NUMBER ONE: Heated Toilet Seats NUMBER TWO: $3 House Salad NUMBER THREE: Beef Curry Noodles I've been loyal and loving Hiko-A-Mon for the past 8 years. The service is top notch and it's always the perfect amount of crowded. Whether you're coming for sushi, noodles or something else you're going to find exactly what you're looking for here. We just keep coming back and it's for good reason. I love Hiko-A-Mon. read more

It's been a few years since I've eaten at hiko-A-Mon but now I can't wait to go back! I'm a big fan of miso cod and I haven't found a great place for it that doesn't break the bank and that makes me full until tonight!! Oh my goodness, the miso cod I would put up against any other place. It's so good, such a great portion with vegetables and fried rice for $24.00. If you know anything about miso cod trend you'd know that for most other places $24 would get you 3 bites of cod with a little lettuce. If you're looking for some miso cod for a killer deal go here! read more

For the area and region is good value for the buck, sashimi salmon had more tendons than I've had but again, it's still relatively tasty. Servers are attentive and place is dim lit with some notes of modern decor. I enjoyed comparing it to Midwest sushi restaurants. read more

I recently tried hiko-A-mon with a large group. They have this really great side room that they set us in. It was quiet and we were easily able to speak across the table. The service was attentive and the menu was expansive. A lot of different options of Japanese favorites along with some new dishes I'd never heard of. Everyone really enjoyed their food. I love the fact that they take reservations. That takes the pressure off of planning a dinner. I'd definitely go back next time I'm in the mood for Japanese food. read more

Favorite Sushi place coming from a sushi snob who has traveled to Japan. Hiko's has the best nigiri. The tuna toro and fatty salmon are my favorite but sometimes the specials blow my mind. I've ordered several things off the menu so I'll go through some quickly below: - Miso soup and ginger salad are top notch for a great price. - Miso cod is delicious. - Una-don is fantastic. The service is great. Everyone is kind and attentive. Food comes out quickly too. The owner himself works the sushi bar. It is a casual-nice place. Some people come in jeans and some were slacks and a button down. read more

We love Hiko-a-Mon! It is definitely our go-to for sushi, but I've never had a bad meal or experience. The service is always good and it's a nice place for date-night. read more

I used to LOVE hiko until a horrible experience today. The Kentucky Role is advertised as Crab, Tuna, Salmon. The roll is stuffed 99% full of imitation crab/mayo, with a sliver of Tuna and Salmon surrounding. Absolutely disgusting. Chicken Teriyaki Hibachi, pretty tough to go wrong with, right? - WRONG. Chicken was dry, flavorless, rice was decent. Server was not friendly or accommodating. Hiko used to be the hill I would die on for Sushi/Japanese. After my experience today, I'd recommend fancy feast rolled in grass before Hiko. read more

Well... I was just told that what I wanted to order for my daughter and I was too expensive and I repeatedly told the lady I can afford what I want to order and she insisted I order other stuff instead. For a first visit this is heartbreaking. I had a whole list of stuff picked for us to try. I don't care what the cost is. I came knowing I was about to blow over $250. So... this feeling sucks ass and is not cool. I just can't... I'm not sure why anyone would think it's cool to do this to anyone. It was so humiliating with all these people staring. *which lead us out the door and to Osteria Italian Seafood across the plaza. Well worth it, epic service food and most of all the compassion shown to us even though I walked in the place crying my eyes out and hangry. We had an excellent time. So thank you for making me cry so I could Hiko-my-ass to some place else. read more

OMG! What a lovely surprise to find this wonderful place. Located in a small mall hidden from the street by full grown trees, I almost missed the area due to the restaurant being in the mall's inner sanctum. It's near the Jade Palace which is my next stop tomorrrow.... When I arrived, it was full of people but the sushi bar was very empty. There were many seats and very roomy. You don't feel like you're packed in like a lot of other places. Service was efficient and quick. The food is excellent! I found my favorite, Age dashi tofu, served in a different way. Almost like a stew! Delicious! The chef's sashimi was wonderful as well with big pieces. There is also a full bar but I didn't partake. Maybe next time. read more

Being a long time customer of Hiko-A-Mon this is hopefully a one time thing. A take out order for Udon Tempura was given to me without the Udon. When asked about it the server said it was all there. After getting back home and confirming the Udon was missing I called the restaurant and a manager said I could come back and get it, or the would give me a credit tied to my phone number. read more

Miso soup was amazing however everything else including the service was terrible. The teriyaki chicken looked like a boiled chicken breast with a drizzle of teriyaki. So dry we couldn't eat it even after ordering an extra side of teriyaki and we have had better sushi from the grocery store. We had not been to this restaurant in several years and it was amazing in the past. Our bill was 168.00 for 2 dinners and a few sushi rolls. Very disappointing. read more

We had a great experience here! We had a larger group and we got to sit off to the side in a sunken table, which I've always ogled at every time I'm at a Japanese restaurant. This place was highly recommended by a friend and it did not disappoint. I started with the typical Japanese restaurant salad with that addictive ginger dressing. Seriously I could drink that out of a straw. It took me a really really long time and long look at the menu to decide on my entree. I landed on the tonkatsu. It was good, not life changing, but still good! The sauce it came with was pretty tasty as well. I've heard the sushi here is delicious, so when I have some more disposable income freed up I can't wait to work my way through the sushi menu! Overall, really good experience. I would definitely recommend this place, especially for a larger group. They took really good care of us and saw to it that our experience was great. read more

I love this place. It has been a solid 5 star restaurant since it came to Lyndon 16 years ago. The tuna tataki has always been a favorite of mine. The crunch munch and westport roll are also fantastic. Honestly, the tuna tataki I just inhaled was so good, I proposed to the Sushi chef. read more

I have been here many times - I always leave full and satisfied! Our server was quick and well organized despite our larger party.

This was my first visit to hiko-a-mon & I had such a lovely time! A friend of mine highly recommended this spot & made reservations for the whole group. Since we were a larger group they sat us in a semi-private area with a large table. I had the miso soup which is always a great place to start. I tried scallops for the first time & found out I love scallops! I also tried the Las Vegas roll & it was incredible too! Parking was a breeze. Our waitress was very nice. I definitely will be back! read more

I somehow lived in the Louisville area for the better part of a decade without making it out here, only getting around to visiting during a recent return trip to the city. I really enjoyed my broiled yellowfin dinner (served with steamed veg, side salad, potato croquette, rice, and a choice of sauce, all for under $25). Service was very professional, and the ambiance of the restaurant struck a nice balance between being stylish and casual. While better late than never, it's unfortunate I didn't have this restaurant on my radar when I was a resident. read more

Fantastic quality, modern Japanese food in a very good atmosphere. We had a group of 10 people and had our own room. Service was superb! read more

Hiko-a-mon is a decent place to go for Japanese food. I got the Las Vegas roll and zaru soba. The Las Vegas roll was very good. I don't like raw fish so I usually order deep fried rolls and the Las Vegas roll was a great one. The zaru soba was decent. The dipping sauce was salty and the portion a little small for my taste, but otherwise very solid. The environment is stellar. It's got a cozy and dim ambience, and there's even a section where you can sit in the ground around a low table. It's a nice place that's well put together with a very friendly and responsive staff. I was in a group but had to leave early and our server attended to that need perfectly, bringing out my food and check earlier. All in all, Hiko-a-mon is a great environment with a good option for Japanese food, but maybe not your best bet if you like bigger portions and less salty food. read more

Sushi enthusiasts, you no longer have to search for the best sushi spot in town, hiko-A-mon is by far the best in my opinion. Offering a wide variety of foods you can order, from rice and noodles to raw and cooked fish. If you love sashimi or nigiri order a platter, they come out beautiful and reasonably priced! Everything that I have tried is amazing so you can't go wrong with anything you order. The service is great, very patient if you don't exactly know what you want. I would recommend getting the Red Snapper Carpaccio as an appetizer and the sashimi or nigiri special. Love this place! Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for Japanese cuisine. read more

Pan seared duck was the best duck I've ever had. Bento box was delicious and different with other places. Red snapper for appetizer had a tasty zesty sauce that it made it so unique. We also ordered 2 sushi rolls, they were ok. They had good selection of sushi rolls. Our server was so much knowledgeable, very polite, nice, and helpful. Atmosphere was good, they had a cool fish tank! Walls were interesting. Our favourite was fish tank. read more

Always a pleasure to have dinner here it's authentic and varied as they have many things that Sapporo would not have and it's much more quiet and enjoyable with small groups and family.

I hate to write this, but had to note to myself to not to come here again... chicken karaage was just chicken nuggets, the whole calamari was burnt, and soba was terribly salty I had to pour water in it to tone it down. We were told the chef was from japan so we were excited to try out the food but it was a huge disappointment. The interior looks nice and great for simple dates, but food... not so great. read more

My kids love this place. I am gluten free so it can be challenging. 4 out of 5 visits our server was Mrs. Salt, she is extremely knowledgeable and caring. The last time I went I didn't feel like our server was knowledgeable. (ie: imitation crab is made w/wheat... she tried to tell me it was gluten free) Otherwise, kind prompt service. Food taste fresh and flavorful. read more

Friend was sick so we came for the udon! Was not disappointed but i was still hungry, that said i also came super hungry and generally eat a lot haha. The nabe udon definitely hit the spot and that broth was good. Came out hot, with a softt boiled egg, shrimp tempura on the side no complaints. Hit the soul Server was nice was it was pretty empty at like 9pm, so nice and quiet. Could be a cute date spot or to chill with a group of friends. Will have to try some of their other dishes or sushi too. read more

I've been here several times over the years... it's a great little spot for (close to home) sushi. This visit was a Wed night and we got there about 630 and was immediately seated. Very soon afterwards, they were starting to get busier and the tables were full. This visit, I had the ginger salad, fried rice (always a must), and the Crunch Bourbon roll. My go-to roll at most places is the Crunch Munch but my friend was getting that so I wanted to try something new. The Crunch Bourbon was wonderful! And the rice was spot on... some of the best fried rice I've gotten at sushi restaurants. Service was quick and friendly. read more

My son came up for Labour day, so being from a state that is an ABC (Alcohol Beverage Control) State and it is just as the name states.. The government controls what you get to buy... any way... He wanted to go bourbon shopping, so after he selected multiple bourbons from the store next door (I picked a couple of new finds myself) We decided Sushi was going to be our meal of choice. I had never been to Hiko_A-Mon before, but since we were right there, I figured why not. I have come not expect much from Sushi restaurants here... More often than not I am disappointed, but Hiko-A-Mon did not disappoint. We were seated quickly and started to peruse the Sushi Menu... We decided to start out with a seaweed salad and Sake. We ordered multiple rolls, from Spicy Tuna to Rainbow... I added an order of Scallops... Every thing was very good. The Sake was so good, we ordered another round. We could have eaten more, but the restaurant had filled up and there was a long line waiting to be seated... So out of concern for our waste lines and for our fellow patrons, we called it a night. All in all a great experience. Unfortunately Hiko-A-Mon is a little far from the house, but will be going back again and again. read more

Went to Hiko-a-Mon with the family for sushi. To be perfectly honest, they are the sushi fans...but lucky for me, there is a variety of non-sushi food selections available. My brother-in-law ordered shrimp fried rice which I sampled and it was delish! I ordered an order of tempura vegetables and tempura chicken as I assumed it would become more of a shareable - it was. To be honest, I thought the tempura vegetables were divine. Flavorful, good texture, not soggy, very good. read more

Service was slow. I ordered salmon sashimi and red snapper carpaccio. It was slow to come out. And when I was done with my meal, server was still no where. He didn't come to check on me at all. Only saw him when ordering and when he brought the food. Salmon sashimi was a good portion for the price and tasted good. The carpaccio was too tart. It tasted like it has more lemon juice than yuzu juice. I would like to come back again to try other dishes, but I'm afraid the service will not be good again. As I'm writing this review, server has not come by for over 10 minutes since dropping off my food. I had to finally flag down the hostess and she got the server. He came back and said he was busy. read more

Quick Take: Louisville's only Japanese owned Japanese restaurant. Very fresh sushi, they do take reservations and are quite small. Make a date night in Westport Village. Lots of "Americanized" sushi though. Details: Even though I live within a 10 min walk, I've only been here a handful of times and it does not disappoint. Lots of fun to be had in Westport Village especially if there is a concert or event (tastings at Westport Whiskey and Wine etc.). They always ask if you "have a reservation" although its usually no problem sitting at the sushi bar (my preferred spot) but a little tougher during Covid times. Highly recommend the daily sushi special rolls but you will have to get up and memorize the small white board by the bar. Overall the sushi is fresh and flavorful, but a little lacking on variety (you won't find Urchin or Fish roe on the menu). Ginger salad is always on point and they even give you an extra side of dressing. They also have bento boxes and even a surf and turf for the meat lovers out there. One of the best sushi places in the area (DKD is my personal fav). read more

Sushi is one of my favorite foods and hiko-A-mon is a good choice when you are in the Westport area. My friend and I were craving sushi and we checked the handy dandy Yelp app and saw this was the first spot so we hopped in the car and left. The inside is very nice, a good spot for date night. There's plenty of space so you're not siting right next to other tables. Also it has a cozy feel to it. The service was also great. Our waitress was very attentive and made sure the glasses were full. The sushi is a little expensive so I went with a California roll. Even though the California roll is the most basic rolls to get, it was still really good. Hiko-A-Mon is a great addition to Westport Village and it did not disappoint. I'll gladly be back if I'm in the area. read more

hiko-A-mon is a great place to go if you like an upscale feel with a cheaper budget. Not only is the restaurant very nice and calm on the inside, but their sushi is fantastic. They have all kinds of traditional Japanese dishes to choose from, and their sushi list is outstanding. I went with the Las Vegas roll which included salmon, cream cheese, avocado and as deep fried... it was fantastic! Although I did not have anything to drink, their wine and cocktail list looked like it has a lot to offer, and quite the variety. Service was quick and friendly to add to it! If you're looking for some good sushi in St. Matthews/Lyndon, hik-A-mon is the place to go. read more

First time coming here and I was surprised how great the inside was. The workers were very nice and friendly from beginning to end. When walking in, my friend and I noticed how busy this place was with to-go orders. There were a few people who were ready to pick up their food, but they prioritize seating us down first. That was a plus! After seating down we were taken care of right away with water, utensils, and napkins. Their menu was a bit overwhelming with it's own style. I'm usually a guy who's willing to try something new, but I really wanted a bento. They only had one option and it was something different so I went for it. The Miso here is served so cute ahah, and it tasted so authentic. I wanted so much more. When I received my bento, I was so surprised by it's presentation. It was literally in a two story box. opened it and was happy with what I saw. Yes it didn't look like A LOT of food, but it's the quality and taste is what I was going for. Ate everything slowly to enjoy and at the end I was very pleased with my visit. DEF recommend this place to anyone in Louisville. read more

Hands down the most magnificent authentic Japanese meal anywhere in Louisville, KY. Since it is a fish market, everything is fresh and tastes amazing. The grilled yellowfin tuna collar is beyond compare. I also recommend the seafood salad and/or the squid salad depending on your particular taste. The sushi rolls are delectable, the nigiri and sashimi magnificent, and the sake selection is fantastic (try the Fuji apple infused). Do yourself a favor and try Hilo-A-Mon. You will not be disappointed. A MUST stop for amazing fresh seafood lovers and foodies alike. read more
