Reviews Kitchen Hanzo

Very impressive food! Every plate was awesome! I loved the seasoning and the freshness! All dishes were prepared in front of us Personally I really enjoyed the fried chicken, pork pancake and the tempura They serve Goya! It remembered my mom’s food Good service but there is no reservation (get early)

The best overall restaurant experience I've had a while. Since my trip to Japan, I've spent a good amount good amount of time looking for a Japanese izakaya in metro Detroit. You can look up a technical definition of an izakaya restaurant on wikipedia, but to me the key is the combination of high quality a la carte dishes, cheap drinks, and an ultra casual atmosphere. So far Kitchen Hanzo is the only place in the area that has come even close; the only differences being that the seating is not private and they're only open until midnight. We hung out for a little over two hours and thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere in the dining area and kitchen (arriving after and leaving before several groups). During that time we tried their salmon onigiri, tonpeiyaki, yakiniku salad, agedashi tofu, and takosu all while knocking back nama (draft) Sapparos. Everything was fantastic, but the tonpeiyaki and agedashi tofu were the standouts. Kitchen Hanzo comes at my highest recommendation for those who've been to Japan and miss izakayas, but also to anyone looking for a top-notch, authentic Japanese dining experience.

most all nice small dishes. no single person big meal plate.

Excellent izakaja style bar. The food is amazing, great selection of saké
