Very good Kiama dining option. Fresh Japanese cuisine. Great value and friendly service

This is a little gem, terrific food, oh! Those tempura prawns and miso baked eggplant. We had the salmon greentea soba noodles and salad (a special), chicken yakatori and one serve of the salmon mini sushi, not so mini, all was delicious, of course we over ordered but were determined to not waste any. It never disappoints and can't wait to return. Cost was good value and service was welcoming but was quite busy at peak time.

Despite getting off to a rocky start, Kai Japanese restaurant was a great experience. Despite the restaurant being very busy there was no huge delay in getting dinner. Staff were attentive also. The meals we had were delicious and despite some other reviewers complaining about serving size our were great. Would definitely recommend this place and will be back to enjoy the food again!

Ordered sushi takeaway and was told it would take 30 minutes only after we ordered. Rolls were over $15 and extremely small - fine tasting but nothing special at all. The menu stated that the rolls came with mayonnaise on top - nothing, we had to ask for mayo. Would not have paid more than $8 for these anywhere else. We came back after 25 minutes and was told twice over that it would be an extra 10 minutes. 50 minutes after ordering we went inside and waited at the counter and saw that they had only just started making the last two rolls. The restaurant was not busy at all and there were 3 people working in the kitchen. A family of four came in when we came back to collect our food and had their food brought out within 10-15 minutes while we were still waiting out the front. No apologies or explanations. How disappointing.

Small amount of food and pricey for that amount of food. The lady owner's attitude is so bad and rude. she looks like she does not care about customers. she needs to learn how to serve to customers if she continues to run the business. I felt so unlucky to pick up this restaurant from googling.
