First time here and now I understand why there was a line to get in at 4:30 when they first opened. The food and service were awesome!! Highly recommend!

If you're looking for a Japanese steakhouse in Durham, ask yourself: am I looking for the best AESTHETIC or am I looking for the best VALUE?

If you're looking for aesthetic and are willing to wait forever to overpay for smaller portions of comparable-to-worse food quality but you wanna be in a nicer room and take the nicest selfie to post online after, go to Kanki.

If you want huge portions of great food after a short wait and are willing to be in an older building with a lower ceiling + some smokiness issues that's filled with kind servers, great bartenders, and phenomenal chefs (shout out to Joe!) - go here and don't look back. Love this place!

Absolutely wonderful. When it comes to Hibachi. There is no where else between Raleigh and Charlotte I rather go. As far as I'm concerned I don't eat Hibachi unless it's Kurama. Facts!

Very low quality Japanese steakhouse. My whole plate got filled with rice and vegetables. I had enough portion to feed 2 people but at the same time it was the blandest and tasteless rice and veggies I have ever had. Also didn’t help that the one trick our cook did almost impaled me. 1 star would not recommend.

Honestly the food was absolutely horrific. There was no flavor. We had to ask for soy sauce to give the food flavor! The rice was worse than you’d find at a malls food court! I appreciated the server giving us refills but otherwise, ZERO STARS. DO NOT RECOMMEND. Restaurant stunk and was greasy. If you’ve ever had good Japanese food, you will hate this place!
