I had bookmarked Kinari a while back on my places to go and since I was in the area running some errands I was lucky enough to drop by. Surprisingly the place was not crowded at all, and Ella seated me right away. I really enjoyed all the sushi and was treated to a complimentary salmon collar, which I had never tasted before... delicious! Will definitely come back because this was one of my more enjoyable sushi spots that I've discovered so far! Really good sushi with great service in a really nice setting!

What a cozy neighborhood sushi spot... I came here on a Saturday night and it was a mostly full house. Thankfully we had called ahead and reserved a table. They had fresh sashimi and sushi combo options and we ordered a few appetizers, the gyoza, tempura, spicy tuna crispy rice, and shishito peppers (some of these were very hot). I had a pleasant experience and will come back again when my next sushi craving hits.

We had a really wonderful and intimate valentine's day dinner here together. The hosts were very helpful in deciding what was Gluten Free or not. I ended up very full and very happy. Highly recommend!
