REAL, FRESH WASABI. Almost no Sushi spot in the US has real Wasabi because the shelf life is minutes after grating.
They also have fresh, locally sourced Uni, which is also incredibly rare.
Best Sushi spot in the area. Other places charge double or more, and don't have as good of a selection or knowledgeable staff. Chef Ken was extremely hospitable and made wonderful selections for the Omakase.
I went 4 different times during my stay in the area.

My daughter and I are on a road trip, and we discovered this little gem of a restaurant next to the hotel we were staying at. We were greeted by very sweet and gracious ladies. It was busy, but we were seated rather quickly. One of the waitresses came in and made small talk while she took our order, and we became aware that she spoke Thai and I was from Thailand. She made us feel super welcomed and extended a hospitality that was above what I expected at any restaurant. The sushi rolls were excellent, so much so that we even came back the next night for dinner. Our favorite sushi is the Cucumber Wrap, so refreshing and delicious!
My daughter commented that this is her favorite sushi restaurant, and we eat a lot of sushi in the Bay Area. On our next trip back to SoCal, we are definitely coming back again.

The sushi was really good.. the shiny was pretty good as well, our favorite though was the Happy Roll.. just go and try it!! We were not very happy with the service thus the 4 stars.. the place was pretty busy yes.. but it took a quite some time to get our orders, more time to bring the food.. and even more for the bills. We also had to explain three times that we needed to pay the alcohol separately, since we have to expense the food at work without the beers. Long story short, if you are patient and you have time to spare, by all means, yes go try the food!!

Let me tell that not too many people care about their customers these days. Kinza staff were on point. Took us on wirh only 15 minutes left on the clock and we got the full service, not even being rushed. On top of that, the rolls were amazing. The Laker roll, the hell of fire, the diamond roll, monkey brains, all were a hit! I only wish we could have had more time enjoy more food, but we left satisfied with food and service. We opted to sit outside and all was well worth it. Will come again and highly recommend it!

👩🏻🦳The food we ordered was nothing to rave about. My Udon soup had no flavor until I added a bit of soy sauce. The Ele roll was well i couldn't taste any of the Ele in the sushi roll🤷🏼♀️
