I love how Max and crew have resurrected Serika. The food is very good as is the service. Max always makes us feel like old friends.

The chefs were rude, and my order was not ready on time. Overall, it was a disappointing experience

New owners took over the place a couple of years ago and it’s 180 degree change for the positive. The food is delicious and super fresh. The presentation is artful and appealing. The service is wonderfully attentive. My friends and I have been meeting for lunch for years and seemed to have chosen Serika as our go to spot. I highly recommend it. The old Serika is a distant memory.

While Serika has been around for quite some time, new ownership has made this our favorite sushi spot. Excellent nigiri, sashimi and plenty of rolls on the menu (both the classics and the more creative). My favorite app is the hamachi carpaccio with avocado, jalapeño and ponzu. Service is great and food comes out fast. I also appreciate that they limit take out when they are too busy so they can prioritize dine-in customers.

We went to Serika for an early dinner Thursday. We were met with a friendly greeting and seated quickly at the sushi bar. The chef was very friendly and talked with while being bust preparing food. We had Nigiri Sushi. There was a good selection of very fresh, high quality sushi. Max has a knack of adding the perfect garnishes and seasoning to each selection. Although we didn’t try it at this visit, there was a broad selection of rolls, salads, appetizers, and a variety of japanese main course dishes available. Wonderful experience. We plan on returning often.

When the original owner and his wife, both from Japan, decided to retire this cozy restaurant changed hands a few times. Needless to say everything went downhill until...this current owner took over about a year ago. From Mongolia, with a refined sensibility to service and attention to quality, this Japanese Sushi restaurant checks all the boxes. Appetizers, Noodle ramen dishes, Bento Boxes, Tempura (fantastic), Nigiri and Sashimi (also fantastic) are some of the best you will ever taste in the Bay Area. Priced in a way that the proprietor can pay help, rent and make a decent living, but not as high as so many other restaurants of any genre. You can dine for $$60 a couple, or $120 if you love Sushi as I do. Return for all the other offerings on the menu and enjoy Sushi and hot dishes without feeling cheated or deprived

We had a lovely meal. The fish was so fresh and the presentation of all types of food ordered was lovely. They were a little short handed, but were attentive and extremely welcoming. We will definitely return.

New ownership shines with the quality of sushi - fresh, creative, exceptional variety. Have tried almost everything on the menu ranging from
sashimi, nigiri, roles, to traditional Japanese dishes. Does not disappoint. Outstanding service. Best sushi in the Lamorinda area.
