The overall hospitality of the staff was amazing!
The food, ambience, safety measures everything was to the point!
A special mention to "Prince Dhingra" who hosted and served us! The dining experience wouldn't have been this amazing without him! Definitely would recommend going to this place for authentic japanese!
Loved the ambiance and the sushi at Kampai! The ramen was a little salty, but the courteous staff made up for it!
Great place to have Japanese cuisine in Delhi NCR.
Today we decided to visit this place after much deliberation of the risks of Covid 19 and I am glad to say that they have take extremely good measures to sanatize you.
We chose the intimate japanese seating area and oh boy, that was superb, spacious, japanese futon style seating, room cosy and socially distanced ( We had a separate room altogether with closed doors and windows)
The server was fully covered and wrapped which was good.
We ordered the following things
1) Sushi Platter 12 peices ( Superb fresh and delicious)
2) Chicken Sui Mai ( I wish there were 6 peices as it becomes equal for 2 people).
3) Tantamen Ramen ( Rich broth with flavouresom ramen and toppings).
4) Matcha Ice Tea
Overall the food was delicious and the layout and experience really extra ordinary for the amount of price you pay for hygiene, quality of food and safety.
Would be coming again for Katsu Chicken Curry.
(PS : We wanted to order more but the quantity of the food was sufficient for two persons)
Went to Kampai for their unlimited sushi and dimsums lunch which was the best decision ever! They had a wide variety of dimsums and sushis, all of which tasted great! The Prawns and Garlic with Chives Dimsum in particular, was my favourite. Apart from these, we also had some great mocktails, in which Cherry Blow was simply refreshing! To end our feast, we availed the Dessert of the Day which was none other than their Cheesecake. Good food, great ambience and courteous staff - all these combined made my lunch memorable.
Really nice place. One of the best for Sushi. Everything we ordered was good, service was also excellent.
The food was really good and I loved the sushi

Delectable wok charred gyoza dumplings -simply irresistible.
We wanted to try this Japanese food and it happens to be Kampai. Quite surprised with the food and servings. Loved the authentic taste and flavours. Will be back soon ❤️❤️❤️
After hearing about this place from different food blogs had a chance to visit it on the 1st day of the new year 2020!
We were a tad late so missed on the brunch but none the less managed to go ahead with the ala carte..
The food was absolutely delicious and lipsmacking!
Right from the sushi rolls to the momos to their cocktails. Definitely coming back soon!
I visited kampai for a dinner with a friend. We had been waiting to try this place since the longest time, having heard from office colleague. The place was very nicely decorated. The food quality is satisfying from the presentation to the taste to the texture, all of it was simply amazing. The crowd was super swish. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. You can visit this place to hangout and have a good time with your friends.
Amazing service and food was delicious
Highly recommended place by a friend and it did not disappoint. Went veg this time because my sister was in town and it was still great. The beet root salad, veg sushi and dumplings were all really good. Would go back to try real sushi but this wasn't that bad either.
Rainbow sushi and tempura sushi are awesome ! Thumbs up for the trained chefs !
Fish soup s also nice.
Ordered ebi tempura too .... wish it had less oil.
Sake prices can be worked upon. 10k for a bottle is steep !
All in all .. definitely a must visit.
Thanks to our server Prince Dhingra.
Excellent food and service here, our server Ester took great care in suggesting and explaining the dishes we chose. Good options for kids in rice and curry also.
I loveeeee this place! Sushis to die for! Cocktails to die for! If you love Japanese food, this is the place to be!!
Service and ambience were very nice.
KAMPAI

•Potato korokke
•Ebi tempura
•Tori katsu curry
•Tokyo spritzer
The cherry blossom, tables, and everything creates an amazing dining experience.
Must must try!! .
Highly recommended!!! .

Kampai is the perfect place if you want to have authentic Japanese. We really loved the sushi here. The ambiance of this place is so mesmerising and perfect for a lunch or dinner. Their service is very good and the staff is courteous as well, specially mr Prince . Our overall experience was great. We would definitely visit kampai again. 😊
I had almost given up on finding an authentic Japanese restaurant in Delhi (aside of the very old Sakura at the Metropolitan) when I chanced upon Kampai on Zomato. I hadn’t heard of it otherwise but the ratings looked good and I decided to give it a shot.
Let me start of with the drinks- while the menu is extensive and includes Japanese essentials like a variety of shochus, sake and even Asahi beer for that matter, my cocktail ( which was a gin and tonic variant with plenty of good stuff on paper) was a huge disappointment. I did send it back a couple of times but the taste remained pretty much the same.
What made me forget my bad drink and rate this place a five was the amazing food I ate! For one, this is one of the ONLY places in Delhi with an All Japanese menu. They haven’t thrown in the usual red curries and green curries on the menu and have a variety of gyozas, undons, ramens etc and makes your realize that Japanese cuisine goes way beyond sushi. We ordered a spicy veg ramen, ebi tempura and crystal dumplings, all of which were awesome! I wanted to try so much more and will have to go back again soon to do justice to the menu. The place apparently has a Japanese visiting chef and had a number of Japanese guests, which is a great testimony in itself.
Kampai serves tasty, genuine Japanese nourishment which can be delighted in Japanese style in their two private diners.I attempted Japanese Slipper and Tokya Spritzer. Both the mixed drinks were fab. Wr brgna our dinner with Chirashi seasfood plate of mixed greens which was invigorating. Brie Tempura in vegetarin canapé was the best. Each and very sushi that I attempted was astonishing. Discussing thr primary course, I had Miso Ramen (Non-Veg). The amount of the dish is all that anyone could need for two individuals. The flavors were so great.
lovely place in Aerocity I had never tried sushi before this. But I’m in love with this dish after visiting this restaurant.
The ambiance is perfect. The staff is so courteous. The food was delicious. Quantity was good.
We had a perfect dinner.

Recently visited Kampai for a lunch. Its one of the best fine dine Japanese cuisine restaurant in Delhi. The chef has curated some of the best food from across Japan and you can certainly see the subtlety of fusion and culture in here. Few of the things which we have tried and absolutely loved it are -
1. Seaweed Potato Coquette
2. Brie Cheese Tempura
3. Salmon Sushi
4. Prawn Dimsum
5. Yaki Buta - Glazed Pork
6. Miso Ramen
The do have some of the classic cocktails based on Sake or you can try Sake straight.
I will 100% recommend this place if you love traditional or fusion Japanese food.
Kampai serves delicious, authentic Japanese food which can be enjoyed Japanese style in their two private diners. The furniture is minimal and sakura flower motifs adorn the roof. As for the food and drinks, the following were my favourite:
Yaki Buta Baraniku (braised pork belly)
Sweet Potato Croquettes
Brie Tempura
Crunchy Vegetable Roll and Caterpillar Roll
Miso Ramen
Yuzu Cheese Cake
Matcha Tiramisu
The service was impeccable. I highly recommend Kampai to everyone.
Kampai, one of the best place to visit for an authentic Japanese food affair. The place is dimly lit with an elegant ambiance making it a perfect spot fot some cozy dinner. The seating space consists of two private dinner in Japanese style where one can ejoy while comfortably seated cross-legged on the foor.
In drinks, I tried Japanese Slipper and Tokya Spritzer. Both the cocktails were fab. Wr brgna our meal with Chirashi seasfood salad which was refreshing. Brie Tempura in vegetarin appetizer was the best. Each and very sushi that I tried was amazing. Talking about thr main course, I had Miso Ramen (Non-Veg). The quantity of the dish is more than enough for two people. The flavours were so good.
Dessert is always the fav part. I tried Match Tiramisu and Yuzu Baked Cheese Cake. Both were interesting and tasty but the combination of matcha and tiramisu was really good.
Visited Kampai last week with my friend...an amazing place in the Aerocity...loved the sushi platter and the pork preparation...complimented by a relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff....must visit place for authentic Japanese food...will c u again soon team Kampai
Kampai mean' Cheers'' went over Dinner to kampai it was an absolute great experience best hospitality in Delhi.
Sushi and crystal vegetables dim sum was amazing and authentic ,uber ambiance and great place to go with family and friends.
Will definitely visit again
I visited Kampai with my friends. I loved the ambience of this place. Minimal decoration and beautiful furniture gives a vibe of a Japanese room. We also followed the Japanese ritual of taking our shoes off and then sitting like them on cushions. We started with drinks!
I had Matcha iced tea and it was really good. It had an earthy aftertaste and was refreshing! Their mimosa is also amazing!
Loved Cherry blossom as well.
In food, we started with brie tempura. It was crispy on the outside and gooey inside! Absolutely loved it.
2. caterpillar sushi - it was loaded with avocado and looked exactly like a caterpillar! I don't really like sushi but I loved this one!
3. Miso Ramen - strong aftertaste of Miso and slurpy noodles and loaded with veggies! Absolutely loved it.
4. Teriyaki Stir fried noodles - my favorite noodles of the evening. I've had so many noodles and these were divine!
5. Yuzu cheesecake - Slightly sour but so perfect that my fork just slid through it! The crust was nice and buttery!
Being a vegetarian I had a limited number of dishes but all the dishes were amazing! For a non vegetarian, this place is paradise! I loved the prompt service and the staff was so courteous. Definitely worth a visit!
It's a very pretty place with good hospitality. Large crowds can take private room sitting area in which they can sit on the floor and eat.
Couples can take table of 4 and have curtains to enjoy privacy while being in public.
Coming to food, ramen was awesome! Drinks were mind blowing!
Sushi was average, bao and Momos were nice.
Chose the chef special dishes only.
ourself comfortable on the floor chairs. Started with the Cocktail – Yuzu Senso. Sour – So I took it without egg white. Yuzu is a citrus fruit like our Lemon. and Senso is Pepper. So the drink was accomplished blend of Whiskey, Yuzu and. Senso. It was refreshing due to the presence of Yuzu and well balanced neither
Very rarely, we come across a place that impresses is in every possible aspect. Kampai happens to be one of these rare places. Serving Japanese cuisine and a few other Oriental preparations, this place has one thing or the other for all.
We started our journey with the mouth watering braised pork. Succulent cubes of pork belly, braised in a subtle sauce actually made us fall in love with the preparation instantly. But we were in store for much more. The host of dimsums, from prawn to chicken and vegetable dimsums, every single preparation was delectable. Loved it!
Next, was the assortment of sushis. I was quite by the prawn sushis. And when it comes to the other ones, let's say I had better ones.
The star of the afternoon was the miso ramen.
Soupy noodles in a bit spicy broth, with minced chicken, vegetables and egg had us floored. Loved every bite of it. Don't miss out on this one.
Add to it the low comfortable seating and an impeccable service. And we're in for a good time.
KAMPAI meaning "Cheers" in Japanese language is actually a truly calm & blissful place whose interiors have the power the rejuvenate you just as soon as you enter through its doors. The restaurant is dimly lit & is beautifully adorned with a Sakura flowers arrangement hanging from the roof and a graceful mural of a smiling Japanese lady. The place has an admirable large bar that houses top range liquors & liqueurs which can be had on its own or even mixed as famous cocktails! In case your planning to visit in a large group like we did, pleas have the private dining area or tatami areas booked in advance which houses 10 people at a go & one can comfortably enjoy their food while sitting cross-legged on the wooden seating that are placed on the floor.
We begin our meal with the Yaki Buta Baraniku (Braised pork belly with honey soya jam, miso sauce), Sweet potato Croquettes, Chirashi Seafood Salad with a round of cocktails. I must the say that pork belly dish is one of the best dishes to wake up your taste buds. It's complete winner for me amongst the other two dishes and I couldn't help but order another serving of the same while having my main course too. I had ordered a Yuzu Senso Sour which was a fruity version of the whisky sour and it quite complemented the taste of the Pork belly. Next up were a round of dimsums which consisted of the - Waterchestnut Goat cheese & Spinach option, Ginger Lamb & Black Bean, Prawn & Garlic Chive Siu Mai. The prawn one ruled the palate here while the vegetarian option is one of my personal favorites due to presence of goat cheese. Followed by a round of sushis with Crunch Veg Rolls, Caterpillar Rolls, Spicy Salmon Special roll & ebi tempuras. Being a group of 10 these were all quickly gulped by us and all of us being pure Asians actually devoured each to it's last bite. I was highly surprised by the Caterpillar option which was an avocado wrapped Sushi which was not only charming to look at but also quite spirited to taste. Was slightly disappointed with the wasabi though since it tasted more like a paste rather than its natural flavor but the soy sauce & sliced ginger made up for it. The Shikoku Daiquiri was the cocktail that made it all the more special because of the presence of the Siracha in it.
In the main course I just wanted to turn my focus on the Miso Ramen & Tori Katsu Curry Rice rather the the noodles since it's always too delectable in this type of Asian cuisine. The ramen which was miso broth with minced chicken, bamboo shoots, an half boiled soya egg & some veggies was highly piquant and quite cumbersome. The katsu Curry with it's crunch panko crusted chicken with an authentic Japanese curry & stick rice was totally irresistible and in no time I was through both of them. Service is a little slow here due to the high quality of food served so it would be great if you pre-order the food all at one go. However, the staff is too humble and their smiles would actually make you feel stress free all the time while you enjoy on the glorious food. Our food routine concluded with Yuzu Cheese Cake & Matcha Tiramisu which were a gracious way to end a lovely afternoon.
If you are a true japanese food lover, this is one of the few places you must visit! Fresh salmon amd tuna, great ambiance, beautiful presentation. Whatever we ordered was bang on with taste! Humble staff. Even the drinks ordered were great! Overall, a fantastic experience. Will surely visit this place again!!
Heared a lot about this place... It was in my to do list... Amazing ambience courteous staff,, best Japanese food I have had after long time...... Thank you guys keep rocking.......

Great job great food great hospotality... Best of luck guys...
The Torched Aburi Salmon roll is comfortably one of the best I've had in this city, and it's enough to get me back to Kampai every week. The cocktails are well thought of as well. This place is underrated in my opinion.
Kampai, a place based on the name meaning ‘cheers’, totally brought about a cheer in my dining there. It offers a modern Japanese izakaya dining experience in a contemporary set up. Loved the ambience. The low style japanese seating for bigger groups was quite a treat to look at. The servers were extremely cheerful and interactive. Wish I remembered the server's name. He was quite helpful in picking the best from the menu. Sushi - California and caterpillar were a hit. The drinks made from "yuzu" the Japanese flower...were interestingly done too. A go to place for sushi cravings and to almost visit Japan! No photos to share for sushi as we couldn't wait to get our hands on it...
Very japanese...not just the food. At least how i imagine japanese to be ! The sake was not the best but again; we dint order the best. The wasabi was strong. The sushi was better than many at popular joints in town.
The food was full of flavour... Enjoyed every bite of the veg sushi was to die for. Will recommend this place to all sushi lovers... Very good ambience
It was my first time trying Japanese cuisine and I really liked the food there and the ambience was aesthetic.The staff there was friendly and welcoming.I would surely recommend kampai to my friends for great experience.
Post intial confusion of seating, our fault, we walkedin without booking in advance, once seated things were awesome. The Kampaian who was looking after us was awesome. His recommendations for drinks, started and main course were just awesome and right quantity. Though the music got a wee bit louder later, but as within tolerance zone.
Over all a fantastic evening to remember.
If you wanna eat real authentic Japanese food, then this is it! Loved the place, excellent food and service! Don’t expect the best of the ambience as the place seems slightly dull, however the special seating is customers delight provided u get that space! The pork Bao was just too good! Go for it!
Staff staff and staff is all I have to say about this place. Its the people who make you come back to a place. And the staff of Kampai were amazing. On a Saturday night this place was fully packed, but they ensured to seat us outside and serve us till the time seats could clear up inside.
The food we ordered was average, tepanyaki chicken wasn’t that great
Chives and Chicken Dimsum were amazingly delicious.
Overall a good experience
If you are looking for authentic Japanese flavours and don’t know where to go, Kampai is the place to be. It transports you right into the lanes of Tokyo and gives a wholesome japanese dining experience. The food and cocktails are out of this world.
I had never tried sushi before this. But I’m in love with this dish after visiting this restaurant.
The ambience is perfect. The staff is so courteous. The food was delicious. Quantity was good.
We had a perfect dinner.
I would highly recommend this place to everyone.
Warning: do not eat that green saucy thing that comes with the food. It hits the brain so hard!
I am not big fan of Japanese cuisine, but when I visited Kampai I fell in love with food. Ambiance is very elegant and lucid. Service is prompt and they will help you if you are confused in what to order (just in case). For me kampai is 10/10. Thank you we will visit again
So this place is pretty fancy. The ambience is quite impressive. I tried 3 dishes here. The best of all was Seabass. It was very well cooked. Tempura sushi roll and chicken dimsums were also very delicious. Loved the presentation. In all a good experience.
The only problem being the staff. They seemed a bit off.
Wonderful place. I had an amazing lunch with my friend and the unlimited bao and sushi lunch combo is really worth it. The staff is extremely kind, helpful and smiling at all time. Overall amazing experience
What a beautiful place with amazing Asian cuisine!! Huge shout out to Aakash for being an amazing server. They serve tiramisu tea in end which was the perfect way to end our dinner 🥰

KAMPAI “its the best place that serves Japanese food in Aerocity...!!!
Great food, mocktails and desserts!
Excellent music!
Courteous staff!
Beautiful and Elegant ambience- most interesting was the private dining area.
Will surely like to recommend this place for all Japanese cuisine lovers!!!
Loved the vibe over here! ❣️
Has that authentic Japanese feel as soon as you enter! Decor’s truly fab! And most importantly, it has amazing food and drinks! 🌟💗
The buzz around restaurants in aerocity got me to this place. Kampai or cheers in Japanese is a neat little place tucked in worldmark 1. What strikes you is the large bar as soon as you enter. We decided to try one of the Japanese dining areas. We had to remove our shoes. Will be a little difficult for the older lot to get in and out otherwise very comfortable and a different experience. Ordered some mocktails which were mixed well and worth a 'Kampai'. Cherry Blo and Fuji dream and recommended. We ordered the yasai tempura, Veg sushi sampler and pork belly as starters. The yasai tempura and sushi were outstanding. The pork belly was not up to the mark a little fibrous and fat not rendered properly. Mains we ordered the veg tepanyaki fried rice which was tasty, Veg yakisoba noodles and mushroom truffle ramen both lacked flavour and marinated mushrooms with bacon which didn't breach any taste barrier. We ended with the yuzu cheese cake which was good but didn't celebrate the citrous nature of yuzu. The Portion sizes suffice two people with medium appetites. The service is warm but not that efficient so expect delays. Overall was it worth a ' Kampai ... may be may be not.
Spent a lovely afternoon at Kampai. Excellent food, wide variety, good service and excellent music. Loved every moment. It’s a great place and we will definitely return!
An authentic Japanese Restaurant.
I really enjoyed my visit here, the service was excellent, if you are new to asian food and wish to experiment, the waiters here are severely helpful and give their honest opinions.
I ordered a Caterpillar Sushi Roll, Three Mushroom and Cheese Gyoza, Brie Cheese Tempura and a Cooler.
The Sushi Roll was simply Sushi- tastic and the cutlery they serve alongwith is really impressive. The Tempura was so cheesy, as I kept it in my mouth and I could have easily munched on them. And if you are a Mushroom lover, dont forget to try their Mushroom Gyoza, its a perfect blend of Mushroom and cheese served with a spectacular dip.
And the dishes were simply amazing.
Overall, i loved my experience here and I am really looking forward to my next visit and a new experience.
We had the option of going for ala carte or the Unlimited dimsum, sushi & bao lunch menu. We chose the latter. The menu included a mocktail, unlimited dimsums & sushi from the list provided (it's a pretty extensive list of about 7-8 varieties of each) and a dessert each. We were just 2 of us but our love for Asian, sushi & the impeccable taste of the dishes could helped us devour quite a few plates of dimsums & sushi (they didn't have baos available that day)
Very nice, authentic Japanese food, courteous staff, good ambience. Will recommend and surely visit again. Keep up the good work and please do maintain your quality. 👍🏻👍🏻
This restaurant in aerocity, worldmark 1 is a perfect place for casual dining. They serve scrumptious Japanese delicacies to drool on. Chic decor and elegant ambiance make your dining experience memorable. The service and staff responses are remarkable.
Kampai lures you into lip-smacking Asian offerings and special cocktails with superb presentation. I have been to this place multiple times and I would highly recommend this place to a Japanese cuisine lover and those who are looking for an ultimate dining experience.
This place serves one of the best Japanese around Aerocity.
They have a nice theme in the ambience, good music and private seating arrangement too.
The bar is pretty elaborate with good Japanese Beers and Saki’s on the menu.
The vegetarian sushi are no less than the non veg ones. Worth every bite and penny.

Came here one night for dinner and the food was great. We noticed they had unlimited sushi and dim sum during the week and decided to come back for that. This place is a bit pricey but very delicious so I would recommend unlimited to get more bang for your buck. It mon.-sat. 12-4. However, I was a bit disappointed that the unlimited sushi was limited to 6 rolls. And most of them had cream cheese which I don’t like. So I was limited to 2 types of sushi. There’s plenty of other items on the menu and my husband and son ate a lot of those items and enjoyed them all. All food is delicious, staff is friendly, and bathrooms are clean.

Wow! I usually eat fish but I told myself I would stick to a vegetarian diet while in India so I ordered the veg dynamite roll. Honestly it was one of the best sushi rolls I’ve ever had! I was so surprised that a sushi roll without fish could taste so good! All of the veggies complimented each other well and the cream cheese put it all together. The soy sesame sauce they serve on the side is incredible and the ginger is extra spicy just like traditional Indian ginger. 5/5 stars. It was a little on the pricey side but it’s a very upscale restaurant. An 8 piece sushi roll was about 1200 rupees. (I got takeout so the attached photo is from my hotel)
Everything was great except for the scallop nigiri but maybe I’m just used to Aussie Scallops. My fave was the edamame truffle money bag, they were so goooood! The only other critique would be that the food is very pricey.
The hospitality by people waiting on us was wonderful... One of a kind experience. The food and drinks are wonderful too ! Must visit once at least if one likes japanese cuisine

If you are an enthusiast of Japanese cuisine, this is definitely a great place to fine-dine. Ambiance and decor is superb, limited restro seating area but they do a great job otherwise, private enclosed seating available upon advance reservation. For groups, there are two private rooms. A big thankyou to Mr. Ansari for making the dining experience memorable. Food quality was good, diverse menu of sushi, nigiri, soups, entrees. Ample parking available in the basement of Worldmark building @ Rs. 30/hr. Pls check out @cocodatedelhi on Instagram for their new partner in healthy baked items. One star less because the bartender screwed up the whiskey sour and screwed it up even more in order to improve it. Thanks!
Highly recommended place by a friend and it did not disappoint. Went veg this time because my sister was in town and it was still great. The beet root salad, veg sushi and dumplings were all really good. Would go back to try real sushi but this wasn't that bad either.
Check my photos for menu also.
Once you land up in Kampai, you will discover that its interiors are awash in the colours of springtime Japan. Fragile pink cherry blossoms, popularly referred to as Sakura, dot every nook and cranny of this stylised dining outlet, while partially curtained enclosures are lit up with the soft glow of pendant lamps. You will also surely brush against droves of Japanese expatriate diners who are eager to sample the nation’s food canon. You can never go wrong with the 'Spider Sushi Roll', where the textural contrast of crispy soft shell crab and tobiko sauce is dramatic. The whole roll seems to have showered in an oceanic haze of umami before being presented as neat little parcels on your plate. Equally enticing is the 'Shoyo Ramen', where the fall-apart pork chashu floats in a sea of deep soy-flavoured broth, along with nori, leeks and noodles.
For a true-blue Japanese meal experience, try and get into one of the two special dining zones or tatami rooms, where you can sit with folded legs
Do not forget to tune in to the music belted out by an in-house DJ who stands strategically next to the bar. The serene notes that come your way complement the subtly-spiced Japanese dishes
Always go for the 'Teppanyaki Fried Rice' where plump morsels of rice come flecked with options like prawn, pork, chicken or whatever else you choose
I ordered sushi, but it was similar to a California roll. Sashimi is thawed frozen fish. Katsu tasted good. Overall, the taste is close to that of a traditional Japanese restaurant. However, if you are looking for the perfect Japanese restaurant, you may be disappointed. Most of the food tastes good.
The best place for authentic Japanese cusine!!
It is a dimly lit restraunt with an elegant ambiance making it a perfect spot for cozy dinner.
The seating space consists of two private dinner in Japanese style where one can ejoy while comfortably seated cross-legged on the floor.
In drinks, we tried Spring Garden and Fuji Dream.
Both the cocktails were fab.
We began our meal with Kimchi fried rice (non-veg) and Yurinchi.
Each and very sushi that we tried was amazing.
Talking about the Ramen, we opted for Veg Shio The quantity of the dish is more than enough for two people.

Lovely Japanese place with a great ambiance. Starters are delicate and flavourful. Portions are enough for 2. They also have these private groups which are great for bigger groups. I recommend the Japanese Slippers cocktail and the pork starter. Rohit took great care of us.
Amazing Food, visited a couple of times, tried new dishes everytime and Kampai always surprise with the best taste. Altogether different vibe in this place. Kudos
Kampai is the perfect place if you want to have authentic Japanese. We really loved the sushi here. The ambiance of this place is so mesmerising and perfect for a lunch or dinner. Their service is very good and the staff is courteous as well, specially mr Prince . Our overall experience was great. We would definitely visit kampai again.
