36 Best Sushi Bars near Kirkwood

“The best all around staff in Kirkwood. Thank you for helping to make a wonderful birthday dinner for my daughter! Can’t wait to see you all again!“

“Incredible quality, probably one of the best in town. The rolls are smaller than most places so grab a roll to share as well. The space is small so order ahead and arrive on time. We showed up early and felt a bit awkward waiting on time bench staring at the counter. Dogtown as well so parking can be a bit tricky. However, for every difficulty this place is more than worth it!“

“If you're looking for top-notch sushi with the friendliest owners in St. Louis, look no further than Sushi Hana in Affton! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warmth by the owners, who run the place with incredible passion and energy. They truly make you feel like family, and their dedication shines through in every single detail. The sushi itself is always incredibly fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor—you can tell they put so much care into each piece, never cutting corners. Whether it's a classic roll or a special, everything is made with precision and artistry. It's a cozy, cute spot with a wonderful atmosphere, perfect for a date night or just a fantastic meal out. Don't let the unassuming exterior fool you; this is a true hidden gem and my go-to spot for amazing sushi and unbeatable service. Highly, highly recommend!“

“Okay, I do want to say that with all the 5 star reviews, I had high expectations. I don't think those were met. The crab rangoon was pretty good, the sushi was slightly above average. It filled my stomach and scratched an itch. The presentation was nice.

I just really wish the sushi had more flavor. More sauces, more combinations. I also wish it had come with Miso.

My final complaint is that the service was a little slow.

The pineapple at the end was cute!“

“The best omakase and the most beautiful restaurant!!“

“Wonderful food. Elegantly presented sashimi, sushi, takoyaki, gyoza, udon, don buri (bowls of food), and other Japanese options. Many many types of sushi rolls. In total, there is not only more than standard Japanese fare, but it is also delicious, high quality, and beautifully presented. Many different sakes, mixed drinks, and Japanese beers along with international Gin, bourbon, tequila, rum options. They even have Japanese soda pop. Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely decor with exquisite hand painted scenes. I had been there once before and couldn’t wait to go back for seconds to show my adult son who also, this day enjoyed his food immensely.“

“A year or so ago I found my self starving after running errands at the Brentwood promenade with my soon to be fiancé. Yummi Tummi was right on the way home, so we decided to go in. After that, Yummi Tummi became Sunday night fixture in our household. We have it almost every week and never get tired of it. I can’t imagine a cozy Sunday survivor night without yummi Tummi sushi“

“Love the food and matcha!“

“We love Sushi and Wasabi is our go to. We love Tuesdays when most of the rolls are $6 each. (But it is great every other night too) Give them a try!“

“food, staff, outdoor dining :)“

“Great fresh food! Reasonable“

“Loved the food, wished they would have given more than one crab raggoon! Will so definitely go back!“

“Stop what you’re doing right now, and give this place a try. I’m not even joking, this was the best sushi restaurant I have tried in quite some time. Let me give you the run down on our experience:

My Dad and I have been looking for a good sushi spot for quite some time now. Tokyo Sushi is about a 10 minute drive for both of us, so we decided to stop in for dinner last night. This is a lovely restaurant inside, very clean and lots of comfortable seating.

Our server was phenomenal. He was prompt, attentive, and very friendly. We got started with some Gyoza, and also split a Philly Roll. We also decided to add on some Chicken Fried Rice incase those 2 weren’t sufficient in filling us up. Everything was bursting with flavor and tasted extremely fresh.

The Gyoza were soft and flavorful and the Philly Roll was super light and fresh, but the best item by a long shot was the Chicken Fried Rice. It tasted like something a luxury hibachi restaurant would whip up. The chicken was nice and crispy and the rice was browned and salty like it should be.

We will be back SOON to try more delicious menu items. Can’t believe this place has been flying under our radar for so long!“

“AMAZING food and incredible service. Jeff, our server, was very friendly and welcoming. He took his time walking us through the menu and answering all of our questions. The sushi here is next level and unlike anything I’ve experienced anywhere else. My wife and I cannot stop talking about our experience here!“

“Eating here is a must if you visit St Louis. My boyfriend and I went two days in a row. The service was amazing, the sushi is very high quality, it comes out quickly, and the cheesecake tempura is divine. 10/10“

“This place is an absolute must. I had a deconstructed sushi roll in Atlanta in 2021 and have been searching for anything on par with it, and this place smashes that memory to pieces. I get the wonton nachos every time, and anytime someone comes to visit, I’m going to be taking them here to try it.“

“The sushi is delicious. I got the sushi and sashimi chef special. Unexpectedly, there is wasabi in the sushi. The rolls were great! Was definitely enough food for two people, and the piece is about $70 after tax. Not too bad. I always wanted to come since I’ve heard good things from family. Now that I have, I will come back, just maybe not anytime soon. But overall the quality of the fish is fresh and good. I would’ve liked a little bit more rice on the sushi but it was good!“

“Amazing noodles!! I will be coming back for food!!“

“Came here for lunch today. This place is right by my house and I had not tried it yet. Immediately, I noticed that the service was fantastic. My waiter was very friendly and went above and beyond to give good service. I got the lunch special, it was only $15 for three rolls and an appetizer. My food was great too. I will be back.“

“I had lunch here on a slow day. The crab Rangoon were tasty and well-filled. I also ordered the lunch special, which was miso soup and a choice of 2 rolls. It was $13-14. The fish tasted fresh. Based on my one experience, I rate the food delicious. I would add another star if I felt like I was at all welcomed. I felt rushed to order my food. Nobody seemed happy to be there. Maybe it was just a slow day and they were hoping for more business. I will return based upon the quality of the food.“

“Literally the best chicken fried rice I've ever had in my life. I would eat here every day if I could, but we're a drives out. Regardless, its absolutely worth eating here. Its better than going to a hibachi restaurant, and far cheaper, too. The only downside is that I don't have a bigger spoon to scope more rice into my mouth at once.“

“Absolutely love this place. Healthy food that actually tastes good.“

“Absolutely love this place!“

“From out of state while my mother was in the hospital, I ordered online and went to pick up my order. I mistakenly placed the order at the wrong location. Rebecca, the manager, was so helpful and understanding. She was very professional, as was Ana, the hostess. I will be back. Thank you.“

“I highly recommend Koibito Poke STL. The food is fresh and amazing. Great variety to serve all customers.“

“We’re from out of town and wanted something to eat late night after a 3 hour road trip. Sushi Station hit the spot! It was all delicious!!“

“Shoutout to my friends for taking me to fancy places. I’m not a member of the cigar bar in the Ritz Carlton in St. Louis, but I have a friend who is and wow, what a vibe. If you get the chance to check it out, absolutely do. The shrimp cocktail and octopus? Fantastic. And yes, we got the flatbread too — a little guilty pleasure moment. Just don’t show up in fur unless you want to go to the dry cleaners a few rounds.“

“First time here and the service, food, cleanliness, pricing, location were all excellent! Celebrated a grandson's b'day and it was perfect! I love that they give you an option for spiciness (0-5) since I'm a 0 and opted for Orange Chicken. I'll be more adventuresome next time. LOL Great restaurant all the way around!“

“One of the most delightful places to eat. I've been eating there for 15 years and never had 1 bad experience. The care taken in hospitality cleanliness flavor ingredients and service are like a classic, rarity? I always order #48 with yellow curry. anymore.“

“Oh man this was so good. Better than the other local all you can eat that has multiple locations around the area. I had some hibachi and sushi as well as miso soup. They may not have as many varieties of sushi rolls as the other place, but each roll is much tastier. A miso soup was also extremely good, not watery or sweet and weird. The cost is excellent under$20 lunch in 2025. There were probably 20 or so tables. The server was attentive. I hope to go back as soon as possible.“

“Great service and great food“

“Eating here is a must if you visit St Louis. My boyfriend and I went two days in a row. The service was amazing, the sushi is very high quality, it comes out quickly, and the cheesecake tempura is divine. 10/10“

“Went to the Ritz last night for their New Years Celebration. My shoe strap broke when walking in and I didn’t know what to do. But the staff there saved the day. I’ve never experienced such amazing hospitality. They saw me struggling and came to my rescue. Shoutout to Kenna for helping me. She not only offered a solution, but she sat on the floor and took 10 minutes to fix my shoe herself. All of the staff are so amazing and kind. My shoe stayed on all night and I was able to fully enjoy their amazing party. Thank you guys again ❤️“

“Try the Ocean Pyramid it’s amazing!“
