I've been to very, VERY few authentic Japanese restaurants. Even less with actual Japanese chefs. But this restaurant has amazing sushi. For what you're paying, you get very high quality fish. Just a warning if you're not used to it, the food will take a little time as they only have so many sushi chefs so please be patient

Kazu has been my main sushi guy for 22 years now, ever since he was way out in Citrus Mall! Everything he makes is phenomenal and I’m never let down. Some appetizers you should try is the baby octopus salad, the monkey brain or fried soft shell crab *chef kiss*

Tried Kimchi Conch and Nasu Agedashi before having the (always-a-favorite) Kanisu. Delicious! Phenomenal service even on a busy Friday evening. And Kazu was serving up sushi and smiles, of course!

Kazu’s Sushi is my go-to spot in New Port Richey! The sushi is always fresh, expertly prepared, and hands down the best in town. The staff is friendly, and the atmosphere is welcoming. If you’re a sushi lover, this place is a must-visit!

Very pleased, welcoming and friendly. It was nice to be met at the door with honest expectations, the Sushi was coming out slowly tonight as they were short handed and training new people. We didn't mind the wait and really appreciated the honesty prior to being seated. Keep up the Great food and service ... We will be back. My husband is a Firecracker Fanatic !!

WOW, its been over 7 years since my daughter and I ate at Kazu's(back in his old location). We were so happy to stop in today, brought back good memories. The food is sooooo good here, prices are definitely low(fair). I was surprised how good it was, how much we got and how low the bill was. This place is a must go to if you live Sushi, Sashimi, or anything in that area for food. 5 STAR for sure. Will definitely be back. Thank you Kazu...

This is my wife and I favorite sushi spot. The atmosphere is great. They just moved to a new location so the place is way bigger but still has the cozy atmosphere! The sushi is great for the price point. It's tasty it is unique you most definitely get the most for money! So if you like a good roll or even some miso soup then you need to drop by and check it out!!

Great little sushi place with a wonderfully friendly staff to get lunch or dinner at if you're visiting Downtown NPR! Every time I visit here the experience is always delightful, when you walk in you’re greeted by staff members with sincere warmth. The servers, chefs, and all of the staff are very knowledgeable, professional, and have such a positive energy that it’s infectious. If you’re new to Asian cuisine, no question is the wrong question and they are happy to help with anything you need, because I’ve brought friends here, and even when I came my first time in June 2023, it was a bit overwhelming because of how huge the menu is! It’s definitely worth it though, and the staff is super attentive without being too intrusive, it’s the perfect balance! It’s rare that the food, service, and decor all combine to such an excellence the way Kazu’s does. Everything we ate was flavorful and delicious. It was very very delightful! It’s always very good. I personally love sitting and eating at the sushi bar because it gives you that more authentic experience watching the chefs make the meals for you, and then they hand them to you right there. The rolls are great, they have specials everyday if we want to go a more affordable route on rolls, but if you’re looking for a more specific type of roll, I highly recommend the ‘Rainbow Roll’ and the ‘Kazu’s House Roll’. The ‘Tempura Japanese Bagel Roll’ is very delicious as well, if you’re not looking for rolls, the ‘Whitefish Teriyaki’ is to die for, actually it’s to LIVE for, comes with white rice, miso soup, and it also had fried vegetables, I think it was stir fry, either way it was scrumptious! Might I emphasize how good the miso soup is, as well as the edamame, oh and the sake! The Sour Apple Sake is a must every time for me, I need to try the plum they have, they also have strawberry but you have to order it by the bottle. They have so much variety when it comes to beverages, whether they are alcoholic or not! This place has it all, definitely a lunch/dinner highlight, highly highly recommend. Keep up the good work team Kazu!
