Impeccable staff and attention to details are everywhere! Love it!"

Sushi Kiyono, 255 S. Beverly Dr., Beverly Hills

From our readers:

"Sushi Kiyono is the best where East meets West! The menu combines fresh sushi along with his tried and true classic hot/cold Japanese dishes. The food is always consistent which is a big deal for my palate and stomach. Our family goes there to eat our favorites - mixed green salad, salmon collar with ponzu, soft shell crab tempura, agedashi tofu, crispy rice with tuna, black cod ... and the excellent sushi! The atmosphere is mellow - no loud music. Just the sound of people enjoying a Japanese meal!"

"They are accommodating and helpful. They offer a broad range of services. They carry an amazing inventory...there's almost nothing that you can't find there...This is one of the few remaining family-owned small business in Beverly Hills that makes it feel like a real neighborhood community. They have a long history here and I hope an even longer future."
