Creative robatayaki-driven Asian fusion with standout flavors and polished service; portions are small and pricing feels premium, so come for inventive plates and cocktails, not a bargain.
Kasui delivers A-grade performance through exceptional food quality anchored in creative robatayaki fusion and outstanding service attentiveness that guides diners through the experience. Solid consistency across repeat visits reinforces reliability, though modest portions and premium pricing prevent the restaurant from reaching grade A territory. The charming terrace setting and loyal following position it competitively among the area's better neighborhood restaurants.
Tucked on a small square in Palma’s old town, Kasui feels intimate and lively without being hectic. Servers guide you through sharing plates while the robata grill perfumes the room. One diner mused, "we watched the chefs plate while our server kept us perfectly paced," capturing the warm, attentive service that many note. The cooking leans creative Asian fusion anchored in robatayaki: miso-marinated fish, Iberian pork with teriyaki, and yuzu-trimmed desserts. Expect bold sauces, cross-cultural pairings, and a compact menu augmented by specials. Portions are modest and prices premium, but many feel the craft and originality deliver a satisfying experience for flavor-focused eaters. Families will find some approachable options—bao buns, jasmine rice, salmon, and mochi—though the menu is small and flavors can be assertive. There is no kids menu, so adventurous kids may thrive while picky eaters might prefer simpler plates like bao or rice.
