Sushi Kitto — Restaurant in Indio

Was so excited to come here. Service is great. The waiter, server, host, everyone was pleasant and attentive. The atmosphere was nice. Clean. Had college football/basketball playing. Good music.

But the food is a different story. I had the dinner special with chicken teriyaki. The chicken had no flavor and was spongy. Not sure how they cook it. There wasn’t much teriyaki sauce on the chicken. The salad wasn’t good, the leaves were very bitter. I didn’t care for the miso soup but I didn’t hate it. Just too much seaweed for me. The person I went with said their salmon had no flavor with exception of the teriyaki sauce which wasn’t much. Tempura was… kind of soggy. Like when you try to reheat left overs in the microwave the next day. There was no crisp to it. I also heard a woman who was sitting at the bar also complain about the tempura as well. The salmon nigiri was good though, can’t complain about that.

I don’t know how the sushi rolls are but just the experience I had was more than enough to tell me not to go back. Also the price for the food we were served was NOT worth it. There are Cheaper sushi options the valley that have...

If you love sushi so fresh it practically slaps you in the face with its ocean breeze, then this place is your new home. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted by the kind of hospitality that makes you feel like you're on a first-name basis with the entire sushi bar. The fish? So fresh, it might still be swimming—no, seriously. One roll came with a little fish flag saying, "I was just in the ocean!"

The sushi is like a love letter to your taste buds, each bite making you wish you had more stomachs. The wasabi has a sneaky way of creeping up on you like that one friend who says "try this!" and then watches in horror as you realize you're not prepared for the spice.

If you haven't been yet, just know that after one visit, you’ll be calling it your "go-to" spot, whether you're craving an extravagant dinner or just trying to impress your date by pretending you know how to use chopsticks properly. Highly recommend this sushi haven unless you don't like good food—and who doesn't...

Service was good, food on the other hand was 50/50. I also found it odd that they weren’t running the AC on a warm Saturday afternoon. The chicken teriyaki was dry and overcooked. The teriyaki sauce needs work as well. I liked that the miso soup wasn’t as salty as other places. I always order a chirashi bowl when I try a sushi place for the first time. It includes a variety of a restaurant’s raw offerings in one dish. I was impressed with quantity included but disappointed in the quality. The tamago was bland, the ikura and squid didn’t taste fresh at all. FYI, their chirashi bowl does include sushi rice at the bottom. I didn’t know or notice before ordering some (additional $5). Not sure if what I was served was their normal quality, but I wouldn’t rule them out after just one visit. They have tons seating, inside and outside including at the sushi bar. Lots of TVs all around to enjoy your favorite sporting events and a bar with a decent list of...
