“This is by far the best Sushi spot in all of Southern California!! We found this little gem a few years ago and have been regulars since. Lately we spend every Friday night there, getting our usual line up of yellowtail sashimi with jalapeño, popcorn shrimp, garlic edamame, seaweed salad, cucumber salad, miso soup, the dude roll, and of course two blue crab hand rolls wrapped in soy paper (a must try!). Honestly, freshest and best quality ever and the consistency is on point. We love the family type staff that is always there with a friendly smile to greet and serve us, Eddie is our favorite server. We look forward to this place every time we go!”

“Amazing food always! I have been going since I first heard of Kihon and I never regret it. The fish and cuts are stellar and reminds me of Japan. Give them a try and you will not regret it.”

“I always love ordering spicy tuna on crispy rice from whichever sushi restaurant I go to, Kihon has hands down the best one!! The rice is perfectly crisp, the jalapeno is sliced just to the right thickness to get heat but not too much & the spicy tuna is always super fresh & perfect portion. Kihon has mastered the Spicy Tuna on crispy rice dish, well done!”

“Kihon is my favorite spot in LB to get fresh sushi. The tuna sampler which comes with 3 cuts of tuna is my go to order. Always fresh tasting!”
