The sushi is about grocery store quality but the fact you can customize it or deep fry it makes it better. If you're used to spending a lot of money on sushi at high end restaurants, you will be disappointed. However, the set up is brilliant. It's chipotle style and theres a lot of choices for a low price (about the same as the grocery store). I can't remember everything but they had cooked and raw options as well as tofu. I got shrimp tempura, green onions, avocado, tobiko, and spicy mayo. My partner got salmon, asparagus, avocado, fried onions, and miso sauce. She commented that she didn't prefer sushi that has the seaweed on the outside, but that didn't bother me. We both thought our meals were ok and we agreed to definitely come back to try more things. The drink menu is extensive and overwhelming if you're not familiar with all the different kinds of teas. My partner ordered the passionfruit slush and she loved it, I tried to be adventurous and order some grapfruit yogurt thing, but they didn't have it so I ordered the honey lemonade, which was perfect. The people who work there are very friendly and helpful and the place has a good vibe and comfy seating. I can't wait to come back to try a rice bowl and a different drink. I will probably post an updated review. read more

See all

Bad move on my part coming here, sushi is not a good food to cut corners with. This is not a good place to get sushi (especially for $7), not sure what I expected, the staff (at least in the afternoon) were very unenthusiastic and basically didn't know/care about what they were doing. I would not come here again. read more

My husband and I really enjoyed this place. The bubble tea is excellent, and the sushi is pretty good (though not excellent).

Staff is extremely cheerful. They are super fast and efficient. The teriyaki bowls are delicious and the sushi to die for.

Fast fresh and good. People are great there. David is awesome. Had the spicy tuna and Ohio rolls. Staff are very good and the line moves quick. Never had a bad roll here. read more

This place is cool, but be willing to spend more than $20 per person if you want the full experience. Kung Fu Tea is a must, check out the Top 10 if you're hesitant or just can't decide. Teriyaki bowls are very similar to what you would get at a Sakkio Japan, good, not great. Also be prepared to add on some addition up- charges. Lots of good starters to choose from, and the create- your- own sushi is tasty and convenient, but no match for a sushi connoisseur. Spend some time looking over the menu before ordering and you're sure to have a good experience! read more

Made-to-order custom sushi rolls with bubble tea is good. If you want more, get teriyaki rice. The bubble tea girl there is cute too.

For a fast food restaurant, I guess it is OK. I wouldn't expect much from neither the quality nor the portion of food you will get here. The food is a bit on the more expensive side, whether you get sushi or the teriyaki. The portion was not enough for me most of the time. Their bubble tea is great though. read more

by far, the worst sushi place i have tried in the recent years.. let me tell u why i believe to make a good sushi roll, u really need to have good sushi rice.. and i never notice the seaweed wrapper is that important until i tried its sushi here..i dont think i have been to any sushi place that would mess up their seaweed wrapper why the rice ruined my appetite here bc the traditional sushi rice would add rice vinegar but the sushi rice they use is just plain rice and somewhat sticky.. a good sushi rice u would taste the vinegar and the rice would not be mushy.. i find it to be disappointing . the ingredients are alright.. nothing outstanding.. the seaweed wrapper is hard to chew i like the idea of each customer gets to choose its sushi roll ingredient.. from wrapper, rice, protein, sauce, and toppings.. but i am disappointed at the quality of sushi this place delivers read more

I enjoy this place a lot and frankly is also one of my favorite sushi places. However, I went in today to get my usual order of shrimp tempura sushi with cucumbers and carrots. The worker picks up 3 pieces of each (cucumber and carrots) very hesitantly and puts it on my roll. I asked him for more since he was clearly being stingy and he said it would be an extra $1. I refused to pay the extra dollar but informed him I would be posting a negative review on yelp based on my experience and he didn't even seem to mind. read more

Cool! Not at all what I was expecting. I was in the university circle area and saw this place had good reviews, so I decided to try it- I was realllllyyyyyy craving sushi. I walked in and was disappointed to see that I had to "create my own roll". Ugh. Why. But whatever. It ended up being delicious! You pick one protein, two veggies or fillers, and 2-3 sauces to put on top. I chose tofu, avocado and cucumber, sriracha and eel sauce, wrapped in brown rice and a seaweed wrap. It was SO good!! They had a few rolls that you didn't have to "create yourself", but they didn't sound appealing to me. They also offer teriyaki, appetizers, and bubble tea. The menu is small, but I think anyone could find something they like. I do wish the price was a bit lower. I really wanted a second roll, I usually eat more than 1, but the fact that it was 8 dollars per roll was really a deterrent. So, I left sort of hungry. But I would definitely go back since it was so tasty. Also, they have parking in the back- .50 per half hour. read more

My coworkers and I wanted to try something new for lunch today and stumbled upon Kenko. We loved the fast service and the rice pooping machine. However, the food did not wow us. Things we liked: location, fast service, make your own sushi, the sauces & the grilled beef. Things that need improvement: Rice was bland & the shrimp had not been deveined (feces). Also it was overpriced for the quality of food. After, the food did not sit well in our stomachs. read more

We were visiting to see the museums and saw this highly rated place on Yelp. A lot of college kids were eating eating there when we walked in. Ordered the chix bowl and some sushi Food was good and the service was quick. Would repeat read more

I only had a boba drink, but I was truly impressed! The tea can be personalized in terms of sweetness and ice, which is a huge plus and was perfectly flavored. The boba was perfectly chewy. This place definitely blew my Cleveland expectations out of the water. read more

Maybe it was a coincidence, but I got sick about 2 hours after eating here. I noticed the chicken on my rice bowl didn't taste good (on top of being over cooked, it tasted off/bad), so I stopped eating it. But apparently not soon enough. :(. The rest of the bowl was good, and the service was great. They were all pleasant and patient. read more

Hands down to the best bubble tea place in Cleveland! I'm not much of an explorer when it comes to tea flavor, but I must say their taro with green tea and passion fruit with green tea are my two favorite! It has a nice mix of sweet and bitterness to it that makes it so irresistible and addicting. I've given up on Starbucks when I come to work because the drinks have a good amount of caffeine in it. The tapioca balls are so soft sometimes I literally swallow them. The balls do, however, get a bit tough by then end of the day. I work different shifts at UH so I do noticed the difference in softness, not a big deal though! It's better than getting frozen balls that have been microwaved and served to you like some other restaurants, which is a big turn off for me. I have also spread this Asian phenomenon with my boss and fellow co-workers, who have become regular customers here. This place also offer customize sushi, almost like a chipotle but with sushi instead. I'm not really a fan of the sushi, the seaweed wrappers are more "fishier" than what I'm used to, so I'm a bit turned off by the flavor of everything else that goes into it. There is the soy wrapper option but it does cost extra. Customer service is excellent, and everyone is super friendly! Lastly, I think they can work on their pricing options for their teriyaki bowls. I spent $8.99 there for the beef teriyaki, which was not good imo (beef had no taste, vegetables were not cooked thoroughly). In comparison, the chicken teriyaki only cost about $5.99 at any mall, with bigger portion and more taste. Just a thought, but I will always go here for their amazing bubble tea! read more

Pretty average. It's nice that you can customize your roll, but also kind of ridiculous to pay $8 for one roll when there are much better (and cheaper) options in the area. Still a fun place to go, but you're going more for the novelty than really good sushi. read more

After reading the reviews, I definitely wanted to stop here for the bubble drinks. I love the fact that they make their own boba in the store. We ordered the milk bubble tea w coconut and the taro slush. Both delicious. I was in Malaysia in the summer and drank a lot of bubble tea but Kenko's was better. read more

Pretty good sushi, love the tea. Great value for the price. I am not a huge fan of the teriyaki bowls, but the build your own sushi and awesome selection of bubble tea. Great for a quick lunch. read more

The Little Delicious is to die for. I didn't think I'd like it, so I tried some of my wife's. Now I get it every time. Then I took my best friend there, , he tried one bite of mine, and now we both order it every time we get together for lunch. read more

Had lunch at the location. Very happy with the various teriyaki meals we had. Strong cooks. The only negative was the price was a little high for the restaurant. Again great food and would recommend to anyone. read more

Two months ago I would have given 5 stars. Things have changed and not for the better. I have an hour lunch break close to Kenko's so I would go at least 4 times a week. I would build my own sushi roll and get a bubble tea with a little less sugar. Been doing this since they opened. Recently I was told I couldn't customize my order because "the new manager doesn't allow it." Then I noticed the portions have been cut way down by "orders of the new manager". The past few times I've gone I've waited 30 min. out of my hour lunch break to get my order .Plus they have been out of bubbles to make the tea . A big red flag to me is this once friendly fun place now has the feel of walking into a funeral home, none of the familiar faces are there any more and the place looked empty. Time to rethink a new manager I'd say. read more

i really dont like this place. im sorry. on one hand the drinks are watery(esp the almond milk tea) and a lot of other bad things, but on the other hand its the ONLY boba place on campus. i usually am okay with regular boba black/green milk tea but gosh its terrible here. i dont know what it is...if its because the milk powder that they use or the tea...but the first time i got the boba milk green tea was also the last time i got it. i threw it away after 5 sips bc it tasted that bad. the only thing thay i liked was the taro milk GREEN tea. it tastes good with the pudding. the grapefruit yogurt is okay as well. their food is so pricey considering what you get. for the sushi i feel like you get more rice and other stuff than you do the fish. and then a plain udon noodle soup is freaking $9. and its tiny. even plain good udon soup in other big cities is like $6. sorry but i wont be spending my money here. read more

just another subpar restaurant in university circle trying to capitalize on the college student dollar. if you notice almost all the high ratings are for the bubble tea and not the food. i guess fellow yelpers dont know that kung fu tea has a separate page on yelp. i have not tried the tea yet. i purchased 2 teriyaki bowls and 6 specialty sushi rolls off the menu ($100 carryout order). i have had better teriyaki at a mall food court. the fact that they are using boneless skinless thigh meat is a turn off i was hoping for better quality than the mall food court or my local take out place. sushi was next to flavorless as was the teriyaki i felt like it was asian night at the local nursing home. i was really hoping for better. what a disappointment. save your money and grab cheap takeout from another local asian place. its the same food and at least it will have flavor. read more

it is a relly nice place to bring your family out to also they have really good sushi and it is really fresh and good so i highly refer this place if you really like sushi. read more
