50 Best Sushi Bars near Alamo

“Freshest fish....my favorite local sushi place!! They have great specials and the staff“

“Outstanding! Always…… Dave Y. You’re just a Karen. Everything about RJ’s is fantastic. If anyone doesn’t like RJ’s, they have much greater hurdles to deal with and simply can’t find the good in anything. Hats off to the staff, the owner and the regulars.“

“best sushi and cheap!!! will come again!!!“

“Sushi to go near San Ramon, Danville and Blackhawk areas. The sushi is fresh and reasonably priced. There is no table here, just a counter to order for pick up. It could get busy at times so I'll advise to use their online order or call to place your order ahead of time. My family and I found this from our friends recommendations and this is now our to go place for sushi cravings.“

“Last Friday evening our party of 8 celebrated a warm and jubilant birthday, early Father’s Day party. From our arrival to our leaving the entire staff greeted us like family. All of our appetizers, Sushi-Rolls, were delicious! We all loved our Entrees-our seafood was expertly prepared!
Blue Sakana is “Our Special Place”…“

“Anytime we are in Pleasanthill area we try to eat at Jo’s Honda Sushi. We used to live in Pleasanthill and we would go there at least once a week. We love Honda and all his family ❤️“

“Very quick and efficient service. Food was pretty good for our first time there. Lots of Roll options, many unique that I had not seen before. Very nice presentation on the plates!
I had the Pork Ramen with Soba noodles, very tasty and filling.“

“Absolutely love Hanabi! It's our favorite sushi spot, and it never disappoints. The quality of the fish is consistently fresh and delicious, and the presentation is always beautiful. The staff is friendly and attentive, making every visit feel special. Whether we're craving classic rolls or trying something new from their menu, Hanabi always hits the mark. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, top-notch sushi. We'll definitely be back!“

“Super friendly and delicious….“

“The sushi here is seriously good - fresh ingredients, creative rolls you won’t find anywhere else. The Fuji Roll? Absolutely delicious. Prices are reasonable, and the staff is friendly, even if the vibe inside feels a bit cramped and could use a deeper clean. It’s a small spot, so I’d recommend takeout or delivery over dining in. For the quality of food though, it’s worth it.“

“A lot of choices to make your own Poke Bowl at affordable price. You cannot go wrong. it was my bf and I'm first time to try it there and know regret at all. Highly recommended. 👍“

“We had the chicken and beef bento boxes witch you can choose 2 sides. Both came with shrimp tempuras. The food taste good and
fair priced. Family own , friendly service and clean ambience.
I am especially impressed with their good sushi rice.“

“Very expensive but good food. For context, I brought my son for his 25th birthday. We had 9 people, all 17+ years old and _no_ alcohol was ordered. The bill for 9 people with automatic tip came out to be $390 or $44/person.

With that out of the way, we had a good experience. The waitress was very gentle and patient. The place has nice decoration and Japanese architecture.. at least it reminds me of one which is a nice plus on the ambience. We sat at the upper platform so that part is not wheelchair accessible.

They have both menu book and also QR code so you can see what the food looks like. The raw stuff were fresh. Photos shows the things we ordered and everyone loved it. Since it's very expensive, we only come here on very special occasion and this is my 3rd visit in 2 years.

Yes I would go back again.“

“My favorite Sushi spot in Walnut Creek!!! It’s amazing here. I get the premium omakase and hand rolls every time. (Usually spicy tuna or salmon). The fish is super fresh and my favorite nigiri is the otoro of course.

They have some rolls there that are pretty good as well. The pacific roll is one of the ones we always get. But you can’t go wrong with all the others. Just pick the one with fish you like and it will taste so good.

Also the staff is so friendly and attentive. It’s worth it every time we go :)“

“I recently visited this sushi restaurant and unfortunately, my experience was far from pleasant. I ordered a chicken teriyaki roll, but I got a chicken teriyaki plate. And despite clearly saying 'roll,' the worker rudely insisted that I needed to specify 'roll' next time. This made me feel unnecessarily pressured.

When I kindly asked for the roll to be remade, another worker quickly mentioned that the kitchen was closing soon. Shortly after, she returned with a plate trying to take the teriyaki off my plate saying the kitchen would make it for me, but at that point, the restaurant was about to close and I didn’t want to feel rushed.

Overall, I truly love this place I hope next time they don’t make me feel bad for not saying things “right”.“

“Ozora has become my go-to place for sushi in the Walnut Creek area. While I usually stick to takeout (the dining room is often packed, which is a good sign), the quality and consistency of their rolls keep me coming back.

I almost always order the same rolls, and the Sora (pictured) is hands-down my favorite. It’s packed with tempura shrimp and crab inside, and topped with salmon, tuna, and yellowtail—perfectly balanced and beautifully prepared every time. Unlike some places that overload the crab or cut the pieces too large, Ozora nails the proportions and presentation consistently.

Their gyoza and miso soup are also solid sides that round out the meal nicely. I’ve ordered from here dozens of times, and the quality is always top-notch.

The staff is friendly, the service is efficient, and even though it’s busy, they handle takeout orders smoothly.

If you’re in the area and looking for reliable, high-quality sushi at a fair price, Ozora is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend—especially the Sora roll!“

“The sushi was really good“

“Loved the calamari. Husband loved the mixed udon soup which stayed hot for a while in its metal bowl. The Phoenix roll was good also , (the fried soft crab had a little bit of metallic taste to it). We both agreed the kabocha tempura was the best--the taro and sweet potato were ok. Will have to return to try more things including lunch specials. The menu is quite extensive and has items I have not tried before elsewhere. Great value: food for price. This was a great find. The shopping center has many other Asian restaurants.“

“House of Sake in Walnut Creek is an absolute comfort spot with phenomenal quality sushi! Every dish we tried was a delightful experience. The Spicy Holly Roll stood out with its bold, smoky flavors and scrumptious layers—an absolute must-try. The Godzilla Roll was a petite masterpiece, with a beautifully crafted tempura shell that was perfectly crisp and evenly dispersed.

The Cherry Blossom Roll was another highlight, boasting a clean, fresh flavor and a stunning presentation that was almost too pretty to eat. We also enjoyed the Negihama Cut Roll (yellowtail and green onion) and the New Orleans Roll (spicy tuna cut roll)—both incredibly fresh and satisfying. The creative names for these simple yet perfectly executed rolls added a fun touch to the meal.

Every bite hit the spot, and the attention to detail in both flavor and presentation is second to none. Highly recommend House of Sake for anyone seeking exceptional sushi and a memorable dining experience!“

“Chose to come here on a spontaneous Wednesday night and ordered the nigiri and sashimi boat for our table of 3. We could see the chefs carefully crafting the boat while we enjoyed some of their appetizers. Food and service was amazing!! One of the servers saw us playing a game on our phones and striked up a conversation with us, he was so incredible friendly. Will definitely come back again!!“

“Toyo is hands down our favorite sushi restaurant in the entire Bay Area. The sushi is always incredibly fresh, flavorful, and beautifully made. Every roll is packed with high-quality ingredients, and you can taste the difference.
The service is fast, friendly, and consistent, they take great care of their customers. We come here all the time and it never disappoints. Highly recommend!“

“I lost count of how many times I’ve come here - they never miss. The menu is familiar but enough unique items to stand out amongst all of the other AYCE sushi OR hotpot restaurants around.. oh and did I mention they offer both.. get this - for the same price ? come visit, you won’t regret it!“

“Excellent sushi place. Restaurant is very well decorated inside. Staff was very friendly and attentive. They brought us miso soup as soon as we sat down. Tons of options included veggie rolls and non sushi options. Food came quickly and was fresh and very tasty. The prices were reasonable as well. Can't wait to return and try some other items.“

“Very fresh and would definitely recommend the Big Combo Appetizer (Shumai, Gyoza, Tempura & Yakitori) to go with your Meal. Very friendly people, satisfied with the Food and Service😋“

“Friendly staff, pleasant ambiance, fresh seafood“

“I always have a great time when I come. The quality of the food is great with good portion sizes, especially for the price. The menu is huge so everyone can find something to get.My favorites are the hamachi kama, green beans, house salad (they put a lot of dressing, you can always ask for less), fried rice, and honestly any of the rolls (I've had several of them and I liked all of them)!Staff is always super friendly, attentive, and treat you like family.“

“Some of the best sushi in the East Bay, and one of the best sushi chefs, Jack san,“

“Loved this place, but removing a star because they took the teriyaki salmon option off the menu. Strange, because everyone loved it and it was often sold out! The raw fish is hit or miss. Bring back the teriyaki!

My roommates and I check doordash every week or so, just to see if they have Salmon Samba.“

“Stopped by for lunch at 2pm and plenty of seating inside. I used the self order kiosk on the table, which made ordering a breeze. The sushi rolls came out in about 8-10 minutes and they were huge rolls.

I typically eat two, but I coule barely finish these. They were incredibly filling and each roll was less than $12, which is a great deal in 2024. Service was excellentand I really enjoyed the meal. I get work done on my car across the street often, so i'll be stopping by whenever i'm in the area from now on.

Parking: It seems like there are about 12 or so spots, but also plenty of parjing along E.14th in front of the restaurant, as well as the side street which crosses it.

Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of access for wheelchairs.“

“Best sushi for cheap around“

“Everything is fresh. Very nice presentation.“

“Freshest seafood with great service.“

“Finally decided to order from here. Checked out the reviews. Most were pretty dated. Settled on the titanic roll and spicy chicken ramen. The titanic roll was Amazing!! It was fresh, hot, big enough to split (I didn't). Flavor was on point. Don't really remember a crunchy component but I wouldnt hesitate to order it again.The spicy ramen on the other hand was extremely subpar. Great portion size for the price, but the broth was flavorless. The chicken was definitely dark meat. The veggies and ramen were overcooked. Chicken bouillon, salt and red pepper flakes were a must to achieve the flavor I was looking for.“

“The freshest sushi I’ve ever had in this area. Hands down. Will definitely be back!“

“BEST TERIYAKI CHICKEN!! Great food! Great service!“

“Good food, good service and value for money!“

“Thank you Evie and all the staff for making our boys grad night dinner so special!! If you have not tried this place out you need too!! Amazing suchi and yummy Tao Tacos!!“

“I was looking for sushi, I decided to go here and I was fascinated, excellent service and they have a variety and very fresh. I recommend that you make a reservation. The tables are tight, I think it would not be comfortable for large groups. Obviously I will return ??

* I'm putting up photos of the dishes I tried.
** I forgot to take a photo of the grilled octopus but it is delicious.“

“We came in right around when I imagine the Sunday lunch rush had ended because for the moment we were the only two in the entire establishment. Things that stand out, the atmosphere is great. Being next to a busy intersection you'd expect a lot more road noise but it was relatively quiet inside. Great, and quick service.I can certainly see myself becoming a regular here because their chicken teriyaki is delicious. While the food was great my only gripe is parking. Good luck, and if you can park nearby it's worth the walk.

Parking: The lot behind the restaurant is private and belongs to the surrounding apartments. Street parking is very hit or miss. Parking across the street at the BevMo! and crossing seems to be the best strat for this location if your driving.“

“Excellent sushi again and again. Highly recommend this restaurant. Great service and fresh fish every time.“

“It was the best sushi! We will be back!“

“Excellent quality healthy and authentic Japanese food at affordable prices. Service is fast (usually 10-15 minutes wait, but sometimes only 5!) And the place is very clean.

Very good spot for a date, or lunch/dinner with your parents. Also a great everyday lunch spot. I try to eat here once a week at least - when I need a healthy meal Asian style.

My favorite is the miso soup and side salad, add a rice and it's under $10. There are many food options in the $10-15 range for a full meal. My favorite soup is the vegetable udon noodle soup. I also like that they have soda pop available with no artificial sweeteners or high fructose corn syrup, so I can enjoy a soda sometimes without feeling too guilty about it.

The sushi is also great, and the teriyaki dishes yummy.

Best overall restaurant for healthy Asian food that isn't expensive and you can eat here any day, their open for business hours are consistent.“

“Love the buffet around the sushi bar! Best place to sit!“

“This is a great sushi restaurant! I highly recommend this sushi spot, great sushi, great service and the atmosphere is amazing. Definitely one of the best sushi spots in the Concord area. Try this place out! You won't be disappointed. 👍“

“Kiki Sushi was one of the best restaurants I’ve been to in ages. My friend has Celiac’s Disease, so I called ahead to verify their food prep practices & allergens. They were super helpful over the phone, even though I forgot and called during dinner rush. Everything seemed great, and when we arrived they had already had notes for our table & vetted every single thing on the table to ensure my friend was safely able to eat. Not only was the food safe and prepared fully gluten-free, but it may have been the best sushi I’ve ever had. And I LOVE sushi!! We also had veggie tempura and it was wasn’t overly battered or greasy, which seems common every other place I’ve been. The waiter was amazing, our drinks stayed full throughout the meal with the help of another gal on the floor, and we thoroughly enjoyed every single moment of Kiki Sushi. Thank you for an amazing evening out!“

“Taru Japanese Cuisine is a hidden gem and our go-to place for a celebratory family dinner.
The quality of fish and seafood and the generous size of sashimi are unmatched.
Always friendly stuff.
Try their hotate and hamachi nigiri.“

“We had a great experience the food is fresh and the steak is tender the salmon was just right. Your recommendation is forwarded to Facebook“

“It was just me when I went in, very polite server, I had just gotten back from a strenuous hike and was looking to eat good food. The food was delicious if I ever hiked up Mt. Diablo from bottom to peak again, I'll definitely come back here.“

“I have been going here for years. They have some of the best rolls in town. I always get the dragon roll, E14th roll, and the crunchy roll. So very yummy 😋“
