We loved the sushi selection from chef’s omakase menu, and delicate delicious cooked food from the kitchen. Overall, we had a great experience at Sushi Kashib, even though chef Shiro Kashiba wasn’t represent.

We enjoyed our first experience so much that we came back 4 days later. Our 2nd meal was even better than the first! We enjoyed the sushi rolls and sashimi very much. The garden room has a great vibe and although it can get a little loud, it’s worth it. Service is always good. We will be back!
