Bonzai: Sushi and a place in downtown Kirksville

Bonzai brings sushi and Japanese restaurant fare to 112 West Harrison Street in Kirksville. For someone looking beyond a burger or pizza downtown, it is a specific option to investigate: its restaurant listing identifies sushi rolls alongside cooked dishes such as chicken katsu, sesame chicken and tempura.

Those listings are useful starting points, especially for a group whose members want different kinds of meals. They are not a guarantee that every photographed roll or old menu price is still available. Ask for the current menu when ordering.

A storefront connected to its neighbors

Bonzai participates in Main Street Kirksville's coordinated open-flag program. The organization's June 2026 account of the program includes Bonzai among locally owned downtown businesses displaying the flags to help people find open storefronts.

That is a documented contribution beyond its food: participation in a shared effort to make the business district easier to navigate. Its restaurant offering also adds another cuisine to the choices available within downtown.

Planning a meal

Bonzai's Facebook page is the contact destination linked by Kirksville Tourism. The restaurant's listed phone number is 660-665-3616.

Published directories show separate lunch and evening service periods. Check the day's hours before making a special trip, particularly for a late lunch. If you are choosing sushi for the first time, ask which items are cooked and what comes with the order. For ingredient restrictions, get details from the restaurant instead of relying on a roll's name.
