Reborn in Clifton, Kiki blends ramen, kushiyaki, and an upbeat izakaya spirit from the James Beard–nominated team of Hideki and Yuko Harada. Crowned Best Japanese by CityBeat, it’s lively, personal, and unmistakably Cincinnati.
Amazing food, amazing service! I went to their old location and am so happy they moved to Clifton! The vegetarian and vegan options are great, especially the cauliflower and the ramen! The service was also incredible! They don’t have their liquor license yet so no alcohol. We had a great time - definitely would recommend making a reservation.

Not as cute as their College Hill location was yet but it seems like they’re still getting set up! Small lunch menu while they build back up to operating levels I assume. Ramen was great as always!!

Tried the chicken karaage, Wagyu skewers, pork bao buns, and the mango cheesecake. Everything was delicious. Our server was nice and helpful. We'll be back to try more dishes.

Loved Kiki in College Hill, and we love to see them in Clifton! All our favorites were still on the menu (napa caesar, karaage, gyoza, curry pan) with some delicious sushi additions. We tried the Ludlow roll, Salmon kushiyaki, and Hamachi sashimi. Can’t wait to try the lunch menu! Welcome back 🙂↕️🤌

Food's over priced and not even tastes good. Under staffed and took long time to serve. Even after that order was incomplete but they took some off them from the bill. Not returning again

Went opening night, it was awesome. Saw someone complaining about waiting...Try getting a reservation for opening night on a long time favorite reopening.
