Founded in 2007, King Kong Sushi was created with the vision of advancing fusion sushi by drawing on multi-national culinary influences and local traditions. The restaurant’s Executive Chef leads a team that continuously experiments with ingredients like avocado and seaweed, reimagining their use to suit American palates. By placing rice on the outside of rolls and incorporating elements such as mango, cream cheese, and tempura flakes, the team helped pioneer new forms of maki that distinguish their offerings. The concept gained widespread acclaim, leading to the opening of a second location at Broadway at the Beach in 2009, further solidifying its reputation as a leader in the regional dining scene.
