went on a Sunday evening for dinner. got the dinner bento box— tuna sashimi, sake sashimi, dashi tofu. soooo good with the salad and side of rice. also very happy I ordered the hot tea— very cozy and comforting. they were kind to give me miso soup and edamame on the house, which was also very good and generous. service was prompt and servers were friendly. all that for $30ish! reasonable prices, high quality food.

Meiko sushi gave an incomplete pick up order twice.I didn’t complain or call them the first time as my family and I go there often however recently I ordered an item from dinner menu and was sent an appetizer instead and I charged full price for the dinner item.
I called them and I was given a number to call a person called Roger who said they will issue me a refund however it has been 5 days and I have not received any refunds.

So, after watching a flag football in the cold last night, my niece was playing in, we were hungry and thinking about having sushi and Agadashi Tofu and found this amazing place, Meiko Sushi! We were greeted nicely by the server there and ordered Bento Boxes 🍱 and sushi! We were served the warm tea and miso soup in the beginning, then dinner. The food was ABSOLUTELY delicious 😋 I can’t say enough the server last night was really gracious to us and really impressed by this! I think we were only people there in the restaurant and we felt very special by the food and the server very well! Definitely come to this restaurant!! You will not be disappointed!! Great food and excellent service!! Thank you 🙏🏽 😊❤️❤️

Very friendly service. It feels like you are getting the family treatment with generous portions and deliciously fresh fish. I highly recommend going with friends because you'll need the help to finish the food haha

Delish food! I really enjoyed my bento box. I had teriyaki salmon, mixed tempura, and gyoza served with rice, salad and miso soup. They have a fried crab appetizer and a corn batter appetizer both are very good. Their sushi is fresh and delicious. The owner, Duc, is friendly and enjoys his customers. The cooking and wait staff are friendly and efficient. I love this restaurants decor. They have private booths perfect for business/romantic lunches and dinners plus regular booths. The place is well organized and clean. I look forward to the pleasant atmosphere each time I go. I know you will enjoy the food and ambiance as well.

Once entered, we were immediately greeted with a wonderful smile, and they were happily to assist us. After being escorted to our table, which was delightfully fun to experience; because it had a Japanese sliding door style that added to the pleasant atmosphere of the interior. The service we received was outstanding. Everyone who came to our table to assist was pleasant and helpful!
Now the food:
Octopus Salad - 5 ☆ The cold salad had a lot of flavors, refreshing from the cucumbers, and the Octopus was just right not to chewy.
Grill Squid - 4.5 ☆ It was deliciously good, but I believe the spices that were used may have been a bit powerful. But overall, it was still delightful with lemon and the spicy mayo.
House salad/Miso soup - 5 ☆ When going to a sushi place, you can tell by their salads and miso soups. Overall, both were amazing and rewarding, in my opinion. Especially the house salad. The dressing they used for their salad was addictively delicious and flavorful.
Kids meal bento - 5 ☆ The size of the portions was surprisingly large. He was happy and was full. He had leftovers for the next following day! The chicken teriyaki were cooked perfectly and weren't overbearing saucy.
Bubble Roll (no fish eggs)- 5 ☆ Yes, Yes and YES! I really enjoyed this roll. I would highly recommend this roll. It was very light but yet had an amazing texture and taste. This was my favorite.
49er (no fish eggs) - 5 ☆ This roll was delicious as well. The tuna inside was different from the other 49er rolls we've had before. So, the red tuna made it a bit more smokey taste to it. Which resulted in a great blend with the salmon on top. I would recommend it if you enjoy tuna with salmon.
We also received a pleasant surprise of a complimentary corn tempura!! The whole group really enjoyed this side dish. It was new and different for all of us. Perfectly fried and battered corn. Soooo good.
Overall, the whole experience was unbelievably fun and enjoyable. The atmosphere and the service were A++++, and the food was fresh and packed with flavor. I will definitely be back and will recommend this place to others.
::: Oh, sorry, side note - Warning: they do add a hot sauce fee of a 1$ 😅 but for us, it was worth it. We enjoy our Sriracha too much :::

Meiko Sushi has been a trusted go-to spot for our karate school in Pleasanton for over 12 years. Just down the street and a few minutes from our dojo, it’s become more than just a restaurant.
The food is consistently fresh, the flavors are excellent, and the service is always top-notch. What really stands out is how welcoming and accommodating the staff is, especially when we bring in large groups of students and families. Whether it’s a post-belt test celebration, a dinner with visiting instructors, or a casual team outing.
We’ve even had guests from the US—high-level martial artists who know great sushi from going to Japan for decades—say this place is top-tier. That’s high praise, and it’s well-earned.
If you're looking for delicious, friendly atmosphere, Meiko Sushi is the perfect spot. It’s been part of our dojo culture for over a decade, and we highly recommend it.
Meiko Sushi has been one of my favorite sushi spots in Pleasanton for over 15 years, and it’s easy to see why we keep coming back. The food is always fresh, the flavors are always spot on, and the service is excellent.
What truly sets Meiko apart is its welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere. We've brought our kids here countless times, and the staff is always warm and patient. As a local karate dojo owner just a few minutes away, I've made it a tradition to bring my students here for over a decade—it's become part of our dojo culture. Whether it's a quick family dinner or a celebration with students, Meiko always delivers.
The quality has never disappointed, which is rare for a restaurant we've frequented this long. I’ve even hosted visiting martial arts instructors—people who train in Japan regularly and know great sushi—and they’ve all said Meiko is top-notch.
If you're looking for reliable, delicious sushi in Pleasanton with great service and a welcoming vibe for families and groups alike, Meiko Sushi is the place to go. Highly recommended! 👍

At first, everything looked really nice and delicious, but upon eating, it was clear that the food was not great. The sashimi was not fresh and the night after eating at the restaurant for both lunch and dinner we had really upset stomachs with lots of vomiting and diarrhea. The waitresses were kind, but the food took forever to arrive, and even just the water took like 15 minutes.
