Sushi at Shiki Sushi in Kennewick – April 6, 2026

I spent the evening catching up with my bonus daughter and decided on Shiki Sushi in Kennewick, the small spot tucked by Olive Garden. It felt like the right place for a relaxed dinner and good conversation after a busy week.

What I Ordered

  • Main: Four different sushi rolls (I don’t recall the names)
  • Sides: None that stood out this time — we were focused on the rolls

The Experience

The place was busy, which made it feel lively but not overwhelming. The service was great; our orders arrived quickly and the staff checked in without hovering. The atmosphere had a good vibe and the food is legit, making it an easy spot to relax and catch up.

What Stood Out

The flavors across the four rolls were the highlight. Each roll had its own profile — some were more creamy, others leaned brighter with citrusy or vinegared rice notes — and everything combined well on the plate. Texture-wise, the rice had a nice balance and the fish felt fresh. There wasn’t a single roll that fell flat.

Details I Noticed

  • Freshness: The fish tasted clean and the rice wasn’t too mushy.
  • Balance: Flavors were layered without being overpowering.
  • Speed: Food came out fast, which kept the conversation flowing without long pauses.

Would I Get It Again?

Yes. I’d go back to try more rolls and see what names match the ones we enjoyed. It definitely hit the spot for a casual dinner with someone you care about.

Pro Tips

  • Go during off-peak times if you prefer a quieter table; it gets busy early evening.
  • If you’re curious about specific rolls, ask what’s recommended that day — their fresh options change often.

All told, Shiki Sushi delivered a solid meal and a good night of conversation. If you’re in Kennewick and want reliable sushi near Olive Garden, this one’s worth a stop. I’m always on the lookout for what I think could be the best sushi in the Tri-Cities, this could be a contender.
