Kimono Japanese Restaurant

If you're in Kernersville and craving sushi or hibachi, Kimono Japanese Restaurant is one of those laid-back gems you’ll want to check out. Tucked away at 825A S Main St, this cozy spot mixes casual vibes with authentic Japanese flavors — perfect for everything from family dinners to catching up with friends.

Walking into Kimono, the first thing you notice is how relaxed and welcoming it feels. Whether you're rolling deep with a group or wrangling a few kids, the space is designed to keep everyone comfortable. The staff is friendly, and service tends to be quick — something you’ll appreciate when hunger hits.

But let’s talk about the food. Kimono’s menu is packed with options. Sushi fans will find a solid variety of rolls, sashimi, and nigiri, all crafted with fresh ingredients that hit just right. If raw fish isn’t your thing, the hibachi options are a major win. There’s something about watching your meal sizzle on a grill that just makes it taste better — and the portions are generous without going over the top.

Prices are fair, which is another plus, especially if you’re dining with a crew. And even if you’re swinging by solo, the atmosphere never feels too formal or too quiet. It’s casual, but not dull — a solid middle ground that’s surprisingly hard to find.

Locals know it’s one of Kernersville’s go-to spots for Japanese eats, and once you’ve been, it’s easy to see why. The food’s consistent, the setting’s chill, and the experience is reliably satisfying. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, Kimono Japanese Restaurant hits that sweet spot of good food, good company, and zero fuss.

This place is so fast and the food is soooo good! I order it for the work place for people it's done in like 15 minutes.

We haven't been in about 6 months and the last time we were here the food, the service and the environment was less than desirable. Tonight, everything was on par! The restaurant looked clean, we were greeted promptly, server was attentive and the new manager was on top of it! He was very professional, polite and we got the feeling he really cared. We will definitely be back!

I've been here a handful of times over the years. The food is consistent, never had an issue with an order. The service is good, servers are friendly and efficient. The menu has plenty to choose from. Overall, Kimono is a good, local restaurant which I'd recommend to anyone who is looking for good Japanese food!
