The Take
Order the sashimi or nigiri omakase with plain rice at Kinjo Japanese Restaurant. Fresh uni and otoro deliver the standout quality while everything else pulls it mid.
Vegetable tempura and hibachi default to seed oils. Teriyaki, curry, and mayo rolls add sugar and processed extras that dilute the fish.
The Verdict
Kinjo Japanese Restaurant serves solid raw fish but defaults to industrial shortcuts on the cooked side. The Brooklyn counter rewards people who stick to the seafood and skip the fryer.
Ask for grilled fish or a sashimi platter with no added sauces. Order the sashimi or nigiri omakase with plain rice and skip the fried sides.
