Mikuni | Concord

My wife and I have been here about 5 times and EVERY single time we dine in we get told our server is on break for 30 minutes and someone else will be covering for them. Then it usually takes about 20 minutes to even place an order. Hoping it’s just bad luck because we love the food but it’s been consistently bad on the service side.

4 of us ordered bento boxes, unfortunately half the order was mixed up and it took about 15 minutes to correct the order. My friends claimed the same tempura was served because it no longer had a crunchy texture when it arrived back to our table. The waiters were very attentive, and once we ate the food was delicious.

This was a great place to have dinner. We were told we had to wait 40 minutes but actually got seated within 20 minutes. The service was great. We had Lucia as our server and she was patient and kind, when we kept ordering ginger. The food was great, no complaints. We will definitely be coming back.

Mauricio our server was amazing. This was mine and my daughter's first time there. I ordered a bento lunch special originally with the tempura veggies and shrimp. Something made me ask about the veggies. I have a mushroom allergy. They have mushrooms in the tempura. Come to find out all the fried items use the same oil. I had to change my order, but Mauricio was patient and explained everything to me to help my decision. He is a gem. I was able to adjust my order with no issues.

This place never disappoints. They have the freshest sushi and the musalini noodles with shrimp is my favorite menu item on there. The service is fast and friendly as well.

Look, I've been going to mikuni for over a decade starting with the restaurants in Elk Grove and downtown Sacramento. I love Mikuni. BUT they should be ashamed by their prices now. Went to the Concord Mikuni for my birthday. Every single dish was half the size of what it used to be, and double the price. Probably the equivalent of 6 full size asparagus stems for $14. The tiniest sashimi appetizer I have ever seen for $18. Technically it was 7 or 8 pieces, but it was really 3. Every single dish was tiny. I can't justify paying those prices for what is served. I feel sad to say I have eaten my last meal at Mikuni after decades as a loyal customer.

Some of us liked our food. Sushi and tonkatsu were well regarded compared to other Japanese restaurants. Bento box was average. Nothing special. Patio bench seating was very uncomfortable.

I always get the Iron Chef Combo. She always gets the bento box, usually with beef curry and karage chicken. Always excellent, as are the Gyoza.
