Kyatchi

I've been visiting on and off since 2017-18. The menu has a lot of great options inspired by Japanese cuisine. Parking is street and can be tough when busy. The inside is nice and I have always had good staff experiences and recommendations. Korokke - (this was a special) 4x fried potato croquettes. Corn, peas, carrots, kewpie mayo, tonkatsu sauce and bonito flakes. Really yummy almost like comfort food. Tsukune Skewers- chicken meatballs. Delish Shishito Skewers - Japanese chill pepper I love shishito peppers. Really good. Kaisen Yakisoba -Japanese egg noodles, shrimp, scallops, cabbage, onion, poached egg, red ginger. Japanese mayo, seaweed flakes. A lot of noodles and good flavor. Botaneb - spot prawn - unique but not a normal order. More fun to try. Suzuki - (under the Oshizushi part of the menu) sea bass, shiso leaf, black pepper, side of yuzu ponzu. This was my favorite. It was so delightful. Old Fashioned- Sesame Fat-Washed Suntory Toki, Thyme Simple Syrup, Cardamom & Umami BittersKara-age - (small plates) marinated, fried chicken cutlets with lemon and Japanese mayo Kinoko dog - mushrooms sauteed in butter and soy with ParmesanKabocha Coffee Cake - Japanese kabocha squash pumpkin spice cake Always will visit again

Went on a Friday night since they stayed open pretty late and have also ordered sushi here a few times. Overall, I love the sushi here- it's fresh and there's fun combos. The menu has a lot of Japanese goodies as well- Oniguri's, donburi's, sushi, ramen, even other fusion dishes. I had the ramen and the broth was a little salty for my tastes, but the ingredients were delicious. Service is okay- I couldn't figure out if it was a sit yourself situation since the host stand was in the back. Overall, I love the vibe, especially at night. Reminds me of an izakaya

The food is a little overrated, especially for its price. On average, our spending was about $20 per person and none of us were full. Portion sizes are tiny and the taste of the food wasn't that good. Service also took at least 20 minutes, and we were seated around 9pm, so we didn't expect the wait times for food to be that long. Overall rating: 5/10

Good sushi and good service! There's plenty of other dishes to try like ramen, rice toppings, and a variety of drinks. For kids they even have ramune on top of your regular soda selection; Cool ambiance with a Japanese baseball theme. Worth it for a date or even a group dinner!

I have been here twice, once in 2017 and once a week ago (2024), and I know that their Tonkatsu has remained the same since it looks exactly the same as it did 7 years ago. Regardless, I had a good experience here overall, and I would recommend it to people if they ask about Japanese food within the Twin Cities.For the agedashi tofu, our server poured the liquid after the tofu was brought to our table, which was the first time I have seen it done that way in the Twin Cities. The tonkatsu contained a good amount of rice and meat which was great, but the "potato salad" was bland, which I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be the case. Having some cucumbers and grape tomatoes was good for me, but I still wasn't sure if that was normal. Regardless, I liked it. Other than those, I enjoyed the ramen and the chicken kara.age as well. They were as good as I imagined they would be.In terms of the nigiri and maki rolls, I thought they were overpriced and there were not enough to fill up my friend's stomach. She had to order additional rolls to ensure that she could get a decent amount of food to be full. Our bill accumulated quickly and ended up being beyond what we had expected.One thing I would also mention is that Kyatchi is located in a good location that makes it very convenient for those in the King Field area to go there, including walking. If people ask me to recommend 5 Japanese restaurants in the Twin Cities, then I would mention this establishment.

My daughter and I visited Kyatchi in the summer of 2022 and loved it so much we remembered it to return almost exactly a year later, this summer 2023. If I'd reviewed it then I'd have given it 5 stars. This summer, what a disappointment it was! We specifically loved their seaweed salad, which had been unlike all others because it contained at least 3 types of seaweed. Between the three of us, we ordered 4 - only they were sold out. Boo. But you know, sometimes it happens...But then we ordered a cocktail and they were sold out of that too. Huh? And then to top it off, our waiter was terrible. He was sullen and got FOUR things wrong with our order. When I pay $250 for dinner for three people the least I expect is that the order is correct. The sushi was good - but in the twin cities there are tons of other options that offer good sushi for half the price. High note: The "summer role" sushi roll ($30) was phenomenal

We really like Kyarchi. Not only it has good sushi, sashimi, ramen, and also interesting Japanese hotdog . You gotta try them. My toddlers also like the children menu. The rice, and chicken meat ball is my toddlers fav. We enjoy the various dishes we ordered, as well as their drink and dessert. The servers are very friendly, and the restaurant's environment is well-decorated and clean. Recommended.

Love Kyatchi. Came here for my birthday and got my favorite-the tonkatsu. Quick service and good vibes. FYI you can't tip on your card so bring cash, or you might be able to Venmo your server.

GREAT quality of the fish, and the prices are totally acceptable! Great service & lots of seats available during weekend lunch time. Would definitely visit again!

Went to Kyatchi tonight after seeing all the great reviews with high expectations. When we sat down and saw the prices I definitely expected it to be good if they were willing to charge that amount of money for sushi. None of the food was very good except for the ramen bowl. Everything was insanely overpriced. We ordered a $26.5 roll that had about $1 worth of sushi on it, I shit you not. It was totally ridiculous. I've been to plenty of good sushi restaurants and this was not it. And as if that wasn't enough, there is a 19 percent surcharge to replace tips that they put at the top of the menu. But I guess that's what you get when there are 2 Mexicans making the sushi. Seriously, save your money and please do not go here, I cannot believe they had the audacity to charge that kind of money for such low quality food
