A bit heavy on sauce/ seasoning with A5 wayu dinner plate. The nigiri premium is pretty good. Good place for casual dining.The decor in house is absolutely charming. However, one thing I'd like to mention is that I love the artwork carving out "Kyosho" on the wall with the light shining through it. However, I would recommend considering laser cutting for a cleaner finish, it is hard to unsee those rough edges when paying close attention to decor details.

Got the omakase nigiri they were out of premium on a Sunday at 7pm. Ordered Otoro separately because not included in omakase, it was by far the best. Fish was good and fresh but rating a star down because the rice is not right, it’s too hard. This is a common theme in other reviews as well. They should really try to figure out the rice and make it better in order to be excellent vs just good. Price is pretty good but I am comparing to Sugarfish in LA where the rice is perfect bad piece is excellent for quality

This place is not cheap, but if you want speciality sushi with high quality and unique cuts you can't find much elsewhere in the area, this is the place to go. I'd just go with the base omakase (they didn't have the special omakase when I went) as it alone is very unique and like what you could get in Japan.

We visited this place a few times this year. My daughter seems to like their sushi. It's not too spicy for her. They do have spicy options clearly marked on the menu.
A small little high class Sushi place. You feel like I'm Tokyo in a Sushi bar. The quality is great and the lady in the service is very friendly and gave us the right direction to order the best things for us. We will be back for sure. Even the price is really good. We paid $95 for 2 rolls, 1 salmon dish, 2 miso soups, edamame and tea for both of us.

Clay Pot Unagi Donburi was so delicious, I also really enjoyed the seaweed (Wakame) salad and the seared scallop (Hokkaido Hotate) appetizer. Not cheap ($$ to $$$) but you get what you pay for: great authentic food, friendly service and a nice (albeit dark) decor.

This is a unique place and a great place to get fresh, high-quality sushi. The bluefin tuna (otoro) sushi, salmon belly, and crab rolls were particularly good. The atmosphere is casual and relaxed, and the service is friendly and attentive. I highly recommend Kyosho for a delicious and enjoyable sushi experience.
This is probably the best Japanese restaurant in Menlo Park. Everything is authentic, classy and delicious. They have fresh specials everyday. The hotate is great! The service was good despite that they had one lady doing everything. She was bussing tables, taking orders, the cashier and the food runner; yet, she was patient and never showed any stress.We also recommend the omakase sushi. Highly recommend!
