Been coming here for years and the other day they had a large party come in about 10 people. We had just finished eating and just paid. We were talking for about five minutes when the male waiter (who is always working) came over and asked us to leave because don’t you see all the people waiting…. Completely threw us off guard and made me upset when I saw there were about 4 open tables and others finishing up. He tried laughing it off saying something about you know how it is. This place was good but now wont be going back… so rude especially for spending 80 bucks to be kicked out after 45 minute meal.

The Hand Cut Spicy Tuna Roll gets a 5 Star. The Spicy Tuna Roll was tightly wrapped with just the perfect amount of rice. After one bite, the spice had a "kick" like I had never experienced before. The quality of the food is excellent, and for the price for the one cut roll, it is worth the value. I will be recommending Kampai Sushi House to my friends, family, and my clients.

This place has always been my # 1 favorite sushi spot. Amazing owners, delicious rolls and fresh fish, Asahi DRAFT, AND fresh wasabi, what more do you need?! I’ve been frequenting here since they opened. Try it, and if you complain, you cannot be pleased lol.

UPDATE: We have been coming here for at least 10 years. We spend $9-10,000 here a year at this restaurant with our family.
We have never had such rude/poor treatment as we did two nights ago.

My husband ordered Toro. When it is good, it has a creamy smooth texture. This night the Toro was chewy and I couldn't eat it. My husband told our waiter, who went over to the sushi bar. He came back and told us the sushi chef said you are right, the piece of fish you got did have gristle in it. We'll adjust your check.
What they did was discount the Toro to $25. The waiter who we've known there forever, was rude. We talked with the sushi chef/manager saying we didn't want to pay for something we did not order. He became indignant, rude and told us we didn't have to come back.
Such poor customer service was shocking!
I don't think things would have turned out this way if the owner, Tom had been there. Unfortunately it happened.

Very popular restaurant, even on a week night you might find a wait! Fresh sushi and great teriyaki chicken. Great choices on their Bento boxes.

My family and I have been dining here for many years. We spend at least $10,000 a year between all of us. I have always enjoyed visiting with Tom, one of the owners. That all ended this evening. I ordered Toro. It's expensive because it's a delicacy. We'll this time it was not good. There were 5 pieces. The first couple were fine, but then the next couple I bit into were chewy. So I told the server who told a manager. The server came back and told me they check the piece of fish and found I was right. That in itself was weird. He might as well have said I was found not guilty of lying! Hahaha. Anyway, instead of taking it off the bill, they reduced the charge from $32 to $25. When I objected, I was given a lame excuse which I did not accept. Then, the server got rude. Next the manager was even ruder. I was shocked. I admit that I got angry at how absurd they were behaving. I paid the bill. They got their $25. And we'll spend our $10k a year at another sushi restaurant. That manager should be fired. But I think he may have been an owner, which makes it worse! Poor Tom.

So first of all, while looking in the area for good bento lunch box options, I came across Kampai Sushi House, which was very close to where I was, and fairly highly rated. However, when I went to the actual website to check the menu, etc., I was immediately confused. Their website makes it sound as if they are not open for in-house seating/dining. It simply says they are "now open for take-out," and it makes reference to checking back on their website for any changes. You have to scroll far down the site to find hours and menus, but still no mention of in-house dining. A call to the restaurant revealed they ARE open for dining, as well as take-out. They suggested that the site hadn't been updated since Covid... um, hello, that was years ago, as far as businesses being closed and only available for take-out. So once I figured out I could eat there, I decided to give it a try.

Ordered a standard chicken bento box. The included egg flower soup was too salty (and this is coming from someone who generally likes things more heavily salted.. and is also a bit salty ;). And the bento box food... salad was not crisp and fresh like most places, the rice was dry instead of sticky and fresh, and the chicken was overcooked and bland... and also a bit dry. Overall, very average, and definitely not somewhere I'd go again. Far better choices around.
