kabuki has got to be one of the worst sushi restaurants ive ever been to. i love sushi, so im always looking for a new place to try. when im going out to eat with friends, kabuki seems to be the sushi 'no-brainer', but the food is awful; the portions of the rolls are cheap, and the flavor is nothing to write home about. its hard to walk away satisfied with small portions at such a high price, and feel good about what you ate and paid for. in my opinion, theyre much too expensive for the quality. i like to compare kabuki to the mcdonalds of sushi restaurants. ive been here quite a few times for parties, friend gatherings, etc, and its always the same, ive come to the conclusion that its just that their food is BELOW PAR for people who truely love sushi and know what quality is! like i said before, the portions are skimpy, the fish isnt too fresh, and really, my taste buds were insulted! the service at the restaurant in old town pasadena is terrible, too. i sat for almost 30 mins waiting for a drink refill and my check, i finally got so irritated that i went to the front desk to ask for my check and didnt leave a tip! it wasnt busy at all, so why should i tip a lazy waitress?! if you want great sushi at a cheaper price for larger portions try Niko Niko in Burbank! ;]
Pros: a lot of seating, nice ambience, clean, sushi no-brainer
Cons: bad fish, skimpy portions, high prices, lazy wait staff
