Sushi Kisen

Welcome to Arcadia's first Edomae Style sushi restaurant. Using traditional Japanese techniques and the finest quality ingredients, we bring out the hidden flavors of each dish and create a unique dining experience for our customers.

While most high-end sushi restaurants only serve Omakase, Old School Edomae Style restaurants serve both Omakase (chef’s choice) and Okonomi (my choice). At Sushi Kisen, there are no pre-fixed courses. We customize your dining experience with recommendations from our chefs or you can select from our extensive sushi selections and daily specials. We usually carry 30 to 40 selections of fish and most of them are delivered directly from our partners in Toyosu Market in Tokyo twice a week. Our experienced Japanese chefs serve the classic “seaweed outside” rolls, with the highest quality seaweed and ingredients such as premium rice and red vinegars, so you can taste the difference in this traditional Japanese style sushi.
