Kai Sushi Fusion Roll &Sake

I ordered the California, avocado, spicy tuna and Las Vegas roll. To say the sushi was underwhelming would be nice. I hate to say that I'd rather have Safeway sushi but it's close. I ordered the Luke warm miso and the steamed gyoza. The waitress was really nice and that was a highlight of the meal. The front counter is boring and overall the dining room looked unfinished. Pictures included. I will not be visiting again. Please upgrade your sushi, the competition is blowing you away.

Expensive but big portions and VERY delicious 😋 Me and a big group of friends came in for some food and they hosted us very nicely. All the food looks delicious!!! But i personally ordered the chicken katsu for $21- it has a salad, 10 pieces of crispy chicken, and a side of white rice, and a miso soup to start the course. It was a bit expensive already and then it got worse... because they have these service fees, so it ended up being $25.90🤑 so that was something... Besides that excellent place to eat food wise.

Even though I only tried 1 type of roll, it was really good. Flavorful, fresh and decent size serving. Service was great too. Very attentive and polite. I'll definitely be going back.

This is our favorite local sushi restaurant! It is small and can get busy, so you may have a wait, but It's so worth it. The short ribs are killer and all the sushi rolls are fresh and delicious. The servers are great, especially Megan. Prices are reasonable for fresh sushi.

This place is AH-mazing! The food is ***chef’s kiss***. We ate the calamari, miso soup, spicy scallop roll, black dragon roll, negi hamachi, and baja roll. Our favorites are the black dragon and negi hamachi. We will be back the next time we are in Everett!

I really love sushi, but really wasn’t a fan of anything we ordered from here. I ordered 3 rolls, nigiri, sashimi, and miso soup. This was a delivery order - we were not provided chopsticks and our hot soup was put on top of all the sushi. The soup was good, but the fish had a fishy taste, which had me questioning the freshness and was hard to look past. For this reason, we ate very little of what ended up being an expensive order. I think I would be less inclined to review this if the price had been more reasonable. In my opinion, this isn’t was a $20 roll and $29 sashimi/nigiri should be. We did a delivery order, so it’s possible we would have had a better experience in store. But based on this experience, I would hesitate to order from them again.

The sashimi salad was good, nice slices of fish on there, the rolls were a little small in size, but they give a decent amount of pieces (8 to start), the monkey brain was delicious. The service was great! They had one server on while the other was on lunch and she was killin it managing the rush.

Now I don't go for sushi all that often but a few times a year. This was a new place and it was very good. Portions were good to where we got 3 rolls for two people. I liked the large selection of sushi. I will go back soon. The dining area was small but didn't seem like an issue. We did go to an early dinner so it might get busy later on.

My son and I were in town and he was craving sushi. He could eat sushi for every meal. Honestly, we picked Kai Sushi for two reasons...the star rating and my son's name is Kai. So we gave it a go. We weren't disappointed. Fresh sushi and the service was great. Enjoy your visit!

Pretty solid sushi joint to visit. Not a whole lot to say. It's a pretty small place in Everett. Staff is okay and the food is alright. The price vs quality of food is a tad off in my opinion. The bathroom is in a relatively odd spot of the restaurant. Overall everything is okay.

It wasn't bad but also not great. If you have a sushi craving it's alright. Got a deep fried roll (Alaska and it was ok) got the potato croquets those were good and got shrimp tempura, they were okay.

So happy to have found this cozy sushi spot in Colby! I eat a lower carb diet, and am obsessed with this crab cucumber wrap! It's so refreshing. They have a great menu to choose from, fast and friendly service and a nice ambiance.

This is a most stop sushi place in Everett. Service was quick and easy. Small restaurant but sushi bar was packed. Really enjoyed all the unique sushi options and going back to try more!!!

Please do not waste a dollar at Kai. Why can't downtown Everett get a decent Japanese restaurant. After being disappointed by the quality to price ratio of sushi. I decided to give Beef Sukiyaki a try. I frequently order this at Japanese restaurants and is always the same ingredients, not at Kai, was at best a 12$ grocery store lunch. Do not waste your money!

It a small sushi place in downtown Everett. No wait for dinner @ 530pm on Tuesday. The nigiri tasted okay - not the best flavor or quality. Nothing special about my salmon roll but it was presented nicely. My water cup had an odd smell, so that bothered me during dinner. But the staff were very attentive and kind. There wasn't anything extraordinary about this place. It did get busy an hour later. There is 90 min parking out front. I wouldn't come here again...I recommend Wild Wasabi in Lynnwood instead.

I'm happy I came here on my lunch break! It was really good and came out freshly made. I tried the WA roll and shrimp lover roll, the salmon sashimi was like butter! My server was kind, the space is clean and modern.

In short These folks have a great menu and sake list. Service is warm and friendly and right on point. And sushi in Everett is a tougher racket all the time. In long There's a whole stretch of places worth checking out just along Colby here. I scored rock-star parking since it was slightly before dinnertime yet yesterday. You roll in to a pleasantly-dim space, walls are dark, lights are low. Booths to the right, banquette seating to the left. I got there just in time to have them pull one table off on its own--they had just cleared a 10-top that took half the banquette tables, and another 10-top was still going strong, talking, laughing, and eating. This place must get mobbed before Tips games. It was pretty crowded yesterday and it was barely 5. They have the usual hot appetizers, and a decent list of a few dozen cuts of fish. Classic rolls, modern rolls too. Basically everything everyone thinks of when they think of covering all the bases at a sushi spot, and that's it--and that's all I need pretty often. I got the Dassai "Otter Festival" sake, which had tons of character. Really nice one. The tako yaki were blazing steaming billowing hot, even after resting a few minutes. Tasty. Easily worth repeats but probably not the #1 version of this dish I've had. I'll say I'd be happy to drive back up there and get it again right now, though. The sashimi omakase was a nice mix of tunas, octopus, salmon, a couple other things, and a dab of uni. Plus plenty of shredded radish and sliced cukes. All good fish, and tasted great. I loved all 3 of the kids who stopped by the table, too. They kept the water full, and everything from the kitchen came out lickety split. They were friendly and warm without taking too long at the table--very charming staff here. I was out the door for under a hundred, after drinking their best sake and eating over a dozen pieces of sashimi. Excellent value. I've been hearing great things about this place for a couple years and it's awesome to have it in the rotation now.

If you're looking for a sushi spot in Everett, this is it. The specialty rolls are where it's at! Baja roll was my favorite! I would actually recommend the specialty rolls over the sashimi or nigiri. The gyoza were probably some of the best I've ever had and the grilled short ribs were amazing. We licked clean our plates - amazing food, amazing staff!

Amazing dinner family out at Kai Sushi Fusion Started off with potstickers and calamari (my fav) We had Crab cucumber wrap (Super delicious), Monkey brain roll (least fav), Spicy tuna cucumber roll, Kappamaki roll, & Crunch roll! Friendly staff and warm atmosphere!!!

Had lunch with co-workers. Service was on top of things. Food was great. Salmon sashimi was fresh. Going back for lunch soon.

The sushi was amazing and very fresh! Great little place in Everett and we will go back.

Great food and fantastic service! Favorite spot in Everett and I'd go here every day if I could.

I absolutely love the salmon nigiri! It hits the spot. This is going to be my new go to spot for some sushi in the area! Come check them out.

I was craving some sushi and Kai was on my list, so I stopped in yesterday for lunch and it did NOT disappoint. Just to keep things simple, I ordered their 6-pc nigiri lunch special, which also came with a spicy tuna roll and a steaming hot bowl of miso soup. It was the perfect lunch, and quite the bargain at just $19.99! The sushi was super fresh, and the proportion of rice to fish was perfection. The service was quick and my food came out fast. There weren't many people in there for lunch when I was there, but it looks like they do a huge takeout business. I really liked the ambiance, too - it was dark with soft lighting. Perfect spot for date night! Parking was easy, too, as there was plenty of free 90-minute street parking within steps of the restaurant. I will definitely be back here to satisfy a future sushi craving! Can't wait to try some of their more innovative rolls, too.

This is one of two of my favorite sushi places. Sometimes the seaweed salad doesn't always turn out how I like it. But I am always wanting to go there for sushi because I know they have several items I love.

Unfortunately the few times I come here, i'm soooo hungry that I don't take the time for pictures. The rolls are just sooo delicious. One of these days im going to dine in and take my time. My favorites are spicy tuna on crunchy rice, baked salmon roll and Washington roll. Really looking forward to try more! This place is fantastic

Delicious sushi, good service, and cool vibes. No complaints here! My go to when in town

Best sushi around always fresh and employees are very nice. And they are always willing to take a specific ingredient out, if not wanted

Food was ok not the best sushi I have ever had service was pleasant.... Its in downtown Everett

Hands down the best sushi spot in Everett. Tiny restaurant and very limited seatings, so be prepared to wait. I will say though that they get you in pretty quick. We ordered, apps, beer, and sushi! The service was excellent and our food came out fairly quickly. I was pleased that we didn't have to wait long. The spicy tuna crispy rice was by far my favorite small plate. It was sooo good! The calamari reminded me to burger kings onion rings. They are Panko battered versus tempura battered rings. They were extra crispy served with spicy Mayo. We got the tempura yam roll, California, crunch roll, and spicy tuna tempura. Everything we got was sooo good. I didn't get a lot of fresh fish sushi because I don't on my first attempt at a sushi spot, so I can't review that. But boy was everything so delicious and yummy!!!

This is the second time I came here. The first time it was around 8:48 pm and they told me they were closed. But the schedule says they closed at 9:00 pm. Not a big deal but wanted folks to know so you come at 8:50 and expect to get seated/served. Second time I was here. Sushi is Subpar. The rice was mushier than normal. The shrimp is smaller than Sushi places that are more high end though this place does have a high end pricing. They made a mistake on my order but quickly remedied it. The place is clean. Service was quick but they seem to be in a rush to get you out.

Came here for lunch today to peruse the lunch special. Lots of good options available to suit a variety of sushi cravings in. I got the chefs choice four piece, with the spicy tuna roll. All of which was served at the correct temperature and was very fresh with good flavors. Miso soup to start, comes with the dish and had a nice mix of tofu, seaweed and a rich miso broth. If you're in the neighborhood and are craving some sushi I would recommend Kai sushi, especially for the lunch specials!

Sushi was fantastic. Prices were a little higher than what I expected. Service was fast and friendly. Location was super clean.

We've eaten here several times. Sushi is always fresh and tastes great, plus the staff is amazing!

I love this place. Sushi quality is pretty good and the service is fantastic. Maybe the fish temperature can be slightly colder? Idk but the fish on my nigiri was too warm. Like lukewarm temperature. I am not sure how it suppose to be..? But just feel like it would be nice if it was slighly cooler

YUM. Tried new food and some old favorites, food I really liked. The service is good and staff is really nice. It's a very quiet place and the atmosphere is calm. When you walk in, the place is very fancy for a smaller building.

Decided to try this Sushi place instead of our go-to. We are not hardcore sushi peeps, more like California roll lightweights. We ordered California, Crunch, and Miami Heat. First impressions are: interior is pretty plain but nice and seems decently clean. Exterior does not look real inviting... lots of papers/notices on windows which haven't been cleaned in a long time. Most importantly, the service was good, fast, and the sushi was fresh and awesome. Very little wasabi included on the plates. :-( prices were reasonable. We will be back.

Quality sushi all around. They have a LOT of different rolls and menu items. Their takoyaki is the best in Everett area that I've tried The plates I'd say are on the smaller side and packed with flavor.

Best custom rolls I've ever had. This restaurant was packed the whole time I was there - the locals seem to know that this is THE place to get sushi in Everett and within a 30-mile radius. We were seated quickly (arrived by 5:30 mid-week), but there were groups waiting to be seated outside by 6pm. The wait staff was quick and polite. The food came out fast and fresh. Miso soup was good, as was the Pork/Chicken Gyoza. But the rolls.. 10/10.

Have been going here for years and they are on point every time. Fresh and delicious rolls, pleasant wait staff in a cozy atmosphere. Can't go wrong with Kai!

Small dining location with delicious food! The sashimi was fresh and delicious. The rolls were so good. We had a group of 6 and the service was top notch. Definitely my new go to place in Everett. We had the heart attack roll, the Philly roll, the sashimi sampler, the chicken appetizer (can't remember the name of it) and we left very full and satisfied.

We stopped by after a beautiful day on the water and ordered a bit of everything. Chased it down with an ice cold Sapporo. See you real soon!

Stopped by Kai Sushi after discovering another sushi spot was closed ~for the holiday weekend~ but was pleasantly surprised! We're adventurous, so tried several of the rolls, along with appetizers, and was not disappointed. The salmon (sake) nigiri was a nice, thick cut of salmon and the meat was fresh. The croquettes were crispy and delicious coupled with their spicy Mayo. All of our rolls came out quickly and beautifully- my favorite probably being the Kai and the Heart Attack. Rolls did not skimp on the fish, but weren't too overwhelming of a bite. Would definitely go again!

Wow !! This place is amazing!! The food was really good. We had chicken katsu which was tender and moist. There were so many different kinds of sushi to eat. I can't wait to go back and try some more. The waitresses were fast and friendly. Cute little restaurant, with a very nice ambiance.

If you have an autistic child, do not come here! My child was playing with a couple of the saucers, not throwing them or anything destructive. One of the workers (not our waitress) very rudely and without warning, came by and snatched the saucers and told my child not to play with it. As most autistic children do, my child started having a meltdown. Before I could lose my cool, we asked for boxes, took our food, and paid the bill. We will not be coming back. Life with an autistic child is challenging, so we rarely go out to eat. But sometimes, we would like to experience the things that normal people do. That rude woman reminded me how there are grown adults out there that have no grace!! Maybe next time, have some patience, they're not bad kids like you assume they are and parents like us are trying our very best. People like you do not make it easier. On a good note, our waitress (pink hair) was very kind and apologized to us. This review isn't a reflection on her or the food.

Everytime I try to order sushi to go, the phones magically stop working. I've mentioned this to the staff multiple times that there's an error code. They have shrugged it off like it's not the case. Please, if you have a business make sure your phones work!

How is this place not busier!?! We came in for a late lunch and were seated instantly. The server was super helpful. I wasn't too hungry, but I needed some flavor. I ordered the crispy Alaska rolls. It was everything I love about sushi. The ingredients were fresh, the jalapeños were the perfect level of heat and the creamy eel sauce added extraordinary flavor. The crisp of the tempura was a great contrast to the avocado's creaminess. This was made with great pride! Such a great meal! I can't wait to get back to try more rolls.

Great food, fast service, AMAZING menu!! There was a great assortment of options to choose from and the food was freshly prepared to order!

Had a really pleasant dining experience here! We ordered the jalapeño poppers, spicy tuna on crispy rice, sashimi sampler, sake sashimi, the Washington roll and miso soups. Everything was great! The sashimi was so delicate and fresh. We usually ask for wild sockeye but forgot to this time around and were served farmed salmon but it still tasted surprisingly buttery. Highly recommend the yellowfin tuna sashimi and the jalapeño poppers, which are stuffed with cream cheese and tuna and deep fried with a yummy tempura batter. We also ordered an unfiltered sake which was incredibly creamy and the right amount of sweetness. Highly recommend this spot and will be back!

Met a friend for lunch. Was a great spot, food was excellent, service was Really good.

We really love the quality of the food here but unfortunately we just cannot love the service. Tonight was our 4th attempt and we left with another disappointing experience. The first time we waited 20 min for someone to take our order. The 2nd time we attempted to place a take out order and was told that they weren't doing takeout orders after 5 pm.. it was 5:05 and it was not busy. The 3rd time the waitress was incredibly rude and never came back to fill our water or check on us plus they were out of 3 ingredients which eliminated several of the rolls on the menu. Tonight we attempted to place a pickup order.. we began calling 50 min before close and the phones were disconnected. We show up 30 min to close and they are closed. No note on the door, no post on their website or social media. I can understand facing challenges occasionally but facing this many in just a few months is enough to make us not want to attempt coming back. Which is a true shame because their food is outstanding.

The wasabi roll. Just trust me! This place is my all time favorite sushi spot. They have a great saki selection as well. Staff is quick and polite, environment is welcoming and clean. They have other dishes aside from sushi that are equally as amazing! Vegetarian and vegan friendly! You can go light or heavy here and you'll find that everything you truly is delicious!

Small shop that seems to be focused on the food more than investing in the space. Which is fine, not dingy or anything and certainly clean. Food was really good but not mind blowing. I'd say a 7-8/10 out of the sushi restaurants I've been to. Certainly scratches the itch when you have it. But coming from the Midwest I can get the same quality back home. Maybe I just had higher expectations being closer to the ocean? Would still recommend.

My Fiancé and I have been to Kai a few times and it is our goto for sushi in Everett. They have solid veggie rolls for the vegetarians out there (like my fiancé) but they do great rolls and nigiri for the rest of us too. Last night we grabbed two cream cheese cucumber rolls, a cali roll, an eel roll and the veggie gyoza and tempura. All were delicious. This was our first time doing carryout from Kai. For our dine in experience we have had good food and good service. The wait staff has been friendly, courteous, and touches base at the table with the right frequency. Drinks are refilled quickly and the food is never left waiting at the counter too long to be served. My usual gauge of a sushi joint is whether it looks like a hole in the wall or not. If it does that's usually a good sign. Kai doesn't give that vibe too hard but it also doesn't feel like there was a huge amount of effort in the decor. The goal is clearly good food. If I had one complaint it is that it can be hard to get in. I haven't figured out the pattern but some nights it is packed out with an hour wait. Other nights one can walk right in. Kai never seems dead so I wonder if a bigger space would work for them if they wanted to grow.

Absolutely adore this place. Unassuming. Outside with plenty of seating inside. Quick service and the food us excellent!! I did think the karaage was bland so not my favorite. They have steamed pot stickers which I absolutely love! There specialty rolls are awesome. Can't remember all the names but Miami Heat and the Boss stood out as favorites. Highly recommend!!

Went out with my mum, we both work in food service so we understand being slow when packed, but that wasn't the case, two tables of couples were already sitting when we got there, took 7 minutes for them to sit us (4 people were working) and then sat down with our menus and we didn't receive any water or recognition from two servers, 15 minutes we sat there not one of them came to give us water or take orders, not packed. Just busy with online orders. Clearly this business takes priority for online orders more then their in person customers.

Great sushi and great service keeps us coming back to support an Everett gem. The quality is consistent and there such a good variety. Love the smoky, rainbow and the list goes on and on.
