Kishimoto Japanese Restaurant

I love all of the dishes here. All are sooo delicious and we love coming here and have not had any less than amazing experiences. Hats off to the chefs. You got to come try!

Amazing Japanese cuisine! Each item is prepared with attention to detail, and the server explains the intricacies for each food served. Great ambiance and service. Food was all excellent, well presented, and can't emphasize the ingenuity and craftsmanship that goes in. Highly recommend the Smoked Tai Kama, Wagyu Broth Udon, and can't go wrong with their fresh sashimi from Japan and Oshizushi!

I came here as an invite with some work colleagues, and an uncle. Our experience here was the bomb. Our most memorable dish was the smoked aburi in the glass. I could eat those all day, mind you it's pricey. The caterpillar roll was very cute in presentation and delicious as well. All the seafood was at high quality and very very fresh. Parking is very easy everywhere too. As for our services, very attentive. I love how they take their time to explain each and every dish. The decor is updated and it's cozy. I had a great time here and I would definitely come back again. Prices are on the high side, but you definitely have to try this place at least once. I'm addicted.

Delicious food and beautiful presentation. It is a great place to go on a solo date or date night. Good ambiance, delicious food, delicious wine, fresh, local… 5 stars! They infuse their own honey with foraged fruit and flowers and use that to make their delicious sorbet and ice cream. It is definitely pricey so go when you are celebrating or need to treat yourself after a hard day! 100% worth it for a once in the while delicious meal. Good service and lovely experience at the bar.

I had such an amazing experience here! Every dish was like a work of art, both in presentation and taste. Chirashi Donburi: Absolutely delicious and beautifully presented with a unique 20-grid design. Each section had premium ingredients like bluefin tuna, wagyu beef, salmon, and even caviar. The sushi rice was perfectly seasoned with shiso, sesame, ginger, and pickled radish—an explosion of ocean flavors in every bite. Smoked Oshi: Served under a glass dome, releasing an incredible cherrywood smoke aroma as it’s unveiled. The smoked salmon was tender and full of flavor—pure happiness in every mouthful!

Love this hidden gem spot on commercial drive. Been coming here for years. Love it so much we came at opening to get a table for 5. Always very fresh and very artistic in the presentation. My mil loved the rice they used. Cooked to perfection and texture was amazing. The smoked sablefish was sooo delicious and the soba noodles were also perfectly cooked.

Ordered the spicy karaage, dynamite roll, and smoked oshi. Chef brought me pickled fruit between courses and sorbet before leaving, on the house. Everything was plated with expertise. The pickled fruit was especially adorable. Definitely reminiscent of the places I've visited in Japan.
