Very nice sushi place. Their tuna sashimi was almost as delicious as their fatty tuna, except it tasted slightly more "bloody". I would definitely go with tuna as a better deal.
Mackerel sushi was my next favorite item. It was flesh and more flavorful than many regular sushi bars.
I felt lucky finding monkfish livers here, but it was a bit leaner as I remembered... still liked it though.

Kaori Sushi never disappoints, we couldn't get enough of their Black Cod marinated in Miso and then torched with a flame to give it that smokey taste, absolutely amazing. The assortment of sushi was soooooo fresh and delicious. The surprise of the night though had to be the "That Roll", it's a riceless roll with seaweed salad, spicy tuna, soy paper and fried garlic and chili oil along the top.
I recently visited a kaori restaurant and had a mixed experience. The risotto was definitely one of the highlights - it was cooked to perfection and tasted great. The black cod was also a standout dish, with a delicious flavor that left me wanting more. Unfortunately, the chef's choice sushi was only average imo. Additionally, one thing I found disappointing was that they didn't strain the tea, which was unpleasant to drink. Overall, while the sushi was a bit of a miss, the risotto and black cod were definitely worth trying. I'd definitely come back to try other things as the setting was very cute.
Fantastic atmosphere and food. This place is small and cozy, like many small sushi joints in Japan. You might have to wait for a table but it will be worth it. If you are a small party sit at the bar and watch the masters work.
Very good enjoyed everything we ate the mini don was the best a must try. Fish was fresh the service was friendly got there when it first open at 5 so there was no waite but was busy when we left.
If you like that melt in your mouth sushi, this is your new spot! It was all delicious and we will definitely be frequenting here. Small, cute, and pricey but worth it!!!
Their blackened cod!
melts in your mouth, absolute fresh and delicious.
We tried their rolls, sushi and sashimi.
Worth every penny! We can't wait to return!
Best sushi place! The service is amazing, and the salmon sashimi was great. Hands down would come back if I am ever back in this area of SoCal.
Dined here with a few friends and the food was all too good!!! Wished I had taken photos but who's really got time for that? Like who in their right mind takes like 20 pictures looking for that "perfect angle" of each dish for an audience in social media whom more than likely either can care less or are tired of seeing their feed filled with pretentious self proclaimed foodies who think are culinary experts just because they dine out a few times a week, while there is delicious food right in front of your face ready to be eaten? Not I. Do yourself a flavor (pun intended) and eat here.
We've passed this location so many times and didn't notice it. The inside is adorable! You feel like you're in Japan but it's not overly done. The hostess was so sweet and we really felt safe inside and clean. We ordered the spicy spider roll and green tea crunchy roll and talk about fresh and packed full of flavor. One of the best quality chirashi I had for the price!
