I was staying locally and looked for somewhere to meet my uncle for dinner. The Google reviews looked good so we thought we'd give KUSHI a try. We are so glad we did, it's a little gem of a place. Excellent service, amazing food and a relaxed dining experience. We also enjoyed the DJ later in the evening and would have stayed longer if we could have. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.
