    Chicken Fried Rice
    Francis D.

    We were here with 12 starving young adults. There were a decent amount of customers for around 5pm. Initially I thought that it was but pricey as rolls were about $20 each and dinner bentos for two items were $23-25 bucks (considering we are from California) I was pleasantly surprised when our food came that there portion size were huge, good enough for sharing. The fried items were hot and crispy, the teriyakis were flavored properly, and the rolls had good rice to fish ratio. The place was clean and appealing. Check it out

    Agedashi tofu
    Robin R.

    Why have I not been coming here more often!? Especially when it's down the street!? Things were absolutely amazing tonight for our dinner and I think this might turn into a weekly affair! My husband got the Chirashi bowl and a Spicy California Roll and they were both top notch! He really liked how well the sushi rice was seasoned. I got a side a sushi rice, sesame chicken, and agedashi tofu. Now this might be blasphemous but I asked and the chef said all the chicken they used was breast meat!!!! That is huge for me cause I'm a white meat girlie and I can confirm the sesame chicken was breast meat and was SOOOO flavorful and moist!!!! Best fried chicken in town kinda chicken! I couldn't believe it! Plus we both got free miso soup which I almost never can eat because of too much dashi making it too fishy for me but this miso soup I could eat! The staff was sooo accommodating with me asking for different side sauces.

    Sashimi lunch, salmon belly, otoro

    I came in a party of four on a weekend for lunch. I heard great things about Ahi sushi and after trying other local sushi restaurants, I was excited to try Ahi. The ambiance is very no frills and clean. The service was relatively quick after we ordered. I ordered the lunch bento with hand rolls of salmon avocado and tuna avocado. I also had salmon belly and otoro. The hand rolls were quite large and very tasty. The salmon belly was very tender and delicious. The otoro was the star of the show - it's my absolute favorite cut of tuna and I order it whenever I get the chance! It was so tender and melted in my mouth! Overall, we had a great time and I'll definitely be back for more otoro!

    I'm not a sushi fan and I won't eat anything raw. That being said, Ahi Sushi is my new spot for rolls. Really tasty and the service has been consistent that part couple times we've gone, everyone welcomes you when you walk in the door. When my husband's boss comes out for work, Ahí is always his spot too. So I'm happy to tag along.

    Went to Ahi Sushi to celebrate a friend's birthday with a group of 10, and overall it was a great experience. We timed it well and beat the rush, which definitely helped with seating and service. The service was good and the server was attentive and friendly, especially considering the size of our group. The food was fresh and came out in a reasonable amount of time. I ordered the garlic edamame, which was flavorful and a great starter. The sauce that came with it was delicious and I used it with my sushi roll as well. I also had the rainbow roll and added jalapeños, which gave it a nice extra kick and made it even better. Overall, good food, good service, and a fun spot for a group celebration. Would definitely come back

    Service was great! Our waitress was very sweet and attentive. My roll was not the best but maybe I got the wrong one.... I'll would try something different next time, but I don't think I'll return. The actual spot is small and cozy .. nothing special to return to

    Monster Roll, Rainbow Roll, Jimbo Roll
    Justin M.

    My wife and I love sushi, so we finally decided to try Ahi Sushi. I had read tons of positive reviews about this place and I'm glad to say it lived up to the hype. The staff were all very welcoming and extremely friendly. The sushi was all excellent. Everything tasted so fresh and was so flavorful. My favorite was the monster roll. It was my first time trying it. The rainbow roll was also great tasting. All the fish that was laid on top was all fresh and great tasting. My wife chose the Jimbo roll. The presentation was beautiful. We will definitely return as this is probably our new favorite sushi spot here in Bakersfield

    Was invited to a birthday dinner and they had reserved a table for a large group. The restaurant itself is not very big. However, it is very popular, as we noticed, a huge turnout. It was also Friday evening. Service was excellent, very warm and accommodating. I really liked the miso soup; I finished mine as well as my husband's! The sushi rolls were standard, nothing spectacular. I suppose portions are good. My husband also ordered the mixed fried rice and it was good. I will definitely be visiting again.

    Trish S.

    Still one of the best sushi spots in town. The cucumber salad I ordered off the recommendation of another yelp review. Delicious! Much larger than I thought. We ordered it to split and still only finished half of it . The sushi we ordered was great. The food is really good. The 5th star is for the service. Above and beyond friendly.

    Nice portion of cucumber salad which includes some seaweed salad too
    Mike H.

    3 years have passed and though we don't visit as much as we did in the past, the food is still great and the staff is great.. Looks like the prices have increased slightly but can't blame them for that and the portions (tuna dance, Hama Hama, edamame, and cucumber salad) continue to be healthy.. Looks like they have have managed to hire some additional staff to accommodate the increased crowds.. Keep it up and here's to the next 3 years!!

    I went back after one year for lunch. Still the same great service. Same great vibe. I ordered an appetizer and 2 rolls. The portion was so generous I had to take half of the food to go. The soft-shell crab was amazing. The Stockdale roll and spicy tuna was amazing. Great sushi

    If you haven't been this is absolutely the best place in Bakersfield for Sushi!!! Jenny and her husband put out a great product. The service is awesome and super friendly. The sushi is super fresh!!!!

    Hot California
    Natali C.

    This place was great. The staff was very friendly and welcoming. All the food was absolutely delicious and fresh. It was very busy in there but it didn't feel loud or chaotic, definitely a nice ambiance. Our waitress was new but she was lovely and very helpful. If you're looking for a nice place for lunch or dinner, this is a great one. You will enjoy the food and the space is nice too. Can't believe I hadn't tried it before!

    Hot Night in front and dragon rich- both good! I preferred dragon rich.

    Anyone know if they offer gluten free food?

    Sushi is typically already GF. Just stay away from tempura, soy sauce, etc. and you're good.

One thing I noticed was the mix of different tables and chairs throughout the restaurant. It almost feels like a hodgepodge of furniture, but somehow it works and fits the contemporary vibe rather than feeling out of place. The food was excellent, the service was friendly, and the prices were very reasonable. We received our food surprisingly fast, which was a nice bonus. There was a mistake with one of our rolls, but the staff handled it well. They quickly remade the roll and brought us a replacement at no charge, which I really appreciated. One of the highlights was a custom roll with jalapeño, avocado, and asparagus. I added cream cheese and had it deep fried, and it honestly tasted like a sushi version of a jalapeño popper. It was absolutely amazing and something I would order again in a heartbeat. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. Good food, good service, reasonable prices, and a unique atmosphere. I would definitely recommend giving Kuma Sushi a try.

    Had ordered from the restaurant before on DoorDash and this time I decided to pop in. I was…read morepleasantly surprised at how cute the space is. The parking is a bit of a challenge right now due to the construction in downtown. However, there is a lot right next to them that you can park in and there is also parking on the street directly in front of their door. The restaurant is modern and decorated in Asian theme. The bathroom and the restaurant is very clean. And the staff was very attentive, professional, and very pleasant. I enjoyed the food I ordered via DoorDash, but this time I got it fresh right out of the kitchen and the counter, and it was amazing. We started with the jalapeño bomb, and mixed tempura in a size small. Both those appetizers were delicious and perfect for sharing. Then we ordered a California roll on soy paper, the Kuma special sushi roll, and the creamy salmon roll. Everything was fresh and very shareable. We could've easily shared our meal with two other people needless to say we had leftovers to take home. I definitely recommend this place and I look forward to going back. There are other things on the menu such as fried rice, udon, and teriyaki plates. They also had a couple of desserts, so I am definitely planning on trying one of those. Enjoy!

I'm glad we did, because it gave us a whole new feel for the place. Inside isn't massive, but it's not cramped either. Think of it like the Goldilocks of restaurant spaces: just right. The vibe leans calm and cozy, dim lighting, black walls, and splashes of color here and there. It's got that "peaceful sushi zen" atmosphere without being boring. Our waitress deserves a medal (or at least an extra roll on the house). She was the only one working the floor, yet somehow managed to be friendly, attentive, and efficient all at once. Multitasking level: expert. Now onto the food, which is really why we came back. We ordered a spread: two teriyaki chicken plates, one chicken ramen bowl, an order of sushi crunch rolls, egg rolls, a large pineapple sake, a beer, and two iced teas. (Yes, we came hungry. Don't judge.) Everything came out quickly, hot, and fresh. The chicken was juicy, the rice perfectly cooked, and the little bed of veggies under the teriyaki chicken was tender-crispy and surprisingly addictive. Whoever thought of tucking those under there deserves a raise. The ramen had bold flavors that hit the spot, and the sushi rolls lived up to their name, they really were crunchy and delicious. Now, the egg rolls. Let me tell you, these might just be the best I've ever had. Perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and stuffed with flavor on the inside. The kind that makes you regret ordering only one plate. Drinks? The beer was cold (and surprisingly affordable), the iced teas were strong and refreshing, and the pineapple sake... well, it was different, let's just say it's not everyone's cup of tea. Personally, I'll stick to tequila, lol, but my husband happily claimed the sake as his new favorite. Win-win. Prices here are fair and budget-friendly, which is always nice to see at a sushi spot. The place was clean and well-kept, and I'm happy to say it still holds up just as well as when I ordered takeout years ago. Bottom line: Shoyu Sushi is still doing its thing, fresh food, good prices, relaxing vibe, and service that makes you feel taken care of. If you want sushi that crunches, teriyaki that comforts, and egg rolls that just might ruin all other egg rolls for you, this is the spot.
