And that is what you'll find at Kaisen, fresh, seasonal, unique fish prepared in just the right way. It's about simplicity and the perfection of absolutely fresh fish prepared in exactly the right way. Good sushi isn't about trying to cram as many ingredients as possible in one roll or hiding the flavor of the fish beneath "spicy aioli." It's about the fish itself. Secondly if you have come to expect every other sushi roll contain cream cheese, a million ingredients, and a bunch of different sauces you may not like the real deal. In most Tampa Bay area restaurants it is either not seasoned or the flavor is undetectable. Sushi rice is supposed to be seasoned and have a very slightly tangy flavor. Now if you have never really had truly authentic sushi you may be in for a bit of a shock. The minute I put a piece of his sushi in my mouth and tasted the properly seasoned rice my mind was blown and the memories of the authentic Japanese sushi I fell in love with at an early age came flooding back. Until I set foot in the restaurant of Ryo Iwabuchi, Kaisen's chef/owner. At the time I had been in the Tampa Bay area for about three years and had forgotten what truly good sushi was like. I've been coming to Kaisen ever since I discovered it's original location in Mission Bell Plaza about 15 years ago. There is a large health food store two or three doors down and a Pizza Hut in the front as landmarks. Kaisen Sushi is located in a plaza on the east side of Dale Mabry at its intersection with Bearrs Ave.

If you want some insight of what can truly happen with sushi mastery watch the movie "Jiro Dreams of Sushi." If you want the most authentic and very best sushi Tampa has to offer visit Kaisen Sushi in Carrollwood.

In traditional Japanese culture a person wanting to become a sushi chef apprentices for many years doing nothing but learning how to properly make the rice and watching the master chef before ever being allowed to touch the fish itself. It starts with knowledge of the fish and the ability of the chef to select the best one, to be able to take it apart expertly and know the best way to handle each filet. Is there a difference between a kid out of high school working as a line cook at Steak and Shake and a classically trained chef at Bern's? Yeah, there is a huge difference. Is there a difference? Well, let me ask you this. Having lived in Asia and knowing the Asian restaurant industry in Tampa very well I can tell you that unless you dine at one of less than a half dozen restaurants in the area you're not getting the real thing.
It seems like these days there is a sushi bar in every strip mall and every other Thai restaurant serves sushi. In Tampa Bay this is incredibly hard to find since the vast majority of places serving sushi are. I've been eating it for over 35 years and as with any ethnic cuisine I love truly authentic Japanese food. I really like Samurai Blue in Ybor but wish we could find something near N Dale Mabry. I see many good reviews here from people that must really like their Sushi but it's not for the Roll lovers. I could honestly say that these were the worst Rolls I ever ate and thought that Publix made better rolls. Green onion was in many rolls and took over the flavor as well. The Rolls were basic with such a lack of creativity. They have a set of "Special" Sushi Rolls on the menu that they also have on a stand-up card on the tables (Same Rolls, listed twice). I should have know that this was not the place for sushi rolls when I looked at the paper sushi menu and there were like 6 Rolls on the menu. We like to order Sushi rolls (Makimono) and like a mix of Cooked and Raw rolls. try.įirst impressions were mixed: Friendly (Non Asian) wait staff, Strange mix of Rock music playing, but the place was clean and fairly busy. So we heard good things about Kaisen and live close by so we thought we'd give it a. Sushi Kabuki in Seminole was that place for us. So we moved to Tampa from Pinellas last Oct and wanted to find our Go To Sushi place.
