with just the right proportions of rice to fish. Excellent experience every time!

Definetly earns 5 stars! Came here for my birthday today since kabuki been my favorite place since I lived in Los Angeles and I’ve gotta say I’m more than satisfied with the food and service at this location! If your looking for great tasty Japanese food Come to kabuki!!! Their lunch hour prices are superb! Of course dinners a little bit more but it’s worth it!

Kelly is an awesome server and the food is very good too. Great presentation and happy hour selection is v impressive too. Will surely come back for more.

I ordered spicy miso ramen, sashimi, and bbq ribs here. The servers were really nice and the food was generally well prepared. I particularly liked the sashimi plate because the sashimi was really fresh. I highly recommend this place for dinner or lunch if you are staying at one of the nearby hotels.

Great atmosphere, delicious sushi and great service. I ordered a glass of plum wine and the serving size was more than i expected which was great. The waitress was on top of things and refilled my water every time it got low.

Good lunch spot. The rolls are a little on the unimaginative side and coming during HH only gets you a minimal discount, but they have a surprisingly extensive menu complete with vegan options. That said, I still only get sushi here– the salmon-​asparagus roll is a favorite. The chirashi is a little basic, but the fish is fresh. The poke bowls are a better choice.
Bonus points for offering free brown rice substitution on all rolls. They also have gluten-​free soy sauce available and a 10% LVAC members discount (dine-​in only). When getting takeout, they usually throw in a cup of edamame.

I have been coming to this location for about two years. Kabuki is always spot on with their food. However, service is quite spotty. Our waitress was slow to refill drink orders. She also forgot two rolls we had ordered and a drink. When we were finishing our meal, our waitress brought out one of the rolls she forgot about. At this point, we were pretty disappointed and decided to take the sushi to go. I will look for a better place with a higher quality of service next time I go out to lunch.

Good food good service. I come here for the grilled octopus and spicy tuna on chrispy rice, pretty good.

Love the variety of selection. The sushi is always fresh. Love the toro there and the mori soba cold noodles. Jessie our server was the best. My kids love eating the food there. Overall great food and great service.

I have to say… It’s refreshing when your expectations are met on a regular basis. Been to Kabuki many times and this is my first review. The food here is delicious. Never had s bad meal here. The prices are reasonable. They’ve got some unique menu items. The Sautéed Asparagus and Garlic Edamame are delicious appetizers. Sushi and Sashimi are great too. They’ve got lunch specials till 4pm with a good selection. Try it out you won’t be disappointed.

This place was so yummy. Our server was friendly and super attentive. We ordered gyoza, spicy tuna crispy rice, a dragon roll, and ramen. The flavors were great as well as the presentation. Our dragon roll actually looked like a dragon! The only reason I gave it 4 stars was because although the ramen was good, I have had better at a different restaurant in California.

This was a nice surprise find! My wife likes sushi, I hate sushi. But this place has a little bit of everything, and is a good place for people that often go around with people who like sushi, but they hate it! =)
They have really good Happy Hour deals that seem like they change from time to time.
Recommended in the strongest terms.

Ok so I’ve been coming here since the day that they opened. All was great until the last few times I came in. It’s steaming in there the a/​c is set so high that I was sweating I was going to leave but wifey was starving so I sucked it up and stayed. So u tell the waitress why is it so hot in here she replies corporate said to set it at a certain temperature WTF!!! I had to go to the bathroom and wet my head down to cool off!!! So we order some sushi rolls and the rolls are half the size that they were before!!! WTF!!! So now I’m really pissed. So here I am sweating and eating the half size sushi rolls. I just wanted to get out of there ASAP so I can get to the car and pump up the A/​C!!!
I don’t think I’ll be going there again in the near future!!!

On my never-​ending search for good Japanese food, Kabuki popped up on my Unilocal list tonight. We walked in at 9:00 (they close at 10 on weekdays) and were greeted at the door by Hana. The atmosphere inside the restaurant was relaxed and modern. One star for atmosphere.
Our waiter was Shelby, and he was very attentive and friendly… definitely took care of my boyfriend and I. He swung by to check on us regularly, which was nice because we never had to find him. One star for wonderful service.
Just a heads up, their menu is very extensive. Be prepared to battle indecisiveness, because you’ll want to eat everything.
Now, the food. I REALLY wanted to give this another star, but my chirashi just wasn’t what I was expecting. The sashimi was alright but the pieces were small, as were the ones in my boyfriend’s teriyaki chicken/​sashimi teishoku. I understand that fish is not cheap, but if you are going to charge $ 17 for a bowl, it would be nice to have the portion sized accordingly. I’m from Hawaii where EVERYTHING is expensive, and I’ve had a cheaper yet more abundant chirashi there. However, my bf’s meal was priced at $ 19.99 and came with a salad, tempura, bowl of rice, teri chicken, sashimi, and miso soup. That’s a lot of food for one dinner, so maybe I just have to try other things on the menu.
On the plus side, the chicken karaage appetizer was yummy, and all the plates were pretty. For dessert we had green tea mochi ice cream, which was also a little pricey for the two pieces it came with, but the ice cream’s flavor was light and floral and rounded out the meal well. A third star for these points.
Overall, not quite the authentic Japanese food I was craving, but there are a lot of fusion items and a vegetarian/​gluten free menu that I’d like to try, so I’ll definitely be back.

Supposedly this restuarant is another transplant of a popular place from CA. And I can see why it’s so popular :)
The service was friendly and efficient. The space is clean and nice. The sushi/​sashimi, while not the best I’ve ever had, is decent and fresh. They have a very extensive menu and some interesting options too. Rolls are tasty :) Also, they gave us free birthday ice cream! Score!
Oh, and you gotta get the garlic edamame!!! It’s addictingly delicious…

We used to frequent the Town Square location but now we frequent this location because we moved.
Our favs: allllllll the veggie sushi of course… and other fav dishes we have are the garlic edamame, tofu steak entrée, the stuffed shiitake mushrooms, the fried plum rice ball thing (can’t remember what it’s called)…everything is always yummy. Oh and the kale salad… amazing and the garlic cloves that come in it are sooo yummy.
Recently we took my sis and bro in law and we sat outside on the patio. Had wonderful service even though the bartender was very busy and took care of that area also.
We we order or meals always come out SUPER fast.
Consistent smiling service, consistent food, tons of vegan options… we love this place.
