Went here with my partner for Valentine's day. He's not big on seafood, and our server, Tina, was a big help with making recommendations! Overall the atmosphere was wonderful though the space itself is a bit small. Everything tasted very fresh and the drinks were delicious! Once again want to shout out Tina as she really made our experience wonderful! Would highly recommend!!

Third time’s the charm — and Kissho House just keeps getting better. I made my third trip to Kissho House last night and finally got to try their new Artisan DIY Platter. Let me just say—it did not disappoint. For $79, this platter is an absolute steal. You get to build your own hand rolls exactly how you like them, with super fresh fish and a beautiful spread of ingredients. It’s interactive, fun, and honestly, it feels like a mini culinary event. The platter also comes with a comforting bowl of miso soup that just warms you up from the inside. Everything about the experience felt thoughtful. I also added an extra order of uni still as sweet and delicate as I remember from previous visits. So fresh and satisfying. Their cocktails were very good too ! highly recommend.

We love the quality of the fish at Kisho House. You can definitely notice a difference. The hamachi with Serrano pepper and ponzu sauce melts in your mouth. And the chicken karate is the perfect appetizer. We also really love the lamb chops on the robatayaki menu. Robert had uni (pictured) and said that it was uh-mazing.

When I came to Kissho House, I truly felt at home. The grilled lamb chops here were flavorful and tender, so much so that we ordered an extra portion after finishing our meal. The sashimi was also very fresh, and the tableware used for presentation was exquisite. I'm sure I'll be back again.

Beautiful way to spend an evening! We went for the Omakase meal and it was absolutely phenomenal. Everything was prepared in front of you by the chef and each bite was delicious and delicate. By the end of the extensive menu (about 15 courses!) we were pleasantly full and we couldn’t stop talking about it. The cocktails were very good as well. We most enjoyed the jasmine and matcha tea cocktail. We also asked for their recommendation on sake which was a wonderful pairing with the sushi courses. It is pricey but well worth it for special occasions. My wife is gluten free and allergic to uni, and the chef and kitchen took special care to create full replacement dishes and keep her items separate as needed. They took such care!
