Amazing Happy Hour Deal!!! We were on the hunt for a happy hour around 5pm on Friday when we stumbled upon Kiki. You can get a 20oz Sapporo and a sake caraf for 8 dollars! What an amazing deal! We also tried their fried California roll, crispy tofu and miso soup. Everything was grate and extremely well priced! We will 100% be back!

I had a wonderful experience at Kiki's. We ordered some hot tea, miso soup, and an assortment of sashimi and some mackerel. The fish was excellent and it was a great price point. They also don't skimp on the size of the fish they give you. This will be my new go-to place.

Appreciated being warmly welcomed and seated at a table of our choice due to our wheelchair needs. The entrance door was a little heavy to hold open and navigate the chair in, solo, but otherwise the place is accessible. The high ceiling with skylights and the Ghibli decor make the place bright, spacious and fun. The service was fast and friendly, and I was especially pleased by the thoughtfulness of our server to bring an extra bowl and plate without my asking, guessing that we were sharing a couple of dishes. We enjoyed the chicken udon and firecracker roll, and -- from peering at the colorful spread on a neighbor's table -- plan to get a bento box next time. A pleasant lunch spot.

The sashimi combo is the best! Generous cuts of fish with delicious salad dressing and well prepared rice. It was a great price and the tea and miso were delicious. The service was fast and I love the decorations and the signature crooked window. Such a fun atmosphere!

TLDR: Came here for lunch specials as a reward after a long doc appt up the hill at UCSF Parnassus. They've got your usual sushi rolls with a flare of standard SF creativity (ie 49er roll, etc), and are especially good lunch options/deal if you're into variety provided by bento boxes. Short and sweet, yet slightly longer: I would call this a neighborhood, family oriented sushi joint with a side of anime. We walked in and easily grabbed a table for two midday and while I can imagine it gets busy at peak dinner time, I can also imagine table turn over is fairly rapid as it's a big open room with many tables. There were many to-go orders that were picked up during our ~1hr meal, so I also imagine a lot of their business is due to the apps/people not wanting to leave nearby homes. Miso was salty and loaded with kelp+tofu, fish was fresh, and they had plenty of fried and sauced rolls which as the type my boyfriend loves the most. I won't turn down a proposal to return to Kiki, and at the same time - I will not go out of my way to get to Inner Sunset for Kiki.

Came here on a Thursday night and it was not crowded at all. The decor includes stills from Studio Ghibli films which I thought was cute. The waitstaff were all kind and prompt. I got the Tempura Udon. I thought the udon noodles were very nice and had a good chew to them. The broth was pretty standard. The tempura were nicely fried, however after eating a few pieces, I felt that there was a lot of oil from then and could not finish them all. It may have been because of the sheer quantity of tempura they included with my order though. Overall, a decent Japanese restaurant.

My boyfriend and I recently visited this restaurant during happy hour, and we were pleasantly surprised by the value for money. We shared several dishes including the fried tofu, fried oysters, fried California roll, soft shell crab, and takoyaki. For drinks, we ordered a large sake and beer. The service was attentive, making our experience even more enjoyable. While it may not be the highest quality sushi, it's definitely the best option if you're looking to get the most out of your budget.

6/10/23 I've been to Kiki's many times in my childhood and there have definitely been some changes like the outside of the building and some interior design changes. But what hasn't changed about Kiki's is the consistent and solid food you will get. My sister and I had gone to the Academy of Science in Golden Gate Park for the day. Parking in the Inner Sunset is ALWAYS a headache... long story short, I parked about 1 mile away in the residential area so I wouldn't have to pay for parking for the entire time we were out.. We decided to go to Kiki's because it's reminiscent of the times we came here when we were younger and we love looking at the artwork of the different Hayao Miyazaki films. When we got there, it was not busy at all, and probably because it was around 4PM, so like an early dinner. Here's what we got: 1. Takoyaki (to share) 2. 2 item combo box: chicken katsu and California roll (Emily) 3. 2 item combo box: grilled salmon and spicy tuna roll (mine) All of the food came out in about 10 minutes. The takoyaki had a nice soft crunch on the outside with hot octopus filling on the inside. They give you a decent amount of food in the bento boxes. I ended up finishing all of my food, but Emily had to take some of the katsu home. The salmon wasn't too salty and they put the right amount of teriyaki sauce. I thought the katsu was cooked well and not dry at all. Kiki's is a great spot in the Inner Sunset if you're looking for inexpensive but solid Japanese food.
