Went on a Saturday around 4pm and the place was already packed. A short 5-10 minute wait and we…read morewere seated in a booth. Our server took awhile to get to us and didn't ask about drinks. Our food came out rather in an odd order. I got my popcorn chicken first then my ramen. My wife got her ramen dish. Than after 15 minutes our friend was still waiting on her sushi. You would think the sushi wouldn't take so long. We actually had to ask a server where it was before it arrived. Not sure how much longer it would have been if we didn't inquire. The food was delicious no complaints there at all. I'm hoping on the next visit the service is a bit more attentive.

Chose this restaurant based on the Yelp reviews and ya'll came through-again. When I pulled up it…read moreseems like a small place (it kinda is) with no customers in the parking lot but never judge a book by its cover. The rolls were delicious ad fresh (Kamikaze and Rock and Roll). Then order chicken hibachi and not only was the serving size huge - it was soooooo good. Customer service is great. It's surrounded on both sides with dessert places so take your food home for lunch and treat yourself. Lol

After reading the reviews, we had to try them again. We were here before I began writing for Yelp,…read moreabout 4 years ago. Walking in, we saw a huge, clear plastic barrier side to side and most of the way to the ceiling, and i wondered why. It looks awful and is off-putting, which is what restaurants do not want. You order through a small gap in the plastic. I ordered the Japanese chicken noodle soup, and it arrived piping hot. After it cooled a bit, i tried the broth and IMO it lacked flavor. The chicken breast in it was very tender, and the baby boy Choi did not really seem to complement the soup. Also, I ordered a shrimp egg roll, yup, you guessed, right. It was all cabbage and 1 shrimp, only 1 of the tiniest shrimp I've ever seen and very greasy. It was disappointing. My husband ordered the shrimp and chicken on fried rice ( the man working there said this is their most popular dish). What arrived was only shrimp on the fried rice and no chicken. It was ok, a bit on the sweet side. Generous serving. Generally speaking, the menu is limited, and that is good when you can expect what they do being done well. I would much rather have it that way instead of a restaurant that has lots and lots, meaning quality vs. quantity. In this visit, the quality was off for my portion of the meal. Prices are reasonable for what you order. Service was really good and accommodating. They were very friendly.

The sautéed vegetables still had a little crunch and were coated in a light, savory sauce. Portions were generous and everything looked and tasted like it was made with care. I'd definitely order this combo again. Price was only $16 each!

Boooy did we underestimate the portion sizes of their sushi special rolls…read more A friend was visiting from out of town and we wanted to get sushi. Shoyou seemed to have good reviews so we walked in without reservations. Looking at the menu we thought oh the three of us can easily demolish 2 regular maki rolls and maybe 3 special rolls. Nope. We had so much leftovers! And everything tasted so good! Its aptly priced. If you are getting a special roll it will be at least 4 to 8 pieces depending on what you get. My favorite of the special rolls was actually the spider roll which was made with softshell crab(and not pictured as it was promptly devoured) Would recommend if you're in the Baltimore area and want to support a local restaurant in a nice neighborhood. Don't fall for Azumi hype when places like this exist.

I also noticed they did the same for other tables, which really shows how much they care about the experience. I ordered four pieces in order from left to right: the maguro, albacore, sea bream, and toro. The maguro truly melted in my mouth. The albacore was delicious with a surprisingly generous portion. The sea bream was probably my least favorite of the lineup but still very good. The toro was easily my personal favorite, and I could have eaten 100 of those. Each order comes with two pieces which made trying different options even better. I also got the baked mussels and wowowowow they were so good. I genuinely wanted to order another round but I was already full. This is the closest spot I have found to an omakase style experience without actually doing a full omakase. It has more flavor, great presentation, and a little extra dazzle instead of just plain fish on rice. The only downside was that parking was a bit tough, but it was absolutely worth it for the quality of the meal. Highly recommend!

One of the first things that caught my attention was the pricing. All of the AYCE restaurants I've been to always have separate lunch and dinner rates, but Kanji has an incredible deal of ONLY $30 all day long for their full menu + buffet AND it is so worth it! I loved that everything is made to order, so every sushi roll, hibachi, and teriyaki dish arrived fresh, hot, and nicely prepared! Beyond the sushi and hibachi, the buffet selection was fantastic. I was able to try everything from meaty crab legs and seafood boil to wings and wontons! I felt like every craving I had was satisfied here. A unique touch to the buffet is the sauce bottle section. I'm a huge fan of yum yum sauce and spicy mayo, so being able to add as much as I wanted to each bite made my experience so much better and tastier! The most important highlight of my experience was the service! Most times at AYCE sushi spots, it can take forever to receive my order... meanwhile at Kanji, my sushi order came out on a BOAT. I was beyond surprised at the beautiful presentation and how kind the server was to remind my table which rolls was which. Our server was so quick and attentive, making sure that our experience was enjoyable from start to finish! I truly loved my experience here at Kanji and highly highly recommend it! It's the perfect spot to bring friends and family to enjoy a fun and satisfying dining experience.
