16 Best Sushi Bars near Pismo Beach

“I am a huge fan of Kokku! I crave their California rolls, best in the county. I like the texture, they make everything fresh and it shows. It comes with a super tasty slaw and the portion is great. It is located right near California Fresh in Pismo, just off the 4th St. exit of the 101. It is very clean, quiet and relaxed inside, with a couple of tables outside. The staff is fast and friendly. I am happy to support this fine local business.“

“Friendly, excellent service, food, parking, *****+“

“Yanagi Sushi & Grill has become a family favorite over the years.

Anytime we have something to celebrate, we reserve a teppan table and know we're in for an amazing evening of great food, entertainment, and fun. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, parking is easy, and the location is convenient.

If you're planning a visit, a reservation is required for the teppan tables—they're very popular and the restaurant can get quite busy.

Whether it's a special occasion or just a night out, Yanagi never disappoints.“

“This may be the best sushi in California. I’ll call it gourmet sushi.“

“friendly service, great atmosphere, awesome salmon belly, and good prices !“

“This place was very nice. The chef was really really nice. He made excellent recommendations. This was by far the best sushi restaurant that my wife and I have been to. The sushi was excellent but sitting at the sushi bar and talking to the chef was the best part. Really cool guy.“

“I had dinner in Paso a week ago. I noticed when I was looking on line at my bank withdraws they charged me twice. It was 12.60 and showed the next day the same charge. Whice was the same day we went in to tell them. We only ate there the one time. We went in to talk to a manager and he wasn't there. The girl working called him. (The owner)He wasn't very good with his customer service. He wanted us to come back the next day at 4 and he'd look at it. He should have told her to just take care of us. I had printed out my statement to show them. We've been eating there for as long as they've been open. I left irritated, it wasn't a 50.00 charge. It was under 13.00. Long story short I went to my bank and they stopped the second charge. Now I will only use cash if I go in there. The owner should have just taken care of us! Food is always good. Ate in the one in San Luis Obispo and they were good also. Just disappointed how he didn't handle it.“

“Great food and great service“

“I had such a wonderful dining experience here recently. The quality of the food was outstanding, especially the seared tuna dish topped with a beautiful flower garnish.

Every bite was fresh and full of flavor. I was particularly impressed by how neatly the rolls were prepared. It was a lovely meal and I will definitely be back.“

“This is an amazing hole in the wall that has obvious regulars. The sushi is extremely good and high quality, the sushi bar staff are super stars. They accommodate children so well and give that extra special touch for kids. I am not from here but if I was i would eat here as often as possible just for the food and lovely staff“

“I had a great experience here! The staff was incredibly kind and patient. I accidentally thought my online order had gone through when it actually hadn’t, and they took the time to help me figure everything out without making me feel bad.

On top of that, my food came out surprisingly fast. I ordered two sushi rolls and a miso soup, and everything was ready in about 10 minutes. The service was friendly, the process was smooth, and they made the whole experience stress free.

Thank you for the excellent customer service I’ll definitely be coming back!“

“Excellent sushi , surprised by the presentation - great server , Sage“

“Food is always amazing and extremely tasty. The waitress is super knowledgeable and extremely helpful, she is always super polite and remembers faces. But that could just be me because we go there a lot lol The food is comforting, the atmosphere is pleasant and calm. I can't say enough good things about this restaurant!“

“This was my first time there and it was good , nice atmosphere and plenty of Choices on the menu . I had the poke bowl even though it was good I felt the tuna was not very fresh almost tasted like it was frozen . Not really what I expect from a restaurant like this . My partner had one of the noodle bowls and that was absolutely delicious enough for two people no doubt . Our table was very wobbly and not very comfortable . They had complimentary lemon water and cucumber water which as absolutely delicious ! I definitely would come back again and try some other items on their menu“
