" I've been to Kaito Sushi a couple of times and it feels more and more like a cozy neighborhood spot that you wouldn't want to miss. They have an extensive menu filled with classic sushi options that are consistently impressive. Each time, the fish is fresh and the rolls are artfully made. I suggest calling ahead on weekends as they can get quite busy, which is a testament to their popularity. The staff is friendly and efficient, making the whole dining experience a pleasure. " (*Curated Review*)

" My wife and I are sushi lovers, and we’ve been on the lookout for great sushi in the area. Kaito Sushi did not disappoint! We were seated at the sushi bar and enjoyed the chef’s omakase, which was brilliant. Each piece of sushi was so fresh, and the chef made us feel like VIPs. I haven't tasted sushi this good since my last visit to Japan! Make sure to put this one on your list—you won't regret it! " (*Curated Review*)

" If I could give this place a million stars, I would! The freshest sushi I've ever had—I was so impressed! The staff treated us like family. We ordered a variety of rolls and had the chef's special, and every piece was crafted with care. Perfectly seasoned rice and the fish was melt-in-your-mouth quality. It was absolutely delicious! It may be a little pricier than some places, but trust me, it's worth every penny. Can't wait to return! " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I had an exquisite dinner at Kaito Sushi recently! The atmosphere is so inviting and warm. The service was perfect; we felt taken care of the whole time. We shared a variety of rolls and were surprised by the freshness of each piece. The prices are reasonable considering the high quality of the ingredients being used. I would highly recommend this place to anyone in a sushi mood. I can't wait to come back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Kaito Sushi's reputation for fresh, authentic sushi is well-deserved. My girlfriend and I had a lovely date night here; we shared a variety of rolls and were impressed by the quality. However, we felt that while the fish was fantastic, the rolls were slightly overdone with sauces, distracting from the fish's natural flavor. Service was attentive, but we noticed a few delays in our order, especially on a busy Friday evening. I'd still recommend it for its genuine atmosphere and quality fish, but perhaps stick to nigiri if you're after simplicity. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a fantastic find! Kaito Sushi has the most generous portions I’ve experienced in a sushi restaurant. We were greeted promptly and seated quickly despite being a busy night. I loved their selection of sushi and sashimi—everything was quite fresh. My recommendation is to go for the chef's special, and you won't be disappointed. It's a cozy place where you can feel the urge of returning. 10/10! " (*Curated Review*)

" As an aficionado of sushi and Japanese cuisine, I was on the hunt for a place that captures the true essence of my experiences in Japan, and Kaito Sushi did just that. Their fish is flown in fresh and you can absolutely taste the difference. I spent quite a bit during my visit, but it was worth it! Sashimi was decadently rich, particularly the bluefin tuna. The staff was attentive without being overbearing, and the setting was quaint yet elegant. Mark my words, this is a must-visit if you’re in the area! " (*Curated Review*)
