| - So true story: I am meeting four friends for happy hour at Kabuki before we head to the screening of Paper Heart with the free passes we won from Yelp.
I had never been there & the average on Yelp was 3 stars, but we needed to head to a place at Tempe Marketplace so I gave it a shot.
I arrived 1st and was waiting for friends to show up. I asked if they had any vodka drinks on hh special or well drink specials. The guy said they only had beer & Saki on special for hh. Being the twitter addict that I am, I tweeted that there was no vodka on their hh specials which was lame, especially since I am allergic to yeast & don't care for saki.
A manager came up to me a little while later & asked if I was Julia. I said I was & he apologized that there was no vodka on the hh menu, but that he'd like to make up for it by giving me a free appetizer. Then he was like, "You are Julia right? Cause I couldn't see your eyes." I wasn't sure what he meant at the time, but then I realized he read my tweet & found me from my picture on twitter where my eyes aren't showing. Crazy.
I tried to get a veggie appetizer, but he suggested I get the lobster one, so I went with it.
The whole thing was crazy, but really awesome. This restaurant actually saw a customer tweet a complaint, found that customer, and offered something to make the experience better.
So awesome job Kabuki, and oh yeah pretty decent sushi & service as well.
Give them a try and follow them on twitter @KabukiCorporate
