Very good karaage! The lettuce salad also has excellent seasoning. My only complaint is that they aren’t located in the Burlington area.

Found this cute place exactly same as my name and had to come by!! Delicious food, super friendly and hospitable restaurant owners❤️ me and my friend got curry and katsu don and as a Japanese curry lover I can tell the curry here is the real deal (not from the curry packs)! The aroma when you walk in is just heaven like and you can tell they’re definitely serious about their food! Another highlight is how green they are, it just amazes me all the utensils and containers they use are paper/bamboo/glasses and in a fast-paced wasteful world we are in today it’s just almost impossible to find a restaurant like this. If you’re also trying to make a positive impact in the world and love authentic curry and great food- you need to visit!

Amazing! I would call this a cafe-like experience. The traditions in food and service set Kaiju apart from most. The menu changes over time, so go to the website for the latest. Ordering is easy. The food is authentic and amazing. Give it a try while you’re in beautiful St. Albans City!!

The cold ramen salad was perfect! Very refreshing and tasty. The Ginger pork was very tender and flavorful. Stumbled upon the restaurant by accident and it was an absolutely perfect stumble! Service was phenomenal. I’d give them 10 stars if I could.

Best food in St. Albans hands down. It is a small carefully curated menu. Everything is fantastic. The care and thought put into each dish is evident. Thoughtful combinations of fresh and bright elements deliver satisfying depth of flavor. Generous portions and great prices. We have been trying every restaurant in the area to find our staple places and this takes the top spot for sure.

Run by a kind and welcoming family, serving authentic Japanese food and drink. They even give you a little oshibori before your meal! I recommend trying the maple matcha, it’s sweet and refreshing. Our family loves it, and we plan to come back next time we’re in town.

A great place to grab lunch or dinner. Excellent food and service. You can take out or eat outside or at the counter area. There is an online ordering system, or you can order at the location on a kiosk while Taka is coming, or in person from Liz. Liz is friendly and energetic and Taka makes amazing food. This is a family owned restaurant and you can tell the whole family is involved in giving the place a great vibe with lots of small details to notice.

Stopped by today because it seemed like the only place in town that offers boba tea! The bitterness of the matcha with the brown sugar tapioca boba made it such a delicious drink! I also order the melopan bread and it exceeded my expectations. Stop by and give this place a try! Inside you’ll find so many artwork and cool things that you will never stop looking.

I had a beautiful lunch at Kaiju Kitchen. The food was fresh and delicious. I was served by the owner who cares very much about the quality of his business. There were also many small details that made my experience wonderful. I highly recommend going in for a tasty meal!
