Kano Cafe

Kano Cafe is a Solid place to stop and get some pho. It was spicy and Definitely full of flavor. Our order was served to us very quickly. The staff was very kind and courteous towards myself and my family and were very attentive. The wings were cooked perfectly and the sauce they coated them with was tangy and delicious. They are in the old Yoshi building and have some work to do as far as making the building their own, but everything was still very clean and organized. But the food for sure is top notch. Definitely one of the best in Temple for Vietnamese cuisine. I would highly recommend this place for a large family dinner or even just a quick bite to eat. I will definitely be bringing my family back here

Just amazing. I love Vietnamese food and have really struggled with the lackluster options in this area. I am beyond ecstatic to have a new option with awesome food that doesn’t require a drive to Austin.

We’ve stopped here twice in the past 3 weeks and each time the food was outstanding - pho ga, egg rolls, lo mein, bahn mi - all delicious. I struggle to get my kids to try new restaurants and they’ve already asked to go back. Definitely on our list of favorites now.

We didn’t really know what to expect when walking in but let me say what they lack in atmosphere they made up for in with the food! Absolutely delicious pho! That broth is perfect, and she explained how to eat it authentically by dipping the beef in a mixture of sauces and lime. The portion sizes were huge and everything was so fresh, even at 8pm on a Friday night. My daughter had the lo mein which was also fresh!

My 2nd time ordering from here. I get the house special pho and it is amazing! It's a big serving and well worth the money. I ordered today, and wasted my broth in the car. I also forgot to place an order for 2, so I went back in to ask for the extra order and another broth. They were so laid back and understanding. He told me he wouldn't charge me for the extra broth. It was my fault completely so that really made my day. I also had a great conversation with a great guy while waiting. It was a very warm experience, I just had to leave a review. I found my new Pho place!

We had called at 11:30 am for a party of 25 at 5:30pm plenty of time in advance and was told they could accommodate us. Only around 15 of us showed up and we didn't even order hibachi because they said it wasn't available. We had hungry tired children and this was a birthday dinner.

Restaurant is under new management and the owner is still working on hiring a full staff. With that said, they have a great employee named Shaynah who provided excellent customer service. She was triple tasking while still ensuring all tables were being attended. Restaurant received only 3 stars due to the lack of sushi, hibachi and limited drinks including Chai tea. Restaurant was clean and it appears they are still remodeling.

Enjoyed dinner at Yoshi. The food was good, the staffed seemed a bit stressed....I usually don't see many cars there so this night was busier. If they created a cozier atmosphere-- dim the lights, add some lanterns or music, this would be great date spot, or sushi and sake night!! Cozy it up Yoshi!!!

Had intended to have lunch at another place however it was closed. So after a quick google search decided to make the additional 20 min drive to have lunch here with my husband. 🤦🏽‍♀️ The lack of cars in the parking lot should have been asign… buuut we decided to check it out anyways. My husband and I were the only two there. Service started off good. Once we got our food it went down hill from here. My husbands shrimp for his bento box was so over cooked. They were like rubber. The sushi roll I ordered was not what I received ( later found out they “don’t do crunch”, which was never explained to me when I ordered the CRUNCH ROLL that said it had crunch topping in the description 😒). Something was very off tasting about the sushi. So I didn’t eat it. After our food was dropped off he never returned to the table. No refills, didn’t check how the food was. This was our first time so we sat there with our debit card out, empty drinks, and food pushed aside for easily 15 mins and still he never came back. Wasn’t told we were supposed to go to the counter to checkout. We just stood up and hopped it would grab his attention that we were ready to go. All in all. I left hungry & would not recommend this place to anyone.

Best sushi in central Texas. We live in Killeen and decided to venture out to find some yummy fresh sushi.
We decided to check out Yoshi's due to the fact they were open earlier than other restaurants.
First impression the ambience was bright and welcoming and you can see the place is clean right when you walk in, not like some other places in Killeen, I won't say names.
Shaynah, seated us and took our order she was very sweet 100% responsive and I won't fail to mention the only waiter serving about 4 different groups at a time, she did absolutely wonderful explaining the menu and answering any questions we had. We ordered the sushi deluxe where the chef chose what to add in and he did an amazing job my mother was extremely satisfied. I got the Mt Fuji roll, although it took a minute to come out because chef had to prep and cook the eel, I promise when it came out you could smell it from across the room. The fish was fresh across the board, extremely tasty and reminded us of home back in Hawaii. I would like to add that both the chef and Ms shaynah does absolutely everything to give you amazing service and food. Shout out to the owner, you're doing amazing.!

They stole my money through Uber eats. They kept saying that they sent my order off with the first Uber driver, which never came to me. I tried to get a refund through Uber. I was not able to try to get a refund through them or was not able to get one from Yoshi’s The food isn’t really that great here anyway, taste old and freezer burnt at times. I just like to support them because the people are nice. But never again!! You will never get a red cent from my family and friends I sent to help you guys with your establishment or myself! So thank you very much for your terrible service today!

They were out of sushi rice and had very little fish. I stopped bc they were advertising a weekend menu which they no longer have. The owner/boss was in Dallas partying and didn't care about this restaurant. Big party of clients came in and left because the restaurant wasn't doing hibachi, again, advertised on their website. This restaurant will definitely fail.

We had our family of 6 come in for lunch after a drs appointment. It looked like a little hole in the wall, not very attractive from the outside, and I was skeptical, but we decided to try it out. We were immediately greeted by the sweetest older man that sat us, and got us all water while we decided on drinks. The owner/chef came out and made suggestions as well as taking our order for us. He was so nice and attentive, not just to us, but our kids as well! The food was absolutely delicious. My husband and I both got Pho, and my oldest daughter got lo mein. Our 2 4 yr olds got chicken with rice, and since the kids plates come with sushi, the chef made it fresh, and brought it out by hand to add to their plates after they cooled! It was all so, so good. Our 1 yr old was making a typical toddler mess with noodles and rice, and as I was cleaning it up (I don't like to leave messes like that in establishments) the older gentleman came up and told me to stop and let him take care of it. I told him I wasn't going to leave a mess like that for them, and cleaned it up, while he insisted the whole time! They were both so friendly and inviting, and the food was incredible. We will definitely be visiting again to try different food!

Went for sushi as I love sushi. Ordered myself a deluxe, the sushi was okay but the Wasabi in it tasted less like Wasabi and more of slightly spicy play dough which ruined it. Nearly vomited on reflex, and I tried having a few more pieces or so to warm up to it but I couldn't. 25 minutes later and I can still taste that spicy playdough.
The sushi itself was either mostly cream filled or vegi filled which is fine but where's my sushi part? At least the Salmon Roe I ordered tasted as it should and I enjoyed that.
Lost 50 bucks and like 10 other pieces of potential sushi when I could've gone to bushes chicken, but the atmosphere and service was good!

Decided to go here after reading the good reviews. We were looking forward to some good sushi. We were seated quickly, and the staff was friendly and kind, and the drink order was taken right away. But we were then informed that no sushi would be available for at least 45 minutes as the rice was cooking. It was only 6:45pm. We ordered other items off the menu, and it was ok at best. We were pretty disappointed at the end of the visit. It was a Friday evening and the place was not overly busy, so I'm just not sure what happened. To note, the hibachi side was also not operating and not an option. Hope they can get it together soon.

Honestly I've had store-bought better than that. The sushi the California roll and the crab rangoon. First off the sushi tasted like it had dish soap in it. And the crab Rangoon to be honest, where was the crab rangoon? All I had was the wonton. It was absolutely Disappointing

As a new transplant to Central Texas, I have been desperate to find authentic sushi with high quality ingredients and Phó that taste like it does in its country of origin. I’ve been to them all and I eat when I travel. This establishment boasts a classically trained sushi chef who could hold his own anywhere in the world. The offerings are generous and the tastes are nuanced. The price is half of what an experienced sushi fan would expect to pay, and the staff is friendly and open to educating you about where their product is sourced. I’ll come here weekly.

We were craving pho and spied a few cars in the parking lot on a Saturday night, so we decided to embark on the unknown. We were hopeful and optimistic going in. Whereas some restaurants might smell like a fish tank, or stale fart when you walk in, this one smacks you in the face with the overwhelming scent of Fabuloso. Observing the purple, liquid-filled spray bottle out in the open, I’m not so sure it’s used on just the floors. We were greeted promptly by a friendly, smiling server and seated right away in a hybrid booth with chairs on one side. We ordered crab rangoons and #4 pho. We ordered the eggrolls but were warned by our server that they take an unusually long time to cook and may come out after our meal. The crab rangoons were really just fried wonton wrappers, sans crab filling. No dipping sauce. The pho was okay; however, no basil was included with the pho veggie add-ons, as well as lemons instead of limes. The broth had good flavor, but left an oily mouth feel. The service was good - the best part actually. The lighting inside is super bright - reminiscent of when the ugly lights come on in a nightclub at 2:30am. The restrooms were Fabuloso clean with just one minor mystery situation going on with the toilet in the large stall. We won’t be back, but happy to see some reviewers enjoyed their experience.

The food quality is surprisingly high, I had no expectations when coming into this restaurant, and I have to admit that the quality recipes surprised me - with the exception of the fact that the wasabi comes out of a tube instead of being freshly prepared. If the wasabi were prepared fresh, I would have given 5 stars.

The restaurant was clean, staff was hard working and friendly. My wife had the Bento box, and the chicken and rice were very well prepared. I had the combo lomein- the grilled chicken was perfect as was the shrimp - I recommend that the owner put more than 4 jumbo shrimp in the dish - shrimp is very cheap right now.

All in all - we were very pleased on all fronts and give 2 thumbs up!

Food was subpar. It took very long for fried rice and dumplings to arrive. 3 bowls of random pho (same table) came out first.

There is nothing listed on the menu about allergens. Come to find out (the hard way) that the fried rice is cooked in oyster oil. An individual at my table had an allergic reaction. When the question was brought to the server’s attention she took too long to go and ask. Then following nothing was done by the chef or server to reassure us. Still charged for the food that nearly killed a member of my party.

I thought under new management we would have a better experience but clearly not.

We were driving by and seen this place was open so we went ahead and tried it. I love Pho and La Dalat is my go to place in this area. It's an ok Pho but no where near as good as La Dalat. I got the big bowl wich is just really a large and for $22 definitely not worth the price. The meatballs in the Pho were the best part. My wife and I also got Sushi and honestly it taste like HEB sushi. Nothing special at all and very small rolls. Our go to spots depending on what sushi we want are Seoul Garden and our favorite is Nami in belton with big Mike! The sushi at Yoshi is nothing compared to these 2 places. Overall I wouldn't recommend this place as a go to for Pho or Sushi. Try it if you like but it's not for us.

I know I've said this several times now, but i promise it's the truth. THIS place has the absolute BEST TASTING Phó in Temple. I've tried Saigon Café & La Dalat locally and I can tell you the biggest difference is the richness in their broth. Yoshis is the most expensive of the two, but you are definitely paying for the quality and the quantity. I asked for shrimp pho even though its not on their menu and they delivered a fantastic tasting dish. This is my new favorite place! They are still getting all the kinks out from reopening, but they are doing fabulous!

July 6, 2023 hours show open until 3pm. It's lunchtime - 1:30pm but the doors are locked, lights are off, and parking lot is empty.
I hope everything's ok work this business.

UPDATED: They reopened some months ago. The interior completely changed. I love the Sakura tree at the entrance. The seating area is bright and fresh compared to the dingy appearance from before. They still have the hibachi section with a show if you choose that with your family. Their menu now includes Vietnamese cuisine.

We usually dine in the common seating area. They've got entertaining sights on the big screen TV's. There are booths, benches, and tables for two. It appears more inviting. Next time I think I'd want to sit at the bar area in front of the sushi chef.

They may get busy but the service is really warm and friendly. There was only one chef making our rolls, but I like that the food was served in good, spaced apart timing, because we wouldn't have enough space on the table otherwise.

We were super satisfied with our order:
Garlic Edamame
Tiger roll
Rainforest roll
Spicy tuna roll
Sakura roll
Note the Grilled Chicken rice plate was a little on the dry side, but it was a large portioned plate.

It's great to see they're back in business!

OLD REVIEW: We enjoy coming here because of their freshly made butter-like fish nigiri. Our favorite appetizer is their tuna nachos. Our meals are always served with miso salad and soup. We love Jamie. She remembers us everytime we walk in, she's super pleasant, her service is attentive, and she's a people person!

We made reservations for Valentine’s Day and we came in and the lady said she thought another couple that had just came in before us was us …. We literally gave our name and number , so the hibachi table filled up and we walked out , thanks for ruining Valentine’s Day ? Second try we spent almost 200 on takeout for our family and the plates were half empty , not at all the portions they give at the hibachi grill except we still paid the same amount for the takeout , they messed up almost every single plate , literally every single one had something wrong w it , ridiculous. Will not be xomin back nor do I recommend to anyone else , take a drive and go to seoul garden on west Adams

Half the dining room wasnt being used. We were seated at a half booth facing the entrance. The table didn't have any utensils or napkins so when we got our food we had to wait for them. The food was good but they were out of a couple things I wanted, like crab rangoons. The appetizer honey moon was good but we got it late in the meal. I ordered a pho ga and asked for dark meat, but they only had white. My husband noticed the bar had visible dirty dishes that weren't being taken away. The server wasn't attentive.

Our wait was about a minute. We both got sushi and pho. The Sakura roll is incredible! The pho is so tasty. 🔥

Our server was soft-spoken and kind. I think the hibachi chef was the one who was snapping at him soon after we arrived. He made us and the tables around us uncomfortable. He even snapped at him in front of a table.

Definitely will return. Hopefully the server we had will still be here.

Bizarre experience considering reviews. They appeared to be short staffed which was fine. The food was amazing but the experience was off. The wall next to me had brown sauce all over it and one of the employees??? Was playing bad bunny music videos on the tv with excessive nudity and a man being kidnapped.. idk. She was wearing leggings and a tshirt which made me think she was a customer until she went behind the sushi bar and was talking to the sushi chef. I ordered 2 sushi rolls and received one ~15 minutes later and the other about 20 minutes after the first. We received my boyfriends dish about another 10 minutes after that which is fine and it was an enormous portion for the price. Way later on the waitress checked in on us and I was curious about my pho to be told they were done making it for the night but she then checked and it was ready in the back? It is advertised they close at 10 but sushi closed at 8 and when another group was advised of this they asked about hibachi and were told they would need a reservation. Im never one to write restaurant reviews unless I have a positive experience as I understand mishaps happen but this was just such a weird experience. The food was really good though so if you are ever looking for takeout, this is your place

Enjoyed Pho noodle soup today at Yoshi's.... so delicious and satisfying! The broth was authentic tasting with hints of anise and cinnamon. Generous portion of meat too. It was served with the traditional fixings of fresh Thai basil leaves, jalapeno slices, and lime wedges. The restaurant was clean. We got the combination Pho and we'll definately be back again. If you like sushi, they have a sushi chef ready to prepare your favorites. Would like to come back and try their hibachi with a group of friends sometime

I had brought my daughter to temple for an appointment. Wasn't feeling well, so we decided on pho. So delicious!!!!!! Took a while, but totally worth it.

We LOVE this place, and we’re so happy they’re open again! The food is amazing, and they’ve even expanded their menu to include things like pho (which, by the way, my wife says is phenomenal). Their sushi has been, and always will be, out of this world, and the sushi bar inside the restaurant is very elegant.

The staff is so friendly and helpful, and their partners are absolute gems. I had the pleasure of meeting Candice, who was kind enough to not only take extreme care with my order, but also help me bring the several bags of my to-go order to my truck and chat with me for a bit.

All around, this is a great place with great food and great people. They’re a hidden gem of Temple for sure!

Food is excellent and well worth the wait. We sat at the hibachi and had to wait for more people to join us before the chef would come out, as there were only 2 of us, and I guess he wanted a larger party to serve. Atmosphere is sub-par and gives off a cheap, fast food feeling, rather than an intimate dining experience you would expect from a Hibachi grill. Our server seemed distracted and overwhelmed, and had to be reminded multiple times to bring us things we needed or ordered.

Went back to day to try the hibachi experience and wasn’t disappointed. Service was a bit slow starting out but recovered. We ordered a sushi roll to start which was very good but slices were too big for one bit making it awkward to eat. Those are my only complains. Our chef was very entertaining and the food was nothing short of delicious. See pics.

Yoshi’s is back open and better than ever. Starting off with the atmosphere, the restaurant looks great with bright colors and an open dining area. When I walked in I was quickly greeted, seated and my drink order taken. For my entree I ordered the shrimp fried rice with Miso soup. The soup came out first and like Miso soup should be it had a subtle but very good flavor. The star of the show was my shrimp fried rice. I was pleased to see that this restaurant doesn’t feel the need to put peas in their rice. I sampled the rice before adding soy sauce and honestly it didn’t need a thing. It was delicious right out of the kitchen. The dish came with a generous amount of shrimp and they were de-tailed, deveined and cooked perfectly. I really enjoyed my experience here and will be back with the family to try the hibachi experience. Good food and atmosphere are only 2/3 of the experience though. Service is what pulls it all together. My server Shane didn’t disappoint he was very attentive and my drink was never empty for any appreciable amount of time. Thanks Shane!

Very clean and well lit restaurant, staff was very friendly and polite. Food looked very good . Unfortunately when you work out of town alone they do not want to cook for you on the grill . They asked me if I would like a regular table I said no . Then Asked if I would like to wait for other people to arrive so it would fill the grill , I understand and really like fried rice and have no problem waiting for the table to fill . But that was still not the answer they were looking for . I felt like I was not welcome to dine alone or needed to eat by the rules forced to maximize profit for restaurant.if that was the case I’m sure the product they buy would be the lost cost available and would not receive an enjoyable experience. I work out of town and understand eating alone effects the wait staff and table turn over , so I always tip extra due to this . Was not asking for anything special just to wait for the hibachi grill , those are the first thing I look for in a new town . For this I would not recommend this place , they are all about maximum money and not customers experience and enjoyment. Sorry I was inconvenience.

Yoshi's was closed when we moved here so we were happy to see they reopened. When we walked in, we knew some work had been done because it was light, white, bright, fresh and beautiful. The art work of various menu items was exceptional. Shane greeted us with a smile and seated us. We each got a Bento Box and even with a few substitutions it was fresh and delicious with the best fried rice we have had since we lived in CA! Do they have a few kinks to work out? Yes, but minor and I am sure will get worked out as they go along. Be patient and supportive and speak up if you have an issue so they can address it. This was so good we can't wait to return and I want to spend my 75th birthday there 12/20 with my family. SO GOOD... Support this place because it is a gem. See you on my birthday!!!!!!!!!!!

We had been to this restaurant the week before and were so delighted and excited but we went back last Saturday 11/3 and were so disappointed. We had the hibachi again, brought our daughter-in-law for her birthday. They told us it would be an hour wait and seated us at the hibachi. We thought no problem we would order Sushi while we wait. Also, they told us they would send us complimentary egg rolls while we wait. We did not get our Sushi until the Hibachi started and neither the egg rolls. They were out of noodles and did not get that with our Hibachi and they did not bring out the salad until we were paying for our check. It was a horrible experience all around.
