Welcome to Kiku Japanese Restaurant, a culinary gem nestled inside Commerce Court, right behind the Security Desk. Established in 1983, Kiku holds the distinction of introducing sushi to Pittsburgh, spreading the rich flavors and traditions of Japanese cuisine to the local community. The name "Kiku" is the Japanese word for chrysanthemum, a flower renowned for its diverse colors and shapes, which made its way to Japan through Chinese silk traders. This beautiful blossom is celebrated in Japan every November with vibrant festivals, and we invite you to join us in these festivities.
ようこそ菊へ! At Kiku, we offer authentic Japanese cuisine crafted by our skilled Japanese chefs. Our journey began as "Sushigen" in Tokyo, and driven by a passion to share Japanese traditions and culture, our owner opened Kiku Japanese Restaurant in Pittsburgh in 1983. Feel free to reach out to us in Japanese as well.
Thanks to your support, we are proud to celebrate our 40th anniversary this year. The staff at Kiku is committed to continuing to bring you delicious dishes and exceptional service. We extend our heartfelt gratitude to all our customers, friends, and family for their unwavering support over the years. As we embark on our 40th year, we cherish the relationships that have made Kiku's existence possible and look forward to many more decades together.
We wish you a happy new year and eagerly anticipate your next visit. Here's to another year of delightful dining experiences at Kiku Japanese Restaurant!

"One of the most authentic Japanese restaurants I have been to, and I have been to Japan! 10/10. If I had to say one bad thing it would be the wooden chopsticks. That is just me being nit-picky. The food, presentation and atmosphere were fantastic and our server Justin did a fantastic job. Will definitely make this a staple during our trips to PA!"
"We had lunch there on Sunday, August 4, 2024. I've had sashimi in many places, including Japan, and this is one of the best and most authentic experiences I've had outside Japan. The service was excellent. Even my wife and brother-in-law, who are Japanese, agreed. This will be our go-to place whenever we're in Pittsburgh. P.S. Thank you for the bags you gave us. Wishing you another 40 years of success in business. ありがとう"
"My partner surprised me with a visit to Kiku earlier this week. I had been recommended by a friend but never got the chance to go until now. I have eaten at many sushi spots in Pittsburgh, and I can argue that this is one of the best. The service is amazing, food comes out quickly and staff is kind and on top of things! We had some appetizers and the sushi for 2 as our main meal! Try the nigiri!!! It’s fresh and flavorful, it melts in your mouth! The matcha ice cream is amazing too, it’s homemade! Can’t wait to come back."
"We found this place in 2020 when we moved here from California. The staff is amazing. The hot food is very good, tempura plates, udon, tataki. The raw fish is okay. It's not the highest quality for sashimi, which I prefer, but their rolls are yummy. I have the atmosphere a three star just because it's not really busy during weekend lunches when we typically go and so it's just quiet but that's not bad either."
