"Tasted so freaking good!! I got the two of the 3 for $16 rolls. I got 2 dynamite rolls and 4 phillidalphia. Such good quality fish & sushi. The smoked salmon was quite literally delicacy. The fried sushi was still warm and not soggy upon arrival. So so much flavor. They even gave me extra sides. Filled up 2 adults, 1 pre-teen (a boy so he eats a lot!), and a kid. Even through door dash, i would say it is one of the most affordable deals I've found on restraunt sushi. I paid just $40!! I tipped my driver in person though. Still an amazing amazing deal! I 100% recommend."
"everything was amazing. hot and fresh upon delivery. shumai a bit small but makes up for it with huge flavor. tempura was crunchy, light and a great variety of veggies. sushi was fresh and tasted amazing. wishing doordash or kiku offered specials or promo codes, we would order a couple times week at least. everyone went crazy over the hibachi rice, next time we definitely need to order more. we are wondering how our order was made and delivered so quickly and still was so fresh and delicious. our driver was fast, efficient and extremely nice. overall the entire meal/experience was off the charts amazing. did I mention how amazing this place is? definitely more amazing than my spelling and punctuation but I'm in a hurry to get back to my dinner. 😁 bon appetit or should I say itadakimasu!"
