Although they will pay for the privilege, sushi in kenzan is the top note. to save the pain to their wallet, they should get in at lunchtime. also recommended for lunch, as it fills quickly.

During a recent visit, a main size deluxe sushi set was ordered, featuring ten pieces (eight nigiri and two gunkan). The sushi was fresh and delicious, with a good fish to rice ratio. The deluxe set included chutoro, minced otoro, ikura, and fatty fish belly, all at a reasonable price. Additionally, a piece of otoro, scampi, and flame-seared wagyu nigiri was ordered off the menu, providing a pricey but high-quality experience. For dessert, the matcha crème brulée had a custard-like texture with a subtle matcha flavor, while the Japanese sweets bowl was delicate, sweet, and refreshing. The overall experience of the sushi and dessert was tasty, with good service. It is recommended to book a counter seat for a better view of the chefs preparing the sushi. The ala carte sushi menu is on the expensive side, so starting with a sushi set and adding on as needed is suggested.

Love the food and the place, have never seen so many Japanese in a restaurant. The staffs wear the traditional clothes give the authentic Japanese vibes. Grilled eel is the best. I really should know this place earlier! Hopefully I can dine in the private room next time, looks fantastic
