The chicken teriyaki was soft and delicious. The gyoza were perfectly crispy and tender. The volcano roll was incredible, and the eel hand roll was phenomenal, too. Service was prompt, courteous, and kind. The prices were very reasonable. Can't wait to be back!

My wife and I ate here on a Saturday night. We had a little bit of everything. Highlights were the salmon skin hand roll, torched salmon nigiri, mackerel nigiri, sunset maki, and white tiger maki. The octopus and scallop nigiri were ok, but not amazing. Food was overall delicious and prices were in line with a good sushi place. Also, the atmosphere was fantastic. The only nitpick I have is the food came out a little slow. Not that bad, but not a good spot if you're limited on time.
Great service and great food! We were seated immediately, order taken promptly, and dinner was brought out quickly. My favorite sushi restaurant in St. Louis.

So I dicovered this little Gem totally by accident. Let me just say that this place and sushi and atmosphere overall is an absolute pleasure. The sushi tastes Very fresh and everything is very light on the stomach. The very frequently ordered OMG roll that comes out in flames is absolutely amazing. Perfectly put together with a lovely not so stronge smokey flavor and it all just blends in so well. I have had sushi many different places including Japan where it originated from. So from all the Very overpriced joints like drunken fish and sub zero where you spend a small fortune and still leave hungry, Kampai Sushi is definitely one that blows them out of the water by a long shot. It has the lovely upscale look and feel but the prices are anything but. Very affordable and fresh and tasty. For all you Sushi lovers definitely check out Kampai Sushi.

Some of the best sushi I’ve had in the US, including Los Angeles and Seattle. They had ama ebi!! Very calm interior makes it easy to just focus on the quality of the fish.
Only small complaint is the green tea pot was delivered with the tea leaves still inside, which made it so that any cups after the first one were oversteeped. Good quality tea regardless.
Good service.

This has been our favorite sushi spot for a decade. My wife and I finally brought our niece with us so she could try sushi for the first time. She has a severe peanut allergy, but the hostess and server were incredibly accommodating. They went out of their way to verify there were no cross-contaminants at the sushi chef's station and even checking to make sure that gyoza was fried in vegetable oil and not peanut oil. We're very grateful for this.
