I went on a random Tuesday evening with my two daughters. Our experience was delightful! Excellent food was a big part of our awesome experience, but also, the service staff, the chef and even other patrons were great! We ordered the calamari appetizer & it was better than most I've had elsewhere. I sent my compliments to the chef, & some minutes later, the waitress comes to me & says, " he came outside but he was to shy to come talk to you" , I thought that was so adorable :) My 7 yr old wanted kid-chopsticks, while the restaurant had none, the gentleman seated next to our table overheard us & rigged one up for my daughter. Our waitress was no-fuss yet efficient. We only had sushi at this occasion (which was superb) but their Mongolian stir fry bowl seems really good, so I'll hopefully try that on my next visit. Yes, there is definitely going to be a next visit!

We love Kawa! It is always hard to decide between the Mongolian Buffet - style bar or the Sushi, but both excel. The staff if friendly but can sometimes be overwhelmed, as Kawa can become very busy on weekend nights. A lot of the weekend activity is confined the the separate bar area, but lots of large groups come in which can take up a lot of space in this otherwise huge restaurant. For sushi, the quality is good and you get a lot for what you pay for. The domestic and international beer selection is a plus.

Good sushi for a reasonable price. We came here because my sister is vegetarian. There are many veggie roll options for her. She got a sweet potato roll, asparagus roll, and cucumber avocado roll. We also got a dynamite roll, fallen angel, and a spicy tuna roll. All very good. Good service.

Food is decent. Service is eh, hit or miss. A lot of young servers that don't seem to care or know much. Problem here is that they don't work the hours that they claim to be open. It's a general problem with sushi places in this area it seems. Hours say they are open until 9:30 on Sundays. Showed up at 8:55, plenty of time to get in, order, eat and get out. Walked in and they asked us how many, said two and then the hostess proceeds to tell us that they're only doing carryout. Why are you asking how many in our party then? Mentioned the time and why she asked and the hostess told us that's what her boss said. Won't waste our time with this place in the future. You lost customers Kawa and we will spread the word. Good job. Might want to serve during your advertised hours going forward. There's nothing that says you only so carry out after a certain time.
