Visited here last night with friends and ordered the grilled seafood. Even though the wait to be seated was longer than expected for a Wednesday night, the experience turned out wonderful. Julie at the front was welcoming and very accommodating. Our waitress was amazing as well she was handling the floor on her own and still managed to provide excellent service to everyone with such a positive attitude. The grilled seafood was delicious, and I really enjoyed the sangria too. Looking forward to coming back again soon! read more

Great food, awesome you can order a sushi, dumplings, ramen and a rice bowl at the same place! Products are fresh and timely. Super relaxing environment, surprised this place isn't more packed. read more

Hello Folks, I went to Kabuki's a week ago and I was pleasantly surprised. The sushi and food items we ordered were on point. The service woman we had was fabulous and attentive to us. The ambiance was casual and it's freakin happy hour all day! It's probably my second best place for sushi in SCV area. read more

Always enjoy the food at Kabuki! The service is excellent too. Recommend ordering the BBQ ribs they are the best thing on the menu.

Service was not good. I only got one refill because noon was around to help and the ones working there just walked by and didn't do anything . Food came at all wrong times . Food was pretty good. I had tonkatsu and I brought my own sauce . Than god I did or I wouldn't have gotten any more the whole two cutlets . I most likely won't be going back to this place . read more

Don't order take out go on the weekend! You will have to wait a very long time for food and service. Staff will provide excuses such as there is only one chef working. Hostess staff lacks maturity and professionalism. Really too bad. Considering they literally share the walls with California Pizza kitchen, you think they would try harder!! read more

Not happy with the service at all. I called in and placed an order for four people and specifically asked for extra ginger. When I got home, there was only one tiny pack included. I called back thinking it was a mistake, only to be told that it's "one ginger per order." Interesting policy for an order feeding four people. The funny part is, I would have happily paid extra if someone had simply mentioned there was a limit. Great food, but apparently ginger is being treated like a rare luxury item these days. read more

I have always enjoyed Kabuki's food and have ordered from this location many times, which is why this experience was so disappointing. Recently, my family and I took my parents there for lunch with our two young children (ages 1 1/2 and 3 1/2). My younger toddler was very quiet, and my older son had a few moments where he got a little excited and spoke loudly, as many toddlers do. It was not constant, he never left his seat, wasn't running around the restaurant, and wasn't doing anything out of hand. As his mom, I was attentive the entire time and reminded him to use his inside voice whenever he got a little loud. The restaurant wasn't even busy, and we were seated near the entrance, away from most of the dining room. Despite that, an older Asian waitress with short hair (who wasn't even our server) came over and told me that "our customers are complaining." I immediately apologized and explained that we were already finishing our meal and that I was actively reminding my son to keep it down. She then said, "It's usually older people that complain." That interaction completely changed the atmosphere of what was supposed to be a nice lunch with my parents. I honestly left feeling embarrassed and judged. I don't even believe anyone had actually complained, it felt more like she simply didn't want children there. I completely understand that restaurants should remain comfortable for everyone, and I would never allow my children to run around, disturb other guests, or make excessive noise. I'm the type of parent who cleans up after my kids and is always mindful of those around us. But toddlers are still toddlers, and a few brief moments of excitement shouldn't make a family feel unwelcome in what is supposed to be a family-friendly restaurant. I want to be clear that our actual server was kind, and as always, the food was great. My complaint is solely about the older waitress with the short hair. Her approach was unnecessary, insensitive, and completely ruined our dining experience. Because of this interaction, I won't be returning to this location. I hope management addresses how families with young children are treated, because no parent who is actively supervising their child should be made to feel unwelcome for normal toddler behavior. read more

Sad to say after a long time of not coming here, it seems like the reviews saying quality and service have suffered are indeed correct unfortunately. We were sat pretty quickly by a very unenthused hostess, but then nothing- for a good 10-15 minutes. Once we saw our waiter Eric, we ordered drinks and rolls right away and then again, nothing. He kept randomly passing by but ignoring us. No updates. Sometimes we wouldn't see him for a while. Eventually the gyoza but still no eel sauce or drinks. Another 5-6 minutes goes by and a man (not our server) randomly literally keeps fast walking past our table dropping ginger and wasabi, like quickly. Then our drinks, but then has to get straws. Then 10 minutes go by and our server brings out my partners roll. A few more minutes. He apologizes for the delay, but yet disappears again. Then finally eel sauce. Then we can eat. By this time my gyoza is cold, the drink is watered down, and we are like "what is going on??" there was literally 4 tables. 9 people in the section. I was just astounded. We wanted to ordered more for happy hour but at this rate it would've been over by the time we got the food. I did order the soy garlic chimking wings to-go and by the time he brought that and our check, those were also cold. The ordeal to get the bag and boxes...don't even get me started!! I've never seen this place struggle this bad. And as you see in my previous reviews, I had nothing but good things to say and we ordered a lot more then! The rolls sat up on the sushi counter for QUITE a minute before being taken. I don't know if Eric was having an off day or what but it wasn't as busy as I've seen it. Unfortunately probably won't be back soon! Sorry! read more

I usually don't post negative reviews but this is the 2nd time in a row that we placed an order and were given a pickup time but the food wasn't ready for additional hour. Won't be going back read more

Sofie was an incredible server! She was attentive, friendly, and handled our large group's orders flawlessly. Her recommendations were spot-on, and she kept everything running smoothly with a genuine smile. Made our dinner experience outstanding. Highly recommend asking for Sofie ! read more

Love the sushi here great deals Sometimes the wait is quite long when they are down servers, but that doesn't stop us from coming back

The Restaurant has an A rating, which I always look for. It's a nice place and Server was efficient. The Happy Hour menu is good. We had plenty of food, however I don't recommended any meat products, my Chicken & Beef I ordered was both tuff. I couldn't eat the beef, I should have complained, but didn't want to make a seen. I would maybe go back for Happy Hour and only order rolls. The thing I really didn't like is when I got my receipt after paying and leaving what I feel was a reasonable tip compared to the service almost 18 percent my receipt said at the bottom Suggested Additional Tip. Tipping is getting out of hand, plus tipping is based on total service. They should not be trying to get more tipping from people. If you figure the hourly wage plus the amount of tables a server handles in an hour times the times it actually comes out to a decent hourly wage. Some people will tip lower & some higher, It averages out. read more

I feel like this place has gotten cheaper and cheaper with the quality of service and food. The service has been so bad and slow that we decided to get an order to go recently. When I picked up the order I opened the box and my rolls looked so small. I ordered an Albacore Crunch Roll along with a Sun-kissed Roll. When I asked the gal at the front for more "crunch" she had to go to the sushi bar to get it and it took forever. When the other hostess came by me she asked "did you get your crunch yet?" I said "not yet" she replied to me "did you pay for it?" I said "nope" and she said "well they are yelling to the hostess u need to pay extra for it." I said "nope" and as soon as the girl came to give to me I grabbed it and walked away. As you can see in my pic they hardly gave me any crunch. So don't call a roll an "Albacore Crunch Roll" if you want to skimp on the crunch smh ‍ It's just sad I used to love coming here but last few times it's been not good :( read more

Tons of Happy Hour options (even on Fridays!), and good food. We loved the rose roll (pictured), chicken wings, and gyoza. The bar has a nice vibe and was busy but well taken care of. The staff was attentive and helpful in their food and drink suggestions. Who can go wrong with $2 beer and $2 hot sake? read more

Kabuki Japanese Restaurant - Definitely NOT everyday - Sushi Bars Near Me - Valencia, California

Hanging out in the Santa Clarita area and stumbled across Kabuki. My 4th location and noticed quickly that while the food is pretty consistent at each restaurant, there are different services and specials between them. This location has an Happy Hour every day of the week. I loved that and took full advantage. Ordered a couple of margaritas and a few rolls. The atmosphere was quiet, clean and a similar look to other locations. I had a great experience read more

Honestly, screw this place. I ordered online and had my bf pick it up. It took an HOUR past pickup time. Which was already an HOUR out. So he had to wait 2 fricken hours. Then he ordered ice cream on the side because I just had my wisdom teeth removed and wanted ice cream and miso and I got a ball of crap. Literaly ball of soggy crap. What the hell IS THIS? THIS was $60??? I am never ever eating here again. Thanks for ruining my night!!!! read more

Today I had the absolute worse experience. Sofie/Sofia was our server upon coming to our table she was rude and barely wanted to great us! After taking our order and SLAMMING down our drinks she never returned to drop our food, give refills or merely check if we needed anything. If it wasn't for the runner Pablo, we probably would've never ate because she left our food sitting out and never gave it to us. We had to go as far as going to the hostess stand to ask for our check! She's a terrible server that needs customer service training! We decided not to tip her and instead hand deliver the entire 22% tip to Pablo since he was amazing. Kabuki Valencia, Sofie is not a good representation of the brand!!! read more

Really solid food- some of the worst service I've ever had, however. We had to move to the sushi bar to get anyone to take our order. And even then, we had all our sushi in front of us before a server greeted us and had finished our dinner before water and drinks got to the table. Will have to find another spot to get our sushi. read more

First time to go to this place. Food is really good. Staff are so friendly... I loove this place...

This location is our go to for lunch. It is located in the Bridgeport plaza. The staff is extremely nice all the time it is not too loud inside and they have seating outside too. The food always tastes fresh and is so tasty. If you need a lunch or dinner spot Kabuki is definitely recommended. read more

In the number of years we've been eating here in Kabuki Valencia, this is the first time we had to wait for over 30 mins despite the place having moderate number of customers. What agitated us more is the fact that when my son's pork cutlet arrived, the pork was already cold as if it had been sitting in the cooking area for some time, that is unacceptable. Do better Kabuki. read more

Tonight was the worst services I ever had there. I even ask for a manager and they never came. The food took an hour to be served to me, it took the, 45 min to serve me Miso soup. I order tuna salad with dressing on the side and it came with dressing I couldn't eat the salad. The waitress was rude and just said the restaurant was backed up. Customer who came after me we serve food before me.. read more

I hate places like this restaurant. Mia the hostess refused to serve us and had very bad attitude. The time says they close at 9:30. We show up at 9 o'clock and they say they are closed. It is not fair. We drove all the way here because they said they were open for another 30 minutes. Everywhere in Santa Clarita closes early people that work late get screwed. read more

I don't know what people are talking about with that low ratings! The food is fantastic and the service is excellent... the prices are not bad either. The spicy beef ramen is to live, then die and come back to life for. I've been there a few times and plan on going back. Also, Kaitlyn is amazing! Her joyful ways and customer service is by far the best I've experienced there. read more

Nice, easy spot for Japanese food. The sushi is fresh, portions are good, and there's plenty to choose from on the menu. Service is usually friendly, the place is clean, and it's a comfortable place to sit down and eat. Nothing fancy--just good food and a relaxed vibe. read more

Just left and had the best experience. Brought our friends here to visit from out of state and sat in the bar area. Our server Asia was sweet and funny. We absolutely loved her. She was attentive and always kept our glasses full. Our friends aren't much sushi eaters but Asia recommended hibachi rice and the chicken wings and they loved both. The happy hour every day is definitely a plus but the excellent service will keep us coming back. read more

Came in on weekend server took order, then other server changed position. Food came without rice that I ordered. I asked server where's my rice she said the original severe never ordered it. 20 minutes later I got rice. Food was not steaming hot like usually. I ordered green tea came luke warm had to be returned. Not sure what's going on there! read more

Came here during happy hour. Shrimp sushi was great, very fresh. Edamame was great. Katsu chicken in the bento box was really dry, should have stuck with the sushi. Alcoholic beverages were great.

I am extremely disappointed with my recent experience at Kabuki Japanese Restaurant. Overall, it was horrible. I placed my order through Grubhub, and when it was delivered, it was missing items. I understand that delivery issues can sometimes be the driver's fault and not necessarily the restaurant's. However, what happened next is what truly upset me. I called the restaurant to speak with the manager, hoping to resolve the situation. I was hung up on twice. When I finally was able to speak with someone, I was told that it was not their issue and essentially "too bad" that my order was incomplete. The manager was rude, dismissive, and made no attempt to listen or offer any assistance. My goal was not to get anything for free. I simply wanted to find a way to pay for the missing portion of my order, my son's dinner, and pick it up myself. Instead, I was treated with zero hospitality and zero care. While I am working with Grubhub regarding the delivery issue, my biggest concern is the way I was treated by what was once a reputable local restaurant that I have supported. I am incredibly saddened by the manager's response and lack of professionalism. Unfortunately, because of this experience, I will never visit or order from this establishment again. read more

The food was not fresh the edamame and sashimi were really bad. The service was also poor. They forgot several of our orders, and we had to ask multiple times for our drinks and rolls . Lastly, when the tip was lower than expected, staff approached our table to question it and asked if we would be leaving more in cash, which made us uncomfortable. read more
