Lemon Iced Tea: Refreshing but might be a little on the sweet side.
Iced Green Tea: Flavorful green tea ending with a characteristic bitter aroma
Miso soup: Delicious miso soup comes free with certain dishes (check the menu)
Ribeye Steak with egg yolk rice bowl: Very umami tasting dish, ribeye cooked medium rare, sliced on top of rice bowl. Comes with free miso soup. Highly recommended.
Salmon Akami Hamachi Don: Fish were very tender and aromatic, loved it. Comes with free miso soup. Recommended.
Salmon Crunchy Cheese Roll: Disappointing. Flavors are indistinguishable and rolls are stuffed with everything. Cheese melts and sticks the rolls together which makes it hard to eat. Did not suit my taste.
Wagyu Nigiri: Ordered a pair and enjoyed it very much, slices were medium cooked. Ordered 4 more this time they were well done cooked (we did not specify before ordering) and although tasty the medium rare ones were much better. Highly recommended.

That being said the prices at Kaneki are comparable to prices at other Japanese restaurants in the area.
The quality of the food here is very good. The dishes well prepared, the seafood fresh by...
Read moreif you desire a 5 star experience, go at the correct time. If you go on friday afternoon, when the fish is delivered fresh, this may be the best sushi restaurant in Bangkok. Go any other time or week day, and you may be very disappointed. When you choose to order sushi anywhere, it is imperative to always ask the sushi chef what fish was delivered TODAY, and make that your fish for any sushi you order. Staff members are kind, patient and well intended, yet remarkably unknowledgable . It is the fault of the owner for not educating the staff and for not installing one single team member who speaks english and has tasted the...
