I found this place through the Michelin restaurant guide.
A cozy place to enjoy authentic Japanese food. We ordered rolls, salad, and sashimi. The salmon wrapped crab meat sashimi is my favorite.
Be mindful of their schedule for lunch as they open for only three hours from 11:30 am to 2:30 pm.

Chef’s choise sushi and Chef’s choise sashimi are savory.
It melts in your mouth.
Also, Kaori Bento and Chirashi bowl are really good.
Servers are very kind.

Wow! The sashimi was very fresh, and sweet. Usually I don’t like uni because most of the time it tastes “fishy”, but not this time. The uni was sweet and creamy. The service was great, the staff are very friendly. Oh, and don’t forget to finish with their Yuzu sorbet, so refreshing.

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.

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.

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.

One of my favs. Their sushi and sashimi are great for the price (you get whatcha pay for). Their tempura is also very good. You can taste that they change their oil on a regular basis. The breading on the tempura is just right. Small intimate setting. Family friendly. Service has always been friendly and inviting throughout the years of patronage. When in the area and want good sushi, sashimi and tempura, make sure you stop by and indulge yourself in their skillful art of sushi making.
Plenty of free parking. Get there early because they do fill the small dining room quickly. There is a sushi bar if you prefer that over a table or a booth.

> The food was excellent, and the only downside of the restaurant was that the server’s hand movements were a bit too fast.

Good sushi, great atmosphere.
1st star Short staff for a Tuesday evening. Recommend 3 front end staff to juggle pick ups orders and serving a full restaurant. Long wait times and numerous patron calls towards waitress/waiter.
2nd star – Fresh dozen of oysters were not good. At $4/each they were Full of shells and sand. Couldn’t even finish them they were that bad. Recommend to rinse them out after being shucked.
