Very reasonable price for quality and location.
A little gem in the Monterey area. It's one of my favs.

Takara Sushi Japanese Restaurant is a cozy, family-run eatery that offers a traditional Japanese dining experience. This husband-and-wife owned restaurant is a hidden gem, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that makes you feel like you're dining in a friend's home. The chef, a traditional "Itamae" or "Shokunin", serves up fresh and delicious sushi, sashimi, and other Japanese dishes made with high-quality ingredients. The menu features a range of options, including maki, nigiri, tempura, and bento boxes, all expertly prepared and presented. The service is top-notch, with the wife handling everything from taking orders to cooking and serving, with a warm and attentive touch. Be prepared for a leisurely paced dinner, as the restaurant is small and the service is personalized. With only six tables, it's best to arrive early or be prepared to wait, but the reward is a truly special dining experience. Overall, Takara Sushi is a must-visit for anyone looking for authentic Japanese cuisine in a cozy and intimate setting.
