Opening late this year, Kasai, which opened in Brooklyn this past fall as the only kosher hibachi restaurant in the NYC region, will be opening a second location in Lawrence, NY on Central Ave. in the 5 Towns.
Since Kasai’s Brooklyn opening, 2 other kosher hibachi restaurants have popped up in the NYC area: Sushi Fussion opened a hibachi/sushi restaurant hybrid, and MeO is in process of opening a similar hibachi steakhouse and sushi restaurant in Queens.
The 5 Towns Kasai will be the fourth Glatt Kosher hibachi restaurant opening in about a year.
The new restaurant will contain a bar (including full liquor license), sushi bar, and 10 hibachi tables, some big enough to hold parties of 15-20 people. Altogether, the restaurant will seat 130 patrons.
