    Parking wasn't perfect, but far more manageable than expected. The staff brought a warm, down-to-earth energy, and the late-night 9-11pm happy hour was a home run! The ambiance felt intimate and polished, while the food delivered--especially the sushi and chicken appetizer, required some serious craftsmanship. The hot dog also was worth trying once, but it wouldn't make my "order again" list. We'll be back!

    We like this restaurant. Service is very friendly, even if a bit slow. The food is yummy. I'm going to say it, we've been to Japan and it's not as good. The pork in the katsu dish should be thick and moist. Still, we enjoy our meals every time we come.

    We wandered into Kyatchi on a random Friday night and had a great time. On a corner with some culinary stars, it tends to blend in but don't pass it by! The ambiance is a bit odd and disjointed but we kind of loved it as it keeps the "hole in the wall" feeling. Our server was fantastic - we weren't sure how hungry we were so we just ordered rolls, nagiri, and onigiri as the dinner rolled on with no real objective other than than walking away full - and he just rolled with us as we went. The sake flight was great with some generous pours but I was disappointed in the mocktails. The rolls were delicious, albeit a bit basic. The onigiri was great and I was a huge fan of the salmon but the tuna just wasn't hitting for me. We were in the mood for sushi so we didn't stray too far on the menu but we'll definitely be back for the hot dogs and a broader spread which I think will help boost this spot to five stars for me. Thanks for the fun meal!

    This place is always hot, especially on Friday nights. Luckily we were able to get a table for 5 quickly. The hosts are always very friendly, welcoming and accommodating to my children that have a variety of allergies. They do their best to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience and meal. This place is good for groups, pricing is moderate but reasonable. Parking can be scarce depending on the time, you might have to walk a block but it's worth it. We got some wings, sushi (which is always a must and you can't go wrong) and some momo. The momo was a miss this time as it was very charred and tasted as such. I appreciate the hospitality here and will return and highly recommend.

    I've been visiting on and off since 2017-18. The menu has a lot of great options inspired by Japanese cuisine. Parking is street and can be tough when busy. The inside is nice and I have always had good staff experiences and recommendations. Korokke - (this was a special) 4x fried potato croquettes. Corn, peas, carrots, kewpie mayo, tonkatsu sauce and bonito flakes. Really yummy almost like comfort food. Tsukune Skewers- chicken meatballs. Delish Shishito Skewers - Japanese chill pepper I love shishito peppers. Really good. Kaisen Yakisoba - Japanese egg noodles, shrimp, scallops, cabbage, onion, poached egg, red ginger. Japanese mayo, seaweed flakes. A lot of noodles and good flavor. Botaneb - spot prawn - unique but not a normal order. More fun to try. Suzuki - (under the Oshizushi part of the menu) sea bass, shiso leaf, black pepper, side of yuzu ponzu. This was my favorite. It was so delightful. Old Fashioned- Sesame Fat-Washed Suntory Toki, Thyme Simple Syrup, Cardamom & Umami Bitters Kara-age - (small plates) marinated, fried chicken cutlets with lemon and Japanese mayo Kinoko dog - mushrooms sauteed in butter and soy with Parmesan Kabocha Coffee Cake - Japanese kabocha squash pumpkin spice cake Always will visit again

    Needed an idea for a potluck holiday party and stopped in to visit with the staff. Super helpful and recommended a great combination of specialty rolls and appetizers. The food was amazing and the presentation was gorgeous. The platter they pulled together for us was a huge hit and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the food! Highly recommend checking this place out. There are a couple of better known sushi restaurants in town but this is definitely the best sushi place you haven't tried!

    Good sushi and good service! There's plenty of other dishes to try like ramen, rice toppings, and a variety of drinks. For kids they even have ramune on top of your regular soda selection; Cool ambiance with a Japanese baseball theme. Worth it for a date or even a group dinner!

    I have been here twice, once in 2017 and once a week ago (2024), and I know that their Tonkatsu has remained the same since it looks exactly the same as it did 7 years ago. Regardless, I had a good experience here overall, and I would recommend it to people if they ask about Japanese food within the Twin Cities. For the agedashi tofu, our server poured the liquid after the tofu was brought to our table, which was the first time I have seen it done that way in the Twin Cities. The tonkatsu contained a good amount of rice and meat which was great, but the "potato salad" was bland, which I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be the case. Having some cucumbers and grape tomatoes was good for me, but I still wasn't sure if that was normal. Regardless, I liked it. Other than those, I enjoyed the ramen and the chicken kara.age as well. They were as good as I imagined they would be. In terms of the nigiri and maki rolls, I thought they were overpriced and there were not enough to fill up my friend's stomach. She had to order additional rolls to ensure that she could get a decent amount of food to be full. Our bill accumulated quickly and ended up being beyond what we had expected. One thing I would also mention is that Kyatchi is located in a good location that makes it very convenient for those in the King Field area to go there, including walking. If people ask me to recommend 5 Japanese restaurants in the Twin Cities, then I would mention this establishment.

    Kyatchi is an absolute gem in Minneapolis for anyone who loves authentic Japanese food, especially sushi/ramen... but their Hot Dogs! From the moment you step inside, you can feel the cozy, welcoming atmosphere. I took my better half for Valentine's Day dinner. Aside from sushi and ramen, I highly recommend trying their House Dog and Kinoko Dog. The ramen had a rich, deep broth. They also have an excellent selection of sake, which paired perfectly with the meal. Overall, Kyatchi is a fantastic spot for a casual yet top-notch dining experience. Whether you're a sushi lover or just looking for quality Japanese food in Minneapolis, this is the place to go!

    We really like Kyarchi. Not only it has good sushi, sashimi, ramen, and also interesting Japanese hotdog . You gotta try them. My toddlers also like the children menu. The rice, and chicken meat ball is my toddlers fav. We enjoy the various dishes we ordered, as well as their drink and dessert. The servers are very friendly, and the restaurant's environment is well-decorated and clean. Recommended.

    The food is a little overrated, especially for its price. On average, our spending was about $20 per person and none of us were full. Portion sizes are tiny and the taste of the food wasn't that good. Service also took at least 20 minutes, and we were seated around 9pm, so we didn't expect the wait times for food to be that long. Overall rating: 5/10

    GREAT quality of the fish, and the prices are totally acceptable! Great service & lots of seats available during weekend lunch time. Would definitely visit again!

    Love Kyatchi. Came here for my birthday and got my favorite-the tonkatsu. Quick service and good vibes. FYI you can't tip on your card so bring cash, or you might be able to Venmo your server.

    3-Star Michelin Vibes -- Without the Flight to Tokyo!…read more Having dined at Jiro in Tokyo, I can confidently say this spot rivals that world-class experience -- with a warmer touch and a staff that speaks perfect English! From the moment we arrived, the valet parking made everything easy (though I recommend taking an Uber if you're doing the wine pairing... you'll definitely want to savor every sip). We went for the Matsu omakase, and wow -- every course was a work of art. The freshly grated wasabi, the thoughtful pacing, and watching each dish come to life at the sushi bar turned dinner into a full sensory experience. Chef Shiga was an incredible host -- friendly, engaging, and clearly passionate about his craft. And to top it all off, we had the pleasure of meeting Owner-Chef Shigeyuki Furukawa at the end of our meal -- such a gracious and humble culinary genius! My wife and I left absolutely blown away and already planning our next visit. Perfect for a date night, a special celebration, or simply treating yourself to something unforgettable. This place has officially earned a spot on our favorites list!

There is a great variety of rolls so everyone is going to be pleased with the meal. The restaurant itself is tight on space but the dining experience makes up for it. I recommend you beat the dinner rush and go early when they reopen for the evening. Warning, it does get really busy almost everyday because it is just that good! Location-wise it is great because if you struggle to find parking in the small lot next to the spot, you can park on a residential street behind the restaurant and take a short stroll.

    Husband wanted sushi and I wanted ramen so we decided to try this place for best of the both world…read more We came around 1pm so there was a happy hour menu (selected smaller portion $5 appetizers and $13 sushi roll (not really cheap for sushi happy hour). Cream cheese - typical but kind of small Chicken Katsu- crunch outside and not dry inside Ramen- from the presentation, does not look creamy. It also did not taste creamy. Doesn't have the typical tonkotsu ramen taste I've had before. Broth is a little bland. The pork belly is basically pork belly and not the typically ramen chashu pork I'm used to. It was a disappointing bowl of ramen. Sushi- presentation wise, does not look fancy. The plating looks like what you would get at an all you can eat place. Per husband, it was decent good. As for me, based on ramen, I would not go back for that. Maybe next time I will give sushi a try but not sure if it's a god back to place. If you want $5 appetizers, it's worth a try. If you get happy hour sushi rolls for $13 each is not too bad but regular price is about $17 per roll (like dynamite roll.) Service was quick.

We had our standard sushi order: wontons, gyoza, spicy tuna roll, California roll, and Philly roll! The wonton and Philly were my favorite, with good cream cheese to wonton ratio, and the lovely cream cheese bite in the roll! They did charge $1 for the side of eel sauce, which felt unnecessary for the serving size.
