We had a big group and a reservation. We couldn't be seated until more than half our group was present. Three from our group of 12 were running late and we were told we'd be taken back to the lobby if they were further delayed. Food was buttery, salty, but not bad. The cooks and servers are great. More of an entertainment experience than dining. It was still an enjoyable night out. Definitely worth experiencing once.

What a great dining experience! The manager, I think his name was Madison, was so welcoming and hospitable! It’s nice to be greeted with a smile when you walk into a place for the first time. Food and show were great too! Will definitely be back!

Everytime I come here its a fun experience! Nice waitresses and cooks. The food is delicious and I like the options avaliable. Me and the rest of my family got 2 different types of meat and the cook made sure they were separated for me.

We made reservations for a party of six to celebrate a couple of family birthdays on a Friday night. The two ladies at the hosting station were not very friendly and very non-communicative. Although we were on time for our reservation, we still had to wait about ten minutes and were not told anything about our status. We had to ask them two separate times what the hold up was or how much longer we would have to wait. Mind you, they were not very busy and there were plenty of open tables, not sure what the hold up was but neither host member openly communicated what was happening. We waited off to the side while they did nothing. Our waitress was just ok and rarely checked up on us. She disappeared for long periods of time which was annoying. We asked her for things and she forgot two different times and we would end up having to ask a separate employee (for example, we needed one more plate, needed more napkins, or needed more water). The only positive….. MOZART!!! He. Was. Absolutely. Amazing.!!!!!! The best chef!!!! He turned our frown upside down and had us constantly entertained and laughing. He was such a joy and very energetic and you can tell he loves his job! The table next to us had such a boring chef who was barely interacting with his table so we were so glad to have gotten Mozart. I give him 1000/100 stars!

We had a great experience! The manager, Paul, greeted us individually and checked in on us multiple times. He was very nice and genuinely interested in us having a good experience. The new decor really brightens up the restaurant - a great time all around! Thanks for the hospitality and the great food!

I enjoyed my time here. It was my first time and it wasn’t too crowded, our server was nice and accommodating. The drinks were amazing! The chef was hilarious. My wife and I were thoroughly impressed. The food was excellent. Our meals were slightly expensive but well worth every dollar as coming to this restaurant will be a moment to remember!

What a great dinner! Food was great. Mozart made our daughter’s birthday wonderful. He was so much fun and really made her feel special the whole time. Will be back for sure!

If you're looking for an extraordinary dining experience, Kanki is definitely the place to try!! From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by an immaculate and inviting atmosphere. The highlight of our night was undoubtedly the incredible performance by our chef, Hector. He masterfully cooked our meal on a massive grill, all while dazzling us with impressive flair and tricks, including spectacular bursts of fire and juggling knives. I brought my parents along, and they had the best time of their lives, thoroughly enjoying every moment. Despite my seafood allergy, the staff went above and beyond to ensure that my food was safely prepared, which truly impressed me. The manager, Laura, even took the time to visit our table and check on our experience. The food was so delicious that I forgot to take pictures of it, but I did manage to capture some snapshots of our fantastic entertainment. If you're looking for a night of entertainment or want to impress someone special, I highly recommend Kanki. This place has it all – amazing food, top-notch service, and an unforgettable show!

I have it a lower score bc food toook too long, almost an hour waiting for entree of steak and shrimp. I had to remind them, it might just be they were missing staff.

If I could give more stars, I would. My wife picked dinner since I had picked the movie for our date night. This was my first time ever at a hibachi restaurant and everything was just perfect. Our server was very friendly and didn’t miss a beat. Our chef was so smooth with his tools and did some cool tricks. The food was AMAZING!!! We will be back soon.
