Kazoku is always a delight. We come often! We came here after our daughter was born and then again when she turned one. They were so generous & accommodating with our girls on top of the always delicious sushi. Thank you so much for a wonderful evening!

Absolutely delicious! The service was excellent, as well. We were very impressed by how attentive our server was. He went above and beyond to make sure our order was perfect. Prices are extremely fair, and portion sizes are great. I would highly recommend stopping in.

This is a small place but has get staff and awesome food. This was our first visit but will not be our last. The food selection was great. The portion sizes were large. As five adults we were more that satisfied with a couple of appetizers, 1 special roll each and a few pieces of sushi and sashimi. The sashimi pieces were large and impressive. The sauce on the cherry blossom roll was sweet and negated the need for soy sauce. We were the only people eating in the restaurant but they had a steady stream of take out orders. They had background noise but it wasn't loud or obnoxious, which is so understated. I would recommend this to anyone looking for good sushi. For the record, we normally eat at Kyotos in Eagan. Kyoto's is all you can eat but I think this place has larger portions. In the end we didn't need multiple orders of items. We left full but not over stuffed. The price here a bit higher but I believe it is a good value. Take some friends to share the special rolls.

We had a group of five for dinner and everyone agreed this was fantastic experience. Really friendly service, delicious food, and clean atmosphere. Recommended items to order (based on what we ordered) - calamari, Korean short ribs, and prison break roll Portions are really worth the price. Honestly, this is a hidden gem in Burnsville. if you are in the area, you won't regret your visit.

This is a great little restaurant with very kind staff and a nice environment. Particularly, having my grandparents with us, they are very kind and accommodating to sometimes peculiar needs. I've had their Ramen, and it is solid. The Miso starter is delightful. Their sushi is great and being able to watch the sushi bar is fun.

I went here with a friend on 7/14/2024. I walked in when the restaurant was about to close their early shift. They were going to open again around 4 pm. Anyway, they still accepted us. The owner was very nice. He gave us our miso soup right away. We were both hungry, so we got the chef's special. It was the perfect amount of food for two people. The staff was very friendly and greeted us warmly. The restaurant was clean and organized. I like it. It was very comfortable to be there.

This place is a great value. Fresh fish, and the rice is great quality and not mushy which is surprisingly hard to find around here. Rolls are creative, well made and tasty. Best of all, not too much sauce which I really appreciate! It means they have confidence in their ingredients and technique. When we visited, there were only a few other parties, one chef and one server. Service was great, but not sure if they would hold up if it was busier. Regardless we really enjoyed Kazoku and will definitely be back.

Their staff is super nice, good atmosphere and awesome sushi. I love that they have a picture of each roll on the menu with a short description. The sexy lobster roll is my favorite along with their sashimi cuts. Added- they have the best chirashi, Best salad dressing and they have sashimi tacos that are amazing!
