You can’t make a bad choice here! If you look at my other reviews, it’s very clear I am a huge fan of sushi and only post reviews for those I feel are the best around! I’ve been to Kanji multiple times and the beef bulgogi and sushi are always drool-worthy. They have a large selection of beverages and of course, sake. I like the location due to its proximity to various venues, including Findlay Market (across the street), Memorial Hall OTR, and Cincinnati Music Hall.

We came for lunch on a Saturday and had no issue a being seated right away. Everything we tried was delicious and our server, Abigale, was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the menu.

Have never seen a sushi roll cost $30, or seen a shrimp tempura over $8-10. If it wasn’t for Findlay market, without a doubt I’d be concerned about getting jumped during my walk from the PAID parking to the restaurant. Price isn’t worth the experience anymore.
