Restaurant Spotlight: Kings Sushi 🍱

Kings Sushi on Dorchester Road serves as an easy go-to spot for anyone craving sushi & hibachi. The menu covers just about everything—from classic rolls and sashimi to hibachi plates and fried appetizers. It’s the kind of place where you better show up hungry, because you’ll want to order a little bit of everything.

Inside, the atmosphere is simple and comfortable. Tables fill up fast at dinner, but service moves quickly. The kitchen sends out rolls almost as fast as you can finish them. The all-you-can-eat option is what pulls most people in, giving diners the chance to try something new with each round—one minute you’re eating spicy tuna, the next it’s shrimp tempura or a fresh California roll.

Beyond sushi, the menu offers plenty of cooked dishes. The hibachi chicken and steak plates come with vegetables and rice, making them solid choices for anyone not into raw fish. Portions are generous, and everything comes out hot and well-seasoned. It’s easy to see why families and groups stop in for a casual dinner that doesn’t require a reservation or a big budget.

The best part might be the balance of quality and price. Lunch specials keep it affordable, and the all-you-can-eat dinner still feels like a deal at $28.99 compared to other spots around town. Whether you’re there for a quick weekday lunch or a relaxed weekend meal, Kings Sushi delivers exactly what you expect—good food, fast service, and a full stomach by the end of it.
