Fun and delicious as usual. The one thing I will say is that it was obvious that some of the chefs are “more fun” than others. We could hear a lot of laughs and see a much more elaborate show at the next table over. Seems like some of the chefs could use a little more “showmanship”.

Always a favorite for over 40 plus years. My wife and I moved away from Raleigh and are only able to go to Kanki when we visit our children in Raleigh. We’re moving back soon to the area to retire to be closer to our family and are looking forward to being regulars at Kanki again in near future!

It was such a fun experience and our chef was great at entertaining with all sorts of cool tricks. Our favorite part of course was all the fire! All of the staff were nice and helpful. We will be back!

it was about 45 minutes once we got to the table before we ate, The food was outstanding but the service was terrible. first ...asked for lemon for my tea. Never got it. Asked twice. Refills ...he refilled my glass with no ice. Asked for some more ice...never got it. If I go out to eat i do expect to get good service. If I get good service...I will leave a good tip. If I don't get good service I won't leave you a dime. Needless to say....I didn't leave him a thing. Several people at the table also commented on his service. Guess he was looking for some free money but he didn't get it from me. But the food is always great. Had a nice funny cook. He was great

I have eaten at many Japanese Steakhouses over the years, but this was my favorite. We had the BEST chef named Mozart !!! We were celebrating my son’s birthday and Mozart made us laugh so much! He really made it special. And to top It off the food was fresh and delicious.
