50 Best Sushi Bars near Saratoga

“Ate here last month and still thinking about how fresh the sashimi was. I got the lunch bento with 3 options and chose; sashimi, saba (mackerel) and tempura. It came with a small salad, rice and miso soup. The total was close to 25 dollars and well worth it. The saba was grilled perfectly and the tempura was light, crunchy and not greasy at all. I came with a class group of maybe 10+ people. The students loved the menu also and the staff were so kind and accommodating. 10000% wish I could eat here every week. 1000% will be coming back.“

“Enjoy the slow moments and dining experience with authentic Japanese flavors here. Chef Suzuki is a master chef. They have been around 10+ years and have loyal customers. Make reservations as it is a small setting, you are not likely able to just walk-in.

Here is what I tried and I recommend them as representative and rare dishes in the Bay Area:
mentaiko isobe maki
assorted tempura
karasumi zosui
amaebi, otoro, uni nigiri
tomoshichi nigori junmai
Saba no aka-miso ni
hirame sashimi
purin w/ a candle for a bday

On the menu, it says you have to be invited to try a omakase experience from the chef. Somehow, someday I will get there.“

“Have been going to this place lately. Fresh and delicious. The price is pretty good for 1 combo with sides.“

“Love their foods, so delicious and fancy will bring my family & friends there again!!“

“Great sushi! Must get the omakase nigiri or Toyosu special!“

“All the offerings are tasty. Sashimi is my favorite but I have enjoyed all the rolls as well. Friendly family service.“

“The sushi is so fresh it melts in your mouth. It’s so good. It’s a quaint almost hole in the wall type place but it’s clean and the people are friendly and attentive. It’s a definite must if you like sushi. Prices are reasonable and a tiny bit high on some dishes but it’s worth it. I will be going back again and I’m sure lots of times 😋“

“Great sushi and sashimi! ❤️“

“Katsu is a refined, intimate omakase experience that redefines what it means to dine with intention. With only eight seats at the chef's counter, the chef-owner, Katsu Maruyama, treats everyone as a special guest.
The omakase menu evolves with the seasons; the meal's pacing is thoughtful, allowing diners to savor each bite while engaging with Chef Katsu, who shares insights into his techniques and ingredients. The fish is incredibly fresh (often flown in from Japan), and the rice is perfectly seasoned.
The atmosphere is calm and minimalist, allowing you to focus entirely on the food.“

“The best sushi ever, can’t wait to go back to San José to eat there Best regards Charlie Marco“

“Their sushi rolls are fabulous every time. I love the Dragon roll and Paul’s roll. Consistent and fast service every time.“

“Joy Sushi is the best sushi restaurant in Mountain View and beyond. The fish is the freshest, food is delicious and inventive, and the owners are so lovely and welcoming. Every time we go there it’s a treat. The sushi plates are as beautiful as they are delicious!“

“This place is so special to me from first dates to last dates and in between moments I’m thankful for the delicious food and lovely atmosphere! The hostess and waitresses make you feel welcomed and actually make you feel cared about! Thank you Sushi Confidential for making this California Girl feel like at Home 🫶🏼🏡 Vons you’re the best! 💙🫶🏼♥️“

“Awesome take out live them“

“First time after a referral and it did not disappoint! The food was fresh and delicious. The atmosphere was clean and modern. The staff were so nice and came by multiple times to check on us. I had the Happy Together roll and a Saba hand roll which were so full of flavor. Will definitely be coming back!“

“We sat at that counter, facing the men preping the food. The shushi was amazing and tasty. The service was fast, and the environment was cozy as well. The only disappointment was their takiyoki balls that each had only one small piece of octopus inside.“

“A few super authentic Japanese Restaurants in the Bay Area. Main Chef Eric is experienced 20+ years. You can ask his Omakase (Chef Choice). Once you taste Mikado’s super fresh Sushi and Sashimi, it is really hard to find the satisfaction from other places. Their Kitchen Items (grilled items, tempura, and Udon) also absolutely good.“

“We had been searching for a long time around Cupertino for a café that makes good sushi rolls. The task wasn’t easy, but I decided to stop by Bay Sushi and order a few rolls to go. We were pleasantly surprised by the staff — their attentiveness and attention to detail stood out. Our order was ready in less than 10 minutes, and we were delighted with the quality and taste of the rolls. Everything was just right, and now we know where to enjoy healthy and delicious food. Thanks to the chefs and the staff!“

“Rude and abusive owner, poor quality food, bad location, disgusting on the inside, slow service. There is better sushi at gas stations these days.“

“This place has a good variety to choose from. I ordered rainbow and it had a strange aftertaste, which is probably from the crab mixture inside the roll. The rolls that my friend has ordered were fine and didn’t have that aftertaste. The fish was fresh, the food was ready pretty fast. Service is long, the waiter didn’t check on us after he brought the food for a while. Overall, it’s worth trying but service should be improved.“

“I’ve been walking past here every day since my work assignment started. Today I decided to give them a test run around the block. So they have a ton of ‘special rolls’ but not so many of the standard type rolls. I happen to like the standard rolls better and don’t understand the whole fancy this and that. That being said I tried both of what they offered. Both rolls overall were good. Not great, nothing that screamed special. It wouldn’t keep me from stopping back at a later date though. Service was again just ok. The typical where their phone was more important than checking on the customers. The atmosphere and location are decent with plenty of parking. Pricing is what I expected. Others have stated the portions are large and that is the case.“

“The best sushi ever, can’t wait to go back to San José to eat there Best regards Charlie Marco“

“Best foods , great services 🥰“

“larga la espera pero valió la pena muy rica la comida“

“It was generous and delicious! They were so kind, and I really appreciated how they kept refilling my hot tea. It was my first visit thanks to a friend’s recommendation, and I’ll definitely be coming back. The parking is spacious, the food is excellent, and the service is great!“

“great service and food. beautiful coy pond as well“

“Pleasantly surprised by the quality of the nigiri :) food was good, especially the agedashi tofu. The salmon lover was okay, but what made up for it was the amazing service. They were kind and very friendly while also not being overly intrusive.“

“Excellent service, tasty food and pleasant ambiance. We will be back. Loved my sushi and my husband loved his teriyaki chicken.“

“We ordered Octopus karaage, Jalapeno Bomb, king Crab Roll and Alaska Roll. We loved the karaage most and Jalapeno bomb was good too. But the rolls were not as expected, would rate them below avg. Staff and restaurant environment were standard. Parking might be issue specially during weekend nights.“

“Good food good happy hour“

“All the food. Everything it's just fine.“

“I came to this place by myself after a busy shift. I didn’t have to wait long to get a seat. There was a big selection of nigiri and rolls on the conveyor belt, and if I wanted something specific, I could order it on my touchscreen. My favorite dish had to be the scallops with seared Japanese mayo.“

“From the first moment you arrive in that place team give you an agreeable feeling. Very hospitable team, it is a happy restaurant to enjoy with friends or with your date. delicious cuisine, professional chef, decent price and excellent service. Warmly recommended.“

“A random, last minute find on a Friday night with no wait and can accommodate a party of two with an infant in a carseat.
Quaint and no frills restaurant with omakase. Our omakase sashimi order was about 107 dollars, a bit pricey and presentation was not very impressive but every bite was so fresh! Their miso soup was quite delightful, better than most miso soup I’ve had.

Kid-friendliness: We brought our infant in a carseat in, placed the carseat on a chair and tucked it between the wall and the table. I see other families with small kids dining comfortably there too.“

“Our family has been to Sumo many times because it's a family favorite. Our kids love the kids meals (rice, miso soup, and salmon or chicken teriyaki) and the sushi train, where we usually pick a few rolls and mochi for dessert. We love the variety of the menu and freshness of the food most of the time. Depending on the day, the texture of the rice can be improved and sometimes the offerings on the sushi train are limited, but the excellent service more than makes up for it. The restaurant is full of regulars that the staff remembers. A few favorites from the menu include the tempura ramen, all of the rolls, the agedashi tofu and the mochi ice cream. Highly recommended as a family friendly establishment that serves above average food, a quiet and fun ambiance, and great service.“

“Great customer service! Food is good as well.“

“I appreciate the they maintained high quality of sashimi, freshness of fish and beautiful cut according to the nature of the fish.“

“Good ambience, great food. Loved the family vibe. Feels like eating in a cozy eatery in Osaka.“

“Amazing food! Love every item is fresh and delicious . extremely friendly staff! A must try!“

“great food. great patio.“

“Lived here all my life and finally visited this spot.
I won't lie their poke was pretty underwhelming and for the portions and all, it wasn't worth the pricing in my opinion.

However I'm giving them 5 stars due to their sushi rolls, great value and taste, would recommend them for the sushi unironically and not their poke.“

“Whether it’s a date night with my girlfriend or a big family dinner for a special occasion, Okayama is a reliable spot for well made sushi rolls and bento boxes that will satisfy any cravings. Staff is very helpful and quick to assist with any questions or requests“

“We just ordered dinner from Blue Mango tonight. What a treat! We had the pineapple fried rice, pad thai, mango curry, bamboo, and my favorite mango salad. Pick up was super easy--they had set up tables with lots of space in between orders and room for social distancing. And you should have seen the size of the bottle of hand sanitizer available for anyone to use! Let's support our local businesses and keep Blue Mango going!“

“Fresh and very well presented“

“Best sushi hands down! 🍣🍣“

“Decent price, sushi as fresh as it gets and taste-wise is immaculate. Was recommended the hamachi roll by the staff and it was loaded with hamachi in and out. A bit weirded out with the mango in the poké but was surprisingly refreshing. Big fan of the sauteed edamame as well and their softshell crab is real juicy. Plus the Uni is real fresh and creamy.

Absolutely recommended, you wont regret it. The 1 star reviews are mostly disgruntled, weird, nitpicky costumers.“

“i loved the location of the restaurant! it's close enough to my school and a convenient spot with a bunch of other cool food spots too. the service was quick and they were super nice. the handrolls also tasted delicious, especially the tempura and unagi. would go “

“Love the good here, we visit often, go you will ne glad you did“

“This wee little restaurant can only seat up to 21 customers. Yet it is excellent. The service is quick and polite, and the chicken catsu is quite possibly the juiciest I've ever had. The salmon sashimi is always fresh, cool, and tasty.“
