This is some of the best sushi I have ever had. Very nice place and clean. Workers here are all super cool too. Can't wait to go back for more. You can get all you can eat or order by the roll.

Stopped in here for lunch today, always worried about new restaurants and the quality of their food. But these pictures were literally taken from my phone, The food really looks that good. And it taste even better. The staff was very polite, come with a big appetite because it’s all you can eat and very affordable. But you must eat what you buy as they are very against wasteful food. With that being said, this is probably my new favorite restaurant of all time. I will be coming back and you should too!

What a great dinner experience. It was our first time, and our waitress, Jessica, made us feel right at home. The best part was the service—it's so efficient! Food just flows to the table. Dishes are brought out the second they're prepared, so everything is incredibly fresh. It’s an impressive system that leads to a wonderful, fast-paced meal. Beautiful presentation on every dish. Five stars, easily.

Kanpai was awesome to say the least! My partner and I often find ourselves dining at AYCE sushi places all over the country as we travel frequently. We were more than happy with our choice to dine at Kenpai. The interior of the restaurant is vibrant and fun, lots of fun lights and decor. We really enjoyed the artificial cherry blossom trees and music at a reasonable level. For a very reasonable price the menu is relatively large with many options for the whole family starting from appetizers, soups, salads, hibachi, noodles, rolls, nigiri, hand rolls, sashimi and more! The appetizers were tasty and our sushi was fresh and delicious! We highly recommend anything on the menu, especially the nigiri! The service was prompt and friendly, and everything came out relatively quickly even though it was a busy Saturday night. We will absolutely be coming back here when we make it back to town!

Wish I knew Japanese to use an adjective. I guess thank you Jesus will do! Ever since I've been to Sushi Bomb near Pittsburgh I wanted a restaurant in Youngstown. We'll, we got it. The service is excellent, food tastes great and fresh. The atmosphere is all you can eat inducing. This is my favorite restaurant in town now.

Best all u can eat sushi place by far. Everything was great all the way down to even the 90s love songs track. There was over 130 items to pick from. Steak Udon noodles and even steak fried rice. Best bang for ur buck. Check out my order receipt. Not sure how the other sushi places around going to compete. 29 bucks for adults. 14 bucks for kids. Mahala was our server and he was awesome.

Ate here for the first time tonight, and I’d definitely come back! I will say tho if you come on a busy weekend night, be prepared to wait about 20-30 minutes. However it’s a good price for the amount of apps & sushi you can choose from, and our server (I think her name was Selina?) was very funny & friendly. There were two birthdays, one at the table behind us, and they do a cute little song and dessert with a sparkler. I got miso soup, takoyaki, 2 eel nigiri, 1 salmon nigiri, 1 tamago nigiri, and a pink lady roll. All of the fried apps & rolls at our table were amazing, but I did notice with the others the sushi rice had been made with too much rice wine vinegar in it (I am both a sushi snob & I’ve made this mistake at home, just worse, and made inedible rice). It wasn’t horrible, but it took the flavor away from the eel, salmon, and tamago I had. Overall really good tho!
