Kai Modern Japanese Bistro offers a delightful dining experience with top-notch service and a wide range of delicious menu options. The restaurant boasts a Japan-inspired ambiance, featuring a picture-perfect blossom tree and a pretty couch with floral decor at the entrance. Guests can enjoy fresh sushi, including the salmon delight roll and balboa roll, along with other exquisite main courses. While some dishes, like the Hamachi crudo and watermelon salad, receive praise, others such as the Jidori curry noodle are noted as fair. The expresso martini remains a highlight, and the cocktail menu is impressive. Although the overall experience is highly recommended, some guests suggest that the tempura shrimp should be cooked fresh to maintain a warm crunch in the rolls. The setting is clean and stylish, making it a nice spot for evening outings with friends, though it is recognized as an expensive option for lunch. The sushi chef is not Japanese, and the cuisine leans more towards fusion rather than authentic Japanese.
