Kichi Asian Cuisine & Sushi — Restaurant in Knoxville

I absolutely love boba tea and whenever I see a place that sells it I make sure to try it. That being said I’ve tried hundreds of locations and brands and even made some of my own, but I have never, ever, ever had a worst tea than the one I just ordered here. I ordered a chai boba tea just expecting for it to be an average tea. It was not. It’s a toxic orange color and tastes absolutely awful, the boba is sickening and the tea has absolutely no taste of chai. I took it up to the counter to make sure that I’d gotten the right order and they assured me that it was the chai. There is no way that anyone in this place knows what a chai tea tastes like. I can’t finish my drink and it was the biggest waste of 5 dollars I’ve ever spent. TL//DR this place has disgusting products and is a terrible place to stop...

More authentic and less greasy in comparison to the other asian eatery in the mall, and the octopus balls were extremely hot, a little undercooked, but that's pretty normally for that dish. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone living or...

I had ordered the rainbow roll. I took a bite out of it and could taste that the shrimp was spoiled, I inspected the rest of the food and discovered the shrimp was growing mold. It was decaying bad and tasted like it. See the attached images. They offered to remake it and that the mold on the shrimp was just contamination from the cutting board. I don’t believe they should have mold on their cutting board. I asked for a refund for the sushi, which I’m thankful they gave me, but I tipped $2 and didn’t receive the $2 back. Their hot food is okay but I won’t be getting their...
