I cannot believe that I have been eating here for years and have not posted a review. This will be short, to leave you time to go to KAPOW as soon as you can, and eat, as opposed to spending too much time reading this review! Bottom line, the VIBE is appealing, even to an old man like myself. The creativity of the art and images on the walls and everywhere you loo,k including table tops and an awesome collection in the men's bathroom. KAPOW has been in Miznerf Park for close to 10 years, and loved to this larger and much more attractive space a few years back. Large outdoor eating, both adjacent to outdoor bar, and their space next to Max's.
Wait staff are usually spot on, efficient and pleasant,able to explain the menu if necessary, and follow-up as needed. All are quite young. And the bartenders are also attentive, no matter how busy it gets.
And now, the food. Well, I love their special sushi plates, and they recently expanded their sushi offerings exponentially. And have several top notch sushi makers. And they also switched out their executive chef, with more creative offerings. Love their dumplings, the pad thai is good, not like you get in other Asian style places. Their salads are fab, all fresh healthy ingredients, to which you add your protein(s), Their version of Vietnamese chicken wings is unlike any other wings you've had. I could go on and on describing various offeriungs, but you should look at posted pics and check their menu.
One point to be made, which while I understand, still find it bothersome. When last there, in January 2025, I noticed several changes in the menu offerings, higher prices, items missing, and smaller portions. When I brought to attention of our server, she looked at me and said "WELL, WE CHANGED OUR MENU WHEN SEASON STARTED..." And I looked at her and stated "SO, YOU'VE Dropped CERTAIN OFFERINGS, DROPPED OTHERS, AND MADE SOME PORTION SIZES SMALLER?? And see said "yes, its season". I half kidding said, "well, you should ask for driver's license and anyone with a Florinda driver's license should get the other menu...with more offerings and larger portion sizes.
