“very good service..food is bomb! so Delicious 😋“

“The food was soooo good. I went with family and we got the Pork Yaki Udon, Veggie Fried Rice and Spicy beef Ramen. The portions are huge!! (Which i did not know as this was my first time, luckily I was hungry). Definitely recommend 👌“

“Been a 10 year follower of owner Billy and his sushi creations! He set the bar high so when I moved to St. Petersburg, FL I have yet to meet his equal! His place is a must stop whenever I come back to Sonoma County.“

“This is really a good restaurant and it’s located on Farmer’s in Santa Rosa, CA. I had originally gone to another restaurant but they were so “full” and I just wanted to get a meal to go and be out of there. I ordered the Shrimp & Chicken Udon Noodles box which consisted of the Udon Noodles, kale, bean sprouts, steamed rice, side salad with cucumbers and tomatoes with a Japanese dressing. A soup with tofu & green onions in a bone beef broth. Also, I order the Jumbo Tempura Shrimp and it came with a teriyaki sauce. A very good meal with large portions. Friendly staff & a clean environment which is very important to me.“

“The BEST Kung Pao chicken in all of Sonoma county !!! The flavor profile is perfect! We’ve been trying various restaurants for Kung Pao and nothing compares !!! Delicious sushi 🍣 as well , Fresh always! Great customer service as well! Cheers to Gary and team ! Love ❤ Lori and Michael“

“The place is great! Super affordable food and friendly staffs! Cafe Locale is definitely worth a try!“

“The location of this place is confusing. It says "Japanese Restaurant in Whole Foods". There is a small area dedicated to two ladies rolling sushi, and some boxed up sushi, but I didn't see a restaurant. I asked the Whole Foods staff and no one knew of a restaurant. The boxed sushi was great, and it's convenient inside Coddingtown Whole Foods near the bakery in the back of the store.“

“Wow, was in town and stopped in for take out. Great choice. Tasty food and large portions. Good kimchi, house salad dressing was flavorful and light, and the spicy BBQ chicken was tender. Could have been a bit more spicy though. So if you want some heat ask for it.“

“this place is the best bang for your buck in Santa Rosa! Serving up all your Japanese favorite for a great price! My go to is usually the gyudon bowl for 12 dollars you get a load of meat and rice this place does not skimp out! same with the Bulgogi bowl if you are looking for a sweeter taste. I finally got to try their wagyu meat plate and their black garlic ramen and both blew past my expectations! The wagyu hot plate came sizzling and was packed with meat and rice! And the garlic ramen was so savory and the noodles were cooked to perfection! Now that I know how good it is I will definitely be getting them next time! If you go the Karaage is a MUST GET! Cooked to perfecting this juicy chicken is made in house fresh and one of the best karaage if not the best karaage in Santa Rosa! Support your local businesses and show them some love!“

“I have eaten here and ordered pick up several times and have always been satisfied, however, tonight my roll was extremely delicious! So fresh! The service here is always pleasant, they are so nice! I highly recommend them for dine in or take out! Always good!“

“Menu is a little overwhelming. It takes a while to read. A lot of rolls with made-up names. I’d prefer to just have a basic 10 rolls and then be able to customize. It’s great that they list the sauces they put in the rolls. But again, just the choice of adding them would be more convenient. The quality of the rice and other ingredients is wonderful. The rolls are delicious.“

“Consistent great food, very nice and speedy service. We're never disappointed! If I had anything to complain about is it's always cold in there! I just started bringing something warmer just in case.“

“Excellent ramen! Flavors are perfectly balanced. I will back soon!“

“I love this place so much. I've been coming here for over a decade and their food is always amazing and consistent. This family owned and ran location is just a small place on right of Oliver's stony point parking lot. Don't let size of place fool you because inside it's full of deliciousness. It a counter you walk up and order with a few tables inside. Their deep fried beef jerky is yummy. But my go to and in picture is their Cajun chicken teriyaki and I add a side of peanut sauce. This dish hits everytime. The family that serves you is so friendly and helpful. Please give this treasure a try.“

“Great food and service!!!!“

“I had spicy chicken with soup, salad and rice. It was well spiced without overdoing it. My spouse had spicy squid with soup and sides. We both enjoyed our meals and we brought spicy chicken leftovers home for another meal. Well worth the prices and very tasty.“

“I first reviewed Paradise years ago. I have been a regular patron even though i live an hour away. I invite my team, new clients, and family there regularly. Theee buffet menu is well organized, easy to order, and they are fast! Even when busy, they have stellar service and their front end staff are so great. Jefe Juan, at the 4th Street location is an amazing owner. I constantly ask him to put another shop in Ukiah, yet to no avail. Out doesn't matter. I'm still coming in. And I'll see you tomorrow.

PS: This is not conveyor belt sushi. This is made to order and everything is fresh and quality.“
