Food is great and the chefs put on a performance! Service is great and ambiance is nice.

Self Date. Great place to wine down as I did comfortably. My seating was quiet and very much just me.(Just how I like it) Food was decent. I ordered the hibachi steak along with the crab and shrimp rolls and a side of noodles.. My wine was mediocre but most importantly my waiter was very attentive and helpful with his personal suggestions. My usual dinner date on my off days. read more

I ordered through Uber eats and photos below is how I received my order UBER customer service refused a refund saying that I didn't meet their standards. I reached out to the restaurant restaurant would do nothing at all either I mean, seriously would you eat this? I feel that I deserve a full refund due to the state that my order was in and especially because of the large sum of money spent. I believe I was treated unjustly by the Uber Eats company as well as the restaurant because this is their product being destroyed by a delivery platform and as a customer, I deserve justice and I never got anything just I don't know what to tell you call the platform and the platform doesn't even have a phone number. All they have is a chat and they do nothing to help their customer. They basically allow the driver to do what they want tamper with the customers order. Then tell the customer that they don't qualify for a refund never again. Will I order delivery from here? I advise you if you want this restaurant eat in at least then you'll see what they're doing in front of you. read more

If I could do 0 stars I would the service is absolutely terrible I stood waiting to be seated with a party of four for over 35 minutes when there was an open table the manager was doing hostess and she doesn't care for me so she took other people in front of me when my party was there then stuck us in a back corner and didn't tell our server that she'd set people at her table we waited 35 minutes to even get our drink order and then it's still gonna be another 45+ minutes because now we're two tables behind when we should've been at the first table. I got that we have to wait for a cook because she wants to not fit people at certain tables read more

Half my party arrived ravenous and we weren't sat until our entire party was there despite the fact that the dining room was empty. I asked to have the tv station changed and was told they didn't have the authority to do that. The food was forgettable, waitstaff rude. Do yourself a favor and go to Koi. Better service, better food, and complementary edamame. Do better Kansai. read more

Had a great time at the restaurant, bold authentic flavors with several sauces for dipping. Order did not take but 15 minutes at lunch rush. Spring rolls were crisp and warm, soup was served hot and salad was crisp and refreshing. They have a grill area that you can attend but it is additional cost for the Chef... read more

Have been to this restaurant previously and had good experience however this place has went down hill and needs improvements. Food prices have increased and portions are drastically smaller for the price you pay for hibachi. I ordered the steak and chicken hibachi I received a small pile of rice 12-15 pieces of steak that were sliced as thin as a piece of paper and 6 chunks of chicken. I would have rather went to Texas Roadhouse where I know I can get consistently good food for roughly the same price and not have a chair that's like I'm sitting on the damn floor. Highly doubt this place will remain open considering the group that was also seated at out table was complaining. read more

Next to hotel,, rollled the dice. $20 for chicken yakisoba was obscenely expensive for the small serving you got. Taste was "ok" I guess but couldnt enjoy it knowing what a ripoff it was read more

We just left the location and it was TRASH! I have never felt like I was being kicked out of a place. We got to the location to celebrate my sisters birthday, they started making the food and as soon as the guy finished we got our to go boxes. The service was terrible the servers were so rude and short. I definitely will never be coming back. We got kicked out of a not so good looking place, atmosphere was not what I expected. read more

Way overpriced for Kanakee. Did a nice job and entertained us for awhile but very much not worth the bill.

The food, service, and entertainment was worth the money. I am a repeat customer, and enjoy my meal every time.

I ordered scallops and they were delicious. Good service, hearty portions and reasonable prices. read more

My husband and I have patronized Kansai for the last 6 years. We order sushi for pickup and occasionally dine in. The food is delicious with ample portions. I would highly recommend eating at Kansai. A family friendly place in the main room and also a quiet dining experience if you so desire in the dining room. The restaurant is extremely well run, the service is great and the staff are friendly. We especially like Linda the manager. She always sees that her customers are well cared for and pleased, greeting you with a welcoming smile. read more

good vibes and friendly customer service. food is good but may be a little on the expensive side, but well worth it

Don't know whether it was the sushi or hibachi steak that gave me food poisoning. Something was contaminated. Stool like water, sulfur burps. Stay away read more

We did not enjoy our lunch at all. Service was very slow. Gyoza was dry. Pan-fried beef udon was a soupy wet pile of udon instead of well, "pan-fried" udon. Seafood soba soup noodle was essentially a serving of soba in flavorless "broth" with overcooked seafood. The green tea was one tea bag in some lukewarm water, which could not brew the tea properly. We waited so long for the waiter to take our credit card and ended up walking to the cashier to pay instead. The check totalled to $57 was a rip off. We could have two decent lunches at the nearby Cracker Barrel for half the price. Will not be back read more

How do you have a hibachi style food dish that has no flavor. The teriyaki sauce was so watered down that flavor must have been strained out. Veggies on the plate were flash cooked, as in put on to heat up and taken off, Raw veggies aren't great. Close this place down!!! read more

Good food, but plagued by the problem of everything tasting the same. I went last night with 3 others and our chef and 2 servers were all good. They had good portion sizes. Unfortunately, the same thick soy concoction is used in EVERY SINGLE HIBACHI ITEM. Veggies? Butter and thick sauce. Rice? Butter and thick sauce. Filet? Butter and thick sauce. Scallops? Butter and thick sauce. Other than texture, every single dish on my plate had the same flavor and the veggies and meat/seafood were overpowered by the sauce. It was truly a one note meal. We had the Tornado Roll to start. Good, although the warm baked fish was in the middle, and not atop our sushi, so it was like eat a piece of sushi, use a fork to get a scoop of the topping. It would have been better with the mixture on top. read more

Portion size not fair. No customer service, no manager would see me to make my complaints/concerns corrected. Left restaurant feeling unsatisfied. Never again! read more

They were making our food and the fire alarm started going off really loud and me and my kids and many others had to leave and we cane back to cold food and it sucked we had to sit in the heat DO NOT RECOMEND read more

Went here for a birthday dinner, should of went to their competitor. The food was mediocre and overpriced. We were seated all the way in the back (boring) because we didn't want to sit at the chop chop grill. The server seemed like she'd rather be somewhere else. We are not demanding or unfriendly patrons, so being treated like this was unnecessary. I know it's COVID but come on, everyone is dealing. read more

Food was amazing! I ordered the drunken noodles and the portion was so large it lasted me two meals after my initial one. It was soooo delicious, even as leftovers, all the flavors came together deliciously and the glass noddles were a perfect choice. I sat at the bar as it was a busy Friday night, but I was well-tended to! Ambiance is on the darker side, but it's so lively you won't even notice, and it adds to the coziness of the whole place. Absolutely would go again! read more

Completely ridiculous. Made a reservation a week in advance for Valentine's Day for 630PM, and get here and get told by some waitress with a bad attitude that they overbooked tonight and that there is a 2 hour wait WITH a reservation. This place is a complete joke. Get your stuff together If there was a way to leave no stars i would do that! read more

My Son & I ate there for Mother's Day and sat at the grill. Very friendly servers and of course the cook was very funny. The food was good & plenty full. My only complaint is the chairs around the grill, NEED NEW ONES ~ TOO LOW!! read more

We were staying at the Holiday Inn on Christmas Day and was so grateful for them to be open. We were promptly seated and greeted by the glorious staff that was working on a Holiday and taking time away from their families. The service was excellent. The food was beyond excellent. We had the tornado sushi roll and had them put shrimp tempura instead of spicy tuna and it was out of this world. So good in fact that we are considering ordering another round for dinner tonight. I had the filet hibachi with chicken fried rice and everything was so good! The steak was cooked perfectly and the rice had such good flavor. I highly recommend coming here! We will definitely be back next time we come into town to visit family. read more

Very good food. Uncomfortable seating around the grills, no leg room. Chairs very low to the ground and hard to get up. However, I still like enough to go! read more

This place was just ok. The quality of the food was def not anything to write home about. This was our first time here for sushi, we'd been before for the hibachi. We decided to start with 2 orders of nigiri and gyoza. They were out of our first 2 choices so we settled with other selections. The gyoza kind of tasted like it was a frozen product thrown in the deep fryer. We also ordered a rainbow roll. Presentation was nice and the quality of the fish wasn't bad, it just wasn't the best either. The sushi chef did give us a crab salad which was good and appreciated! read more

Thoroughly enjoyed our food! Great waitress assisted in my choice of Sake (i didnt expect that much assistance. The shrimp and scallop hibachi combo was great the veggies were not over cooked and shrimp and scallops had a good sear but weren't over cooked I did find the sauce to be a bit on the salty side but I mixed my rice in it and it mellowed out well.. our tempura rolls were great too. My wife and I will be back. read more

Best sushi in Kankakee county. Good service even when busy and the ambiance is nice with dim lights

We had a delicious dinner at Kansai tonight! The sushi was fresh and delicious. Our server, Andy, was very attentive! He checked on us and made sure we had everything we needed and that the food was delicious. He brought the check in a timely manner as well as boxes and a bag, which he bagged for me! I hope to have Andy again our next visit! read more

Great food at typical Japanese steak house prices. I went for the sushi bar and was not disappointed. Chef was friendly and the rolls were more stuff than rice. Decent heat on the spicy tuna and salmon. The service was nice but the front door opens directly on the seating for the sushi bar and it was below freezing that night. Trust me, you knew whenever someone opened the door. So if it's cold out leave your coat on or sit at the hibachis and let them warm you up. read more

Overpriced food that just isn't very good. Shrimp tempura is not homemade and is way too expensive for what it is. If they cut their prices in half, they'd get a solid three stars, but for the price they're miserably bad. If they improved the quality of the food and decreased the price, maybe I would consider going back. read more

Stopped in here for a couple drinks and an appetizer , I asked to be seated at the bar since I was by myself . Sara the manager greeted me right away . Being unaware of what I really wanted to eat , Sara was very helpful with suggestions and opinions on what sushi is considered best selling . Sara was fun to talk to , full of useful information. In my opinion she is a huge asset to this business , she knows how to cater to customers, very friendly and is top notch at what she does . Thanks Sara , Will come visit you again !! read more

Went for a birthday dinner, when we were sat in the dining room the entire place smelled like cat urine. The table and menus were also sticky. The smell was so overwhelming we decided to leave before ordering. The staff did not seem surprised we changed our minds about eating there after being in the dining room. read more

Dark and somewhat dingy restaurant with terrible service and very mediocre food. There is good Asian food in the area but not here.
