Example: Beautiful decor! They gave us some free champagne since were there for our honeymoon. The tasting menu is very decadent, with caviar and truffles. If you like sushi, this is the place to go.

Example: This is one of my favorite places to drink beer in Charlotte.  I usually don't drive out to the Music Factory just to come here, but I am ALWAYS pre-gaming at this place before a show at the Fillmore or the amphitheater.  I get just as excited about coming here as I do about the actual concerts themselves....That's saying something!\n\nI can always count on VBGB offering up a beer on tap that I've never tried before.  It's always such an adventure!  It's all craft beer here folks.  The food is very basic, but I like that.  I'm not looking for an expensive meal when I'm trying to get my drink on, just something to keep me going.  If you try anything at all, go with the pretzel & beer cheese.  It's terrific.  A great munchie to keep you grounded after all those high gravity brews!

Example: We tried the fish and chips.  It was mouth watering, including the crust.\nThe fries were fresh.  Best of this I have had in LV

Example: Food here was delicious, i would have given 5 stars if it wasn't for the service. Yes, service was that bad. And I believe Matt our server was the owner or manager. All of our table got the feeling that we were bothering him somehow, it wasn't even busy. He would run away as soon as he dropped off our drinks before we could even ask for cream for coffee, I stared at him for 20 minutes trying to get his attention before I retired and asked another server who looked much busier than him. Same story with our food, he HANDED us our food to pass around to whoever it belonged to and ran away as soon as his hands were free- wait ranch! Everything look ok? Nope, he was gone. And didn't return until he brought the check, joy. No eye contact, smile, or thanks for coming in. We will not be returning.

Example: Service was ok. Food was nothing special with prices in the stratosphere. They'll charge you $3 to split a plate.

Example: Love the Hanoi Pho and spring roll. Nice plump shrimp too. Do yourself a favor...it's far from a fashion spot, just real good eats. Reminds of what SF's Tenderloin excellent Cambodian and Vietnamese were back before everything cost an arm n a leg.

Example: I expected more because of the way people amp this place up but the dogs aren't that good to me. They're ok. Homemade chili cheese dogs taste better. Just my opinion though, you may think otherwise.

Example: No, no, no, no no!!!\n\nNo water except on jug on each nine. Saw cart girl once in four hours. Greens are terrible. Bumpy, no grass, poorly maintained. I'd never play this course again

Considreing the above, classify the following: The Verdict : Banal and pricey!\n\nWhy this restaurant\nI was always suspicion and not enthusiast about Kaizen. We decided to give it a try on a Sunday night because the japanese bistro/sushi we chose was closed.\n\n:-s  The First Impression\nNot a good! When a restaurant greets you with a bad taste advertising (girl holding a katana with sushi on it!!), it is always a bad sign.\n\n:-)   The Service\nPeople were friendly. Service was quick and pleasant. Nothing to complaint. Perhaps it explains my 2 stars.\n\n:-/   The Decor\nIt is not very Japanese! If one takes off the Japanese paintings and the big buddha it resembles any French or Italian or ... restaurant. Decor is very subjective so I won't further comment but it wasn't to my taste.\n\n:-(   The Food\nOh boy! There was no wow factor, no discovery... just ordinary... no more no less. I had fresher fish elsewhere in Montreal. Please don't take the grilled squid, not worth it. The tempuras (veggies) lacked the crunchiness it is supposed to have. Sushis were OK. Perhaps we were hungry. The Spider maki (soft shell crab) was not good... I think I don't need to go on!\n\n:-S  The Ambiance\nNothing to say here: just a regular restaurant. However it has live jazz on certain night. Jazz? Really? In a sushi restaurant? I like jazz but this goes with my comment on the decor.\n\n$$   Price\nThe bill doesn't reflect the quality of the food! At 100$ for two without wine (including service and tax) it is not worth it. I can have the same OK food elsewhere for half the price.\n\nPerhaps my overall harsh critics comes from the fact that the sushis are pretty ordinary but overpriced! I have eaten at many sushi restaurants and Kaizen is pretty much at the bottom of the list because of this. You deserve more for your money!\n\nPV.
