Love the vibes, very casual, and the server was really friendly too. She was super enthusiastic when our group requested sake bombs. This was my first time going to an AYCE izakaya, and it made me wish there was one where I live. The highlight was definitely the beef teriyaki - comes out sizzling hot. The chicken teriyaki felt sad in comparison lol. Sushi was pretty good quality as well. Melona bars to top off the night! Would come back here always if I was in the area.

One guest fell ill last minute, leaving us as a party of three instead of four. The restaurant refused to honour our reservation, giving our table away to another group despite our offer to pay for the empty seat. They clearly don't value their customers.

Oh boy, no wonder this place has such a good star rating! Their service is great as they refilled…read moreour waters probably 20 times throughout the meal - yes, I inhale water like crazy haha. Their rolls are packed with flavor, and even though some of their rolls come in 8 pieces, they are not packed with rice. Their lunch menu does leave a lot to be desired but it is lunch after all so I'm hoping to be back sooner than later to give their dinner menu a try! -teriyaki salmon was moist, and filled with flavor -their takoyaki was A+ as well -spicy salmon maki is consistent with other places so I would recommend this too -their fried rolls are amazing and not too stuffed with rice but still also having a decent amount of filling! -there was this one delicious dragon roll that I cannot remember the name of but it had a mayo sauce topping it that gave it a kick - this roll was 10/10 and I would order it again and again 10000% you should make a reservation in advance because there was a wait even at 3PM on a Sunday - as a table of two, we only wait about 20 minutes but for bigger groups, you should definitely reserve ahead to be certain you'll get a table when you want one!

This is an all you can eat sushi place and I was shocked how fresh everything came out. It also came out fast! Overall good for an all you can eat place!

Tried to get a seating a few times before for a special occasion but wasn't successful in getting a reservation (my fault entirely). I must say the service and food were exemplary.

The salmon was fresh and we loved the uniqueness of the rice paper rolls, however I was a bit disappointed at it only coming with 4 pieces.

Was in Waterloo to grab lunch and randomly ended up discovering Ken Sushi House…read more The restaurant itself is simple and cozy, making it a comfortable place to sit down and catch up with friends. Service was friendly, and the food came out at a good pace even though it got a bit busy during our visit. We ordered a few items to share. The hwe dup bap (sashimi rice bowl) had fresh sashimi over rice with vegetables, it was light, refreshing, and a good choice if you're not looking for something too heavy. The chirashi bowl came with a nice assortment of sashimi and generous portions. The fish tasted fresh and there was a good variety. We also tried the salmon avocado roll, which was a classic, simple combination done well, and the spicy salmon roll, which had a mild kick and good texture overall. Overall, this was a solid spot for fresh sushi with good portion sizes, especially if you're looking for a casual place to eat in Waterloo.

I visited Ken Sushi House late one night in November 2025 with my partner while we were in the…read moremiddle of a show at the Maxwell. It was already quite late (around 8:30 p.m.), and most nearby sushi spots--like Exclamation Waterloo and Oka Sushi--were closed, so we were grateful that Ken Sushi House was still open and within walking distance. We ordered the small sushi boat ($60 for 40 pieces). Overall, we enjoyed it, but as someone who's had a lot of sushi, I wouldn't say it was particularly impressive or memorable. The quality was decent, though it felt a bit pricey for what was served. That said, the experience was still pleasant thanks to the very friendly staff, which made us feel welcome despite the late hour. The restaurant itself felt a little dated and could benefit from some renovations, but it was a solid, reliable option when choices were limited late at night.
