I Love this lil place! it can get a bit crowded inside but they offer outside sitting. Don't let the price discouraged you from having great, fresh and delicious sushi.

Very friendly staff and welcoming, even for large parties.
They have an extensive menu vegan and not.
Some of the rolls are mind blowing, orhers your tasty normal options.
It's small but that makes it more of an experience.
I do have to warn, if in a hurry not the place. It's more old school slow dinning.
I'd definitely go back.

Super cozy venue, delicious food, and a great selection of vegetarian/vegan options. Had some of the mushroom avocado sushi, the cucumber and the stuffed mushroom appetize — fantastically paired with an Asahi. Worth swinging by.

Wonderful neighborhood sushi shop, incredible options for vegans and fish eaters alike... Still as delicious as ever!!

Great little restaurant in an unassuming part of town away from the hustle and bustle. Plenty of parking nearby as well which is quite rare for restaurants in this area. Everything looks very traditional Japanese style and the decor and staff are top notch. The food in general tasted good but a couple things missed the mark.
The miso soup was great. Piping hot almost couldn't even touch it. Flavor was rich and complex. The soba salad was a slight miss for me. While it looked extremely impressive with tons of ingredients, it wasn't very cohesive for me and there wasn't enough soba noodles. The 10pc sashimi platter was quite expensive but they give you a lot of fish. However each piece of sashimi was massive and really could have been cut in to three or more pieces to make it bite sized. The freshly grated wasabi was fantastic and traditional.

Delicious food, kind and thoughtful service, and really great value for what is offered. Some of the freshest salmon in the bay area, and the best sushi rice! Mix of traditional ingredients with modern preparations that delight and surprise. Highly recommended for daily meals and celebrations. Busy during peak hours as they are social distancing the tables.

Kiku sushu is a cute little place that usually always has a line during dinner time no matter what day of the week you go. Fortunately, we only waited around 15 mins. Theres usually more and enough street parking within a 3 minute walk
I always come here when I am craving fresh fish and sashimi. Their omakase is amazing but when your friends dont love sashimi like you do, the chirasho bowl is a good option to order for yourself. The yakisoba here is also super good I always try to get it! Usually I order seafood but we ordered beef this time. The beef was like a brisket cut, but it was a little tough to chew. But the noodles and veggies were still delicious!
The servers and chefs are super nice too

The attention is terrible, they take a long time to bring your food. In my experience in this place we asked for three royos which were taken separately. The cost was excessive for how insignificant our dishes looked and the miso soup, tasteless, we had to be fishing for the tofu cheese moronas that they put on it. I would like to give a more detailed review but I had a hard time and a taste in my mouth that I do not want to give more importance to this place. It's just bad.
