"The food was okay. For $31 I would have liked more than 6 shrimp with my fajitas. The tortillas were super chewy . My daughter had the chicken tinga enchilada and it was okay. More like a $15 meal vs $25. Nothing over the top. What was over the top was the Classico Guacamole which was amazing. And the service and staff were fantastic. I needed a plate for my fajitas and was looking around for my server, and another server asked if he could help. Excellent staff and all super friendly."

"I used to come here often but they are too expensive now. Came here on 5/25 for table service and ordered a beef noodle soup. The waitress was an Indian lady instead of the normal Asian lady owner. The Indian lady printed me a receipt with a surprise mandatory 20% !!! tip on it. The tip was not optional. Normally, I will give about 15% tip with cash and 18% tip with credit card but maybe more depending on how I feel. I paid cash thinking I would get a discount but she said it was same price credit and cash. 20% tip is outrageous. Why would I pay cash if there is no discount? There is no benefit. With a credit card, I get the convenience of not needing to carry cash and I get points. In total, $18.18 for a single beef noodle soup all in including the mandatory 20% tip. Probably won't eat table service here again. They should have been upfront about the mandatory 20% tip. I think they are legally supposed to tell customers if they charge a mandatory tip. If there are hidden fees in the takeout, then I would rather just get takeout from a regular cash only Chinese takeout place. Didn't feel like arguing because the owner wasn't there.The quality of the food here is better than a regular Chinese takeout place. It has a more authentic taste and menu."

"awesome! I have organized a party at the weekend in one of the party rooms. from the time I left the payment until the time of the party, the personal was wonderful. always available and accommodating. I was allowed to come early in the day of the event to decorate and the staff even helped. the food, the drinks and the waiters were amazing. we couldn't fit all balloons in the car, so they kept the balloons graciously and we picked them up the next day. I love this place. I hope that I will host other events and will definitely be regularly in the restaurant."

"I would give 0 stars! I’m never going back again. They’re rude and the food is subpar. The sushi’s barely has any meat in it. I got off work and was looking for anything open that isn’t fast food. I called at 9:30 sitting in my car because they close at 10. “Come now we are closing soon” I drove off as soon as they hung up and I was back in my car with the food at 9:40. I ordered 4 sushi rolls for me and my boyfriend. The guy at the counter when I paid said “you came late” even though I got there in 10 minutes which is how long it should take to make 4 sushi rolls. They always love to make snarky comments to customers and smile in your face as if they said something nice or even okay. I don’t need the comments to make me in off table just take my money and shut up. But no. They had to take my almost $50 and whine that they had to close 20 minutes early rather than 30 minutes early. Terrible business. I’ll make sure to tell everyone I know that I don’t recommend this spot. Especially since they have new ownership. Don’t come here unless you want trash sushi that falls apart and trash service"

"We had an amazing experience at Kinha Sushi! I organized a holiday party for some clients, and everything was fantastic. The food was exceptional, and the atmosphere was lively, with large TVs showing mixed martial arts—such a blast! The service was outstanding; they catered to our every need. My clients were thrilled, and my expectations were greatly surpassed! Whether you're dining with a large group, a few friends, or just stopping by for some sushi on your own, you won't be disappointed. I definitely plan to return and will be hosting clients there again. Thank you to the owners, management, and staff of Kinha Sushi for such a wonderful experience!"
