Came for Happy Hour with some friends-it was 4 of us. Their HH consist of certain items all for $7. The options to me were good value as I ordered several things of the menu plus paid full price for the maki sushi. The only thing I didn't like is that you must sit at the bar for the HH. Doesn't work if you have a group of 3-4. But luckily staff was accommodating and allowed us to sit at the booth near the bar. 2 hours free garage parking then $15 afterwards. I'll be back-my bill was $73 and that included the automatic gratuity. I had a lot of food lol. read more

The Service: 5-star customer service. They really take care of you here. Perfect for a date night or a fun girls' night out. Don't forget to charge your phone, because you're going to want to take a million photos! read more

Ooh baby no. I do not need to come back here. All aesthics super cute and cool looking restaurant. I liked my drink the ube espresso martini was pretty fire. I was here for an birthday celebration. I opted to order the 3 course meal for $65 which included an appetizer l, main course and dessert. I made the poor decision to order the sea bass and no. It was actually disgusting. It came covered in a miso sauce but it was not good. It tasted very fishy too. Now I had ordered the crispy thai shrimp as my appetizer those were good. For dessert I ordered the chocolate peanut butter something. I don't remember what it was called...first it was tiny, secondly it was tiny as hell and very mediocre. I didn't really feel like I got my money's worth. Also there is limited street parking and a garage and valet $10 for parking it in gen pop $20 to park it in the front. read more

Had such a great experience at Haii Keii tonight! The food and atmosphere were amazing, but our waitress Kim truly made the night. She was so friendly, attentive, and on top of everything without ever making us feel rushed. She gave great recommendations and made sure we had everything we needed the entire time. Customer service like hers really stands out. We'll definitely be back! read more

In my 8 months of living in Texas, specifically Houston, this has become my favorite restaurant. From the decor to the food, drinks, and service, everything is on point. The only downside is that it is slightly overpriced if we compare portion size to price. When you go, GET THE SHRIMP! I can't wait to come back for happy hour. Just keep in mind there are only two bathroom stalls and automatic gratuity is included. read more

Not only is the vibe on point, but the cocktail program is stellar, the food delicious and inventive and most of all, they have one of THE best happy hours in Houston. It lasts until 7:30! Finally, a HH for the working person. I have had excellent service every time I have visited. All of these ingredients have made Haii Keii a weekly must on our dinner rotation. read more

Celebrated my sister's birthday here! Such a nice restaurant for a special occasion ! Service was amazing. We were a party of 10 girls & our waitress took amazing care of us! Food- we all settled on the holiday pre-fixe menu & was able to try a bit of everything. I started off with the thai chile shrimp, had the seabass as my main (partnered with Mac & cheese), and ended with the ube cheesecake ! So delicious and no complaints! They went above & beyond to make my sister's birthday special by having it flash across their special screens - what a nice touch! read more

This place was beautiful! Better than expected. Perfect for date night. We went to enjoy the $7 happy hour menu and were were not disappointed! We just went crazy and ordered almost everything. The pork belly was amazing and crispy. Thai chili shrimp, omg! The short rib tacos were awesome! Wagyu burger was really juicy. These were my top four items! I got a caviar cone just for the experience and it was amazing. I thought the presentation was so cute! Next we had a spicy tuna hand roll which was ok. And the bahn me roll was decent as well. For the drinks, please try the ube espresso martini! It was so good and creamy and this gorgeous purple color! I adored it! We also got a red lantern which was good as well. Really enjoyed this restaurant and will be back. Our host was kind, restrooms were clean, our bus person kept our water filled and table clean the entire time! Amazing service! Waitress did take a bit long coming back to check in with us but was still very friendly and so sweet. Really really enjoyed the lighting and intimacy of the tables. Please check them out read more

Would give 5 stars if the prices were just a little cheaper I was honestly very impressed by the food. I don't think a single thing I tasted was bad. For the holiday prix fixe menu I opted for the hamachi, the seabass, and the ube cheesecake. The second course options are solely protein so our server asked us if we wanted any sides so we opted for the wagyu fried rice. We also got the murukami roll and shishito peppers to share. Literally everything was super yummy. The ube cheesecake also came with a scoop of ice cream on the side which I felt made the dessert amazing I also tried a couple different cocktails, both of which were also very good. The vibe is definitely very dark/neon aesthetic. The music is a little loud but not too loud to where you can't have a conversation. The attire is definitely up there - thinking skirts, nice pants, or dresses for girls. There is also 2 hours of free parking in the attached garage read more

Ambiance: Super sexy. Dress to impress. Food: Tuna poke taco 7/10. Super small even for me. Oysters: 5/10. Didn't have hot sauce and they were super basic. I'm not hard to please in regard to oyster but it was a no for me. Filet Mignon: 9/10. Super flavorful Cheesecake: 10/10. Absolutely delicious!!! Drink: Spring in Nagano: 8/10 Service: Excellent. Felt special the whole time. read more

Haii Keii - Tuna Poke Taco - Sushi Bars Near Me - Houston, Texas

My wife and I had date night and the ambiance was perfect. It's a sexy place to bring your date, vibe and hang at the bar, or have a ladies night honestly. I could see my wife and her sisters going for a girls night. Our server was excellent and very attentive, providing great recommendations. This place is pricey, so just be prepared. Korean short rib taco - 10/10.. it was flavorful and the spicy sauce was magnificently done. I highly recommend getting this. The magpie - 10/10...beautifully blended. I loved every sip of it. It wasn't too Smokey, wasn't too fruity, it was just right Ronin Roll 9/10- it was absolutely it delicious. The only downfall was that it kept falling apart at the bottom. K11 1/10 - this drink tasted like medicine. According to the server it is a fan favorite. Could just be me, so give it a try and see if you agree. Thai Chili Shrimp 10/10 - flavorful with a hint of sweet to it. Filet mignon 10/10 - beautifully prepared at the correct temperature (Medium). It was tender and flavorful. They give you a sauce to dip it in and honestly, you don't really need it. read more

Wish they had more vegan options (entrees) because it's a really cute place. Japanese inspired restaurant infused with some techno nightclub vibes. It's an intimate space but stays packed. There's a bar area as well as table seating. Lots of neon lighting around. The bartender took great care of me. Their menu is very limited so don't come here looking to grub down; it's more of small plate/aesthetic situation. I tried their lychee mocktail champagne- exquisite but very tiny. Was not expecting it to be so small. Also tried some of their apps including the eggplant & spicy edamame. Both very flavorful but too heavy handed on the soy for my liking. I think this is a great place for a night out with the girls or perhaps a first date. read more

Had a reservation for 4ppl. The restaurant called me twice the day of to verify that we would be attending. One of the guest couldn't attend last minute so I let them know it may be 3 instead of 4 ppl. They were adamant about the 15mins grace period and how the table would be given away if we were not there before that time. All guest were present by 8:03 less than 5mins. I communicated that twice and we literally stood directly across from the hostess stand. After an additional 15 mins one of the hosts asked if we were all here. Seriously?! as she looked the other two ladies directly in the eyes. She then became very snarky saying we could sit at a table that is too small or wait for another table having desert. Not only did she have a tone but also rolling her eyes. I'm not sure if she was having a bad day but leave it at the door honey. After waiting an additional 10 mins she said the table was being cleaned. Mind you there's a 2 hour validated parking but at this point we've wasted 25 mins. By the time we were sat for our 8pm reservation it was 8:37. Thankfully our server was amazing!! Knowledgeable and friendly. He truly made up for the terrible introduction we had to the establishment. The food was top tier and timed out well for restaurant weeks. We will likely return for happy hour read more

Came in on a Sunday night and didn't realize their rolls are half off!! So worth it. The drinks here are delicious, my favorite was definitely the ube espresso martini. We also got the salmon belly, crispy thai chili shrimp, chilled east coast oysters, drunken noodles, the murakami roll, and the ronin roll. The salmon belly was so yummy, I loved how fatty and melt-in-your-mouth it was. The east coast oysters were large and fresh. The drunken noodles were alright, a bit too salty in my opinion. Both rolls were good, but I preferred the ronin roll over the murakami, The murakami was good, but there was a bit too much butter in my opinion, I did not like the oily taste in my mouth. Overall, a great experience. read more

We had dinner here for the first time mid-week. We dined, party of 4 on Houston Restaurant Week menu. We were greeted right away. The decor of bright neon light and wall projections kept me distracted. Not to mention the huge cocktail menu that I could spend some time studying. I opted for a mocktail, the lychee champagne. It's refreshingly good but really small. I probably could've drank 3 more of them. My friends all ordered some other drinks from the menu but indicated that they were too sweet. I do not recall the name of the drinks they ordered. For the second round, they ordered normal drinks that were not on the house cocktails. Let's talk about the food. Although we ordered from the HRW menu, we still opted to share all our dishes family style. We tried: * truffle fries - side order not on HRW menu, good but we didn't need it, more than enough food for the three courses. * Mac and cheese - good, nothing to dislike * Thai chile shrimp - pretty large portion for HRW menu * pork belly - the cut is a little too think for my taste but flavor is really good * truffle himachi - yum yum * red snapper with a Thai coconut Beurre Blanc - good! * 6 oz seared filet mignon - this was on the dryer side, weird for a filet * 6 oz Rosewood Premier Texas Wagyu NY strip - was not impressed with the presentation of both steaks. I thought this was just OK. * ube cheesesteak- very good * chocolate bombe almond toffee - don't skip out on ordering this dessert! Service was great except for the drinks. We were done with our appetizers before our drinks showed up. There appears to be only one bartender for the entire restaurant, expect to wait for your bar drinks. Valet parking is available for a fee, not complimentary. Self-parking is validated by the restaurant for the first two hours by scanning the restaurant barcode, pay for parking after initial 2. read more

I came here this past Friday with a group of girlfriends for HRW, and we had such a fun and delicious experience at Haii Keii. The vibe is bold and playful with its glowing red tables and stylish presentation, definitely a place that makes dining feel like an event. For my first course, I ordered the Thai Chile Shrimp, which was perfectly crispy with just the right amount of heat and tang. For my 2nd I got the Saikyo Miso Chilean Sea Bass, and honestly, this was the star of the night. The fish was buttery, flaky, and melt-in-your-mouth tender, sitting in a silky sauce that had both richness and balance. For dessert, I went with the Ube Cheesecake. It was light but still creamy, not overly sweet, and paired beautifully with the ice cream. A perfect way to end the meal. Our table also tried some sushi rolls and cocktails, and everything was beautifully presented (gold flakes on sushi, cocktails with fun garnishes) and matched the elevated yet playful atmosphere. At $55 per person for the HRW menu, the value was excellent given the quality of the dishes and presentation. The staff was attentive without rushing us, which made it a great spot for a girls' night. Overall: Chic party vib , gorgeous plating, delicious food and a memorable HRW menu. I'll definitely be back to explore the regular menu! read more

Right across the "street" from Confessions, Haii Keii is a stunner. I've been wanting to try this place for a while and finally got some time blocked off in my calendar thanks to Texas Young Professionals. We had our August networking event here last night and had a wonderful time. If you see the sign outside, you know they're not playing with their dress code. That works for me! Haha. CHIC & COCKTAIL ATTIRE REQUIRED. Boom! They're "all about great energy and elevated experiences" --so keep it stylish, people! Upon arrival, I met Jarred, the venue host and manager to ensure the evening would go smoothly. Let's talk ambiance - The colors inside are so magnetic and sharp, you don't feel like you're in Houston anymore. Loud teal and turquoise neons and bright cherry reds line every room and they're so electric! We were in the private rooms upstairs, and they were the perfect size to host a networking event. Both rooms are pretty linear yet spacious and out guests had a wonderful time. I tried a few items off the happy hour menu: (Monday through Friday from 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM.) **Our event was from 5:30-8pm - edamame with spicy chile garlic sauce 9/10 I mean, you can't REALLY mess up edamame, amirite?? -fried pork belly with sesame chili sauce, apple-cucumber slaw 8/10 I would've really loved these more of they were more tender and spicy. The glaze on top was delicious though! -Spicy tuna roll with tuna, shichimi, cucumber, avocado, and smelt roe 10/10 Absolutely delicious. You only get one, so make it count. Flavors blend together beautiful. -Vegetable roll with cucumber, avocado, scallions, pickled daikon, pickled benbock, kalware sprouts, and shiso 9/10 They give you quite a few pieces and I was satisfied. Flavors were yummy- crisp yet decadent, and it was way more than I bargained for for just some veggies. I really wanted to try the brown butter cake but our server advised against it. He said it's better if I have a full meal THEN have the dessert. So... I'm booking a reservation and coming back VERY soon. read more

Absolutely loved this place. Best friend and I came for a girls night during HRW and we would definitely come again on a normal night. Our server Jacob was amazing and attentive all night. Aside from the appetizer, main entree, and dessert, we also ordered drinks. Both food and drinks were delicious. The Thai chili shrimp was a favorite! They definitely do not hold back on the drinks. Ambience in general is aesthetically pleasing for photos and just to enjoy throughout the night whether for a date or a girls night. They do enforce the chic and cocktail dress code so make sure to check the site for details. Can't wait to come back! read more

If you're looking for a vibey & chic Asian restaurant, Haii Keii easily meets that aesthetic. Dim & sophisticated setting with creative Japanese artwork throughout. That said, they do seem to have a dress code! The food was delicious and our waitress was knowledgeable. Highly recommend trying out different sushi and sharing & we enjoyed every roll we ordered! Biggest negative was the parking situation here (the garage parking was very confusing, so plan accordingly. they validate for parking be sure to show your ticket read more

Made Resy ahead of time! Jacie was our waitress and she was pretty knowledgeable on the menu and made great suggestions for both drinks and food. I thought they had very pretty drinks and very unique Asian flavored ones. I ended up with the Shaketon which was their take on a margarita. I was able to replace the blanco tequila with reposado instead. It was more on the lighter side of alcohol. We were able to still experience their "HRW" menu which included 3 courses. I started off with the Truffle Hamachi (not over powering and the Hamachi was pretty fresh). For my main, I got the 6 oz Rosewood Premier Texas Waygu NY Strip (tender and seasoned nicely). And ended the dessert with their Ube Cheesecake (which was nice and light, not super pungent ube flavor, overall good and came with some vanilla ice cream). My friend also opted for the 3 course menu in which she chose the Thai Chile Shrimp (crunchy and saucy), the Murakimi Roll (King Krab x A5 Waygu x Caviar x Gold Flakes, talk about a bougie roll. It came with this butter sauce which you would take each piece and dip it in and it was tasty). And for dessert, is she got the Chocolate Bombe Almond Toffee (a bit too rich for my palette). For extra food, we also got some nigiri pieces (Sake-Toro, Chutoro, Engawa and Hirame). Favorite deff was the Chutoro and Sake-Toro, melted in your mouth. Rice was a little mushy though. We also got the Broccolini as a side dish and it had a nice soy garlic flavor to it. This restaurant is deff "Picture-Esque" as I called it. Lots of instagram worth pics/videos. Restrooms - Individual Stalls, overall clean and had fancy napkins. Parking - ***URGENTTTT*** YOU MUST VALIDATE YOUR PARKING IN THE GARAGE within 20 min of arriving! SCAN SCAN SCAN the QR code in the garage next to the elevators and it'lll be about $6.95. Apparently they recognize your license plate and that's how they validate your parking. They don't give you a parking ticket anymore to take with you. The restaurant will validate your parking as well. Just make sure you screen shot your payment just as back up for yourself. read more

I went to Haii Keii on a Sunday night for Houston Restaurant Weeks and it was packed. The restaurant has a dress code listed on their website as "dress to impress." From reviews, I thought they were pretty strict, but when I arrived there were people waiting at the host stand in t-shirts and sweats, so it doesn't seem to be heavily enforced. Once inside, the space is large, stylish, and very vibey. We were seated upstairs and got to enjoy a great view of the lively atmosphere. For HRW, I ordered the truffle hamachi, the filet mignon, and cheesecake. Just a heads-up--the HRW steak doesn't include sides, so I added broccolini and potatoes. The broccolini ended up being my favorite thing I ate! My friend had the Thai chili shrimp, which were amazing, and I also tried a bite of their sea bass--it was tasty and cooked perfectly. My partner ordered the Hamachi Roll with king crab, A5 wagyu, Kaluga caviar, and gold flakes. The sushi chef personally brought it out and lit it at the table, which made it feel extra special. It was also our friend's birthday, and they put a moving "Happy Birthday" banner across the restaurant, which was such a unique and fun touch. Since it was so busy, the bar and kitchen were a little slow, and food took a while to come out. That said, our server was very attentive and made sure we were taken care of. Overall, Haii Keii has an incredible vibe, great food, and some really memorable touches. I'd definitely come back, especially for a night out or a celebration. read more

My friend and I tried this restaurant for Houston Restaurant Week. We saw reviews on TikTok and decided to try it. This place is located a few doors down from Pinstripes, but on the corner. There is garage parking, you can valet or pay to park. Haii Keii validates parking within 2hrs of dining. We made a reservation through Open Table a week before our intended visit. We received reminders throughout the week and the day of for our reservation. Once in the restaurant, it was dark and intimate. The hostess was kind and welcoming. I loved the decor throughout the two story restaurant. The service was great. Our water glasses were never empty, as someone was walking by constantly refilling them. The waiters would go over each meal as it was delivered before we enjoyed our dish. Our waiter Oliver was knowledgeable and kind. Everything on the menu is a la carte. We ordered the following: Thai chile shrimp 10/10 Tuna poke tacos 8/10 Saikyo Miso Chilean Sea Bass 8/10 Gulf Red Snapper with a Thai Coconut Beurre Blanc 10/10 Ube Cheesecake 8/10 Chocolate Bombe Almond Toffee 8/10 If you're looking for a luxury date night, girls night out, or solo date, I'd recommend this restaurant. I was told on the next visit, to get the ribeye and the crab/garlic fried rice. I will definitely return to try both dishes. read more

Came here for a private birthday dinner and I was NOT disappointed. The ambience of the restaurant is so sexy and modern. I arrived early so I had to hit the bar for a cocktail. The bartender made a show of making my drink, he was amazing and so hospitable. When our party arrived we went upstairs and sat at a gorgeous table. Loved the table sitting and the vibe; dark, moody, sexy. We had a prix fixe menu and I was blown away at the creativity and culinary precision.

I really wanted to like Haii Keii. It's new, it's in a decent area (Kirby), and it had a lot of promise as a new go to spot, but unfortunately, my experience left much to be desired. We arrived right when the restaurant opened and were met with an empty dining room. Despite that, I was told my fitted sweatpants (part of a cute, casual look- A Wang to be exact) weren't acceptable for their dress code. These weren't baggy college sweats, but apparently it still didn't pass the vibe check. I asked to speak with the manager, and although they eventually made an "exception," the tone and energy already felt off. I was ready to leave, but my friends encouraged me to stay and give it a shot. I obliged....sigh. Once seated, we learned that happy hour wasn't available (not sure if they have one now), so we ordered from the main menu. Unfortunately, the menu didn't stand out, and the drinks we ordered were underwhelming. One concerning thing stood out the most to me. They don't bring you an itemized receipt. Instead, they just present the payment machine, which makes it hard to verify charges. One of my friends only had one drink, yet the suggested tip on the machine was calculated off a much higher base than what she actually ordered. That lack of transparency is definitely a red flag and left me feeling uneasy. Service wasn't terrible, but the overall experience; from the off-putting welcome to the so-so food and billing issues, was not what we expected. With so many great places in Houston offering excellent food, drinks, and hospitality, Haii Keii still has a long way to go if they want to stand out. But my standards are high so go at your own risk. read more

Came here the Friday after Thanksgiving to celebrate my friends birthday. There were 4 of us so we ordered a ton of food, most of which I tried. Here's what we ordered: - Lobster Dumplings: Didn't try, my friends said they were okay. - Thai Chili Shrimp: So tasty! - Korean short rib tacos: Super tiny, you can eat the entire taco in one bite. Otherwise they were yum. - Chilean Seabass: Excellent, wish the portion were bigger because I'm greedy - Mac & Cheese: Large and shareable. Very yum and cheesy. - Crab & Garlic Fried Rice: Large portion, very good. Friends said the soft-shell crab was good. - Truffle fries: Yum, huge portion. Friends ordered several nigiri and maki, I can't remember which ones! The ambiance was cool, but it was a bit slow, but I'm guessing it's because it was the week after a holiday. The service was great, no complaints. I valet and I can't remember how much I paid, so it was probably reasonable. Maybe $5-10? Will be back! read more

This restaurant is absolutely stunning and had the food quality to match! Their happy hour is great with $7 drinks and $7 bites. The bartenders were very attentive and helpful. We ordered most of the non-sushi happy hour bites, and they were tasty. The only one we didn't like too much was the beef tacos, and that is only because the meat was a little tough but flavor was good. Cocktails were complex and yummy as well! Perfect place for a cute girls' night! read more

Over-rated and expensive. Things you should know. - Restaurant will validate self park for 2 hours, so don't prepay. - There are steps. Upstairs is more quiet and secluded. Downstairs is more lively. - 19% gratuity is automatic. - Menu gone down drastically. No real sushi. Maybe 8 rolls, with 7 being fried tempura. No sashimi or nigiri. Food was mid at best. Drinks were best thing IMO. Shrimp appetizer was good but sweet. Crab rice was not bland. Eel Shrimp roll was not good to me. Had a grilled taste. Maybe try them at HH first before doing the dinner. read more

This was a complete experience. The decor and ambiance immediately felt elevated and like no place I have ever been before. Sat at the bar which was a good move. They have an incredible dinner special for 55 dollars. Definitely get Murakami Roll as entree. I never had a roll that extravagant. The food and service was perfect. The area is great for group dinners- there was a corporate dinner and birthday party behind. Don't sleep on their drinks, pretty intensive cocktail menu. read more

Haii Keii was such a vibe. I ordered the Spring Nagano and the Ube Espresso Martini, and I was obsessed. Both drinks were super flavorful and decadent without being overly strong--perfectly balanced and dangerously easy to sip. The caviar cone though... AMAZINGGG. Hands down my favorite part of the night and something I'd come back for alone. Truly a standout. The eel sushi was solid and well-executed--no complaints there. Service was also a highlight: attentive, detailed, and really informative, which made the whole experience feel elevated. Overall, a great night with incredible drinks, a memorable bite, and top-tier service. Definitely worth the visit read more

Had a great experience at Haii Keii Saturday night. Upon entry, the ambience welcomes you, as it's very beautiful. We had reservations and was quickly seated in a 2 seater that was such a romantic vibe for date night. Our server took a good while to appear, which i would say was the only reason I'm giving 4 stars. Once she arrived, the service was stellar from there on. She was very knowledgeable of each menu item and gave great recommendations. We tried many items, but I'll say the pork rib tacos were my fav. The portion could be a little more for the price, but I def recommended trying it. Drinks were yummy as well, but some had too much ice. I'll be back soon as it was definitely a great experience. read more

Hii Keii was a great experience all around. The ambience is sexy, low-lit, and upscale with a moody, modern vibe that's perfect for date night or a stylish night out. Our server, Amani, was excellent -- attentive, knowledgeable, and made solid menu recommendations. Highlights: * Truffle Hamachi -- amazing. Melt-in-your-mouth with perfect umami and subtle sweetness. * Lost Horizon cocktail -- strong, smooth, and slightly sweet. * Filet Mignon -- cooked perfectly; the special steak sauce takes it to another level. * Broccolini -- smoky sesame, garlicky, and delicious. * Chocolate Bomb (almond toffee) -- rich and decadent. Everything was well executed, service was on point, and the vibe alone makes it worth the visit. I'll definitely be back. read more

As for the ambience, this is the cutest, trendiest spot ever. Came here for a girls night and was blown away! Cons: We had a reservation and still had to wait about 30 minutes prior to being seated. They asked us if we wanted to wait in their waiting area & basically walked us out the back door of the restaurant to this patio area. It was raining and I definitely wasn't feeling it. I thought it was an actual waiting area near the bar. The inside is a medium size, they play very trendy, techno music and there's a screen that goes all around the ceiling that shows pictures and they even put my friend's name for her birthday on the screen. I ordered the short rib appetizer, which was so good, but very, very small. It was only about two small strips of short rib. I also ordered the crispy shrimp, which had a very peculiar taste. I wasn't a fan. My two friends got these very specific sushi plates and they thought they were really good. I tried the smoked salmon roll with the jalapeño and it was pretty good even though I'm not a huge fan of sushi. We ordered the Wagyu which was very well done and the Wagyu fried rice, which was average. If you're looking for Instagram, worthy photos, a cute bar, date night or girls night, the decor and ambience are it! The food was just OK to me. read more

My bestie came to town and wanted to try this place. I had never heard of this but so glad she introduced me to this wonderful restaurant. We made last minute reservations and had to adjust when we arrived but the hostess was very friendly and understanding of our change. We went from a party of 4 to 2. Walking in the restaurant is giving all the vibes. Our waiter was cool and was able to answer all questions. My friend asked for extra cherries with her Shirley Temple and the lady who brought out the drinks came back with the house cherries all with another green cheery I do it remember what she called it. I have never seen a banh mi shrimp roll and oh my was it amazing along with my other roll. The edamame was amazing and my friend ordered the ube potatoes which I was pleasantly surprised were really good since I don't like ube.

We've been waiting to try Haii Keii since its opening was announced and finally got the chance! We were lucky to get street parking and walked over. Very dark and cool vibe - there is a dress code so visit their website to be prepared. We made a reservation since we weren't sure if it got busy but we were having a relatively early dinner and it wasn't. Everyone was super nice and attentive. The drink menu is very cool, lots of interesting concepts. I tried the JST which was a very matcha forward taste and a matcha mille bite on top (very tasty). I'm into unique drinks and flavor profiles so this drink was my favorite part of the meal lol. The sushi was very fresh and good, but for me, the options were not as inventive as the drink. We were not starving so I wish I could have tried more and definitely would comeback to try more, but even from what I saw in the reviews and menu I wish there some more out the box concepts. We both had the wagyu riced rice - my husband enjoyed it and ate it all. For me, there were so many onions and other veggies it put me off a bit. The meat was good though! Overall if you're looking for a cool experience and ambience I'd recommend, but I will say I wasn't blown away with the food. read more

Visited late on a Sunday. And maybe food would have been a bit better if we came in earlier from closing. It's absolutely beautiful inside, amazing decor. Staff were very friendly. Extensive cocktail menu, which I loved and drinks were tasty. The crispy Thai chile shrimp starter was my favorite. The fries weren't fresh and crispy but I understand it was near closing. I wasn't a big fan of the Haii keii chicken, just too much breading to meat ratio. read more
