Kinjo Sushi & Grill in Bad Dürkheim

Just entered the restaurant at 1 p.m. and was greeted by a service staff that was not very motivated. Then ignored for 20 minutes without being able to place an order. Then left the restaurant. Never again.

Every piece of sushi had hard shrimp shells in it! We will never eat there again, that shouldn't happen, especially not at that price!

Nice restaurant centrally located in DÜW. The food was good and the portion size was completely sufficient. Service very attentive, prompt and friendly. All in all a good, recommended restaurant.

Very good steak, good side dishes, good service 🌟

Very tasty food and beautiful surroundings! Unfortunately, we waited an hour for our order and then, after asking, we found out that we had been "forgotten". After another 30 minutes the food finally arrived. As a consolation there was at least a 10% discount on the bill.

The food was very good. I enjoyed it very much. The service was very friendly. Only spoke very quietly :) But it could also be due to the culture. Everything together was good and I will definitely go again.

The sushi was very good. Unfortunately, the service took a long time. The ambience is nice and the price-performance ratio is ok. Big plus: There is gluten-free soy sauce.

Service took 40 minutes to even order. It was also close to 30 degrees in the whole building in the winter. Absolutely unreasonable. Try somewhere else.

We can only recommend it!! The food and the homemade lemonade are really delicious. The restaurant looks super cozy inside. Very nicely designed.

A very good restaurant with very good food. The atmosphere is cozy. We were there on the weekend evening, it was very busy, a reservation is recommended. It was very loud at times because it was so full. The staff was very friendly. But unfortunately, perhaps simply because the place was so full, people weren't particularly attentive. We had to draw attention to ourselves several times to get drinks again. The food was very good. Rarely eaten so well. Definitely recommended.

We really enjoy eating there. The food is really really good, but that's still no use if, DESPITE reservations and directions, you can't get a table and are sent away. All reservations are simply accepted. The first ones to stand at the front or “scream louder here” also get the next free table. Nothing wrong with the table being reserved in a name. Plus, when it's full it's just too much - too many tables and people pressed together.

Have eaten here many times. The food is really very good, but we recently had very bad experiences with the service. In particular, reserving tables doesn't work at all. Apparently they just accept all reservations out of sheer greed, so on Saturday there was a line of people with reservations waiting for a table to become available. After waiting half an hour and not getting a table despite having a reservation, we left again. Unfortunately, this is how you ruin your good reputation as a restaurant. Too bad.

Very good Asian restaurant...great service

Unfortunately there is no space without a reservation.

The food tastes very good and the price-performance ratio is okay. The service was very friendly, even though we arrived just before the kitchen closed, we felt welcome.

We have been there many times. Unfortunately, the food has deteriorated significantly over time. In the sushi mix there are more and more vegetarian rolls and unfortunately always little fish for the same price. We made reservations early this evening. Since the restaurant accepted too many bookings, the guests who had made reservations later stood waiting between the tables, which created an uncomfortable atmosphere like in a crowded ICE train. Other guests who came after us had to wait over 40 minutes for their food because the kitchen couldn't keep up. At this point I feel sorry for the completely overwhelmed staff, who at that point just ran back and forth quickly. After 1 hour and 30 minutes we were still sitting with full glasses and were asked every 2 minutes if we wanted to order something else. Which was almost like being thrown out, despite the reservation. Because it was so uncomfortable, we paid straight away. A minute after paying we were asked to leave the restaurant (despite a reservation!!). Absolutely no go! That's actually a shame because there used to be good food and a pleasant atmosphere here. It's a shame that Kinjo has slacked off so much...

The food tastes very good here. The lemonades are also very tasty. Very nice restaurant with an attractive outdoor area. The restaurant is also very nicely decorated inside.

Very mediocre service. After inquiries after 60, 80, 90 minutes, 2 out of 5 meals come. This is the 5th but also last visit. Really loud, it's like a train station, the tables are way too close together. Plus prices like in Dubai. Thanks no.

Very good food in a stylish atmosphere and very nice staff. We will certainly come back

Despite repeated requests, we waited 1 1/2 hours (!) for food. Unfortunately, the service was very unfriendly and responded to questions in an annoyed manner. We understand when there is a lot going on or something is forgotten, but there was no communication about why the food came so late, let alone an apology. Shortly before we wanted to leave, the food arrived. Food was okay, but definitely not worth the long wait and the price. Too bad!

Food and ambience very good, unfortunately the price is not appropriate for the portion size… Service not that attentive…

Wir haben eine Familienplatte bestellt. Sie war sehr gut. Es war leider nicht von allem für 4 Personen Fisch dabei. Thunfisch und ein anderer Fisch den ich nicht kenne und auch die Jakobsmuschel war nur für 3 Personen da. Als ich das erste mal vor ungefähr 2Jahren da war wurde das Schiff mit etwas Nebel angerichtet. Das gab's heute leider auch nicht. Vielleicht wirds beim nächsten Besuch wieder anders

Sehr schönes Ambiente, super freundliche und aufmerksame Service-Kräfte. Essen war recht gut - dieses Restaurant wird aber unser anderes Lieblings-Sushi-Restaurant auf keinem Fall ablösen (war zu dem Zeitpunkt geschlossen)!

Best Asian Restaurant in this area. Was here for the holidays and had to eat for my last dinner before flying home. Had the duck breast in Mango coconut sauce and it was to du for. Also the spring rolls just perfect. Highly recommend this restaurant. Also the service was excellent 😊

Very tasty, especially the sushi! The price is a bit higher in comparison, but the quality and freshness of the food is impressive! I'd love to come back!

I visited the restaurant during the holidays when it was very busy. The reception was friendly and the entrance area of ​​the restaurant looks inviting and pleasant. Further back in the restaurant, however, the atmosphere was rather subdued. A positive point is the ability to reserve large tables for up to 14 people or more. To eat: As a starter I ordered grilled octopus but received grilled squid instead. However, the presentation was attractive and the taste was good. The presentation of the main course, Grilled Crown Prawns, was also very appealing. Unfortunately, the shrimp were old, stuck to their shells, and one had a strange smell and taste, as if it had been washed with chlorinated water. Luckily there was no food poisoning but I will not visit this restaurant again.

I had dinner here with a friend today. As soon as we walked in we were amazed by the atmosphere. We were warmly welcomed and shown to a table. The atmosphere in the restaurant is great, quiet music in the background and perfect lighting. Not too dark and not too light. The drinks came very quickly, as a starter we had the hot gyoza, which was super tasty. The main course took a while, but there were a lot of guests there. The sushi also blew us away like the hot gyoza. My girlfriend had the mochi for dessert, which was also very nicely prepared and delicious. The food is of very high quality and definitely worth the price. All in all it was a successful evening. The staff is super friendly, accommodating and attentive. A big compliment to the entire team and a big thank you for such a great evening. We would always like to come here again.

Have eaten there several times now and all in all always satisfied. I would describe prices as high. In my opinion, it's now a bit too expensive for the performance it offers.

We had reserved a table. When we showed up on time, it turned out that there were no tables available. Behind us came another couple who had also made a reservation and also had to leave hungry. It's hopelessly overbooked here. Very annoying.

Very chic and tasty restaurant. The staff and owner are very nice and the service is quick and easy. Food very, very tasty and fresh! 2 people drinks; Pre-main dessert = €95

If you want to experience something special, Kinjo - Sushi 🍣 & Grill is the right place for you. Everyone gets their money's worth here. Whether various starters, vegetarian dishes, as well as grilled meat and fish dishes, delicious sushi and great desserts. There is a special highlight for everyone here. The service is very friendly and attentive and the ambience is simply unique. However, you'd better reserve a table. My conclusion: We will definitely come back.

On the recommendation, I took my loved ones with me and was impressed from the first moment. A great interior design from the lighting to the smallest details. A comfortably warm atmosphere. The highlight was the decoration at the sushi counter 🤩 A satisfactory price-performance ratio because the food was excellent! A short trip to Asia, paired with unforgettable taste. A dream 🥰 Thanks for the friendliness and also to the service. We felt very comfortable, had an excellent meal and will definitely come back 😍👍

Best sushi in the region! Excellent taste, aesthetically presented, friendly service! And not only the sushi is fantastic, the other dishes we tried were also all very good. The quality of the food is convincing, we have been there several times and always enjoy coming back to eat. The location is also perfect. Centrally near the saltworks or behind the large barrel at Wurstmarktplatz. There are plenty of parking spaces available. The toilets are also clean and tidy.

The food tasted very good, the portions were sufficient. The ambience only gets 3 stars because it is an open room but unfortunately not noise-reduced, so it was very loud and you almost had to scream. Otherwise it was very nice and modernly furnished. The prices are a little higher, but the food is worth it.

Absolutely fantastic restaurant, absolutely must visit weather, world class food

We ordered a variety of dishes from lamb fillet to sushi and chicken skewers. The family was thrilled. Many many thanks

pleasant atmosphere, delicious food, very friendly service :)

“I was here with my loved ones. The atmosphere was grand and luxurious. The decoration at the sushi counter was impressive and a real eye-catcher. The warm light along with the candles created a cozy atmosphere. Furthermore, the taste of the food was excellent, a true art from Asia. I will definitely come back many more times 😍🥰🥰.”

Very tasty sushi restaurant. The service is very friendly, the food came quickly and tastes good

Great ambience, nice waitresses (a bit like the Shire with lots of little hobbits), great service and mega delicious food. Great, we'd love to come back.

Very friendly service, price-performance ratio very good 👍

Way too hot in summer because there is no air conditioning. But the food is super tasty.

Delicious food, nice staff, nice location.

Very good sushi and grill restaurant. Very good quality of the food, from the starter to the main course to the dessert. Very friendly and courteous service. And all in a cozy, authentic atmosphere. Also very comfortable to sit outside. There are free parking spaces right in front of the door Definitely worth repeating.

Only the best for a special occasion!!!

It was an absolute blast. The food was really tasty and so was the ambience. The pictures on the internet don't do the place justice at all.

Unfortunately, we were very disappointed with our visit to Kinjo. Right from the start we had to wait a long time before we could even order. The starter was still ok, but the main course was really disappointing. I had sushi that was completely unseasoned and the fish had no flavor whatsoever. The California roll was carelessly rolled and didn't look particularly appealing. My friend had the lamb, which was completely cooked through, and the side dishes were also completely unseasoned. The waitress only responded to our complaint with a “sorry” and a free dessert, but unfortunately that couldn’t make up for the disappointment. Overall, I wouldn't recommend the restaurant. Too bad!

very nice staff, take time to explain

This was our second time eating here. The food is very good and very freshly prepared, the atmosphere is nice. Definitely something different. The service is friendly. However, I found the terrible condition of the menu off-putting. If I had received such a menu on my first visit, I would have left without ordering anything.

Very good food and pleasant atmosphere

The Sushi Restaurant Kinjo is a real insider tip for everyone who appreciates high-quality Japanese cuisine. In addition to an impressive selection of fresh sushi creations, the restaurant also offers excellent steaks that will delight any meat lover. The price-performance ratio is unbeatable here - you get first-class quality at fair prices. Particularly noteworthy is the friendly and attentive staff, who make the visit a completely successful experience. Kinjo is definitely worth a visit, whether you're craving sushi or a juicy steak!

Fantastisch gegeten. Gyoza’s vooraf en zalm en grote garnalen als onze hoofdgerechten. Erg smakelijk. Mooi opgediend. Supervriendelijke bediening. Een betaalbare aanrader

Short and sweet, all in all very, very good, will come again and recommend. Can reserve 1 hour in advance No long waiting times Great food Greatly prepared The price is therefore a little higher but more than justified

Absolutely not recommended, has nothing to do with authentic cuisine. There was wasabi paste smeared under the nigiris, which absolutely doesn't belong there. The gyoza came with a sweet and sour sauce, which has nothing to do with Japanese cuisine. The cocktail was only 2/3 full. The service didn't even try to satisfy the guest, the restaurant was half empty and we had to wait 20 minutes for the drinks alone. We won't be coming back.

Dishes are Japanese style but not the way you would want as a connoisseur. Sweet and sour sauce for gyoza, wasabi as standard in sushi... no-go! Especially if you can't stand it. Drinks glasses only 2/3 full despite ice cubes - a shame. And the inferior service, including extreme waiting times with over 4 waitresses in a barely full restaurant, is unfortunately not convincing either. Ambience is ok.

The food is very tasty but the recent price increase is a bit too high unfortunately

We've been there twice and we'll definitely come back! Great place, great food, very nice service. Effectively served ;)

Food is good, service too. Normal prices for sushi. Would come again

Mega restaurant, top quality food. Really highly recommended.

We had the sushi boat for 4 people. Delicious!!!

Great ambience - colors, furniture and lighting perfectly coordinated, professional and high quality down to the last detail, and very pleasant, chairs modern and yet very comfortable (!). Friendly staff, even special requests were fulfilled. Very diverse menu, food super fresh, super tasty and also extremely visually appealing - a visit here is a pleasure for all the senses! Update on July 8th, 2024: We were here again today - every dish we ordered was still an aromatic delight! The quality of food, ambience and service remains at an unchanged high level. Try it out for yourself and recommend it - a location like this has to stay!

Great sushi restaurant in the middle of Bad Dürkheim. The location is great with great facilities. Great atmosphere to have a nice meal here. The food is of top quality and well prepared. You should take some time with you as there are sometimes problems with the service. But that is made up for by friendliness. We had ordered a bottle of wine with our meal, but we received the wrong one. Once I let them know it was exchanged straight away. Overall, I highly recommend everything.

Delicious sushi, friendly service… a bit noisy on the main street but otherwise nice

We haven't eaten as well as we did there in a long time. And enjoy such great and friendly service. 😊

Four of us had an appointment at Kinjo with friends. The restaurant was very busy that evening, unfortunately the windows were closed the whole time and there is probably no ventilation. It was therefore extremely warm throughout the evening and the air was stale. The window at the next table had a crack in one of the glass elements, so it was raining in and there was water on the window sill. The service staff was really very friendly, but unfortunately not very attentive. Orders took a long time and were sometimes forgotten. After the meal, no one proactively came to our table and asked what we wanted. There is definitely still a lot of room for improvement here. The food was really excellent. I've never had such delicious grilled chicken skewers, fantastic! And the main course, the Kinjo Mango with corn-fed chicken, was also great. The price-performance ratio is right. The ambience in Kinjo is a bit too dark for me personally. Nevertheless, I would like to come back and maybe the weather will be better so I can do that too Terrace can test.

Very large selection. Prices are okay for Japanese

Super good sushi, the homemade lemonade was also very tasty. Very friendly service and nice ambience. Gladly again.

Very nice restaurant and delicious food. Easy to reach not far from the sausage market.

The food was very tasteful, the service was very good and the price-performance ratio was right.

It was a very beautiful evening! Very good food, friendly service!

Went there for the first time yesterday on a recommendation. Beautiful ambience and high quality food. The variety of drinks was great. We will be back! 😊

Not bad, the woodpecker is honestly unbelievable and the one in Bad Därkemm is nice 😃

I recommend this establishment, the welcome is very friendly and the food is very, very good. If I have the chance I will go back....

What food is excellent. Very nice service is worth it

Very unfriendly service unfortunately, I came there spontaneously with my wife, when I asked if there was still a place available outside, the answer was “It's full, see for yourself”. I then sat down inside, perplexed, only to realize that the air conditioning wasn't working. I would have liked to have given the food a chance, but not really...

Too expensive and when you order it's always really late! But food is delicious.

Very tasty although somewhat expensive.

Super tasty food, friendly service, you'll be happy to come back here to eat. I just can't recommend the place by the door as it's a bit cold.

My food was great. Salad is not the premier class but it was great

I was very positively surprised, some of the best sushi I have ever eaten. Highly Recommended. Ambience and service were also good.

Sehr angenehme Atmosphäre, freundliche Bedienung, Essen lecker und von guter Qualität. Es gibt eine Mittagskarte mit moderaten Preisen.

Very very tasty food. I can only recommend

Absolute recommendation! The dishes were always prepared with fresh ingredients, the service staff were always friendly and the food tasted delicious. The price is certainly a bit higher for the region, but worth every cent!

First the negative: We were there with a lot of people and ordered several steaks medium. 90% of the steaks ordered were completely cooked. Bad for such a price. Apparently you're a bit overwhelmed in the kitchen with so many steak orders. Mine was also completely mixed. Could hardly eat it. Making up for it with a free coffee isn't really the right solution either, considering you pay 30/32 euros for it. Personally, I would have liked the service to be friendlier with more smiles. I don't know that about Asians at all. The positive.. The sushi tastes really wonderful and is beautifully prepared. Ambiance also nice. Do I have to go again? Not necessarily just because of the sushi, unless I was nearby.

Wir waren mittags hier. Das Mittagsmenü war extrem lecker. Auch die Kinder mochten das Essen. Das Essen kam sehr schnell, die Bedienung war sehr freundlich. Auch Sonderwünsche der Kinder wurden super entgegenkommend erfüllt. Zuletzt war das Ambiente super schön. Wir kommen ganz sicher wieder.

Unfortunately, I breathe in the exhaust air from the kitchen all day long. Please find a solution. You can be smelled in an unacceptable radius.

Food very tasty. Extremely attentive service. Price/performance is right.

Top Asian cuisine. Sushi 🍣 is excellent

Our favorite restaurant since it was in Bad Dürkheim - food - service - ambience: 5 stars is the minimum!

Simply WOW!!! The stylish ambience shines with many Asian details. The staff is extremely coordinated, organized and friendly and ensures a warm feeling. The food impressed with its taste, quality and loving preparation. A clear recommendation from me... Culinary trip to Asia at the highest level!

The food was generally okay. However, the price/performance ratio doesn't fit, the sushi is nothing special and the steak came too raw (it was ordered medium, it came English/blue) and drowned in sauce...

Very tasty food, huge selection. Nice service. Also open over Easter 🤗.

Service was really fast even on an almost full house. Food was plentiful, even as a chubby guy, I couldn't even finish one order due to the size. Other than that everyone was nice with us, and didn't even made fun of me eating with knife and fork. Best first restaurant experience ever. 11/10; 5 stars everywhere, if you want to EAT, then this is your restaurant.

It was very tasty, the service was friendly and nice, and the atmosphere was pleasant. Clear recommendation.

I have been a guest at Kinjo Sushi & Grill three times so far. In my opinion, the quality is excellent and has not deteriorated since it opened. The menu offers a large selection of Asian dishes, but I always find it difficult to decide. You are always greeted in a friendly manner and the employees are very good at their jobs. The waiting time is reasonable for the quality and the order is always prepared very accurately and cleanly. I felt very comfortable during my three visits and am looking forward to my next trip to Bad Dürkheim so that I can of course enjoy my time here again. I strongly recommend booking a table in advance as Kinjo is very busy even on weekdays.

Always a great experience eating here. Super delicious food combined with great service and friendly staff. Always my pleasure...

As always, it was super tasty I would love to come back There is something for everybody

Unreservedly recommended. There's really nothing more to say. Great service, great food, great drinks, great ambience, fair prices. Our first, but certainly not last, visit to Kinjo.

Great restaurant right next to the well-known Dürkheimer Fass. Food was great at fair prices. I can happily recommend it
