Andrea is amazing and the flavors at Kemuri are equally so. I'm a ramen snob and this place did not disappoint!
The dessert thing was also incredible! I forgot what it's called but it's pictured below. Mocha something something. Get it!

Great fresh cut hand rolled sushi by artist of the craft. They’ve been open for years stay busy on weekends. I suggest making reservations for earlier times to avoid crowds and wait times ( it’s hand rolled) it takes time. The entrees and Robata are great alternatives if sushi is busy. Try the Robata if sushi is backed up. You won’t be disappointed. Everyone comes for sushi. If you’re in a hurry on the weekend order off the entrees and robata. Drink Sake and cocktails too. 4:00-6:00 is a great time to avoid waiting on long sushi ticket times.
Vegetarian options: The egg plant and tempura vegetable roll are awesome! You can get the roll not fried and it’s still fresh and delicious.
Dietary restrictions: The menu is extremely flexible just talk to the staff they can accommodate most needs.

This review comes after my third visit. Lol, I forgot to post. You may have guessed, YES, I love this place. Kemuri was recommended by someone who also loves them. My first visit was a party of 3 on 3/20. Our collective order was a tuna, Louisiana roll, cucumber salad, bowl (name unknown), and another roll (name unknown). On 5/18, my friend and I stopped by. We sat outside and then moved to the bar because there were too many flies! We ordered 2 tequila martinis each! ? We always share, so we ordered crazy monkey roll, lobster roll and dragon roll, and a side of fried rice. We both said the crazy monkey roll was our least favorite. My third visit was my bday and a party of 4. We are sharing friends, so we had the Louisiana, lobster, and dragon rolls. Robata was corn on the cob, baby back ribs, and shrimp. Not pictured OMG roll and drunken noodles. Basically, what I'm saying is GO!!! 10/10 recommend

Kemuri has been a staple in our life for several years now. I think this is the first time I’ve ever been there for lunch and it was quick service, great food and cozy atmosphere.
Parking: Parking can be a little bit difficult at this location. There’s a parking lot across the street but if you have a bigger vehicle, it can be a little cumbersome to get in and out while they’re busy. The West location is a lotmore parking friendly.

Service was terrible. Waited more than an hour for our food to arrive. Then when it did, received a lecture about why it did, rather than an apology. Food was ok.

Nicholas was my server and he was super knowledgeable, very personable, and made the dining experience wonderful. The manager was super attentive as well. I will definitely return!
Beautiful restaurant with excellent food and drinks.
My favorite dish was the grilled duck tenderloins. They come as a very small serving but are absolutely delicious. Also very much enjoyed the drinks.
Dietary restrictions: As someone with a shellfish allergy I'm generally very apprehensive about sushi places and try to get fried rice or something grilled if I go at all which feels like it defeats the purpose of going to a sushi restaurant. Kemuris staff was very nice and helped point me towards a roll that was easy for them to prepare in a way that was safe for me. I got a tuna roll that came with an amazing sauce. I can and usually do tolerate alittle allergic reaction from cross contimation with shellfish when I get sushi but Kemuris had none at all.

Great small eclectic art gallery. Fun place overstuffed with a wide variety of interesting one of a kind items from local artists and craftsmen. Jewelry, paintings, decorator items, etc at prices that won't give you an ulcer. Take your time looking or you may miss a small treasure. I couldn't resist adding to my collection this trip.

Can't comment on recent service, nor atmosphere, however can do for multiple take out orders on various dates. Best sushi in town! Hands down. We order a minimum of 4 assorted rolls and they are always tasty, fresh, and filling. Keep it up Kemuri!!
