Kinza - Dothan

I don’t usually leave reviews but this place was by far the worst I’ve ever experienced at a Japanese restaurant. I ordered shrimp and fried snapper hibachi. They brought out these small salad shrimp which was overcooked with no seasoning. The fried snapper wasn’t fresh either. It had no seasoning. My wife ordered a medium well steak. The steak came out extra well done. The server clearly lacks training and knowledge about the menu or food when answering questions. The manager or whoever she was clearly didn’t care that our food lacked taste, substance and preparation. Instead she walked away. Needless to say, I did not leave a tip. I am still trying to figure out why are there so many good reviews on this place. I’m convinced that people in lower Alabama don’t know how food should taste. Please….if anyone is reading this and you have high standards for food DO NOT COME HERE. If you have any standards, DO NOT COME HERE.

Baby wanted dinner and I said let's do dinner somewhere we have eaten. I made a mistake ? choosing this establishment. The atmosphere at kinza is well designed. The service was not up standard our was a foreign national who spoke very little English. I requested a glass of water and a glass of the house Merlot wine. The wine was a complete and utter miss. I ordered the kinza house signature fried rice which would have been a simple house fried rice at any other restaurant serving Asian cuisine. The shrimp in my dish was diced up not one whole shrimp as well as overcooked. My love ordered the filet mignon with shrimp and fried rice. Her steak had been cut into little chunks resembling beef stew chunks. Her shrimp were also overcooked to the point she didn't want to eat them. She said the best part of her meal was the Miso soup ?. Otherwise her salad had too much salad dressing.

This is my fiancé and I ‘s favorite sushi place, always a good experience here.

Tried to make a reservation from our of town for a celebration for our son who's in the Army. Staff was extremely rude and not at all helpful!
