Kizuna Sushi

The service was very friendly and prompt! We ordered the spicy dragon and the raider roll. They came out fairly quickly, but I know they made them fresh because we sat at the bar counter. Love the Totoro artwork inside :)

I went yesterday for lunch to try this place with new ownerI used to go there since they opened with original Japanese owner, our favorite dish was always Tempura Donburi. This time we ordered lunch box. Both chicken & beef meats are tender, but too much sweet teriyaki sauce was covered. Sashimi & rolls are okay. Overall nothing special.

First review of 2025We were in the mood for sushi on the first day of 2025, and decided to order take out from Kizuna. We had dined in here before but didn't get a chance to post a review. This time we only ordered sushi and sashimi. The sashimi portion size was generous and the fish was melt in your mouth quality (6 pcs order) and they served an extra piece with the order. All the sushi rolls (all specialty rolls), were great, really enjoyed the ones with calamari on the outside as well as fried scallops! I cannot comment on the service but as I recall, the service was good last time we dined here... Interior is decorated with manga framed characters and has a cute modern Japanese vibe to it...Solid place to order sushi from.

Solid sushi!This restaurant has such cute vibes. We came in on a Wednesday evening and were seated immediately. Friendly service and food came out promptly. Food:- Mango Crunch: We could definitely taste the mango - where at some point it was very overpowering. They were generous with the large mango pieces in the roll, especially the mango sauce. We thought it could've done fine without the extra sauce. 7/10- Sunrise: The salmon tasted fresh and soft while the tuna had a bounce to it. The tuna had a slight fishy aftertaste and the roll itself was tangy. 7/10- Avengers: Hugeee rolls! This was our favorite. We enjoyed the different slices of fish on top drizzled in the spicy Mayo and tobiko. The deep fried shrimp inside gave a different texture to the roll. 9/10- Spider: Another huge roll! The deep fried soft shell crab was really yummy and it wasn't too soft or too hard. I was not expecting yamagobo (pickled burdock root) inside, which gave a pleasant crunch and slight pickle-y taste to the roll. 8/10- Rainbow: It didn't really stand out much to me. The tuna and albacore had a slight fishy taste to them, but the others tasted fine. The rice was a bit too tangy in some parts for me. 7/10Definitely give this place a chance for some of their big rolls (bang for your buck!) and vibe-y interior. I'm a fan of their Studio Ghibli art work!

Kizuna rebranded in recent months and is now focused on bentos and sushi! Still an excellent and solid place providing Japanese cuisine - the bentos still feature a teriyaki protein (chicken, beef, salmon) as the entree, with choice of 1 or 2 sides, and the sides include the choice of various sashimi, rolls and hand rolls. Portion size is great for the price, not cheap but pretty fair for the area. The bentos also come with soup, rice, and salad as well. I've personally tried the salmon teriyaki bento and the beef teriyaki bento -- both were excellent. For sides, we particularly enjoyed the sashimi (3 thick pieces), tuna roll and california hand roll. There's also non-sushi side options like tonkatsu and gyoza as well, you can choose from almost a dozen options. They still offer online order like they did before the rebrand, and it was super easy to submit & get a confirmation. Order was ready when I arrived to pick up. Parking can be a bit tricky on weekends due to Dynasty nearby, but park closer to the dance studio and you shouldn't have any issues. Staff was friendly and greeted me right away when I walked in. Haven't dined in since the rebrand, so can't speak to that, but will definitely be back!

I came here on a Wednesday with a friend, since I had previously came here back when it was Kizuna curry! I was curious whether the rebrand was successful or not, and in my opinion it was!They serve a bit of everything so it was difficult to decide on what to order. I opted for the 4 piece salmon sashimi and the chicken katsu curry, since I wanted to see if their recipe had changed after changing their brand. My friend ordered the scallop hand roll and mixed tempura. I tried one of the shrimp pieces and it was really good! The breading was light and crisp, not too heavy. It let the flavor of the shrimp shine through. The fish was fresh and generously cut. The curry was the most polarizing to me- it wasn't the same curry I remembered, and it didn't stand out to me as much as their old recipe did. I wish they'd serve it with beef sukiyaki or something that isn't katsu/breaded to help absorb the curry flavor along with the rice. I love what they've done with the interior- previously it was all take-out boxes and self-serve water dispensers, likely remnants of when they were operating throughout COVID when their doors were not open for diners. Luckily, it is now fully furnished and has a lot of Studio Ghibli posters and American memorabilia up on the wall. Really stylish, I look forward to trying it once more.

Overall, it's 3.5 stars for me. I got the Mango Crunch here and it was decent! Crispy tempura flakes on the roll were tasty. The salmon was good quality, but I think for the price - it was not worth $18. The roll would fall apart at the touch and the mango contrasted the crab salad inside. I wouldn't come back on my own, but if a friend asked me to go... I'm willing to give it a second chance!

This is a new place. I found it on yelp. Came here with a friend. Had dragon roll and spider roll. It was very fresh and good. We had garlic edamame and it was super tasty. Family owned and ran. Super friendly lady. Clean restaurant. Looking forward to see it grow. .

The food is very good made by Korean cook. The portions are more than sufficient and the favors are right on. Its one of the better Japanese restaurants.

Our family did take out yesterday. We ordered sushi and several teriyaki and tempura dishes; enough for 6 people. The food was ready in 20 minutes and packaged and ready to go when we arrived. The lady at the counter was friendly. When we got home and ate, everyone was quite surprised at the food quality. Everything was fresh and delicious! There are so many other places to order Japanese food, but now that we've tried Kizuna Sushi, this will be our go-to for Japanese food! Thank you, Kizuna Sushi.
