Beautiful restaurant. Food was excellent we had 4 small plates all very good. Service was great. Drinks were expensive though and valet is so far away from door we were freezing by the time we got our car! Also walkway slippery due to the snow we had. But overall very nice experience would recommend.

Outstanding ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This was the 4th time my fiancée and I went to Kinha for sushi. It’s been a fantastic meal every time. This time we started with the Rock Shrimp appetizer, tempura battered shrimp in a slightly spicy sauce, and Bonsai cocktail… a mixture of cold sake and plum wine over ice with shreds of cucumber. The Grandma and Volcano rolls are always spot on and they have a nice selection of sake to choose from. Definitely our favorite place for sushi. Also, we sat at a high top table on the bar side. We prefer the ambiance of the bar side over standard seating.
