8 Best Japanese Restaurants near Arcata

“We've loved Tomo for nearly 30 years. The veggie sushi options are always great, with the inside out roll with tempura yam our favorite. The Humboldt Hunny is also excellent, as is the Buddha Belly. The salad is always a work of art, fresh and tasty with a bit of both house dressings. (I ask for them on the side.) We've never had a problem here and invariably leave feeling happy and nourished on all levels by this longtime local favorite.“

“Today I finally stopped and I wasn’t disappointed. The food tasted amazing and the food wasn’t over priced. I had a sushi roll and the ck and rice bowl. 10/10 I was in and out within 4 minutes. Great for a good quick lunch break. I will be back 😋“

“What a great sushi place! So glad we stumbled upon this out of the way super tasty off the beaten path sushi place in Arcata. It’s a mom n pop shop atmosphere but the food is fine dining style. We both got a roll with salmon in it, can’t remember the names but they were both delicious. The Miso soup, tempura veggies and edamame are all bomb too. Made a mistake of ordering three sakis, they came in a nice size bottle with more than enough for the three of us. Portions are generous and the food is fresh. Got the seaweed salad this trip and it was great, nice roasted sesame flavor. This is now our favorite place to get sushi in Arcata“

“Best sushi in Humboldt! Great environment and the service is always good.“

“Had dinner at RoofTop and everything about it was great. the view over old town is lovely. ordered sushi and it was excellent. tried the pan-seared scallops and a spicy-tuna roll; everything tasted fresh and came out nicely plated. The rooftop patio makes it a fun spot even on cooler evenings, but book ahead if you can (it can get very busy). Friendly staff and a decent drink list. would absolutely come back“
