Killa Nikkei — Downtown

About

Salt Lake City's first dedicated Nikkei restaurant, Killa blends Peruvian fire with Japanese precision in the moody, intimate downtown space that formerly housed Current Fish & Oyster. Expect premium seafood, fresh ceviches and tiraditos, sushi, and wood-fired Andean classics alongside a mythology-inspired cocktail program. Signature plates include the Ceviche Killa, the Crab Causa, and the Killa Old Fashioned.

Getting there

By Car

Located at 279 E 300 S in downtown SLC. Metered street parking and nearby pay lots and garages are available along 300 South and the surrounding blocks.

By Public Transit

A short walk from the UTA TRAX Blue and Green Line stops at the Library and Courthouse stations; multiple downtown bus routes serve 300 South and State Street.

By Rideshare

Uber and Lyft serve the downtown core well, with drop-off directly on 300 South in front of the restaurant.

Good to know

The ground-floor downtown location is wheelchair accessible with dine-in seating. Reservations are strongly recommended given the intentionally limited capacity.

Best times to visit

Book a weeknight dinner (Tuesday-Thursday) for the most attentive, unhurried experience; the kitchen and bar hit their stride after 6PM. Lunch is a quieter way to sample the ceviches and causas.
