The store is very clean and neat. When I needed assistance locating a drink, Monique was very helpful and friendly. This is the place to stop if you need a quick snack or drink.

Love coming to Kimura’s to see Naomi and Aunty Joni! They have the best exotic snacks! Their desserts like the Oreo poke cake and strawberry jello cakes are out of this world! 😍 The salad and the homemade Caesar dressing is the best. Love the hot foods, bentos, and musubis too! PS Bring back the apple turnover! 🍎
