About Amami Sushi

Amami Sushi is a busy restaurant known for its friendly service, although there might be a wait during busy times. The menu is digital, and paper menus are sometimes offered after feedback. Guests can enjoy a variety of sushi, including nigiri, with some dishes like the Hamachi jalapeño appetizer providing just the right amount of heat. The chef’s choice omakase, which includes 10 pieces for $42, is highly recommended and offers a generous selection with long slices of fish. The restaurant is a great place for celebrations, as many customers have celebrated birthdays here, and the atmosphere seems suitable for family gatherings or date nights. The fish is fresh and delicious, and the service is prompt and friendly. Other popular items include the beef teriyaki dinner, which is well-prepared, and the Chicken Kara-Age, enjoyed by all. Some dishes, like the Tai Carpaccio, can be overly sweet and are not always well-received, and the Kanpachi Kama, while different from the usual yellowtail, is considered just okay and not worth repeating for some. The Santa Barbara uni remains a standout dish, and guests appreciate the late opening hours. Portions are generous, the wasabi is fresh, and overall, the restaurant offers good value for money, with satisfying meals around $40 per person. Many customers plan to return for more sushi delights, finding Amami Sushi a place that elevates the sushi experience beyond the California roll and Lion King roll.
