“I called and ordered a roll to go-the Storm roll. It was delicious, and the finest quality and freshness! The owners were there, and the place looks extremely cute inside and also has outside seating. I had never been here before, but will be coming back soon. Very good sushi!“

“Wow!!! I ordered the salmon avocado roll and the dragon roll. Compared to MJ sushi which is a block away, they give you so much more for a similar price. Good quality sushi and they also give you complimentary miso soup and salad which has a lot more ingredients than your average sushi place. Highly recommend this place is my new go to sushi place!“

“I had the tempura and it was amazing. It was well-prepared and incredibly light with a crispy texture. I'd have to say that the freshness of the ingredients played a crucial role in the overall flavor and enjoyment of the dish. The natural flavors of the ingredients along with the light tempura covering just had the right balance of texture and flavor. I will be a regular and am looking forward to trying new dishes.“

“Came here for the first time with my husband and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the fish! It was very fresh and sashimi portions were large and nigiri well made. The restaurant is really small and seems family owned and the chef and staff are all very nice and welcoming. Food was definitely authentic Japanese and the sushi/sashimi is worth the quality you are getting. I will definitely be back to try other items on their menu. Don't pass on this small hidden gem and grab some fresh sashimi/nigiri“

“Must try Omakase in Castro Valley Tancho restaurant truly exceeded our expectations on our latest visit! From the delightful appetizers to the nigiris main courses down to the decadent desserts, every bite was a testament to quality. The fish, freshly imported from Japan, tasted as if we were seaside. Each dish was crafted to culinary excellence. I thought we're not going to get full but the whole dinner menu was so satisfying! Coupled with the cozy ambiance, it was an experience worth every penny of the $125.“

“This is the finest sushi restaurant I have ever been to. Their food is fresh and delicious. I’ve been coming here since 2008 and since my 1st visit have never been anywhere else. They are friendly and make you feel like family. I live in Vallejo CA and still travel to Pleasant Hill, CA for their food. Each time I have dined there I come out totally satisfied.“

“5 star service, there were just a few things with the food like the beef asparagus appetizer was tough and not very flavorful. The nabe udon said it came with shrimp and chicken, but it only came with chicken. Everything else was pretty good.“

“The sushi was great! It was very fresh, and the servers were very friendly. You could feel the love and care in the food they served. The ambiance was relaxing and peaceful. The decor may be outdated, but I'm giving them 5 stars because the quality of food and service is important to me. We ordered hot tea, 2 assorted chirashi bowls, 1 flamingo roll, and 1 dragon roll. This place serves quality fresh fish. Everything was delicious. I'll be back!“

“I know my carnivore friends don't hate me but when you have a partner as awesome as I do and she says she wants to try this sushi place that also serves vegan sushi what do you do, you take her there. Mind you they also have fish based dishes. But I went with it and it was very good. The green dragon roll consisting of tempora sweet potato, avocado and egg plant was great. The sunshine roll with mango, tempura jalapeño, sun dried tomato and avocado was also great. The vegan baked spicey scallop with baked king mushrooms and avocado was also great. Winner of the night.....Green Dragon. The rest come 2nds. Ambiance is nice and the staff is on top of it. All around very nice and will be coming back.“

“It’s a contemporary Japanese restaurant with an extensive menu. Decor is bright and cheery. Bonus points for big screens showing a winning Warriors game on the night we dined there! ? Personally I had the cheesy katsu on a sizzling hot plate which was quite a sight and tastes pretty good. My party had sushi and ramen which are ok but the broth is not complex flavor-wise. The draft beer in frosted mugs is refreshing and goes very well with the katsu. Service is friendly and lots of drink options from sake to soju to ramunes. Definitely something for everyone.Vegetarian options: There are options even for plant-based diets.Parking: Saw a couple of pay-per-use EV charging spots in the parking lot too. Probably J1772s.Kid-friendliness: Good menu options for kids and they provide little chopstick training widgets for a fun experience“

“Delicious and definitely fulfilled our sushi craving. I highly recommend Pocket Sushi no chopsticks required easy to eat, full of flavor, and so pretty to look at. I stopped by after work to pick up a few different types of pockets, the service was great and the food was fresh and made quickly. I waited no more then ten minutes for them to make my six item order and they brought it out to my car which was also very nice. We will for sure be back for more!“

“Torarenbou Sushi Bistro is in the Valley Center Shopping Center. I had been in this plaza several times, but I had never noticed this sushi spot. Small spot in a small plaza with a shared parking lot, but there was plenty of parking here. Not much service - I ordered ahead on the phone for a to go order, so my food was ready to go when I arrived within 15 minutes. A bit inconvenient because I did not know that they do not take Apple Pay, so thankfully I had my actual card on me. I ordered a sake maki, sake nigiri, and salmon handroll. The portions for the sake maki and sake nigiri were generous, while the salmon handroll was average sizing and I only paid about $20 for all 3. Salmon tasted pretty fresh, but the nigiri had a fatty salmon taste to it and the handroll also had a slight aftertaste to it.“

“Actually delicious. We’ve had a lot of sushi in the east bay and this was easily the best takeout - fish was fresh, cuts were generous, and seasoning was interesting and delicious. A little expensive for normal sushi takeout in my opinion but a nice monthly treat! We’ll be back to dine in!Dietary restrictions: Gluten, dairy, egg free“

“This is probably my favorite restaurant. I go here almost every week for past 7-8 years. They give you complementary cucumber salad at the beginning and pineapple juice at the end of your dinner . Everyone is super friendly and helpful . Parking is always available . Restaurant is located at the very small plaza right next to 7/11. They also do very good job with to go orders . Try it , you won't regret !“

“Every time my girlfriend and I come here we get the absolute best service, the food is just spectacular and so authentic and always fresh. Literally the best salmon sashimi I have ever had. Aside from that, it's just so cozy and inviting and everybody is so friendly, oh and the portions are monstrous! You will love this place if you love authentic Japanese and Chinese food!“

“No frills good solid sushi place. Mid price sushi place with fresh fish and generous portions. No unusual fish or higher end varieties. Order from counter and they bring food to table. That is the extent of service. Dining room looks like a diner from any town USA. Mariachi band music was playing when I was there.“

“Enjoyed appetizer of their Special of the day- crab, jalapeno, cream cheese, fried and with crunch topping. Was good but jalapeño was raw, would have been great if jalapeño was par cooked in this deep dried roll. Raw was clunky.Great vegetarian options that were unique, especially the yummy yummy roll, vegetarian roll, Japanese pickles and side salad.Guest had bento box chicken teriyaki, chicken was dry, not great. California roll standard. The rolls were great but bento was not my cup of tea. You may like it.“

“Food was delicious. The service was excellent. The ambiance is perfect. The owner and sushi chef, Ricky, and his staff are my favorite part. We had the VIP treatment. Guess it didn't hurt that RJ's favorite customer was in our group. I highly recommend RJ's.“

“Came back as its been awhile. Still consistent whether bento box or sushi. My fav bento is chicken teriyaki, tempura and CA roll. That was satisfying. The sushi roll was good. Just be ready to be patient as they are short staffed. Sushi chefs busy as the two older ladies are hosting, taking orders, etc. Service is pretty much order as soon as they come as one other woman she just walked by when we arrived. And the other ladies are hustling.“

“We love this place! The food never disappoints! A bit pricey, but well worth it my opinion! Small inside, wouldn't accommodate a large group. We always order the gyoza & lion king wrap (in a double size). We've also ordered the sushi bakes before as well, and they too were delicious! Definitely recommend eating here!“
“tasty sushi burrito, interesting concept, no high end ingredients but still pretty good! ran in with my buddy to the commissary kitchen that has a lot of different restaurants as part of the group. Nice guys running the place, fun to talk to, decent semi-healthy lunch to grab and go!“

“Very friendly service, good food, reasonable prices and a nice atmosphere. They do both Thai and Japanese menus including sushi and sashimi. Excellent value lunch deals during the week. I particularly like the yellow curry and orange peel chicken. My kids love the poke bowl.Vegetarian options: Most dishes are available with tofu in place of meat protein.“

“I’ve been to many Sushi restaurants in Dublin, so far Nara Sushi is the best overall from the food quality, portions, pricing, authenticity and atmosphere.The service was excellent. I ordered Nara roll, Tiger roll and Regular 9pc Nigiri. All food was excellent and fresh!Also we got to try Ebi Tempura, Fried Oyster and Takoyaki as appetizers, no complaint all good. Right now they have special Spicy Tuna toro Gunkan (tuna belly fatty) that was full of flavor!One more thing, they have very good Unagi Bowl and Whe du Bap. Try them all you won’t regret :)“

“This sushi place is very near to my office. I have gotten lunch and dinner there off and on for many years now. The fish is good quality, and everyone there is so very nice. I almost always get takeout, but their restaurant is very pleasant for indoor seating, and the service is warm and friendly.Dietary restrictions: I am celiac, and they are always very accommodating with gluten-free soy sauce. They are also happy to adapt rolls for you if you ask. I usually enjoy sashimi the most so it’s not a huge issue for me.“

“We've been going to Toyo Sushi for over 16 years, many times weekly. This is our goto sushi restaurant for many reasons- The staff is friendly. The fish is fresh. The menu has plenty of options for non-raw-fish eaters. It can get very busy especially on Friday nights so if you order to-go, as a regular, I suggest that you budget 20 more minutes on top of the time they say it will be ready. But its so worth it. The food is great! For the dine-in crowd, they have indoor and outdoor seating and do their best to accommodate larger parties.“

“The service and quality of their food is very good. After my 1st experience, I had to go back to buy 2 Bento lunch meals so that my son can enjoy it also. Their Gyoza is very delicious! You will be satisfied with them. Nice environment inside also. ????“

“I always have a great time when I come. The quality of the food is great with good portion sizes, especially for the price. The menu is huge so everyone can find something to get.My favorites are the hamachi kama, green beans, house salad (they put a lot of dressing, you can always ask for less), fried rice, and honestly any of the rolls (I've had several of them and I liked all of them)!Staff is always super friendly, attentive, and treat you like family.“

“04/20/24- Tried Mama Sushi based on Yelp reviews. Place is small but service is friendly. Ordering can be challenging as the menu print is too small. I find myself taking a photo and then zooming it to see the picture and read the menu! I saw the other customer did the same thing, look in the menu, took a snap and zoom it. The ordering system is like in Japan as there is a clean paper with names of the items and you circle it and how many you wanted. I got a chance to meet Mama and Papa Sushi! There's no other server but just the two of them, cooking and serving. Very few tables. Tasty and fresh sushi. Ordered beef ramen, spider roll, jalapeno da bomb and Mama Roll! They also provide cute complimentary bottle of water for each customer. This is a good idea that they don't need to use glass and pour water. More sanitary in sealed bottled water! It is located in a small, slow area but once people knows about it, they'll go there no matter where it is hidden! My suggestion is to revise the menu into a bigger, more readable menu, even if pages needs to be added. Other than that, no other complaints!“

“Pleasantly surprised! For whatever reason I had never tried Akira before. I'm so glad I finally have. I met up with a couple of friends and we enjoyed drinks and shared a bunch of sushi. There are lots of options on the menu and everything we tried was tasty and super fresh! We were chatting so much that we closed the place down. This might seem random, but I was so impressed by the extensive cleaning they did at the end of the night. This alone will have me frequenting Akira from now on.“
