The community of Naples Island and the surrounding area of Long Beach is one of the biggest reasons why Kihon has been around for over a decade, even surviving the pandemic and ensuing shut-downs. Without you, this special restaurant would not feel like home. Thank you so much for all your continued support. We aim to implement many great things this year, so stay tuned. ❤️

Sitting at the sushi bar can be a unique experience, as you can let the chef decide on the coursing of your dinner. This is called "Omakase". You'll likely be pleasantly surprised to try something so exquisite that you never anticipated!
