This place sits in a strip mall area so plenty of parking and access is easy. We were traveling with the youth hockey team and we didn't have a reservation. They seated our large party quickly on a Friday night. The restaurant was busy though so it seemed we may have just got lucky with an open table. We got a large assortment of sushi, nigiri and chinese food. Service was quick and attentive and food presentation was unique. The sushi and nigiri was fresh and tasty. Our group enjoyed our time here and I'd recommend it to others. read more

I have been going to Kissho sushi for over 12 years and never once experienced such a low quality roll. I ordered a crab meat & cream cheese roll and this is what I got. There is barely any cream cheese and when I brought this up to management their server was very rude. If you are looking for a good crabmeat & cream cheese roll I highly advise Fujihana rather than this toddler's attempt at Kissho. read more

Kissho Sushi - Crab meat & "cream cheese" roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

Solid sushi in York, Pa. We were greeted and immediately seated... this could be an issue at times bc the restaurant doesn't have many tables! We tried an array of sushi, fried rice, and soup. Everything had good flavor and was fresh. I have never had snapper (which was in the rainbow roll) and didn't prefer it. Friends love the fried rice here... definitely on the lighter side, but tasty. For me, each roll had too much rice... rolls had a layer + on each. BYOB is always great! Service was very good. Great option for sushi in York. read more

We (2 people) came into a completely empty restaurant and sat for 15 minutes before being helped. the waitress came up to finally take our order and said the wait for food would be 30-45 minutes due to a volume of to-go orders. I informed her we'd already been sitting for 15 minutes and should be prioritized, so we left. read more

Stopped by Kissho with my family on our way to NY. The restaurant is in a small strip mall and wasn't hard to find. Note: restrooms are located outside the restaurant and down the hall, you'll need a code to access it. I ordered a bunch of sushi to share. The seaweed salad was small, but tasty. My son had a ginger salad which he normally loves at Japanese restaurants but he said the dressing was just ok and there wasn't a lot of it. Miso soup and dumpling soup were ok. I had imagined my dumpling soup to be dumplings instead of the shumai but it wasn't bad. The sushi was good though I didn't care for the volcano roll. The presentation could have been better. I was expecting some fire or something resembling a volcano. It tasted much different than volcano rolls I've had at other places, probably because of the flakes that it was covered it (it was quite fishy IMO). The rest of the rolls were good and tasted fresh. Service was ok. We were seated pretty quickly and the waitress pointed out which sushi rolls were what when it came out but didn't refill out drinks. read more

Love this place - the sweet potato roll is awesome. I would honestly eat anything they put in front of me. They need a "surprise me" option. They do mostly take out, but the restaurant is clean and the people are friendly. read more

Kissho Sushi - sharing is caring - Sushi Bars Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

I know that this little spot has been around for a while, but my daughter and I got put on to this gem recently. This is a small, intimate dining room. It feel like you have your own personal chef. Perfect date night ambience. The server is knowledgeable, friendly, and efficient. The menu is diverse with classic sushi and many options for non sushi eaters or first timers. The food is artfully prepared and delicious. Come check this restaurant out? read more

First time and we were very happy with the sushi. They accurately adjusted one roll at my request (no jalapeños, please!) and were helpful and pleasant on the phone. Wasabi and ginger were generous, not skimpy like some sushi restaurants. We'll be back. read more

Excellent sushi house. Not a big place on the inside with about 8 tables. Sushi was fresh and prepared quickly even though they were pretty busy that evening. Looks as tho they do more takeout than dine in. Little unusual setup with the bathroom as you need to go outside and down a hall to the strip center communal bathroom. Don't forget to get the code to unlock the door. read more

When I first moved to York about 4 years or so ago I tried this place and did not have a very good experience. I tried it again the other night and loved the sushi and food we got. They are take out only right now but the food was ready within a few min of when they said it would be. I will definitely be back! read more

I've eaten sushi at many, many restaurants, and Kissho cannot be beat! I've never met a dish I didn't like here, and over the past decade I may have had everything on the menu. Their udon and eel dishes are really something special! If you like shumai (shrimp dumplings), they have a delicious shumai soup. The lunch bento meals are fantastic and reasonably priced as well. As something of a sushi connoisseur, I LOVE Kissho! read more

The sushi is mediocre and too expensive for what you get. The biggest disappointment is the service however. We were the only ones here when we placed our order (which took 15 minutes in and of itself to do). It took about 40 minutes to receive our order. They need to convert to being a ghost kitchen instead of a restaurant. This is far and away the worst service I have ever received at a sushi restaurant. read more

Food here is okay, in terms of the vegetarian rolls. The I tried the cucumber, kampyo, and bean curd. The bean curd was definitely the best one. The kampyo felt a bit fishy tasting to me, which was quite off putting. With COVID, they're currently take out only. read more

Don't let anyone tell you otherwise, Kissho is the best sushi in the York, PA area. An outstanding sushi selection with delightful miso & dumpling soup! Always the freshest ingredients with a small but super helpful staff. Been coming to this restaurant for over five years now & it continues to bring a smile to my face. I always make a point to drop in when I'm in the area! read more

We were in the mood for sashimi. They served up a fresh dish of salmon, tuna, yellow tail and white fish. It was purely a protein delicacy that I was in the mood for. I was a little hesitant walking into an Japanese spot for sushi and I believe I saw only 1 Japanese person. I was caught off guard and pleasantly surprised to see that a Spanish speaking gentlemen was at the sushi bar cutting up and rolling sushi - that was cool (but I was nervous). The color, temperature and taste was a pure delight of freshness. Their soups were steaming hot and filled with just the right amount of spices. A really good sushi place. read more

Kissho Sushi - In the mood for sashimi - Sushi Bars Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

This is located inside a strange shopping center with minimal exterior signage. In the mean time, service from Abigail was good and the food was fine. Here are a few areas for improvement, taking into consideration that sushi in York, PA is not going to be the same as NYC or Tokyo. The ikura was not great. It probably is seldom ordered but my 14 year old ordered it anyway. It was edible but not "poppin' fresh". I ordered 2 pieces (one order) of Hamachi sashimi, and it, too, was borderline. Slightly cat-foodish. Now for the good, the salmon was just fine. We shared a salmon sashimi plate (12 slivers) and devoured it. Rolls were fine, tuna, salmon, avocado, crunches, spicy mayo, the typical. Tamago was (as predicted) frozen, but fine. There is no way a place like this is making homemade tamago. The tab was around $130 for the 3 of us. All in all, a very good meal. Especially for York. read more

I've been looking for a new favorite sushi restaurant since moving back to the area recently, and this just might be it. I grabbed takeout tonight, two Chef's Rolls -- the Lobster Roll and the Ichiban Roll. Both were fantastic! Great flavor. Friendly service at the front podium as well. Will definitely come back once things are opened back up for dine-in. read more

I've been here twice now, and I have to say my second experience was lots better than the first time. My first experience with Kissho would have earned 3, maybe 4 stars. For my second experience, I had possibly the best sushi I've had in York. The fish was as fresh and tasty as any other place in York has to offer. The food was very well prepared, which always makes the sushi experience that much better. I've only ever had takeout here, and I have to say I'd now like to try eating there just to see how artistic the sushi chefs are. I view a plate of sushi like a work of art and I would like to see a set up a little different than sushi stuffed into a to go box. The calamari was also excellent here. It was still crispy even after getting the to go order home. The atmosphere also seems nice for a small little place. The staff is very friendly too. Prices are on par with other local sushi restaurants. This is quite the gem for York. I can remember growing up in York when there probably was not even one sushi restaurant. Now there are numerous places to get sushi, and this one gets my vote as the best place to get it. Give it a try if you find yourself in the area. read more

Kissho Sushi - Entrance inside the strip mall - Sushi Bars Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

I came here with my sister on a Saturday evening and I like that it's pretty small and intimate. The BYOB policy is amazing and to date, this is the best sushi I have had in York. The only reason why this is not getting 5 stars is because of the wait. There were only three tables, including my own, that were seated, but it took a really long time for us to get our food. I don't normally complain about something like this, but for the amount of food that we ordered, the multiple to-go orders that went out while we were there, and a fourth table that sat later and got their food before us, I'm obliged to bring it up. This isn't to say I won't be back because that sushi was delish. read more

Kissho is our "go to" for sushi! Prices are good. Sushi is fresh and beautiful. Lots of choices, but not too many that you feel overwhelmed. Staff is friendly. We usually always do take out, have dined in once and the experience was very good. We just prefer our sushi at home in our jammies with a beer. read more

Kissho Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

Hands down best sushi in York. I haven't lived in York for five years now, but every time when I go home for the holiday, I have to come to Kissho to get their sushi. The service was excellent and it's a great place to catch up with family and friends. Some places in York have good food but always so loud, so Kissho gets extra points for that. Good sushi, good price, good service. What more can you ask for ? I've tried all kind of sushi here, the genji roll and volcano roll is my favorite. The yakisoba was very good too. The only thing I'll say Kissho can improve on is their dessert, I haven't gotten anything here dessert wise that I really enjoy. The selection is limited on dessert. Anyway, if you haven't tried Kissho, please give it a shot :p you won't regret it! read more

The best sushi in York County. My husband and I absolutely love this restaurant. Their quality of their fish is amazing. You know that the quality is topnotch when a tuna roll isn't bright orange shaved tuna. None of that here, fresh and delicious pieces of fish with amazing flavor. read more

The sushi was fantastic. I didn't try anything else yet, but I'm glad to see that there is a wide variety of Japanese food instead of just sushi. The service was a little slow, but there was a larger groups that ordered before us so it wasn't really their fault. We came in at 5:15, ordered at 5:40, and got our meal at about 6:30. The woman came over and apologized for it taking so long. They do take out, so those were made before too. But honestly, that's a NORMAL time for waiting on sushi. It Really wasn't a big deal. The food was definitely worth it. My friend says it was the Best sushi he's ever had, and it was probably the best I've had in PA. The restaurant is cozy, and I hope they're able to expand soon. read more

Kissho has probably the best sushi in York County, so far, at least as far as I am concerned. Its over by the York hospital across the street in a small plaza, the location is a bit awkward - and there is no restroom in the restaurant, it is a shared restroom in the plaza, which is a bit different. Kissho is more of your traditional Japanese style restaurant, it is very pleasant, quiet and relaxing - without all the gimmicy trappings of other Asian places. The service is friendly and impeccable, I've eaten here many time over the years and never had a complaint. They are BYOB which is ok - but I would prefer that they serve beer or wine, but you can't win them all. Typically I would get nigiri or sashimi here, but on different occasions I have had a few of their rolls as well - I love the Akira and the Atlantic rolls, they are my favorites. The kids often get the fried rice or the yakisoba - sometimes the udon. It is all wonderful here. If you really love sushi and/or real Japanese cuisine Kissho is worth a visit - truly a gem here in York read more

Delicious sushi, very friendly atmosphere. So happy we stumbled upon this hidden gem.. read more

Kissho Sushi - Bangin!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - York, Pennsylvania

Sushi wise I really enjoyed my meal, the leanest Salmon I have ever had in this area, carefully prepped with a nice presentation. Squash roll was sweet and interesting find on the menu. There were about five other tables full when we ordered. They apologized about the 20 so minute wait on the order but I did not mind much, they even tied us over with some edamame on the house. I had a Salmon combo which was perfect for me. Small order of salmon rolls, 3 pieces of salmon sashmi, 2 nigiri. and a nice spicy salmon hand roll. $17.95 in the end and at first glance the menu seemed a bit pricey, maybe a dollar over what you pay elsewhere but then all their simple sushi rolls are roughly the same price. The fish seems to be high quality, lots of variety on the sushi menu and presentation is spot on. The look of the place is like a well kept little Japanese cafe, nice decor but to too cheesy, fresh paint on the walls and nice tables. The place is small and I imagine its not ideal for big parties unless they have more chairs hidden some where and more than one person making the sushi. Other things on the menu include: Teriyaki, Rice Bowls, Tempura entrees, Katsu, Yakisoba, Udon and Ramen.... haven't tried any of them but I am sure I will be back soon for a nice wintery udon soup soon. So will keep you posted. read more

I've had many people tell me that their favorite sushi in York is "that place by the hospital." I've been to Kissho four times and once for carryout. I will say that their sushi is good - thorough menu, tasty rolls. However, every time I've been there the service was so s-l-o-w. During each visit, they only had one server on staff and everything took forever to come out. For my carryout order, I waited 30 minutes before driving in and then sat there for 20 additional minutes. Luckily when I've gone, I've BYOB'ed so the wait wasn't a huge deal, but I wouldn't rank Kissho as my favorite sushi place in York (I prefer Mitsuru Ya, Wild Ginger or even Masa) read more

Hands down, this is the best sushi restaurant in the York county area. The quality of the food is top notch and fresh and is always consistent. This is a small family owned business and you can tell they take a lot of pride in the food preparation and presentation as well as overall experience. I would highly recommend this without any hesitation. read more
