People will literally wait outside for 1.5 hours for an affordable restaurant EDIT: they have started serving on paper plates and with plastic utensils. Yuck.

Like the other 1 star review said. This place was so bad. Don’t understand why they have such a good review 4.5?!?!? So dirty, table oily stinky. The food was cold, tasted terrible.

The way they take reservations is you need to show up at least an hour prior to opening and write your name down with your party size.

Do they have big plates of curry

gregory m | Oct 7, 2021
mephilatian | Oct 7, 2021

Not curry-lee, I mean not currently. They have normal curry (katsu, ebi fry, hamburg steak) but not the Jumbo Curry. Right now they're a bit understaffed and exhausted.

Does this place only allow people who are 21 And up to go inside ?

No. Before being seated they will ask at entrance if you will be drinking to show ID.

Jessica Catelak | Oct 7, 2021

Yes Kenka closes at 10pm now Even before covid they had changed to an earlier closing time. I miss the late night drinks and snacks

Is this place family friendly? Can I bring my kids?

Ron Eng | Oct 7, 2021
Bubbz | Oct 7, 2021

No, there is shibari and other perverse art everywhere.

Is there gyudon?

Bubbz | Oct 7, 2021
Michelle Sy | Oct 7, 2021

Yes, they do if I remember correctly. *was there 3 days ago*

Do they have limited indoor dining now?

Omari Primus | Oct 7, 2021
Kelvin Lam | Oct 7, 2021

Not inside, theres roughly 2, 3 tables out at the usual waiting area

Are they doing outdoor seating?

Ali. P. | Oct 7, 2020
mephilatian | Oct 7, 2020

No, not at the moment. They'll probably lose more money if they start business for outdoor dining only. Hopefully, they'll consider it now that Cuomo is allowing limited indoor dining.

Do they do anything for birthdays?

Dan Austin | Oct 7, 2020

They give you a drink, sing you a song, then give you a bill.

Do they have vegan options?

Vedant Gupta | Oct 7, 2020
Stephen K | Oct 7, 2020

Others say "yes" but in reality the menu is NOT vegan friendly. Japanese cuisine as a whole does not easily accommodate vegans. If you come here your options will pretty much be only vegetable fried rice.
