Top tips

Ask about: animal ingredients Ask about: cross-contamination Ask about: mixed vegan claims

  • For takeaway, ask for agedashi tofu broth and crispy tofu packed separately to keep the coating crisp.
  • Good to know: Ask which sushi rolls are vegan and confirm their ingredients; a diner reported maki and tofu rolls were available after the restaurant stopped prioritizing vegan food.

  • Confirm the current payment method before visiting: older reviews report cash-only, but a regular said the restaurant later stopped requiring cash.
  • Good to know: Allow extra time for takeaway; one regular previously experienced waits 25–45 minutes beyond the quoted pickup time, though their later order was ready as promised.

About

Kenji serves sushi, ramen and bento in a compact Japanese-style dining room in Stockbridge, with reviewers praising its carefully made rolls and relaxed decor. Vegan choices have narrowed: a 2025 diner reported that staff no longer prioritize vegan food, and shared fryers and dashi make some dishes unsuitable; confirm ingredients and preparation before ordering.
