Consistently good. They have plates/meals for those who don't care for sushi. Even a happy hour menu.

Great sustainable sushi place. Happy hour and tofu Tuesdays are favs.

Best sushi for miles!

why does it take so long to make a simple roll, oh maybe because they are serving the customers at the sushi bar rather than prioritizing orders in the order they're made

They have a whole vegan section of the menu and they are open later than a lot of other places that are similar. Love it <3

Hands down the best sushi I've ever had. The vegan menu is expansive and innovative!

We got 1 roll, after 1 bite it tasted off. So i smelled the roll and it smelled strongly of stagnant water. We didn't eat any more of it. Our stomachs got all queezy before we even got to our car. We pointed out out to waitress and it didn't even get comped and i know she knew it smelled off too cuz she took it to the chef who argued he cut it the day before. But it wasn't a bad fish smell it was stagnant rag smell. It was horrible. Edit update later in the night after coming here out credit card was skimmed and attemptedto be used. Jokes on whoever did it we never get out much so it's between here and a gas station that it happened. If i found out it was any employee here targeting us because we complained, i will respond accordingly.

They were out of most of the things we ordered, shrimp, prawns, oysters, masu kama and I found two hairs in the miso.
They have a ton of clearly marked vegan appetizers, mains, and sushi rolls. They also give you complimentary miso soup before your meal.We loved the vegan sushi rolls we ordered. I can't remember the names, but one was citrus and super refreshing, and the other was just fantastic all around. The atmosphere was also very cute. This is a great place to go if you are a vegan. We also got the veggie tempura, it was okay, but we've had way better. If we went back we'd skip it and get another roll instead!

Overall, this is a good place to go for sushi! However, the devil is in the details...I love that Aonami is following covid safety, first off. It made the overall visit that much better. Second, the service was fantastic! Our waiter was kind, attentive, and well-intentioned at worst, as she kindly explained what yakisoba is to my Japanese mother ?The food, overall, was very good! With the exception of one roll, I didn't really need shoyu for anything because the fish was either that good or the complimentary sauces were delicious enough. Unfortunately, one roll was off, taste tested by both me and my mother. We have different palates, so something's definitely up if we're both making a face. However, the roll was taken back without question, and we were offered to have it replaced or refunded; thank you so much again for that!The only things I wasn't thrilled about were the shoyu and the overall vibe.They have the low sodium shoyu and regular shoyu as options, which is great! My mother and I prefer the green capped low sodium taste to regular Kikkoman. That said, I can guarantee someone either made a mistake or is intentionally cutting corners because the shoyu tasted exactly the same from both bottles. Additionally, the shoyu was not clean. Before we even had our food, there were particles (like dried, old shoyu... I hope) sticking to the sides of the dish.And, I know it sounds ridiculous, but while the staff are wonderful, it just feels like a place pretentious people go to have decent sushi. Yes, this sushi is good, but it's nothing to write home about. While the creative rolls can be fun and I appreciate that you can order a roll without an ingredient, everything feels very catered to a certain demographic. A lot of the rolls have cream cheese, jalepeño, mango, and/or masago in them with a ton of sauce and anything we got that was supposed to be spicy simply... Was not. Sometimes you just want a regular ol' spicy tuna roll, y'know?Again, overall, this is a good place and I'll still rec it to others. If you're even a bit of a sushi snob like me, try somewhere else. I, personally, will not be returning.
