Order from them on occasion. most the time is using Uber eats or pick it up to go. the chicken and filet is usually not the best but the rice is always good. today I ordered UE and asked for extra sauce and ordered extra rice with a comment to add extra sauce as well
got the food and the chicken and filet as good as well as the rice but only included 1 sauce.

ÌWhat a great experience! Alexis helped get us seated and answered all of our first timer questions with an enthusiastic smile. We then we got to meet Garrett and we're just blown away by his skill and easy conversation. Everything was served perfectly to order!! We couldn't have been more pleased. Will definitely be going back soon.

I have seen very recent reviews with issues of with the chicken at this restaurant being bad. I too had an issue with the chicken there about a year ago where they refunded our entire table. Go elsewhere for hibachi.

Food was fantastic, service was great, you won’t be disappointed and will have food to take home.
Old review: (6 years ago)Let's just say I'm use to good Japanese food and this is as far from it as you can get. The tempura chicken was very greasy and the tempura vegetables we're under cooked and the batter was still Gooey. The white sauce tasted like straight mayonnaise with a little spice, the hibachi cooked steak was tough for med rare which was more med well and the rice looked like zebra rice, meaning some had sauce and some didn't. For the price you pay you'd expect more, sadly disappointed. This is just my impression of what I had, but judge for yourself. Or go to tombos which is far better than this and cheaper too.

Nobody's food came out at the same time. The chicken tasted musty
.. per 3 of us. A few of the tempura vegetables were good. The rice was dry and almost hard! They ran out of lemons. We had to ask for a lot...because it didn't come as you expected. We only got a fork. Had to ask for a knife and a spoon. The waitress kept responding "I'm just trying to be nice"!! Won't go back.

Food was amazing!!!!!! Every bite was literally melt in your mouth awesome!!!!! I wish the server would have asked if we wanted our salad plates cleared, because your already pretty close at the tables and to have all those plates around made it just really cluttered. Also a refill on our drinks would have been nice, but he never did. But overall amazing !

We have been here dozens of times, but tonight was extra special. It was my daughter’s 18th birthday, and we had a family party of 9. Our waiter was outstanding, our chef went above and beyond with the entertaining and the delicious meal, and we had the absolute best time! Thank you Kawa staff! You helped create a lasting memory for my family!

Patrick is always so good to us. And we enjoy the specials. Tuna tar tar is better than fancy expensive places.

Don’t like to leave bad reviews but this is not acceptable. Our last trip to Kawa wasn’t what it had been prior trips but the food was still very good. Tonight for my parents anniversary we took out like we regularly do for a special occasion and this unfortunately be the final time we order from this place. Besides forgetting a side salad and not including and ginger or wasabi with our sushi meals, I found what looks to be a molded/rancid piece of chicken in my soba noodles. This is beyond disgusting. Threw the whole thing away after finding this, of course after eating some of it already. We dont want our money back or anything, though I think my dad does deserve it. But I want to bring awareness to the restaurant, and whoever may have ordered tonight on 9/1/2024 that there’s a chance you got some rancid chicken in your entree. Very disgusted and we will not be ordering from here ever again.

I got chicken and shrimp lunch. My wife got steak lunch. Both of us got mostly rice and vegetables and very little meat/shrimp. The fountain drink were no good and the waitress did nothing about it other than take it off my bill. No complaints on the salad and soup. We can’t recommend Kawa at this time.

The portions are Very small! I got the filet and chicken, I had 5 chunks of "filet" and 6 chunks of chicken! I'm pretty sure the filet was sirloin. They didn't even give out that much vegetables.
We will not be going back.
The sushi was terrible! The rice was pretty hard on it.
