This is definitely a good place for a casual sushi night. Prices are very good for the quality of what you get. It’s BYOB, so your overall check is not bad at all. My favorite sushi was the Dynamite roll. If you like scallops and sushi, this is the perfect combination. I would also recommend the Ocean roll. They are very tasty and definitely worthy for the price.

Unreal sushi! Our new go-to spot. Beautiful ambiance and beautifully plated sushi. We got the TUNA TATAKI appetizer and the CHICAGO CUBS and the OCEAN Speciality Roles. The waitress brought out an orange treat for dessert too. 1000/10! Cannot wait to come back. Telling all my friends!

SAVE YOUR GAS instead of going downtown this place is a hidden gem! We went with the Omakase and it was one for the books! I was blown away with the quality and presentation of the dishes and each plate was more delicious than the previous. The staff was friendly and we got to speak in more detail about the plates with Chef Danny who prepared our service. A great value for the quality of dishes we received. We will definitely be returning and bringing friends along on our next visit! Thank you Kai Sushi!

Small, relatively low-key sushi spot. I’ve been here several times, and the maki rolls are always great – consistently fresh. The special rolls can be hit or miss.

I was very pleased with my first visit go Kai! The lunch special is an absolute bargain, and I was very pleased with my spicy tuna and spicy crab rolls. Very reasonable prices for sushi. Note: They put a lot of salt on the edamame which I enjoyed, but something to aware of.

Kai Sushi is a cut above! We’ve dined in and carried out and always had great experiences. We had an omakase dinner last night and Chef Danny did not disappoint. The fish is always premium quality and the preparations are both delicious and inventive. Can’t wait to go back. Thanks Kai!
