    Found this cute place exactly same as my name and had to come by!! Delicious food, super friendly and hospitable restaurant owners❤️ me and my friend got curry and katsu don and as a Japanese curry lover I can tell the curry here is the real deal (not from the curry packs)! The aroma when you walk in is just heaven like and you can tell they’re definitely serious about their food! Another highlight is how green they are, it just amazes me all the utensils and containers they use are paper/bamboo/glasses and in a fast-paced wasteful world we are in today it’s just almost impossible to find a restaurant like this. If you’re also trying to make a positive impact in the world and love authentic curry and great food- you need to visit! Thankfully we only live an hour away, will definitely be their regular!

    Very good karaage! The lettuce salad also has excellent seasoning. My only complaint is that they aren’t located in the Burlington area.

    Stopped in for lunch on our way through St Albans and glad we did! It was quite tasty and we really enjoyed the atmosphere. Will definitely stop in again when we're in the area

    Amazingly cozy family run restaurant. We ordered katsu-don, and the chicken curry-rice. Both were very yummy, the house made curry was complex and exceptionally delicious 😋

    IT WAS INCREDIBLE!!! such a nice surprise. Food was amazing, staff was super friendly and welcoming. The chicken was sooooo good. The pork (I don’t even like pork) was insanely good. PLEASE get the spicy HONEY RED sauce. This coming winter, this sauce and the curry rice will save Vermonter lives. Do yourself a favor and try the best Japanese cuisine in the area.

    My son discovered this place and eats there on a regular basis. I took the drive from Grand Isle to check it out and am so glad I did. The pork katsu-don is so incredibly tasty!! I brought home a curry for my sweetheart and that was fantastic, as well. The portions are plentiful and presented beautifully. You can see into the kitchen and it’s very clean. I really enjoyed chatting with Liz and looking at their kid’s artwork while we waited for our order. It has been a very long time since I’ve eaten out and LOVED the food. I highly recommend this place!! It’s worth the drive from wherever you are.

    A true diamond in the rough. If you do not know where Kaiju Kitchen is it is very easy to pass it by, but that is a mistake. The menu is small, but everything is delicious. I usually get the pork which is incredible, but the other day I got the chicken and was not disappointed. I highly recommend finding quaint little Kaiju kitchen on a small side street in St. Albans, you will be happy that you did.

    My husband had heard great things about Kaiju Kitchen and I’m so glad we finally went for dinner tonight. The chicken and pork were both incredible, everything was super fresh and full of flavor, and the service was great. Also, their miso soup is mind blowing - don’t sleep on adding that to your order. Thank you - we will be back soon!

    As a chef, I can highly recommend this place. We stopped in and got one of everything this afternoon. You can tell there is care put into the food. Curry is a bit sweet for me but that is my palate and for Vermont, it is perfect.

    Kaiju Kitchen is a family favorite for our Friday night take-out dinners! The chicken rice bento boxes are our family's go-to!! Not sure how Chef Taka does it but his chicken is pure deliciousness!! Such a pleasure to give business to this wonderful family! Not only do they serve delicious, high quality food, they do so with genuine kindness! Highly recommend!!!

👍👍 The service! To say it was excellent is an understatement. Even if the food was just ok, the service would still have brought it up to 5 stars. It just so happens the food was great too! It looked like everyone else was having the same experience. From what I can tell, the food is all made to order....
