Food was subpar. We have experienced other Hibachi places and always have a great time. There was no “show” other than a fire at the beginning. Food was not very well seasoned. I don’t think I saw garlic at all. We had a large party and they didn’t even ask about dessert or anything of that sort. Next time we will make sure to make Kanki reservations way ahead of time.

I ordered takeout on a Friday which is why I wasn’t surprised that it was busy nor upset when I ended up sitting and waiting an extra hour for my food to be ready. From how busy it was and from the reviews online I figured it was going to be good and worth the wait, but this was probably the most disappointing hibachi I have ever eaten. I ordered shrimp hibachi for >$30, and they used baby shrimp that was barely fully cooked let alone seared like it typically is for hibachi. The rice wasn’t really fried either, and the broccoli was tough. I’m not sure if maybe my entree was different because it was an online order, but from this I wouldn’t recommend this food (at least this order, the salad was pretty good) to anyone nor come here again.

First time back at Kabuki since the start of the pandemic. High expectations from prior visits. Our food and server were good, so 4 stars given. The experience, however, was disappointing. Our chef stood at the grill and made our food with little interaction. My grandson was so disappointed as other customers around us were laughing and clapping and having a great time. Time for our chef to find a new job or retire!

Great show and sooooo much food! Everything was fantastic! Always a great outting!

Not great. Had a reservation and still had to wait awhile. Food wasn’t worth writing home about!

Great atmosphere! We arrived after their rush at 8:10 and were seated and derived drinks right away. If you get there and have to wait, they have beautiful fish tanks and an indoor koi pond to help you pass the time! We had a wonderful Valentines Day weekend meal there — The cook was an ace and very kind and accommodating to all of us at the table.

Had an great time. I proposed that day and surprised her with a dinner afterwards here. The food was absolutely amazing and the show was great. We had so much food leftover. Such a fun atmosphere for people to come celebrate over good food and a show.

Food was average at best during my experience. It was prepared fine, but tasted very bland and needed much more flavor. Wait staff didn't come to check on our table for over 20 mins for refills or anything. I finally had to seek them out for a to go box and our bill. Bill for 2 was $100. Disappointed to have to spend that much for bland food and to be ignored during our visit.

Lots and lots of food! The ginger dressing is delicious! The Hot Sauce is thick and that's how I like it! They serve Noodles, Rice, Broccoli, and tons of food with your order! The staff is very friendly and nice. It's a little pricey but you get more than enough food to justify the price. Will come back again!

Walking in and sitting at the house, was bias by def gave it a chance , it was good and the chef was very entertaining!
