    Love this restaurant. Food and drinks are always spot on. The filet mignon was exquisite and done perfectly. Waitress was pleasant and timed our orders perfectly. Sushi was tasty and appetizers super good. Best crab rangoon ever. Expensive bit excellent.

    One of my go to places when I’m in town. Food was excellent, although slightly expensive the quality is worth it. I wish the server staff would learn the menu though. That means a lot when they’re delivering your food when they can explain it makes a big difference.

    Gotta love the consistency of this place every Friday for lunch I’ll be coming here and it’s proving to not disappoint. Gotta try the lobster roll if you love some delicious succulent, lobster and some fries. Best part about this place is the staff who is always there to help you with whatever questions you need about their menu or just with their pleasant smiles.

    kitaro sushi is one of the best in Northwest Indiana and continues to be hands down one of the best date night places to go during lent. I can’t say enough how nice of a feeling it is to be greeted by Carrie the owner personally and to see her husband Jon making the fresh sushi in the back ….Will definitely recommend to everybody I know and continue to eat and go here as much as possible

    My husband and I celebrated my birthday at Kitaro eating and drinking our favorites- edamame and gyozas to start, Asian pear martinis, and then our favorite rolls! The Lemon Salmon roll is becoming one of our favorites! Highly recommended! Couldn’t pass up birthday dessert chocolate caramel soufflé. Food and Service as always was top notch! Thank you Kitaro!
