Japanese food with no frills

At Kima, we are dedicated to going back to basics.
Good food at a good price. A little rough around the edges, and rooted in the energy of a true neighbourhood izakaya.
We won't cut corners on the quality of the food, just on the frills that go with it.
That way we can provide an authentic experince that won't break the bank.
Come by for a quick bite, a long sit, or just because it feels like the right spot.
Where?
We believe the best restaurants belong where people actually spend their day.
That's why you'll find us in two very different neighbourhoods, each with the same goal: serving authentic Izakaya food and hospitality to the community.
