Ambiance
jonathan j.

Great food. Fresh fish. We were craving sushi after eating Mexican food for a week. Service was good. Price was not cheap. Casino next door for those of you who want to lose money! Overall 5 stars for the delicious fresh rolls, and sushi.

Salmon Sashimi
Lucy W.

Absolutely loved the atmosphere of this restaurant. A little difficult to find at first, but once we did the inside was beautiful. We ordered a variety of dishes from the dragon roll, to the fresh salmon sashimi, tuna sashimi, udon, hamachi, and volcano rice. Overall, the fish was fresh and the tuna was delicious and fatty. The dragon roll had tons of flavor and the portion size was quite big. The udon and volcano rice were great additions to the meal. The volcano rice is the equivalent to a Korean bibimbap. Our server was hilarious and made our experience all the better. Overall, a great place if you're looking for some quality Japanese food in Cancun.

Nigiri: o toro with black truffle, chu toro, salmon, bluefin tuna, hamachi and hamachi roll

120% Recommend! If you are looking for a great sushi place in Cancun you definitely need to come here! Our waiter, Henry Alexander, was incredible and provided great service! Ordered the oysters, chu toro, o toro, hamachi, and bluefin tuna nigiri. For dessert we had the red velvet cake/cheesecake and it was bomb! All the fish was super fresh and fatty!

Great place with excellent interior design and vibe. Staff was friendly but was not as attentive with water as I had expected from such a high class restaurant, especially when there were very few other customers. Seafood freshness was okay, not outstanding, and some slices of sashimi had not be cut well, with tendons still attached and some parts unchewable. 3.5/5

This is a double wammy. Not only am I the first comment for Kai, but this is my first comment ever on Yelp. To start.....5 stars is an understatement. This place blows away any sushi place in the US. The attention to detail, the dishes, the service, the management, and especially the chefs (specifically Edgar!!!!) has been nothing short of exceptional. The server that took care of us is Alejandro. He was absolutely on top of it. Really timely. Not overly attentive and looking over our shoulders. He provided us with recommendations when he asked and everything was absolutely amazing. Make this place one of your stops if you ever make it to Cancun
