Sushi was absolutely amazing – we sat at the bar and talked with the chef and he gave us some recommendations to split. All the fish was fresh and delicious- will absolutely be coming back when we’re in the area.

This place has 10/10 fresh fish like being at a local restaurant in Japan. The uni being Santa Barbara local made it a knockout. Toro tasting was absolutely bomb. If I lived locally I would eat here every week.

Kihon is truly something special, and a huge part of that is Victor. From the moment you walk in, his hospitality sets the tone for the entire experience. Victor isn’t just a great host — he’s a genuinely good person. Warm, attentive, and thoughtful in a way that makes you feel like a regular even on your first visit. You can tell he truly cares about people, not just the restaurant, and that kind of energy is rare.
Eddy was an absolutely phenomenal server. Knowledgeable, friendly, and perfectly paced — he made the experience seamless without ever being intrusive. He clearly takes pride in his work and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish.
And shoutout to Tito as well — such a great presence and part of what makes the team at Kihon feel so dialed-in and welcoming. The staff here works together effortlessly, and it shows.
Between the hospitality, the service, and the overall vibe, Kihon stands out as one of the best dining experiences in Long Beach. This is the kind of place you don’t just visit once — you come back for the people. Highly, highly recommend.

Amazing sushi place. My husband and I have been to Japan and this is the closest you can get for fresh sushi. Price is steep but definitely worth it for the quality you get. Shout out to Francisco, our sushi chef!

The fish is very fresh. And the service is good. Sushi chefs are very skillful at the art of sushi.
Really, you will be fully satisfied with any sashimi cut. There is always a nice variety. Yellowtail, mackerel, salmon…oh and the eel, sooo good.
