Cute little restaurant with an impeccable vibe! Very cozy feeling and atmospheric. I thought the sushi was very good (I'm not even that big of a sushi fan, but the "fancy roll" I ordered was sooo good.) They also have a couple korean dishes on the menu - I ordered the BBQ short ribs and thought they were yummy, though a little tough (perhaps that's how the dishes come though?) The service wasn't the the most attentive unfortuantely, and the Tempura Ice Cream I ordered wasn't even slightly sweet... didn't make for a great dessert. Overall it's these issues theat lead me to give it 4 stars instead of 5, but in any case I did enjoy my experience and I'm sure I'll be back soon.
I had such a wonderful experience here! The environment inside was so cozy and comforting! The staff was very nice and the food was fantastic!! Highly recommend
The chicken teriyaki was soft and delicious. The gyoza were perfectly crispy and tender. The volcano roll was incredible, and the eel hand roll was phenomenal, too. Service was prompt, courteous, and kind. The prices were very reasonable. Can't wait to be back!
My wife and I ate here on a Saturday night. We had a little bit of everything. Highlights were the salmon skin hand roll, torched salmon nigiri, mackerel nigiri, sunset maki, and white tiger maki. The octopus and scallop nigiri were ok, but not amazing. Food was overall delicious and prices were in line with a good sushi place. Also, the atmosphere was fantastic. The only nitpick I have is the food came out a little slow. Not that bad, but not a good spot if you're limited on time.
So I dicovered this little Gem totally by accident. Let me just say that this place and sushi and atmosphere overall is an absolute pleasure. The sushi tastes Very fresh and everything is very light on the stomach. The very frequently ordered OMG roll that comes out in flames is absolutely amazing. Perfectly put together with a lovely not so stronge smokey flavor and it all just blends in so well. I have had sushi many different places including Japan where it originated from. So from all the Very overpriced joints like drunken fish and sub zero where you spend a small fortune and still leave hungry, Kampai Sushi is definitely one that blows them out of the water by a long shot. It has the lovely upscale look and feel but the prices are anything but. Very affordable and fresh and tasty. For all you Sushi lovers definitely check out Kampai Sushi.
