Best sushi in NKY and greater Cincinnati area! sushi is so fresh it melts in your mouth. The owners are fantastic. Been a few times and the owners remembered us and our order. Very authentic and clean place to have the best sushi!

Top quality and supremely fresh. Well worth the higher prices for those with discernible palates. The food is made to highlight natural flavors-delicate, natural, and mouth watering. Don't compare La Hiro's to 1/2 sushi (still love you 1/2 sushi!)-it'd be comparing apples to oranges.

La Hiro is located right near the Sakura Japanese Grocery store over in Florence. It's quite a bit of a drive, but we stopped by when I came back to town from my flight into CVG. I assumed that this place specialized in sweets since it's in the name, and so I was determined to try something out. We came in around 2:30 PM and they still had the lunch menu available, so that was a relief since usually dinner is expensive, though I'm not super knowledgeable about their menu or the differences to say the least. Generally, their dishes aren't too terribly expensive. I ordered a Tonkatsu and the SO ordered sashimi. The tonkatsu was about the size of my palm, came with sauce and a mini salad. All of it came with miso and salad. The SO's sashimi came with 3 pieces of each fish and also came with miso and salad. Just the way that my dish was presented, you could tell there was something a little bit different. The owners take a lot of time 'designing' and plating their dishes. You could really see and taste the 'homemade' love with an inkling of elegance. While the portions aren't excessive, and the prices might not be completely on point (speaking specifically to non-main kind of entrees), you are eating a meal made with a lot of heart. This is really the first time I've experienced this. The whole place bleeds of heart and you can tell that it's a restaurant where the owners had dreamed of opening it, where the husband wants to serve fresh fish, and the wife wants to make delicious and beautiful desserts. I was bummed that they didn't have the green tea cake, and even though it was late by bakery standards, they had many cakes and sweets still available. It doesn't seem like all of them are on the menu, so you I'm assuming she's always experimenting with new techniques and flavors. I opted for a raw cheesecake with a jello top with cherry blossoms, or sakura, imbedded. The dessert was so delicate yet rich. It wasn't too sweet and it wasn't heavy at all. I could have eaten the entire slice by myself! Overall, the bill came out to be about 26$ for 2 people, filling me up quite well, though leaving him a bit on the half full side, and with tip bumped that up to $30. It's not any more expensive than other legit Japanese restaurants, though I wish it were closer! I'll definitely be coming back to try some more cakes :)

Hiromi san and her husband used to own Aoi at Newport. Our family was a regular at this rest. We were so sad that they decided to leave this location. Luckily they came back to the area. Good authentic Japanese food with a great smile.

This is our first time at La Hiro Sushi and Sweets. Some Yelpers revealed that this place is run by the former owners of Aoi and the reviews were rave enough or us to make the 20 minute drive to Florence, KY. It is in a strip mall right next to a UDF store. We got there on a Sunday evening at 745 pm. It is a small restaurant with an unassuming sign. It looks clean and smells clean. They weren't too busy with 3 tables occupied all with Japanese customers. I was thinking this must be a good sign. They have a simple "regular" menu and a sushi menu, although they allowed my son to order an entree that was not on the menu. For starters we had fried tofu, Japanese fried chicken, poke salad and gyoza. The fried tofu which was soft and sweet melted in your mouth, the poke salad had small dices of fresh salmon with sea weed was quite refreshing, and the fried chicken and gyoza were really delicious. In addition, my sons also had their own sushi and sashimi starters which were My wife had the sashimi bowl which she was delighted that it had a generous amount of fish, and more importantly it was really fresh and very good. I had a Bento dish which had crab cake, hamburger and slices of salmon and rice. Overall it was an enjoyable and good entree although I did not care much for the crab cake. After experiencing the gold standard of crab cakes in Cannon Beach, Oregon, with more crab than filling, La Hiro's crab cake was a let down. One of my sons had the Unagi Don, which was not on the menu, and loved his generous slab of unagi on a bowl of rice; and the other had tempura beef, which was gone in no time. We were full by the time we were done however lady owner informed us that all their desserts are made fresh on site and invited us to just check the display. Well we obliged and the rest is history. They looked so exquisite, delicious and irresistible so we ended up bringing a whole bunch of "samplers" to try at home. Slurp! We really had an enjoyable dinner at La Hiro Sushi and Sweets. Their food was fresh, delicious and meticulously prepared. We had a very positive experience thus will continue to support this Mom and Pop restaurant. We will be back for sure!

I drove 30 minutes to get here because I was excited to check out this Japanese bakery. After a trip to Japan last year I am sold for life on the quality of Japanese goods and I knew La Hiro would be no exception. It was a slow night and bakery selection was limited, but I tried the green tea cake (with red bean filling) and it was SUPER! Perfectly fluffy, flavorful, and the beautiful to look at as well. La Hiro appears to be primarily restaurant with a bakery case on the side, so I decided to order something off the menu. The lady (I believe the owner) suggested the tempura udon and it was a great choice. Tasty broth, delicious tempura shrimp, lots of udon noodles, and well packaged for my ride home. I would like to see more traditional Japanese bakery selections: tarts and red bean buns! I wish it was closer to Cincinnati so I could come here more often!

New favorite Japanese restaurant in the area! Funny how we drive down to Kentucky to find authentic Japanese food... thank you, Toyota headquarters. SUSHI/ENTREES: First off, fish here is fresh! The salmon sashimi was perfect, almost melt-in-your-mouth perfect, and that's hard to come by when you're land-locked. A cut above your "half-off sushi" places in terms of authenticity and freshness. Some of the cooked entrees seemed more Americanized but looked delicious nonetheless. My friend thoroughly enjoyed his tempura soba (he was sweating a bit after downing it, which can only be taken as a sincere compliment). DESSERT: Boy oh boy did the sweets seal the deal. The surest way to this girl's heart is through matcha, and not only did they have matcha cake, but matcha jello topped with red bean cream, and green tea cookies! It almost felt like I was in Japan again or heaven. Some dessert items weren't on the menu, so it seems they're still experimenting. I was warned that the matcha jello was a bit bitter, but I thought the red bean added just the right amount of sweetness. I licked clean the whole cup, it was so refreshing. The matcha cake was light, reminding me of Asian-style cakes back home. Good, but I can't stop thinking about the jello. Restaurant is a fairly new mom & pop shop. Dining here almost feels like being taken care of in someone's home. What also impressed me was the beautiful and meticulous way they present the food. We asked for the matcha cake on display, and when they brought it to our table it came with a side smattering of chocolate and caramel sauce. The sushi platter was also very thoughtfully presented with sliced cucumbers and an avocado sauce that I almost missed while zeroing in on the sashimi. A bit pricey, but if you enjoy good sushi, you won't be disappointed.

I usually give 4-5 star at sushi/Japanese restaurants I'm biased. I love sushi. Continuing onto my review. Sunday is our date night. Dinner and a movie. I asked my girlfriend Toey, where she wanted to go for dinner? She didn't care. I heard La Hiro had good sushi and deserts from a friend of mine Matt/Minnie Lay. So we went there, it was not too busy for Sunday night. First thing I was craving for seaweed salad, the portion was small for 5 dollars. Onto dinner ordered 4 rolls. Spider roll and spicy tuna and some type of basil roll. My girlfriend said the roll were quit small, I even agreed with her. The presentation was ok, nothing to write home about. Overall the prices seemed high for Northern Kentucky. The owners wife seem not too attentive to wait on us...oh well she seemed too busy dealing with her regulars. Highlight of the meal was the spicy tuna,,, it was good, big chunks of tuna,not grounded up. The desert was good. After dinner I was still hungry, paid $70 for 2 not worth it. Overall I probably won't make an effort too come back...sorry :-(

This place is on the expensive side. I will say that you pay for what you get! There isn't to many Japanese sushi bars that will make anything that you have requested! If it's not on the menu and they have it you will get it! If you haven't tried this place and are picky about your sushi, try it and you will be a fan!
(5)Sherry T.
I wanted to rate this five stars due to the excellent service and outstanding sushi. The owners are incredibly friendly and were happy to make a dragon roll and an avocado roll for us, which were not on the menu. Unfortunately, the entrees and dessert left much to be desired. My chicken teriyaki was slightly undercooked and served with frozen French fries that had been reheated (completely unexpected) and some green beans, which were fine. The broth with my husband's ramen tasted like the broth generated by one of those packets that come from grocery store purchased ramen, but much more watered down. We also shared a piece of cake, which tasted slightly of freezer burn. We will return many times for the service and the sushi.

Best Sushi in N. Kentucky with a wonderful husband and wife team, excellent Sushi, service, and deserts. And great team and fresh, french press, coffee.
(5)Sheena D.
As most of the reviews mentioned... the food is good, fresh fish and good flavor. The menu is great... sushi/Japanese and Italian. Good if you like sushi and your other half doesn't. I came here for lunch, and while it was good, there are several other sushi places in Northern Kentucky that are good and much cheaper. I was mostly disappointed that they didn't have any lunch specials or combos like most of their competition. In short, I'm glad I tried it... never seen another place with such a diverse menu, but I can't say I'd be back for a $20 lunch (miso soup, one roll and one order of sashimi).
(3)Ann L.
The Philadelphia Roll was perfect. The main room has soft pink walls with cool art. The lady server was very nice.
(4)Dustin C.
Super fresh. I was surprised to find sashimi like this in the Ohio valley. He apparently won't use frozen seafood so if he can't get something fresh he doesn't serve it. Wonderful food!
(5)Lianna N.
They seem to be husband and wife team. I really love the sushi, very fresh and tasty. They also have a delicious garden ginger salad. I will be back again soon!
(4)Jeff R.
Wonderful experience. Was our second time eating there and both times have been awesome. Very fresh sushi. I am not a dessert person but their strawberry cake is amazing. Try this place!

The Sashimi Road (Continued): .This was a fantastic find though a little bit odd in that sweets and Italian type food are intermixed with the traditional Japanese cuisine. It is a little hole in the wall located in a group of shops just like a mini strip mall. The waitress and chef were friendly and helpful. It appears that if the item is not fresh then they won't serve it, meaning that not all items may be available. The menu is extensive so with one or two items not available it really isn't a problem unless you have your heart set on a particular one. This can also be a good sign because everything is fresh and freshly prepared. The Sashimi was very good. Their octopus was not overly chewing like you find in a lot of restaurants which indicates they are using a fresh ingredient and a good process in cooking it. The mackerel was very fresh as white tuna (I forgot to inquire whether it was white tuna or escobar to see their response...you know the controversy). Now this was the first time I ever received the Salmon Roe in a small bowl as sashimi and I really enjoyed it. In a number of places when you say I want Salmon Roe sashimi they don't know how to prepare it. I have received the response of "you can't have Salmon Roe as sashimi", "I don't know how to make it, can you tell me", some roe on cucumber or a small portion just plobbed down on the plate. This salmon roe was great. A couple of other noteworthy comments were the sake and little touches. They have an excellent and reasonably priced selection of sake if this is your cup of tea (sake), and you can tell they are about food because they add little things to the items you order. Example is the typical cucumber salad that comes in a little bowl. Most places just give you sauce and cucumbers, but here there is garnish. My sister also commented that these were the best pot stickers she has had because they were not over cooked. Good Food Now the atmosphere is not the best and there isn't a lot of tables, so if you are going to take someone out for this then go elsewhere. But for the type of space it is, they have done a good job. Atmosphere =3 Location = 3 Service = 4 Quality = 4 Knife Skills = 3 Cost = 4 Less expensive that average * You may ask why I write about Sashimi: If your Sashimi is good, so will your sushi because it is the basis for sushi and other dishes.

Formally AOI on Newport on the Levee. The menu is excellent. It also offers pasta dishes and bakery items perfect for afternoon tea gathering. We ordered the Chirashi at $27. The quality and quantity you get is worth the money. We also sampled one of their specials, Shrimp cream pasta. The spaghetti was cooked Al Dante, unlike many other Italian/pasta restaurants. We will be a regular at this place for sure!

Authentic Japanese food. The restaurant is simple and beautiful, and the service is great. I recommend the ramen.

Let me just start by saying that I may be a little biased for this place because my family has waited a long time for this place to open. We know the owners and have been fans of their sushi for quite some time. They are genuinely nice people who put their heart and soul into this new place. Hiromi will greet you with a smile. The sushi is fresh and the desserts are wonderful. They will make custom orders rolls as well. My son loves this place and they do have high chairs if you have little ones. They do not have the typical hours you would anticipate for a sushi restaurant. They are open every days with no mid-day closing time. They don't have a website yet, but are on facebook. It may be a bit of a drive for some, but well worth it. We drive over 35 minutes :)
(5)David B.
So lunch started out poorly, the server (I think she is the owner was sorta rude), ordered the pepper and dumpling soup - was hot and spicy - very good. Next came the white tuna and salmon sashimi - very, very fresh, melt in your mouth tasty. Last was a rainbow roll - not put together all that great, but once again incredibly fresh and tasty. First time here so benefit of doubt about the service, but clearly the food was awesome.
(4)Jason S.
We have only had sushi here, and it has to be the best in the city. It's a small place with a man and his wife running it. Seems to cater to the Toyota crowd, but everyone is welcome. We have eaten sushi all over the city, actually all over the world, and this place is rated at the top of my list!
(5)Jennifer A.
Great service! The woman serving ( the owner?) was so sweet. Food was tasty. Two sushi rolls were $13.00. A bit on the small side. Nice wine and beer selection. Soft drinks were in bottles and were a bit pricey. 3.00/bottle Overall a nice dinner!

Come support a local business that is new to Florence/Union KY area. Great authentic Japanese food. I have been here about 5 times in since they have opened and can definitely say they put love in there food. Even the take out is packaged nicely and friendly staff is an extra bonus.
