A friend and I went around 7:20pm on a Sunday and somehow felt completely invisible. The "hostess" (big burly guy, huge silver chain, you can't miss him) sat us but didn't bring menus or say anything, so we just sat there confused for a solid 8 minutes. Our server eventually came over with menus, and then it took another 7-ish minutes before we could even order. It wasn't even that busy, which made it more confusing. The miso soup was actually good, lots of seaweed and scallions, love that. But the spoon?? Tiny handle, thick base, and weirdly hot to hold. I felt like I was fighting it the whole time. The crab rangoon though? Delicious. Super creamy filling, not overly crunchy on the outside (which I personally prefer). And the dipping sauce was more on the liquid side, which honestly worked because it coated the rangoon really well instead of just sitting there like jelly. We didn't get side plates. At first they brought out a fork and knife instead of chopsticks (those showed up later with the sushi). Not a huge deal, just... odd. The soy sauce tasted old and STRONG strong. And the bottle was dirty, which didn't help. The floors were also sticky, my shoes were literally sticking on the way out. The whole place smelled like grease and now my jacket does too. Love that for me. Rolls: * Spider Roll - way too many scallions and kind of a weird flavor. * Shrimp Tempura Roll - actually very good, no notes. * Hellfire Roll - nice spicy kick and HUGE. Each piece was basically two bites. The worst part? I left with pretty bad stomach cramps, and these are super normal rolls for me that I order all the time elsewhere. There were a couple decent moments, but between the slow service, sticky floors, questionable soy sauce, and how I felt after... I probably won't be back. Or maybe just grab carry out and stick to simple rolls and those crab rangoons. If I left smelling like fryer oil (one of my biggest pet peeves) and clutching my stomach, I am not handing out 3 stars. read more

Food is good. We had California rolls & shared a bento box. Price was good for two people. With a soda it was under $35.

Kabuki Japanese Restaurant - Great service, great food, a wonderful time! Yummmmmm - Sushi Bars Near Me - Flint, Michigan

I ordered a takeout and damn it was good. I had the samurai combo which included the medium rare steak, chicken and shrimp. The noodles on the side were amazing and probably the best I ever had. The service I took the drive through so there wasn't much to talk about there other than he seemed to be a nice friendly guy. Not so sure about the location the environment is really dark, and the brick building looks kinda weird within the location but I guess you should never judge a book by its cover. Would definetly come back once I come back to flint for another trip. read more

Good food- excellent service- pretty sure I got sick from the lunch I just ate there just 2 hrs ago. My husband is fine though. Bummed about this result. read more

Server was excellent ! Food was very good ! The problem - Very Very SMALL Portions For $30 I expected a much larger portion! Unfortunately I Won't go back because I can get all ya can eat and a drink at Hibachi for $15 read more

This is some of the best hibachi I've had in Michigan. The food was fresh and high quality, and the presentation was excellent. The customer service was outstanding, and the staff was exceptionally friendly. I was personally greeted by the chef, which made the experience feel welcoming and genuine. The atmosphere was peaceful, and the service was fast and efficient. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're in the Flint, Michigan area. Some of the best things on the menu that I've tried so far is the kabuki fried rice(for people who like spicy food) and the samurai hibachi(shrimp, chicken, and steak) if you're looking for first time recommendations. read more

I ordered the shrimp bento box and my son ordered hibachi chicken (didn't have time for a pic, he was eating fast. lol) . I ordered mine to get a variety. Everything was tasty. My son was very pleased with his portion size and flavor. We also ordered crab ragoon. That was good as well. My 4 stars is only because the floor was sticky and the bathroom could've been cleaner. Regardless of those two things, we will definitely stop in again for another meal! And not to forget, our waitress was great! read more

Kabuki Japanese Restaurant - Shrimp Bento Box - Sushi Bars Near Me - Flint, Michigan

Amazing food! Best gyoza I've found in Michigan. Everything about our food, from the presentation to the flavor was outstanding! Wonderful service, very personal and caring. Family Owned and operated. I will recommend this place until the cows come home. Can't wait to go back! Place was VERY clean as well. I'm the type of customer that looks for dirty light shades, fans and ceiling vents and I was very pleased with the cleanliness! read more

When they first opened, I went and had to cancel my sushi order bc the sushi orders were an hour behind for dine in - we found out after we ordered, waited, then told about the delay. We canceled our order then. Friday, 2/20, I was sat for dinner in front of a tv with the sound blasting, I asked to be moved. When our soups came to the table, our waitress' thumb was in the soups when being carried to the table. I was so grossed out I let the waitress know and she acted like I was wrong for pointing it out. Bottom line, food safety is not a priority. So gross! read more

We were delighted to have another sushi restaurant in Flint. So for our first order we ordered a variety. We were incredibly disappointed. The sushi contained weird combinations. For example adding cream cheese to a roll. Also the rolls were much smaller than usual. The fish itself was not flavorful. read more

Ate dinner here last night. Had crab cheese Rangoons for appetizers. Four diners, and we had 2 teriyaki dinners and 2 Bento boxes. The bento boxes come with hands down the best vegetables I have ever had at an Asian restaurant (Along with lots of other goodies). We all really loved our food. Everything was very hot and fresh and came out of the kitchen really quickly. The only reason for 4 stars and not 5 is the atmosphere. It is really brightly lit and very stark feeling. We all agreed we would order to-go next time -- and there will be a next time! Will definitely come back. read more

Food and service were good. Friendly and accommodating servers. A little Ordered sushi, soup and salad. Might try hibachi next time. read more

Excellent! Sushi is delicious, unique combinations with nice flavor, they are huge too!! The Monster roll is my favorite. We love the steak & scallop or shrimp hibachi..it comes with noodles, veggies, & rice. The side salad has a yummy peanut -ginger sauce. The miso soup is great too. You really get a lot of food for the price. Blessed to have this here in Flint, so much better than Saganos. read more

First time here,our server was fantastic,she explained the menu very well! The salad had an awesome sesame dressing! I had the steak and shrimp that came with vegetables,noodles and fried rice The steak was tender, shrimp was very flavorful and when you add the Yum Yum sauce it just elevates the flavor even more!! The entire staff was so friendly,we will definitely be back,maybe every week!! read more

We stopped in for dinner, ordered a Bento Box, a Sushi Roll, and a Fish and Rice dish. The first two items came within 10 minutes, and were fine. 20 minutes later I asked the waitress where our third order was, and she said it was because there was only one Sushi chef working, but then we overheard that he missed the order. We finally got it and just asked for it to go. We won't be back. read more

portions were small, the salad was beyond pathetic with just a little lettuce and one shred of carrot. i wouldn't recommend, i wont be going back. No one compares to saganos! read more

Food was good. Service was slow but the waitress and hostess were apologetic and gave us free appatizers and 1 free sushi roll

Everything was delicious!! Especially the black dragon roll and the spider roll. AMAZING!! Their sushi chef really knows what he's doing. Plus he sent a free order of the monkey brains to our table- ALSO INCREDIBLE!! Never had anything like it but I'd definitely order it myself next time. read more

the food is amazing and the staff is so kind! it was our first time and we got take out. the portions sizes are great, the food is hot and yummy, and the inside is very charming and calming. prices are great! check them out for sure!! read more

Hair was found in food and restaurant refused a refund claiming none of the cooks have hair as if other peoples hair doesn't get on people's clothes or anything. I have ordered here before but will not ever return due to poor customer service and the disgusting way they handle things. Please keep in mind no matter what is wrong with your food the business cares about their money more. read more

10 out of 10 i do not recommend! very small portion and the salad is only lettuce with two tiny strands of carrots! they should be ashamed of themselves! a waste of money! and the food was not good! read more
