Kabuki Japanese & Korean Restaurant

I like that they have korean and japanese options. Lots of rolls to choose from. I think the roll is more worth the price than the sashimi. My mom wanted sashimi but it was 4$ a pc. Like one small square slice. The roll was around 6-7$ and u get 6pcs with rice so that looks more reasonable. There were free korean banchans. Kimchi, jangajji. The chicken katsu had a good serving. It was 2 big pork katsu cut into strips, with some Veggies, spaghetti, and rice so you’re definitely filled for the price. Kalbi soup was pretty big too. Good for sharing.

Came with friends on a chilly day and the restaurant was almost closing, but the staff were still so kind and accommodating. The food was warm, flavorful, and perfect for the cold weather. We really appreciated their hospitality. We’ll be back for sure!

My wife of 15 years is Korean & she gave this place a thumbs up. I found it rather enjoyable too. IMHO it’s one of the better eateries around. High quality of side dishes and a decent array of both Japanese & Korean.

I used to like this restaurant. Soft tofu soup was my favorite. We (3 of us) went to the restaurant yesterday (Friday. Jan 24, 2026). We ordered 3 soft tofu soups (1 medium Seafood and 2 mild Originals), 1 seafood pancake and 1 Grilled Mackerel. We didn’t wait long. But here are what we got: 1. The pancake was good. 2. The Grilled Mackerel was over cooked but I don’t want to complain about it. 3. In stead of 3 seafood soups, we got 1 “seafood” and 2 “original“. There were couple tiny pieces of squid meat and a few shrimp tentacles(no shrimp) in the “seafood” soft tofu soup. The “Original” soup tastes odd. The meat in the soup was not what we usually got. They look and taste very strange. I feel that they might from other leftover dish. I didn’t want to complain so I just picked all the meat out before eating. It was a terrible experience. It was a dinner with friends. Nobody wanted to complain about food till the end. So there was no picture to prove it. But I did told the waitress when she came to clean the table. I showed her the meat I picked out. We will never go back to this restaurant. This is my first time to complain a restaurant.

One of my favorite places to get sushi. The restaurant has a great atmosphere and very kind staff. To this day, every food item I've ordered here has been the highest quality I've eaten anywhere. As someone who eats a lot of sushi, this is the highest praise I can give.

We have been going to this establishment for years and when we ordered sushi on Sunday, my sister and I ended up getting food poisoning from the same roll the next day. We had vomiting and severe dehydration, and we both almost fainted. When I called the establishment yesterday, I was told to call back today because there was no manager. The first thing I was asked was if we went to the doctors and they did not apologize for what had happened until way later in the conversation when I started getting frustrated. There was no reason for us to go to the doctors, especially when we know the symptoms of food poisoning and they would not have done anything for us in an office. I also explained to the manager that I am a physician assistant, and that I see patients with food poisoning all the time so I understand what the symptoms are and how to alleviate them (rest and hydration), so there was no reason for us to go in and be seen. She then proceeded to tell me that she will let the owner and chef know but ultimately they needed a doctors note. They did not even offer to refund us for the rolls that caused the food poisoning because “she was not in on Sunday” but I could have told her what our order was exactly. I will not be coming back to this establishment.

It’s been a few years since we’ve been back here. The last visit left a sour taste in our mouths, but we decided to give it another try. The food was decent overall — the udon and certain sushi rolls were good, except for the chicken teriyaki roll. The biggest disappointment was when my wife ordered a spicy tofu soup. We waited about 40 minutes, and the waitress kept saying it would be out soon. We eventually canceled the dish before it arrived. The service was unapologetically slow. Probably won’t be returning anytime soon

I had ordered thier shrimp tempura and spice ramen. I was served only 2 pieces shrimp tempura along with a few veggies. The ramen felt like it was packet noodles. I do not think I will be visiting the restaurant again.

Love their LunchBoat offerings - a bit of everything. Generous portions. Hot food, hot. Cold food, cold. Attentive service. Will I return? Yes!

They could serve fresh fish and better cuts. Used to be my favorite place but their quality went down. The last three times I ordered salmon sashimi I fed it to my dog. It was slimy, smelly and completely unappetizing. The last time I ordered tuna sashimi I left half on the plate. Very disappointed.

We always order take out but decided to sit in today! Delicious! Service was quick and attentive. Ambiance was cool. Food was even better than last time we ordered. The chicken fried rice minus carrots and zucchini was full of flavor and cooked perfectly! The miso soup and fiber salad was tasty. Our rolls were perfect and very good. We will definitely eat in from time to time. Our go to for sushi always!

Walking in to Kabuki Farmington, I had high expectations - the dining area makes the restaurant look very nice and perfect for a date night or family outing. There were enough waiters and staff, allowing for us to order quickly. However, once I ordered my go to sushi rolls, I have to say I was disappointed - they just didn't taste as good as what I was expecting. The rice was falling apart and the sauce was way too heavy, overpowering the rest of the roll. I was pretty disappointed, and don't think I will be back. Maybe it was just a bad day / bad order, but it was enough for me to not want to come back.

Was talked into giving this place a try and had a completely different experience. Very patient and accommodating staff. Clean and cozy ambiance. I loved the Raider Roll so much, I went back the following week.

Decided to try a new restaurant for sushi and I'm so glad I decided to go to Kabuki! The restaurant is "seat yourself" and the staff was pleasant and welcoming. Our waitress were very attentive and gave recommendations on the menu. I ordered the miso soup which was so good I forgot to take a picture and the I love shrimp roll. I added cucumber in my roll and I definitely recommend! Everything was fresh, the restaurant was clean, and most importantly the food was delicious. Perfect sushi spot to enjoy with a medium sized to small party. Looking forward to trying other items!

Anywhere with bluefin tuna belly on the specials is good with me. I ordered 2 pieces along with the lunch bento, and heart attack appetizer. I ordered WAY TOO much food but it all looked so good. And it was. The service was good. Great selection for a weekday lunch. The inside was a bit dark with business lunches spaced out around the dining room. The tuna belly was excellent. I could have just had a whole meal of it and would have if I had seen the special board before ordering. The bento was as expected. An assortment of items and tasty enough. The heart attack was a meal in itself. Four large halves of jalapeño stuffed with cream cheese and crab salad drizzled in some sweet sauce. The sauce was too much but the app was a treat. I left with a lot of leftovers. Worth a try for sure.

Love this place. Their food is sooo good especially the naengmyun. The service isn't the friendliest but not too bad.

I used to LOVE kabuki. This place has gone down hill! Water cups in small metal cups as if we're in prison. Sticky tables. The menus are filthy. The sushi was the worst sushi I've had in a long time. Mushy rice, not fresh tasting sushi, really cold tempura, crab salad tasted like it was prepped 5 days ago. Appetizer came after dinner. The staff is super nice though. But never again!!!!

Food 5/5 I would like to place this restaurant in my FFE category. Meaning Fast, Flavorful, & Effective. Service 5/5 they get you in and out and assist greatly with menu options. Ambiance 4/5 the decor is a complete vibe. I would appreciate if they added mellow background music. To drown out the sound from operations.

Ever since we have massive inflation. Kabuki menu price jump $4-5 on the items I usually orders. The menu item that you get the most bang of your buck is their katsu dinner or bulgogi beef I think, and they are $20. It will fill you up. Their sushi is always mid. Maybe too much water in their rice or something. Not bad but I had better sushi in other Japanese restaurant in Novi and other locations.

We used DoorDash and did not receive one of our rolls. For 16$ that is really not acceptable. We had a friend who didn't get to eat their dinner because of the location. We called back to see if we could come back up to grab it but they put me on hold and then the call got disconnected after a bit. I called right back and was told "yep you received the roll" - when in fact, I did not. Pictures to prove it. Plus one of the rolls was burnt to a crisp and tasted like crap because of that. Not at all like pictured. Will not return, and it is a shame.

Sushi is mid. My problem is every time I go in there to pick up my food it's a hassle. Theyre requesting you to show your ID!! My coworker picks our food up all the time and she was never told to verify that she bought her food. Hmm I wonder why? POC please do not support this place.

Second time here was invited for the dinner on Saturday evening. I start with ambiance that place needs a face lift and some deep cleaning, floors were dirty tables were not wiped, they weren't that busy at all. Our waitress was older lady and she was rather abrupt then pleasant. I had a firecracker roll so did my girlfriends and all three came out different looking and different tasting. My husband had sashimi and they were cut up in rather thick slices then normal. Our other friend had bibimbap and he said it was ok. If you looking for very mediocre sushi and crappy service then thats the place.

Fantastic Hibachi spot in Jacksonville! Pricing is on point and atmosphere is top notch. Highly recommend!

I have heard so many people recommend this place so I decided I had to try it for my birthday dinner. I will say the call-ahead system they have in use (they have a very small venue so they don't hold tables) is not my favorite but I completely understand why they do it. That being said, the food is worth it. The appetizers were delightful, the service was great and the sushi was tasty. Standouts for me were the monkey balls, who doesn't love deep-fried mushrooms drizzled in sauce, and the baked crab roll my friend ordered, I will absolutely be ordering it next time. All in all, I will be back for sure.

Somebody is wrong on the reviews for this restaurant . This place is excellent...from the food, service and ambiance. Loved the sushi and tempura. Next time we will try the Korean barbecue. Can't wait to come back

Good place clean fried rolls are good 10/10. Fast pick times. People are very nice. Try the red jelly dip for your sushi

Had a phenomenal time. The atmosphere was great & chill. The food was excellent, great service & staff were very friendly. Definitely will return. Highly recommended

Food was great! We ordered beef bbb, 2 sushi rolls ( Mexican roll and Cherry Blossom) and Poke Bowl. Spring rolls were okay, Mexican Roll was delicious along with bbb. Service was mediocre. The poke bowl wasn't the one we thought we ordered (supposed to have crunchies, edamame pods, and ginger) but still tasty. Definitely recommend!

Place is garbage. $65 dinner order. Ginger salad? It's crappy lettuce and dressing. Nothing else. Udon noodle dish. Add chicken. NO CHICKEN. Miso soup. TWO PIECES OF TOFU, 3 pc of green onion. Had to cut up my own additional veggies and What not just to make it worth it. Will never come back here.

Today was the last straw for me with this establishment. The quality of both food and service at this restaurant has been on a sharp and consistent decline for years now. Today my carry out order contained sushi rolls with rubbery, chewy skin on the fish. On top of the fact that they put literally as much spicy sauce as actual fish in the rolls which make them so spicy they're not palatable. I draw the line at receiving literally inedible food. I will never return to this restaurant again. Management, get your shit together. This is a disgrace.

Very good sushi. Highly recommended. They also get our order right and it's delicious.

Decent place. I was surprised with the quality of food, both sushi and cooked items. Seemed of pretty good presentation and ingredients. Interior overall clean. Major con is the name and interior logos look straight from the Kabuki Japanese Restaurant west coast restaurant chain. Exterior signage tweaked slightly but still very close to the west coast company logo. No originality, I'll support other small businesses who have pride in building their brand.

This place has THE best bi bim nang myun I've had in my entire life. I will say the service can sometimes be a bit slow (especially when they are very busy), but the food is worth it. Staff is very friendly too. The galbi is almost always cooked superbly and has so much flavor. The bi bim nang myun is absolutely delectable, perfect level of spice and sweetness. The seafood bi bim bap is also delicious, love the crispy rice bits from the hot bowl. Love this place!

we always go here for every occasion and the food is a 10/10 and the service is always good, the Japanese sake is bomb too

Food wasn't good. Customer service was the worst I have ever seen. The ambiance was kabuki's. I had been going to kabuki in Farmington hill since they were originally on orchard lake near 13 Mile Road. I had gone and since kabuki moved to orchard lake & 12 mile it has just been getting worse. It's gambling with your pallet. The manager is a older man and was very rude. A word of caution.

Excellent food. Great service. Nice,clean ambiance. Definitely worth the visit McElroy heading just XR dickfirkduv j j h u jcjdnx

Ordered through Uber Eats for a stay-in date night. Barely got into eating our meal when we found hairs underneath a piece of tuna nigiri Needless to say we immediately lost our appetite and threw out what was left of our dinner. Will never order from this place again and also very disappointed with the response we received from Uber Eats who only offered to credit our account for a single piece of nigiri. Seriously WTF...

My friend and I went here yesterday for sushi. Their sushi menu was great with several selections. We ordered four different rolls - all were amazing! We also ordered the Korean short ribs which I really liked. The ribs came out on a sizzling skillet which was pretty cool along with a side of rice. We also ordered egg rolls which were not good - highly recommend not ordered them.

The menu you write on was left with a dry erase pen but you needed to use a QR code to see the menu. I had thought they offered combos but could not find them on the web menu. We got Spicy Tuna, Spicy California and an East Roll. The tempura shrimp and the caviar topping of the East roll made it very good. The Spicy Tuna was not as pretty roll, but it made up in flavor, the pepper paste or sauce was plentiful. The California roll was meh.... The table across from where we were seated was set up for delivery services to sign their tickets. The hovered a bit. Masks were required until seated. The staff was very friendly.

Three years ago I posted a photo of a bug that came out of the soy sauce bottle and then my friend convinced me to try this place again (I didn't want to) just for the same thing to happen to me yet again.. THREE YEARS LATER. The tables are sticky, the staff is rude, and above all they are DISGUSTINGLY dirty. I don't know how this place hasn't gotten shut down just look at all the reviews of the hair in food and bugs. Gross

The service was so slow and the food was not worth the wait. There was a bug that we found in our sushi and I am honestly feeling queasy from this. They take more money if you are using a credit card and just not worth the time and money. There was also dirty cups and we had to ask for new ones. DONT GO!

Still and always will be my favorite sushi place in all of Michigan! The staff is so sweet and the sushi is always extremely fresh and delicious! They also added on some beef short ribs called Kalbi on their menu and it is to die for!! I highly recommend this place

It never ceases to amaze me how businesses will ten to fall off after years of doing what they initially known for doing best. I recently did a pick-up order from here and it was so lack luster. I was disappointed in the presentation, taste and not mention my order was incorrect. I wouldn't say that I won't go back but it will probably be a minute before I do. I think that like what is akin to human nature after doing something for so long it becomes so rote it no longer is done with the same level of enthusiasm, commitment and love. When I do come back I hope the food is prepared with love.

it was so good and delish. the sushi seemed fresh and such a big range of food and sushi. this girl was nice andthey gave me extra food for free too!! also a great family place.

wife went there ate, came home and vomited continuously for hours until I took her to hospital ER.....cause....food poisoning...A black noodle dish with an egg will cost me about $1,800 for ER charge, admitting copay and percentage of the charge up to about $5,000. Partly my wife's fault, she said egg smelled and tasted funny....Was it caused by this place, can not know 100%, all I know is she was fine until she ate there and came home and got violently sick.

Food was awful. Service was just as bad. Waited 45min to get the food and when it finally came out I complained that it was dog food and wanted to switch it out with something else. They refused but after complaining for so long they decided to not bill me for it, so kudos to them for that, I guess? Also, when I say dog food, I don't mean food for dogs. A dog would not have eaten what they served me.

They used to be wayyyyy better a few years ago but the food itself ranges from ok to good. The sushi is pretty good but the crispy rice roll with spicy tuna was really poorly executed this time around. Before, the crispy rice that the spicy tuna sat on was beautiful crisp on the outside but still soft and tender on the inside. This most recent trip it was like extra crunchy hard fried rice that hurt to chew from the sharp edges. The spicy tuna on top was good quality but sooooooooo spicy it was crazy. The sushi like I mentioned early is pretty good still. The bento boxes had a fun array of goodies in them but overall nothing too memorable. This place is ok for sushi but not my favorite by any means

We dine in last monday. August 8,2022 around 8pm. The first server (korean) who took our order was very nice but the one who took my card (latina girl) charged me with a different bill. She knew that she charged me twice but didnt even said anything until I checked my bank account

This review is exclusively delivery order using Uber Food (I feel robbed with all the magnificent extra cost from them, but I can't put it against the restaurant because it's not them, it's Uber) But anyway I was in the mood to treat myself so I let it slide. I ordered Nicholas Roll, Alaskan Roll, and Raider Roll. They came bigger than I expected. Visually they look great. I love the color contrasts of my order but more than that they taste pretty good. Fish were thick and fresh. The flavors are definitely not authentic Japanese flavors, but fusion. Not that it's bad. Just different. I would put it this way: it's good but you don't find these flavors or combination in traditional Japanese sushi the way you don't actually find orange chicken in conventional chinese food restaurant. Regardless I think it was pretty good and I had an enjoyable lunch. Might pay a visit for in person dining when I can in the future

I placed an order online through their website only to find out after the order was placed that it went through Doordash with a $25 markup!! This was a takeout order, not delivery! I never would've placed the order if I had known that the menu prices were marked up on their website. I also had to wait 20 minutes longer than the quoted time because the restaurant told me that the times quoted by Doordash are not accurate. You would think that a quality restaurant like this would've figured out a better pandemic strategy by now. I only went here because my usual sushi place a block away from here was closed today. After this terrible experience, I'm not sure if I will return or not. Very unhappy. There were a lot of other very unhappy customers waiting around for their orders. With all the good sushi restaurants around Farmington Hills, I see no reason at all to go here.

IGNORE ALL THE BAD REVIEWS -- THIS PLACE IS AMAZING!! Amazing service hands down. 10/10!!! The food was amazing and the place is so cute! I came in and ordered the Fuji roll -- which was amazing btw. I also ate the bibimbap which was so authentically good. I just really enjoyed this experience as I am more than in love with Korean food which held up a very high expectation to fulfill. Will be coming back for more! Would recommend to anyone!!!!

The sushi itself was not terrible. Overpriced for the quantity of the "big roles". The food took over an hour for take out for a Sunday evening. However, they missed a role in our order and when we called back 20 minutes later, the hosts/server didn't know how to handle it. We asked if we could drive back pick up another role or have the role reimbursed. We were placed on hold for 10 minutes and then told that a manager would need to call us by the end of the night. (very strange-obviously these things happen but we wouldn't be going back 4 hours later to pick up a role...?) The manager never called us so we called back just before close. Same host/guy who passed us along to another person who didn't know what to do. The manager called us back 48 hours later..... we played phone tag and never ended up getting the role or our money back. Definitely check your take out orders but overall we will not be returning.

Kabuki is my go-to place for Japanese and Korean combination. Fresh sushi and authentic Korean Food. The Korean cold noodle called Hoe Naengmyeon is a specialty by Kabuki. This dish consists of naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles) mixed with a spicy red chili powder and topped with sliced and seasoned raw skate, and vegetables. If you like spicy Korean food, you will love it!

My favorite sushi joint in Farmington Hills!! Food is always on point, servers always friendly too!

As a recent "dutchess" of Kabuki... you would think I would be more excited about reviewing this place. But time and time again, I've been slapped with disappointment. The worst is when you spend $40 on a meal and still leave... hungry. Just ask my husband. After our dinner date, I went home and made dinner because we were still hungry. I've tried their soon du bo, assorted variety of sushi, nabeyaki udon, stone bimbimbap, fried rice and it's not good. I've given them so many chances and enough is enough. They don't even give you korean side dishes when you order korean dishes. What is this blasphemy. With so much competition around the area, it's apparent the sushi was frozen and whatever attempt at restaurant menu marketing is polvarized by their skimpy portions. I ordered a poke bowl the other week and it was an absolute joke. With Poke Poke, less than a mile from your restaurant... the owners should do their homework and actually eat at their competitors. On the outside, it looks good. But out of all the Korean/Japanese fusion places I've been to, this is another that has fallen short. My frusteration with this location was compounded when we placed a simple order and told the lady with purple hair we wanted a seperate bill for my sister in law who was running late. The waitress ended up writing all over our sushi menu... just to make sure that a shrimp tempura roll and a spicy tuna roll would be on a separate bill. I had asked if it was possible for the spicy california roll to have sauce on the side so I could share with my toddler son. Only to served spicy california roll that has a dark red sauce mixed in with their cucumber. I told another waitress what I ordered, and told her I thought it would be spicy mayo on the side. In return I got a plain california roll with this thick red paste smeared to a small soy sauce bowl. Ordered once, and the order was wrong twice. I'm not heard, so maybe you can hear me here. The lack of effort here is overwhelming. Providing an extensive menu doesn't work if you don't put quality into what you sell. And when two people order spicy tuna... it's concerning how different the color of the fish can be presented to the same table. Kabuki, I've really REALLY tried to give you a chance because you are so close to family. But it's time to visit other places in your plaza who in my opinion do a much better job than you.

My favorite Korean restaurant. Sweet and sour pork is so amazing !! Jajangmyeon (Noodles with black bean sauce) tastes good,either.

Oh dear....one of my favorite places to eat for lunch has really dropped down on my "no thanks" list. Kabuki has always been a fan favorite of mine. When I worked in Farmington Hills, I frequented Kabuki at least twice a month. The customer service was impeccable! I haven't visited in over a year, so when I arrived I immediately noticed quite a few changes. First, they installed a wine bar in the back. Cool upgrade! The normal waitresses I remember weren't there and was replaced with two other girls. I grabbed a booth and waited to be acknowledged. One of the waitresses brought soup and a pitcher of water. Great, I didn't have to ask. I ordered the lunch boat with salmon teriyaki. I waited patiently for my salad and green tea (normally it comes automatically with my order). Never came, so I asked the waitress to bring it. My order comes maybe 20 minutes later (service was slower than usual today and this was before the lunch rush). My order comes, and I immediately notice no ginger or wasabi paste. However, the other two boats on the tray for another customer had them. Odd, so I asked for some as well. My waitress took forever bringing it, so I asked another waitress, who immediately grabbed it. I still haven't received the salad or the tea. I asked again. I ate everything on my boat, except for the dried out, thick teriyaki sauce covered salmon (it tasted old and stale) before the waitress brought the salad and tea. The salad was horribly drenched in dressing, definitely not edible. I pushed it to the side and sipped my tea until it was gone. I had to wait another 15 minutes to get the bill and pay. What is going on here??? I questioned whether I was apart of some sick joke. What did I do to deserve such horrible service?? I used to love Kabuki....
