Wow! Where do I start?! Kaizen has been a staple for my family since they opened. The food, service, and atmosphere land up there with the best restaurants in Knoxville. During our most recent dining experience, we started out with a few steamed buns (a must have as a light appetizer!). We had the Bang Bang Shrimp, Tai Sausage, and Seared cured shiitake mushrooms. While they were all amazing (as always), we tend to gravitate to the Tai Sausage quite frequently, but you really can't go wrong. We followed the steamed buns with the Fried Shrimp w/ Bang Bang Fried Rice, Szechuan Fried Pork, and the Duck Noodle Soup. It's really hard to rate the menu items as we try something new every time we go and have always been extremely satisfied. The service is second to none and the staff is always extremely friendly. They have a great selection of Sake and other beverages and the staff is always willing to point you in the right direction. I would highly recommend Kaizen to anyone. Whether you have a tendency to be picky, have allergies such as gluten, or anything else that might be holding you back, Kaizen has an option for you. Check it out, you won't regret it!
