A very nice sushi place in Berkeley. The owners are so nice and welcoming. Sushi were really good and tasty, products felt very fresh. The menu is also very clear and simple making it all very simple and fast. 100% recommend.
HORRIBLE HORRIBLE SUSHI. DENIED SERVICE and when I finally received food it was disgusting. Really really do not recommend.

This place is the comfort food place of all comfort food places. Whenever I'm feeling sad or need a pick-me-up, I know that Katsumi will never disappoint. I always order either the California Roll or the Crunch California (fried CR with unagi sauce) and it's always delicious. It comes with ginger and wasabi, and the uncle working there is so nice. He's always friendly, smiles, and had the food out in a heartbeat. While you can't eat inside (it's in Asian Ghetto), there's ample space outside. If you go to Berkeley and haven't been here you have to becuase it's by far the BEST sushi spot at Berkeley :)

Pork chop bbq was just not a good quality meat, no marinated meat, no spices, just grilled from frozen. Portion of rice and salad it came with.were microscopical and bland, no taste in general. NO RECOMMEND. There are way too many good options right around the corner.

Reasonable price, good service, very convenient to campus, and quick to pick up! $13.25 dragon roll was delicious and filling :)

The sushi and soup are good. I like this place although it needs the owner pay attention to the cleanness. It seems a little messy and you see dirt and dust every where. But the food is nice and decent

Sushi is the best I have ever tasted in my life. I got the Californian roll and they put lots of crab and it’s really good.
For the price, I really can't complain about Katsumi Sushi. I paid $10.75 for a Philadelphia roll (salmon, avocado, and cream cheese) which is a steal considering it's location and fare. Typically, I see Phillie rolls go for 13 and above in Berkeley, so it's a nice change of pace to see something below that price caliber. Do note that their Phillie roll has a scant amount of salmon accompanied by huge globs of cream cheese, so I imagine this is how they keep their rolls so affordable. From what I could tell by the meager portion of salmon, the quality of the raw fish is actually pretty fresh-not overly fishy or slimy. The rolls are pretty decent, though don't expect a generous portion of raw fish with your rolls. The quality's just a notch above Safeway sushi which is by no means a compliment. But, again, you're not coming to this restaurant for its outstanding merit or luxury. This is made known by the lack of interior decor with its only decoration being its humble sign outside the establishment. Katsumi Sushi is truly a no-frills sushi establishment that does cheap sushi. granted, it does it quite well.

Whenever I had a rough day during undergrad, I'd treat myself to a lion king roll at Katsumi sushi and it would cure my soul

I created this account simply to leave this review because of how awful the service was. I ordered online and they gave it to someone else without confirmation. The man was very confrontational and rude, yelling at me and accusing me of scamming them. DO NOT COME HERE IF YOU VALUE GOOD SERVICE

I ordered the veggie udon and it was perfect!! It was made fresh in front of me and it was so flavorful. Highly recommend this place for a late night bite.
