Sushi... Decent. A lot of care went into the prep but the quality was average.

Honestly my favorite sushi in Minneapolis food and drinks are amazing! Serves was friendly and manager came to ask about my allergies which makes me feel safer. I got the zombie roll and it was so good and sushi chef's were knowledgeable and helped us identify new foods! Family from out of town love it here and in a fun walkable area, will be better once construction done tho

Starving after a long day flying I decided to Kiku takeout and/or delivery.I was excited to see how much thought they behind the packaging. First of all it's always a blessing when either your Uber eats or the restaurant puts in utensils. If you looking for chopstick you will have to request from the restaurant or driver. The to go order had a small piece of cardboard box right above the Pad Thai. It's small steps like this keep the food hot as if you're getting it right off the pan! The order consisted of Miso Soup, Edamame, and Pad Thai. The Vegetables in the Pad Thai, tasted like water. I'm assuming it's probably because they have their vegetables soaking in water for storage and refrigeration (common for restaurants to do).It was 56 minutes prior to close so I'm assuming the kitchen probably was in a hurry to close out. More than likely just grabbed out the veggies and threw them in the pan not allowing the excess water to be removed. Even sautéeing the veggies in first to really soak up in the sauce may have helped. The edamame was slightly under cooked which makes it tough to get the soybeans out. Maybe this is a restaurant is best experienced as a sit down spot and I recommend favoring their Japanese offerings not Thai.

Yummm! This place hit the spot after we did a wine tasting next door. We were walking by and just thought we would give it a try and we are so glad we did! We sat at the bar and the waiter was very helpful with recommendations for sushi! We tried the Bliss roll which was so so good. Highly recommended that roll. We also trying one more roll which I unfortunately for got the name but the presentation was very pretty! The menu had many options to choose from. After we were done someone said next time we come back to get the edamame!We will return for more sushi in the future.

I come here pretty often for sushi. If you've never had sushi before and want to try some, this is a great place to start. Any roll with shrimp tempura will be very tasty. They provide consistent service that is friendly.Last time I went, I ordered the California ranch roll, giozas and lo mein. Their California ranch roll is very tasty, definitely a safe choice if you're not into traditional sushi. The giozas are good. Crispy on the bottom, very soft on the top. The filling is flavorful. I wasn't impressed with the lo mein. I was expecting a soft thicker noodle and instead got what looks like a very thin chow main noodle. Overall if you want sushi in uptown, this is a good spot that's open late. They also do online QR code ordering inside. Parking is tough, side street parking will be your best bet during peak lunch/dinner times otherwise there might be parking on Hennepin. The vibe inside is chill, there is no dress code or any dress requirements. I've come in sweatpants and have also dressed up to come. They're never super busy so you'll probably always find a table and reservations are not necessary.

If you're looking for a good sushi joint in the uptown area, you gotta check out Kiku Bistro. I've ordered online for delivery many times but decided to venture into the restaurant this time. There's street parking right out front which is super convenient, you just have to pay via the MPLS Parking app. The ambiance was relaxed with low lighting. We were seated next to the sushi bar. Instead of physical menus and a server to take our order, we had to scan a QR code to view the menu and use that same website to order our food & drinks. I could see how this is more convenient and allows the guest to order more without waiting for a server to stop back at your table. But it was a bit confusing as a first time user of this website, especially when checking out and splitting the bill.That said, the interaction we had with the staff was positive! Everyone was very friendly and the food came out super fast! I also liked their unique selection of cocktails. I tried their old fashioned, but it came with rum, and I was surprised at how much I enjoyed it. I'll definitely be coming back to dine in at Kiku soon!!!

We sat at the bar and asked the bartender for recommendations on sushi rools. We ordered a couple of rolls and the bliss roll was our favorite. We would definitely go back again for sushi.

I'm always on the hunt for a good happy hour, and Kiku did not disappoint! My partner and I recently visited on a weeknight and were excited to learn that happy hour goes until 7pm! We got an excellent meal and drinks for a very reasonable price. We are excited to return to try other menu items!The sushi was fresh, and service was fast. I appreciated the variety and creativity of the menu. We were some of the only customers there, so we got a table immediately without a reservation. The booths felt very private. The parking seems like it'd be tricky on weekends. We were lucky to get a metered street spot right across from the restaurant.

The food was very good! I had the sriracha fried rice, miso soup, and a house salad. I did delivery and the food came hot and fresh! Not giving a full five stars because I asked for coke and got Diet Coke. Also, they put cold items in the bag with hot, so my salad was soft.Overall, I would definitely eat that fried rice again. Had a perfect KICK to it.

We used the delivery feature and our food came hot in 30 min from ordering! We were very impressed. We have been going to Kiku for years and the take out is just as good as dining in. A staple for us is the fried rice that comes with a delicious yum yum sauce. The beef and broccoli is another popular one for us. Our favorite sushi is the California ranch roll which is lightly deep fried. This time we also tried the Lake roll and Goofee roll. Both were good but did have quite a lot of rice. When we have eaten inside, are is ample seating including booths, and outdoor street seating in the summer. The parking in uptown can be difficult and busy.
