Waki is a highly-recommended restaurant known for serving exceptional sushi and Japanese dishes. The service is impeccable, with friendly and knowledgeable staff ensuring a perfect dining experience. The clean and minimalistic atmosphere adds to the enjoyment of the meal. The menu features a range of delicious options, including the popular stuffed mushrooms, fresh Hokkaido uni, and Kaisen Donburi with finely cut fresh fish. Recent highlights include the wonderful hamachi and wagyu nigiri, as well as the beautiful and tasty sushis. Other standout dishes are the 10-piece tasting, Lion King roll, Crispy Caterpillar roll, and chicken katsu. Waki also offers kid-friendly options, such as kid chopsticks, and is knowledgeable about dietary restrictions, making it easier for families. Guests appreciate the beautiful attention to details and cooking technique, with some calling it the best sushi in Alameda. While the fish is fresh and delicious, there have been comments about the sashimi being cut too thick and the miso soup tasting old. The wide selection of sake, including White Peach Yuki Nigori, enhances the experience. With wheelchair accessibility and a unique ambience reminiscent of Japan, Waki is a must-visit for sushi lovers and newcomers alike.
