“I appreciate the they maintained high quality of sashimi, freshness of fish and beautiful cut according to the nature of the fish.“

“A random, last minute find on a Friday night with no wait and can accommodate a party of two with an infant in a carseat.
Quaint and no frills restaurant with omakase. Our omakase sashimi order was about 107 dollars, a bit pricey and presentation was not very impressive but every bite was so fresh! Their miso soup was quite delightful, better than most miso soup I’ve had.

Kid-friendliness: We brought our infant in a carseat in, placed the carseat on a chair and tucked it between the wall and the table. I see other families with small kids dining comfortably there too.“

“The patio dining is a great option but I heard the bar calling. A seat presented itself as I approached and prompt, professional service enhanced every drop of beer, both before and after lunch.“

“Recommend getting a reservation before going. Service was a bit lacking, no welcome, and a bit rude. Luckily, most everything is automated. Food was decent. There was one issue with us not getting one of our orders but it was eventually resolved by staff, albeit again, not in the most friendly manner. Fish seemed fresher than another location of this chain so will probably return.“

“Good selection of healthy foods. Their beef is so tender . Fried rice is to die for. The chef Heli is so professional, very precise and amiable. Our waitresses/server , Maya, was so pleasant and attentive to guests . Next time I go back I have to try their seafood selections. My only complaint is the location . It should be out there along Stevens Creek like in Santana Row rather than hidden in that dark corner of the complex. But definitely I will recommend it to my friends.“

“The overall experience was good, the food was tasty and the flow for Omakase was decent. We added the Uni which total per person was $200. I would love it if they add a few more nigiri to the Omakase menu alone is $150 per person. Is it worth it? Maybe for special occasions.“

“This is the best sushi restaurant in Palo Alto! We have been to a few of them on California Avenue, and the quality of the food and its affordability at Kanji is certainly the best among them all. We ordered the 15 pieces sashimi platter and the cut of the fish was so thick and satisfying. The sweet shrimps were also very worth it, it was so fresh and they even fry the heads for you. Will come back next time to try their breakfast!“

“The BEST Sushi in the Bay Area- FOR SURE“

“Katsu is a refined, intimate omakase experience that redefines what it means to dine with intention. With only eight seats at the chef's counter, the chef-owner, Katsu Maruyama, treats everyone as a special guest.
The omakase menu evolves with the seasons; the meal's pacing is thoughtful, allowing diners to savor each bite while engaging with Chef Katsu, who shares insights into his techniques and ingredients. The fish is incredibly fresh (often flown in from Japan), and the rice is perfectly seasoned.
The atmosphere is calm and minimalist, allowing you to focus entirely on the food.“

“Have been going to this place lately. Fresh and delicious. The price is pretty good for 1 combo with sides.“

“Shaemir was our sever and she did a FANTASTIC job. I had the caterpillar roll and my partner had the lion king roll. Both were great choices! Personally, I recommend the lion king roll as well as the edamame appetizer. The wait time was super quick (as long as you don’t mind eating outside - they do have heaters) and the atmosphere was also great! 10/10 would recommend.“

“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.“

“Hamachi shots were insane. The tofu was some of the best I’ve ever had, super soft and fried just a bit for the perfect thin, crispy texture. The sauce for the tofu was also so yum!!! Crab was pretty good, though both the crab and tofu got soggy quickly due to the sauce. The o toro nigiri was honestly the best thing from this dinner. SO. TENDER. Salmon toro and Ebodai (butter fish) were also tender, but the o toro was unmatched. Honestly could’ve passed on the yellowtail maki, it was very rice-y but still good. Yuzu cheesecake was a great way to end this magical meal. We are moved.“

“This sushi spot is down the street from my house and it's quickly becoming a favorite of mine. Granted I usually come in for lunch and order a bento box. I love the spicy chicken teriyaki, veggie tempura and California rolls. Their Chile. Matsu was good but I prefer the teriyaki. Their miso soup is tasty.

Restaurant is typical sushi restaurant size. They may accommodate larger parties with notice. The art on the wall is movies, action figures, and things of that nature

I haven't tried too much outside of that so I will have to order more when I go next time. I want to order specialty rolls. Will update the review after the fact.“

“First time after a referral and it did not disappoint! The food was fresh and delicious. The atmosphere was clean and modern. The staff were so nice and came by multiple times to check on us. I had the Happy Together roll and a Saba hand roll which were so full of flavor. Will definitely be coming back!“

“Awesome take out live them“

“Love their foods, so delicious and fancy will bring my family & friends there again!!“

“All the offerings are tasty. Sashimi is my favorite but I have enjoyed all the rolls as well. Friendly family service.“

“Growing up in Saratoga, there weren’t many casual asian dining places nearby and Sushi Heaven has always been a staple restaurant for my family for weekend night out dinners.
Sushi Heaven is not traditional Japanese, and has a variety of rolls that are fun to choose from and also has great bento boxes.

They also reasonably price Toro and if you’re lucky, you get decent cuts.

They take reservations and are busy during dinner times so call ahead or there is a waiting list.

Dietary restrictions: Gluten free options“

“The food tastes great! There are a lot of options, so even if you don't like sushi there's plenty of options, like miso and udon. The staff are always patient and attentive. There are many affordable roll options, and the menu is decently priced for the area as well. Great place to go with a partner or a group of friends.“

“The owner and staff were incredibly kind and treated me like family. The tempura was the best I’ve ever had crispy, flavorful, and absolutely delicious! The sushi was fresh and tasted amazing, and the sushi boat was especially fresh and delightful. I highly recommend this place“

“New in town and looking to find a new favorite sushi place. And I think this is it. Everything tastes like really good quality. A good selection and the service was great. Prices were reasonable for the Bay area. It seemed like the staff also knew quite a bit of the the people who came in, perhaps as regulars“

“The best sushi ever, can’t wait to go back to San José to eat there Best regards Charlie Marco“

“My all-time favorite place for Sushi and Sashimi. A great place to go with a crowd that is willing to share. Everything tastes so good.“

“Great sushi and sashimi! ❤️“

“The sushi is so fresh it melts in your mouth. It’s so good. It’s a quaint almost hole in the wall type place but it’s clean and the people are friendly and attentive. It’s a definite must if you like sushi. Prices are reasonable and a tiny bit high on some dishes but it’s worth it. I will be going back again and I’m sure lots of times 😋“

“Good food good happy hour“

“Fantastic atmosphere, I was so surprised as I did not expect such a cool experience just from looking at the place from the outside. Outside gives nice and elegant too, but the inside decor is stellar.

Great food, prices!

Salmon Sashimi was so fresh and nicely cut, very generous sushi special - eel was great -- , gyoza fried perfectly, niku udon delicious.

Fast service great atmosphere!“

“Great sushi! Must get the omakase nigiri or Toyosu special!“

“Ordered take out online. Got a few rolls, miso soup and an appetizer. Everything was good. Provided soy, chopsticks, napkins. Staff was friendly. Tight parking lot at the In N Out next door can cause chaos if their drivethru line gets long. Friendly staff. Clean. Happy with everything. Will be back.“

“6/3/2025

Mikado
161 Main St.
Los Altos, CA 94022

I was walking and exploring DT Los Altos on an early Tuesday evening and stumbled on this somewhat hidden place (obscured by vegetation). I am more of a Bento Box and Entree over sushi guy and they had a strong menu of these selections. Parking in the surrounding city lots was ample but gets tight during high lunch and dinner times.

It's a long and narrow clean contemporary booth and sushi bar setup. I was seated promptly and ordered the Calamari Tempura Dinner. The okay salad and above average Miso soup were brought promptly. The squid consisted of long tubes with a crunchy panko breading, no tentacles. This was very tender, indicating the cook knows not to overcook it and turn it into rubber. The accompanying tartar sauce was okay but I would prefer a spicy cocktail sauce. If you like long squid tubes, this place is for you, it's kind of unique.

Service was good, obvious attention to detail and worth a repeat for other entrees.“

“Went here last night with our family for a birthday. Reservation for 7 was ready when we arrived, and seated quickly. Nice intimate atmosphere. Wonderful, attentive service. We felt well looked after all night. The food was beautiful and delicious. In particular, the 14 year old said that the fried soft shell crab appetizer was the "best bite of my life." Our host made suggestions, and we let her surprise us with a few extras, all of which were fantastic. 10/10 on all counts.

We used to go to a little family place in New Haven, called "Jerry-san's" which our whole family loved and was our default for birthdays, New Year's, etc... As we were leaving one of the teenagers said "That's our new Jerry-San's," which is high praise, indeed.

Dietary restrictions: Menu is well labeled with options for GF, etc... on many dishes...“

“One of our regular sushi spot in south bay. I’ve been coming here for 20 years and it never disappoints. The staff is extremely friendly and always remembers our favorites! I can’t wait for firefly squid season!

They serve fresh fish and always have a variety of options. This is not a typical over the top roll house if that is what you’re looking for. Come here for their nigiri and chirashi bowls they have always been solid!“

“From the warm greeting everyone receives when walking through the door to the attentive and super friendly service, this place is amazing! The sushi was outstanding… hands down the best sushi I’ve ever had! The texture, taste and presentation was top notch. Wish there was a location on the east coast!“

“Their sushi rolls are fabulous every time. I love the Dragon roll and Paul’s roll. Consistent and fast service every time.“

“I think it's good to be able to eat a lunch box for this price considering the location.
They also serve brown rice tea for free. I had the lunch bento box with a choice of 2 sides, $17.50. You can choose sushi rolls or nigiri sushi on the side, but there's plenty of white rice, so I personally recommend choosing a side dish. Personally, I'm concerned about the quality of the white rice. There's nothing wrong with vinegared rice, but that white rice is a no-no in Japanese food. The female staff member was very kind and managed the whole thing by herself. I think there was one craftsman who seemed to be Japanese.“

“Mmmmmm, so good. And open for lunch. I had the um, I don't remember but it was kind of like an everything roll. Accompanied by two cold Asahi - fuhgeddaboudit. Service was quick for it being a busy lunch spot. Staff is super nice. Definitely check out next time in Palo Alto. I'm addicted to sushi. Cheers!“

“Excellent service, tasty food and pleasant ambiance. We will be back. Loved my sushi and my husband loved his teriyaki chicken.“

“This is my absolute favorite spot to get food in downtown Mountain View since it opened! The staff is unbelievably friendly and the service is incredible! Swan who is the manager has taken the time to know my name, has great recommendations from the food and drink menus. Everything about this restaurant is something to write home about. I can’t recommend it enough!“

“Great service and food from small business restaurant. Their sashimi and sushi rolls so delicious and fresh. I like their teriyaki sauce with any type of meat 🥩 you want. I enjoy their grilled salmon. Love their miso soup 🍜 not very salty. Will come back and try other food next time.“

“😋Best super fresh sushi, without spending what is typically outrageous prices for this area. Good portions, delicious sushi, and really everything on their menu. We go back again and again.“

“larga la espera pero valió la pena muy rica la comida“

“Whether it’s a date night with my girlfriend or a big family dinner for a special occasion, Okayama is a reliable spot for well made sushi rolls and bento boxes that will satisfy any cravings. Staff is very helpful and quick to assist with any questions or requests“

“Our family has been to Sumo many times because it's a family favorite. Our kids love the kids meals (rice, miso soup, and salmon or chicken teriyaki) and the sushi train, where we usually pick a few rolls and mochi for dessert. We love the variety of the menu and freshness of the food most of the time. Depending on the day, the texture of the rice can be improved and sometimes the offerings on the sushi train are limited, but the excellent service more than makes up for it. The restaurant is full of regulars that the staff remembers. A few favorites from the menu include the tempura ramen, all of the rolls, the agedashi tofu and the mochi ice cream. Highly recommended as a family friendly establishment that serves above average food, a quiet and fun ambiance, and great service.“

“The best sushi ever, can’t wait to go back to San José to eat there Best regards Charlie Marco“

“From the first moment you arrive in that place team give you an agreeable feeling. Very hospitable team, it is a happy restaurant to enjoy with friends or with your date. delicious cuisine, professional chef, decent price and excellent service. Warmly recommended.“

“Best foods , great services 🥰“

“Amazing food! Love every item is fresh and delicious . extremely friendly staff! A must try!“

“The sushi here is excellent! The fish is incredibly fresh—firm in texture, never mushy, and with no fishy smell. The rolls are also delicious, perfectly balanced in flavor. I especially recommend the roll with avocado and grilled eel—it’s a must-try“
