I got Norovirus. It’s the gift that keeps on giving, and giving, and giving. And when you think it’s gone it still keeps giving. How fun. The health department confirmed this, too.

For an AYCE sushi restaurant I would say it’s definitely better than a lot of other AYCE sushi restaurants in the area. The quality was good. Great service.

The place was nice from the start, but they've since changed their menu. Sashimi now comes with an additional charge, and all the iPads were broken. They also replaced the plates with cheap plastic ones on the running table. We live nearby and have visited seven times already. Unfortunately, the service has been terrible; the servers seem grumpy and unhelpful. Just yesterday, the server acted as if I had shown up at her house and asked for a free dinner. It was very uncomfortable! The food is pretty good by the way.

Me and my 2,5 year old daughter loved that place. Just for 30$ you get unlimited sushi and instead of servers just robots serving you - that is fun!

I’ve been to Kanji twice for AYCE sushi since they opened in September and had a pleasant experience both times. While the options on bottom belt of the conveyer leave something to be desired, the sushi I ordered was fresh, the service was polite, and the atmosphere was relaxed. I’ll definitely be back!

REALLY fun place for a family! Some food spins around on conveyor belts, some you order off a menu and it delivered by a robot trolley. The place was clean, the food was delicious, and the staff was attentive. will definitely return!

alright alright fellas. This review is going to be a collaborative effort written by my boyfriend and I. For starters, this was our second and probably last time coming here. We came here a month ago during its grand opening and everything was great. Loved having a variety of sushi options on the revolving sushi bar along with being able to order stuff a la carte YOURSELF with the IPad they HAD at each table. We just left the restaurant extremely disappointed, and the rapid downfall of kanji sushi must be studied. You now have to order things a la carte through your server, which makes the wait time to order things a la carte significantly longer. It took each round of our a la carte orders a min of 20 mins to arrive at our table. Their revolving sushi bar definitely did a 360 and their options on that were EXTREMELY LIMITED (mostly filled with dessert and appetizer options). It felt like an entirely different restaurant from when we came a month ago. From what was my new favorite ayce sushi spot in NOVA quickly became my least favorite.
Boyfriend’s Input:
Our first visit here a month ago, left me thinking to myself “wow. This feels too good to be true. Fast service and fresh sushi at a reasonable price?” Well, it really was too good to be true. It seems as though Kanji Sushi deployed a strategic effort to earn buzz within the community and on social media. They must’ve operated their first couple of weeks at a loss, because they’re definitely making a profit now. They must have returned the iPads they had at every table, allowing customers to order at will. Now, a seriously understaffed wait crew goes around taking individual orders from every single table. The rice to sashimi ratio is even greater than before. Kanji sushi has cemented itself as just another mid tier AYCE Sushi option in NOVA. Things could’ve been so good.
First time visiting. Food and staff were excellent. We did the AYCE lunch. It’s a great value for what you get. We sampled a little bit of everything both off the conveyor belt and the menu. The sushi was fresh. I especially loved the sashimi plate, the peppered tuna with ponzu, and the yellowtail jalepeno roll. The steak hibachi was also delicious. The food delivery on the robots was novel. We will definitely be back.

We went twice during the soft opening. That will be the only times we visit. Certain staff is lazy and hide in the back and expect others to pick up their slack.
As far as the food. We got sick shortly after eating here. After seeing these other reviews I wish I would have ordered test kits but I did not know that was even an option.
A few of the tables are a bit wobbly and need to be fixed as any little bump moves the table up and down.
The rolls are very Americanized and slathered with sauce so if you like that kind then you are all good.
We will not be returning to this restaurant, sad because this type of restaurant would have been awesome, but I am not willing to risk the safety and health of my family.

I saw the initial good reviews and thought that it would be a great experience however, to my surprise I would see unsanitary conditions as well as me getting food poisoning. I noticed a few others also experiencing the same symptoms as me upon looking further in the reviews. I scream out don’t go to Kanji Sushi- bad sushi and service.

Food is tasty, about the same quality as Kura sushi. However this place has $30 all you can eat. Definitely a great deal!
By far my favorite Sushi place!
