This place has a good variety to choose from. I ordered rainbow and it had a strange aftertaste, which is probably from the crab mixture inside the roll. The rolls that my friend has ordered were fine and didn’t have that aftertaste. The fish was fresh, the food was ready pretty fast. Service is long, the waiter didn’t check on us after he brought the food for a while. Overall, it’s worth trying but service should be improved.

Not a good experience. You’re forced to tip a certain amount (atleast 18%). If you tip anything below that, the waiter would create a scene.

We tried this restaurant the first time . I ordered two sushis, Caterpillar and California roll. The former was a big disappointment because there was too little unagi in the rolls. Compared with any sushi restaurants I’ve been too, I gave it a maximum of 3/5. If they are so skimpy on the main ingredient (unagi), I am afraid other sushis will suffer for the same treatment, My husband got a bento box. The salmon was too sweet and not tender. This restaurant is on Castro street, downtown Mountain View. I wouldn’t recommend it based on the quality and taste even though they gave free salad and miso soup ( the soup 3/5). So everything is 3/5. Note to the restaurant: I am willing to pay more for quality not quantity. Service is 5/5

We were excited to come here during the Mountain View arts festival - ordered 4 different lunch specials.
However, the salad was by far the best part of the meal. It's Sunday lunchtime, so perhaps they weren't on their game, but the fish tasted funky (as a frequent sushi eater and lover of sushi).
For an example of the low-quality sushi, see the attached photo with weirdly butchered pieces of lemon rind sprinkled on it, mashed avocado, and odd shape...
When we asked if they had full-sodium soy sauce -- I had to go inside to ask because the waiter was not nearby for a while -- they told me they only had packets (the to go kind). Weird, but fine. Not 2 minutes later, another water brings out a container of full-sodium sauce while seating another table.
It wasn't *terrible* but it's probably in the bottom 10% of Bay Area sushi restaurants in my opinion.

A go-to for to-go sushi. The food delicious, well-portioned, and beautifully presented. Consistently impressive.

Downtown Moutain View . Nice outside area so if no notices you right away, you might need to get their attention. Sushi was fresh and especially liked the smoked salmon. It was my first time there and would definitely go back.

Customer Service: 4.25/5 Left us alone but was helpful when we needed help. Classic Japanese restaurant service. Also held our spot on the waitlist when our full party wasn’t here
Ambiance: 4.25/5 Classic Japanese restaurant vibes. There were some anime characters on the walls lmaooo. Rengoku was there
Food: 4.5/5 The sushi fish was really fresh ugh my mouth was getting umami overloaddd. Baked rolls were interesting concept def gives diff feel cuz it’s more cooked. Still p good! They gave us fried shrimp (not tempura but part of omakase) but literally ate nothing it was all shell…
The sushi here wasn't great. The sushi had a strange after taste, and the sashimi was cut too thick imo. The chicken bites and the agadeshi tufo were served way too hot, literally boiling inside, I burnt one of my fingers pulling the chicken open. The waitress was really cold, I wouldn't say rude but just no smile and face like let's get on with it. The place itself also needs some updating. The only things that tasted well are the adameme and the agadeshi tofu. I won't come back here.

They said they are closed but their hours say different.

Ended up going in about 30 minutes before closing in the middle of the week. We were headed to SF to pick up family from the airport. Service was great.The foodd was amazing, especially the Soy King Roll. Had very fresh avocado and even fresher tasting Salmon! They were polite and not pushy about letting us know they were closing soon. At closing, they did their best to do the things they needed to before asking us to pay our bill so they could close registers down. We enjoyed everything we ordered. If we pass through this area again, we will definitely be back.

Excellent sushi and fast service! We had the caterpillar roll, spicy tuna roll, rock roll, and salmon sushi; all fresh and delicious and made quite fast. Service was great and very attentive. Outside seating is very nice. We’ve been twice now, love it. Thanks!
