Got a to-go order, something I do about two-three times a month, and got the yellowtail dinner (maki and nigiri). The fish was old and tasted off. You can look at the nigiri and see the sections of fish are separating, which means it is old and should never be served by a sushi place. Well, one of the owners prepped the sushi, saw the fish was old, and served it anyway. Not a good look. I'm giving them 3 stars because I'm taking this as an exception, but will stay away for a while. Too bad.

The food overall has always been consistently good, they've never changed; not even their spicy mayo and I love that so much!! All of the appetizers, entrees, sushi & drinks are phenomenal.

Out of all the sushi places in Worcester, Kai's is top notch for me. Argue with your mama!

Got into the coveted Tuna cutting experience. They only allow 30 people or so and the event is…read moremaybe once a month, but or fewer. Once they announce it, you need to call immediately or get shut out. My observation about the place itself. The U shaped bar is gigantic for the space. It's a bar-bar too not like a sushi counter. This seems to draw a crowd of local drinkers rather than the normal sushi crowd. You feel like you walked into a sports bar. The place was really loud and it was hard to hear the chef explaining everything. Once seated... it's the chefs carving the tuna off to the side. There were 2 bar tenders making drinks and like 3 chefs cutting tuna.... other than that, no waitstaff. Which is really odd. You have to grab the manager who was running around helping to get your Wasabi refilled. Not to mention they gave zero place settings for about 8 of us, until we asked. The bar tenders seemed to pass over my empty drink until I asked for a refill too. It's a more chaotic event than I would have liked for $120 per person. It also takes time to carve the tuna so if you arrive hungry be prepared to not get your first tiny bite until 45 minutes after the start. The star was Chef Timmy. Honestly he was awesome. The tuna.... so good. You end to with only 3 pieces of Nigiri which was a little disappointing but the sashimi part was unlimited. Of course you have to take your plate up and ask for some. They only put about 6 small pieces of the various cuts per trip. I think I went up 5 times for sashimi alone. The tuna handrolls you can make yourself or ask the chef nicely. Those were really good. Probably best I ever had because it's so fresh. There is a limited amount of the highly prized (and highly priced) Kamatoro, but you can experience it here as it's included in the experience. That's a hard cut to find. The finale was a shot of tuna spinal fluid. My first time with that but it's not bad. You're probably looking at $150 per person unless you order alcohol than it's alot more. The fresh cut tuna is amazing. I'm glad I did it. The chaos and the setting made it less than ideal. I don't think I would go again to this location for it. One and done. It's a bit weird that you're paying $120 for this and you're still intermingled with local patrons just there to grab some beers after work and watch the game. Because of the massive bar it is impossible to create a space secluded to do it. They also should have a roaming waiter at least taking care of the 30 people who came for this experience.

Absolutely delicious!…read more Stumbled on this place after attending an event in Worcester. Quick little five minute drive and we were there. We were greeted instantly and were met with the beautiful artwork on the walls of the restaurant. The atmosphere of the place was very chill in the best ways. Our server was kind and service was prompt. The smaller dishes really are the perfect amounts of food. We opted for the chicken karaage as an appetizer and it was absolutely delicious. My boyfriend had a Japanese wine that he loved so much we ended up going to a store to buy some for home. Would absolutely go back to this establishment and try some of the other items!

For every family…read morecelebration, for every get together with larger groups of family friends, this was the default choice for us. Naturally, we kept coming back because the food has never disappointed us. Located in Marketplace Shrewsbury plaza, you will find no shortage of parking spots when arriving. Maybe I'm weird, but I also think it is very amusing that it shares the same plaza with Reliant Medical Group and just next to them is Hooters. Something-something there has to be some kind America and Freedom joke that can be made here. Upon entering, you will see a large corner pond and fountain filled with koi fish. Even to this day I still find myself getting a little lost listening to the running water and staring at the fish. Adjacent is the larger countertop bar area and the server whom will guide you to your seat. The service here is fine but I don't know what it is but I always feels like I am being rushed when I'm eating. The servers walk around too quickly and clean up your plate moments after you finish. Maybe it's weird to complain about lightning fast service. I think this is my first buffet review and I'm not sure how to go about this. I've eaten here countless times and I've never once had the opinion that any of the food felt old or spoiled. I grab basically one of everything and I always enjoy my overflowing plates of food. I am a fiend for the coconut shrimp and black bean sauce mussels. The crawfish are extremely flavorful and I always make sure to pack along a pair of gloves because I am a glutton. I think the only food item that disappoints me are the halved crabs. Almost every time I get them, it seems like the meat has no flavor at all. It kind of feels like a waste of food and $$ to serve them buffet style when they're so mediocre I really enjoy that they have two large sections dedicated to cold items like jello and cut fruits. It's perfect for me because I'm always the last person to continue eating the heavier stuff and I feel bad if I'm with a partner or friends and they can't eat another bite. There's always room for desserts! This place isn't perfect and there are other places I prefer when I'm in the mood to drive further and spend a little more... but this place is only $20.95 for dinner. That is an incredible deal for good food and it completely invalidates any complaints. 5 out 5 stars.

I got the spicy ramen and my partner got the chicken non spicy one, please refer to pics as I forgot the name... highly recommend getting the chicken ramen, the broth is light and savory, additionally lots of protein and veggies to make it the perfect ramen bowl. The spicy ramen was okay, I love spice but this one was a bit starchy as if too much starch was used to thicken the broth. The noodles were also way too soft; and there's very little protein. I got beansprout as an add on and that was $2; a bit much if added onto the bowl.
