Comment: I came here last night to pick up my take-out order. I ordered a salmon roll, a spider roll, and then a rainbow roll. I enjoyed all my rolls last night, and they were delicious. It was much needed for my late dinner. The restaurant was spacious inside, and the staff were friendly and inviting. Ill come here again soon for a dine-in experience. :)

Comment: Is it super fancy? No, but it has they cozy little neighborhood vibe that makes you feel like this must be where couples go for a late sushi dinner after making love! And most everyone is local. Their snow roll and Kampai special is drool worthy, and their fried rice is the best I’ve ever had….ever.

Comment: The Kampai combo is the way to go. I love the shumai.Update: 9/21/23 - service today was pretty inattentive and food was slooooooww There arent that many tables and the server didnt seem to know that I had been waiting for my sushi 🍣 for like 40 minutes even though she took my order. Not a great experience. Food is still great, though.

Comment: Stopped in while staying in the area because of the positive reviews. Im glad we did. The sushi was fresh. We also ordered the gyoza appetizer, which was very good. We were given complimentary miso soup and ginger salad. Both were delicious. The service was prompt and polite. The atmosphere was cozy. Definitely a good place, albeit slightly pricey. I dont mind paying a little more for quality food, so it was definitely worth the price.

Well worth the little splurge for the amount of quality in the food and the general atmosphere. We love this place. ❤️ Highly recommend the soft shell crab, spider roll and takoyaki

Comment: Beautifully prepared and extremely flavorful. I had the Kampai combo which was 6 Sashimi and 4 nigiri and a roll, all cuts were chef’s choice. The chef chose perfectly for me. Every bite was perfect. I know I had some yellowfin, Salmon, Oturo, and shrimp. Not sure what else was on the plate, but would be happy to try it all again. Staff was friendly and explained every question I had. Highly recommend

Comment: One of the most comforting, positive dining experiences I’ve had in STL. I sat by the bar and was served graciously by Benji (I hope that’s how he spells his name). All night we bantered, being the perfect complement with the food. The restaurant isn’t overly flashy, it has the right amount of decorations to make it feel comfortable, without seeming like it was trying to be overly ethnic.The service was spectacular, quick, and fresh. The food was as advertised. We started with Miso Soup to warm our tummies in the cold weather, followed by tempura. Crispy and tasty. My favorite part of the meal was the Hamachi Kama, a grilled yellowtail jaw. Finally we had a Chirashi and Kampai Special Roll.If I could give this place more than 5 stars, I would.

Comment: This has become a favorite spot since moving to the CWE area! It’s off the main strip (Euclid), so easy to miss if you’re not looking for it.They have a large selection of rolls, both traditional & specialty, and each that I’ve tried has been delicious! Rolls are served with a complementary house salad, which is also tasty. The service has always been great, and the staff is friendly & attentive.

Comment: Ordered takeout through Uber Eats. For the most part I was impressed. Ive eaten there in person, but its been a couple years. That was also an overall good experience.I ordered the five-piece sashimi (chefs choice), an order of shumai, the shrimp and veggie tempura, the Fancy Roll, and the Low-Carb Roll. Uber Eats practices contactless delivery and of course I want to support that. But when I opened the bag, the shumai were nowhere to be found. There was a small green salad and a (very) small portion of miso soup included with the rest of what Id ordered. Im not sure if there was a mix-up or if the salad and soup come with the sushi.The sashimi was just delicious. Very fresh and flavorful. The tempura was also very good--I like it dipped in a bit of soy sauce instead of the tempura sauce. The soup was cold, which is fair considering the distance, and the portion was just a couple swallows, but it was all right. The salad is still in my fridge. Both rolls were quite yummy. I actually liked the Low-Carb Roll best--it has a great fruity tang and is wrapped in crunchy cucumber. It is hard to pick up with chopsticks, but no one judged me at home. 😅All in all, a great meal. I made Uber Eats aware of the missing item and have been told theyll refund me. I didnt think to take pictures of the food! Very unlike me. Must have been hungry.Ill absolutely return to Kampai but Im likely to go to the CWE location in person instead of ordering in.

Comment: This place was nice. Service was a little slow but they were very busy. Food was kind of expensive given other places have all u can eat for $20. The parking available is street parking that goes pretty fast so you might have to park a little ways from it. I used a Groupon and had no problem redeeming it. I noticed they also provide happy hour specials M-F from I think 5-6. I found heating to be an issue too, you could see your breath in the bathroom. Overall it was nice.

The low water pressure also caused toilet paper to not be fully flushed. Good variety of authentic Japanese beers. The Alaskan sushi roll was on point. Some of the other fancier sushi rolls were overdressed and fell apart. Service was good. Parking is daunting at best, frustrating at worst.

Comment: Probably the best sushi Ive ever had and I have travelled a lot. I always feel like sushi and tapas are the best for a main meal because you need to buy a lot to feel satisfied, but the sushi at Kampai was perfect, substantial portions and tasted great, just loved it. Ordered Volcano roll, Snow Roll and 1 other I forget. It came with salad and soup. Absolutely perfect amount for 2 people. Also had hot saki which was great, warming on a rainy evening. It was really delicious. Highly recommend.

Comment: Had a Groupon for two for $30. We still spent $40 out of pocket. Very EXPENSIVE. I have a nice sushi place near me and it’s all you can eat for $40 for two people. With that being said, the staff is nice. It comes with complementary miso soup and salad. The sushi was a 7 out of 10 for me. (I’ve really been spoiled by my neighborhood sushi place). Not bad. I wouldn’t go back even if I had a Groupon. Too expensive for my tastes and only street parking. They are under an apartment building and in central west end so parking is limited.

Comment: This is a hidden gem in CWE. I love the atmosphere; its never been overly loud even when busy, the low lighting & sweet staff.The West Pine Roll & The White Tiger Roll are delightful. If you dont have the time to dine in, call & order it for carryout.FYI: If you plan ahead, scoop up the Groupon deal

Comment: Went for lunch. The service was fast, and they went out of their way to offer tea refills. I especially liked the little ginger-dressing salad you get as an appetizer and the yellowtail sashimi I had. The spicy scallop was decent, just a little low on the amount of meat. Overall, excellent.

Comment: This is my absolute favorite sushi place in the Midwest. Reasonably priced, delicious vegetarian rolls, fresh seafood, great service, and the comfort of a satisfying complimentary soup and salad are all guaranteed here. As a patron of over ten years, I can assure anyone looking for a simple, quiet, appetizing meal that this place is tops. An ideal spot for a small family outing or a cozy date. I recommend the pickled plum, or “kanpyo” nigiri roll (not on the menu, but if you write it down they’ll know what you mean).

Comment: As a New Yorker, I wasn’t expecting to find great sushi in St Louis, but this was really great! I can’t imagine there is another sushi place in this city, and even by New York standards, I thought the sushi was very good. One of the pieces of fish I had wasn’t fresh, but when I told them, they brought out another plate of tuna for free 👍🏽

Comment: I recently moved back to St. Louis and am on the hunt for a new sushi restaurant to haunt. This is the first sushi place weve tried that I was delightfully pleased with. We tried several things. We got the Takoyaki which I really enjoyed. My husband thought it was a little mushy, but thats kind of just how the dish is. We got the Joy roll which was pretty good, but the torching process left a sort of burnt taste. We also got the Vegas roll which was good. I definitely want to try their other rolls. We also got some nigiri: masago, seared tuna, and uni. All were great, but make sure you try uni in your lifetime. SO GOOD! Well definitely come back, but are still on the hunt for a place with more interesting rolls. The service here was outstanding. Only downside is theres no parking lot, only street parking.

Comment: I am by no means a Sushi expert, but I have tried a good amount of places around St. Louis and even spent some time in Japan where I had plenty of great sushi. Kampai does not disappoint. This is probably the best sushi place my wife and I have been to in St. Louis. The staff were great at answering questions, giving suggestions, and very friendly/accommodating. We had the Sunset, Love, and Dragon roll and they were all wonderful. Id recommend all of them.

Comment: Though the competition is weak compared to west coast cities, this is one of the better sushi places in St. Louis. Somewhat reasonable lunch specials. Closes briefly between lunch and dinner. Parking can be tough around dinner time. Service is usually quite good. Menu is pretty comprehensive but they are missing sunomono.

The best sushi Ive had in a long time and the waitress was sweet, even as busy as she was. We went on a Thursday night with reservations. Great experience.

Comment: I cant actually comment on the atmosphere and decor, because I ordered delivery from them a couple times rather than dining in. I called them up on my way home and asked if they deliver sushi or only the standard entrees. Of course, much to my delight, they deliver everything on the menu! It was about $60 for two people to order 5 rolls, but it was well worth it. The sushi was fantastic and the service was excellent. Ive been to most of the sushi places in St. Louis, and Kampai definitely ranks up there with the best like Fin and Oishi. Much better than Drunken Fish thats right down the street. If you like eating in a loud hipster restaurant with all undergrads drinking fruity drinks then by all means hit up the Drunken Fish. If you want good Sushi in the CWE, try Kampai!

Comment: There are a ton of sushi restaurants in the CWE, but Kampai is by far my favorite. It doesnt have the fanciest fusion rolls (Sub-Zero), nor does it serve crazy martinis that sound Japanese (Drunken Fish.)What it does have is simple: authentic sushi with quality fish at very reasonable prices.Where else can you get a large bowl of Chirashi with good quality, large cuts of sashimi including miso and salad for $10 (lunch special) ? Heck, this alone brought me back at least twice a week. With their rolls, they stick mostly to the classics, and they do them well. Good selection of Japanese beer and sake, but this is first and foremost a sushi stop.I have since moved from St. Louis and miss this place terribly. I have eaten in more sushi places than I can count, but Kampai always holds a place dear to my heart.
