Refreshing Surprise - Passion & Care…read more I was down the street getting a haircut and had a craving for sushi, so I opened Yelp, spotted Kanzi, and decided to swing by. I'm so glad I did. Kanzi is one of those refreshing surprises: an approachable neighborhood sushi spot that clearly cares about the details. They may not be trying to be an ultra high-end omakase destination with otoro and uni, but what they do offer, they execute with care, precision, and pride. The fish was clearly well stored and well cared for, and the cuts were clean and thoughtful. I tried the red snapper, eel, mackerel, yellowtail, masago, super white tuna with fresh wasabi, and one roll: the no-rice Cool Hawaiian. I'll post a few pictures as well because the presentation really deserves it. I sat at the bar and had the chance to talk with Hong, the chef preparing my food. I learned that he took over the restaurant from his brother and still visits sushi restaurants around DFW at least twice a week to keep learning, tasting, and improving his own craft. That told me everything I needed to know. There is real passion here. Hong believes the details matter, from a clean bathroom to the right Japanese knife, specially purchased for left-handed use. That kind of care shows up in the food and in the overall experience. Go visit Kanzi, sit at the bar if you can, and tell Hong that Tait says hello -- and thank you. Pro Tip: Kanzi is currently BYOB. There is a liquor store right across the parking lot, literally within about 50 feet. Walk in, head to the cooler on the far right, grab a cold bottle of sake, and bring it back with you. Kanzi has sake cups ready to go, which makes the whole experience even better.

We got the chicken boa bun, the shishito peppers, different types of nigiris, two different hand rolls and the wagyu. Everything tasted great but my favorites were the wagyu and the tuna handroll. I will be back to try their other items!

The sushi is pretty good, nothing too premium, but it does the job. The fried rice and noodles were yumm! I really liked how the vents for the grill are at the sides so you don't smell afterwards or hear a loud fan.. super cool! I wish they had a dessert item included but it's all good. Lastly, since they did have Korean bbq, I did miss the usual sides you get with kbbq like the various salads, kimchi, potatoes salad etc.. wish they had that. Regardless, the service was fast and friendly and this place is super spacious for large groups! Can't wait to be back

It definitely lived up to expectations (and for a to-go lunch, that's saying A LOT!). So many people throw around the word 'authentic' but this place is the real deal. they've got a daily fish special (even have Akamutsu as an offering.....real indication of a true sushi joint) and a menu offering izakaya options that are hard to be found at other japanese restaurants. We got some rolls and ebi tempura udon to go. Speaking to japanese attention to detail, each to-go bag came with a hard cardboard cut out at the bottom of the paper bag to prevent spilling/caving through. Utensils packed were good quality disposable chopsticks, and for each portion of sushi there was a ramikin of wasabi, ginger, and both regular and low sodium soy sauce packets. and this sounds silly but high quality napkins included in the to-go as well. the rolls came with great generous portions of fresh fish. but what super surprised me was the ebi udon. the ebi tempura were HUGE. REAL DEAL TEMPURA, FRIED IN HOUSE. alot of places just get those frozen ones that are skinny but tiny...these ones are massive, and well worth the price. the udon soup came with wakame too. i called ahead to order and they quoted me 15 min, however it took about 25 min for me to have the order in my hands. no big deal, but even during a weekday lunch the restaurant (albeit on the smaller side) was 70% full so they were prob pretty busy. can't wait to come back and try this place in earnest later!

Kisses xoxoxoxo I love this place. My boyfriend said I was over exaggerating about this place but…read moreprofusely apologized after the first bite. I went the day before Thanksgiving and the japanese chef was a one man show. He was the only one running the establishment because everyone else had left to go to Japan for the holiday. He is so so so so nice. I don't go back to restaurants very often but this place has my heart. This time I got the spicy pork ramen (17), spicy garlic chicken ramen (18), and then got the spicy garlic pork ramen (19) togo. I will say it is a little bit salty, with the garlic ones being more salty than the non garlic ones. However the garlic ones do have more flavor. There's not that much meat/protein either just one piece of meat and an egg. The could be slightly better but it's still good. It also just has bamboo shoots but nothing else. A very simple bowl. Ambiance is nice, it feels upscale but also homey at the same time. They have an open kitchen concept which I like.

I got Spicy garlic pork ramen. I liked the broth. It was tasty and not too heavy. The pork was…read moredelicious, but it was buried at the bottom of the bowl and had broken into smaller pieces. I had to dig for it. I know they probably put the meat at the bottom so it'll warm up with the broth, but I prefer it at the top. The egg was whole and cooked so it was a little runny inside, which I liked. I also liked the noodles. Unrelated to the food, I sat on the bench and there was a customer sitting on the bench beside me. She kept shifting around and causing the entire bench to move, which I didn't like.

What really stood out, though, was the service. Our waitress was fantastic and paid attention to the little details. My friend was making sure our order didn't include mushrooms, and she took the time to ask if it was due to an allergy so she could make sure everything was safe. That level of care really felt like going above and beyond. Great food, great prices, and outstanding service. We'll definitely be back!

The atmosphere is pretty slick. A Photo Booth like space, nice bathrooms and flexible seating to accommodate both large parties and small parties. Reasonable prices that allow you to try new things and enjoy other things that you may be familiar with. All of the items that we had are in the photos, but the creative presentation is what stood out most! Cute bao buns, chicken served with ramen to allow the customer to enjoy it as they would like, and good sized portions. My only ask would be for more broth with the ramen dishes. The noodle to broth ratio was just slightly off. 9/10 would recommend.

We've tried quite a few rolls, nigiri, and riceless rolls -- everything is always fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The cucumber salad and the Rose Roll with Serrano are my absolute favorites, while my husband can't get enough of the shishito peppers and tuna poke bowl. The staff is always so kind and helpful -- they're great about answering questions and suggesting new things to try. It's a cute, quiet spot that's perfect for a family meal, a night out with friends, or even a cozy date night. I also love that they keep sports on a couple of TVs, which adds a relaxed, welcoming vibe. You can tell their takeout business is popular too, and I've noticed they offer some great specials. It's wonderful to support a locally owned small business that truly cares about quality and customer experience. Highly recommend Sushi Nekko -- a true hidden gem!
