    Kaze is one of the better Japanese restaurant in this area. They have a good selection on the menu and the standard is usually consistent and above normal. The Suntory is cool and delicious to drink. But during this visit, the oyster was poorly cooked and need to improve. The other food was delicious as expected.

    Place is cozy. They have VIP room. Food should be better grade than normal franchise sushi. Mentai maguro which.they burning Infront of us are just normal. Not special. Soft self crab not bad. Portion are good. Their slice kurobuta (black pork) which grilled is good. Salmon head is good too and fresh enough. .

    Comfortable dining experience with nice ambience. Service is definitely top-notch. Price wise is reasonable for the service and quality of food you get. One set will surely be enough to keep you full.

    I like the place. Quite a wide variety of food items to be ordered. The environment was cozy, and the staff there was gregarious. The miso soup was a bit too salty nonetheless.

    2 visits here & all is well. The lanterns outside are not lighted up & I thought it's not open I like the aunty waitress service :) food is good, only that the sushi can be firmer as it broke into pieces upon being bitten. The wasabi lacks punch.

    It is really unhappy with the stuff limit us for 1.5 hour dine-in time for the reason of they have to serve the next customer!!!😡 To be honest I would not use up to 1.5 hour to finish my food but it is really unhappy when listening to this rule! Food is okay but just really disappointment with this dummy rule.

    The place isn’t perfect but it is one of the better Japanese restaurant in Bukit Mertajam. The food here is mostly delicious and we had a lot of good times here. However, the staffs preparing the salmon sashimi need to be more attentive because there were bones inside the sashimi during our time there and no one likes having fish bones suddenly poking their gums during chewing. There are a lot of private rooms upstairs so it is ideal to reserve those rooms when dining in during the pandemic to have that safety assurance. The toilets here are also acceptable and not overly dirty which is a good sign. The overall service will depend on whether you are dining in or taking away the food. You will have a better experience when dining in due to the staff‘s friendliness and the food arriving quicker recently. The problem with taking away is that the waiting period for everyone’s food is different(some slower than others) and the food doesn’t taste as good when you bring it home. I do have to say the food prices are very expensive and not everyone can turn a blind eye to it. But if you appreciate good quality then there is no harm in giving this place a try every once in a while.

    I have to say their service is excellent. Even though the day I visited is already full house, they still managed to make arrangements without having to let their customers waiting too long. The waitress is also very polite and cheerful. The food was good also. Definitely worth the money.

    It was my second time here.. Purposely stopped by here before head to Georgetown. Overall the food taste average only. Not good as what we had try at the first visit. Honestly, I felt a bit disappointed... The salmon is overcooked and butter sauce for the salmon quite sweet and is overtake the salmon taste. The raw fish consider fresh but the rice a bit hard. Side dish - Tamako taste 'weird', different from what I had try before and the texture jz like I'm eating kuih 😅

    Overall good taste decent, the sushi could be better, the one that I cannot accept is the lime are dry🥲 I have requested for extra lime but they are all dry as well 😡 Hope they can improve their ingredients

  • 5/5 LK Y. 4 years ago on Google
    Great place to dine with the family. The food is good with huge chunks of real fresh sashimi that practically melts in the mouth. Go early as parking space is limited outside!

  • 5/5 Elwin X. 3 years ago on Google

    Please review your ordering/packaging flow for those take away/pickup order and train well the staff. Today I have waited my dinner 1.5 hours. At 5:32pm, I ordered my meal via FoodPanda app and then the app informed the pickup time is 5:56pm. I arrived the shop and show the order number to the waiter (GUY A) while the time was 5:55pm, so he asked me wait for a while and I cannot see my order slip on the table,(they arranged those order slips on the table respectively). At around 6:15pm, I asked again another guy (GUY B) and I told him ME: I have been here around 30mins, could you cross check the order? B: 30 mins? sorry, we have many items need to clear, please wait at the side. I sit back again and after 3 mins, B came to me, " Hey, left 1 item only so please wait for a while," he said. At 6:41pm, I felt strange and asked an old lady (who didnt wear the uniform but hard-working to pack the food as I observed), she treated me nicely and did help me to cross check the kitchen and order slip instead of telling me same thing without doing any check. Thanks god, she found that only 1 item had been done prepare (out of 3) and I was waiting forever nothing. I felt nothing make senses to me as the previous guys served me who were not doing job right. So I told the lady I decide to cancel on Foodpanda but she told me those leftover items are quick in preparation and she went to kitchen with around 5 mins and brought out 2 packs donburi. I know now the dine-in service is open but please review the human source arrangement for better customer experience. The food taste and quality are excellent to me but today experience made me feel disappointed as I went out and back home used 2 hours (1.5 hours waiting + .5 hour jam). I will not blacklist this shop, just wish those kind of experiences can be avoided for my next visit. Thanks

  • 1/5 Chen Active C. 3 years ago on Google
    Very expensive. Waited sooooo long for the foods (about an hour or more than that). Foods were served inconsistently and in a way which was not proper arranged. Overall, the price doesn't attach to the food portion and services. In other words, it doesn't worth the price.
