Karlee D.

This little sushi spot has so much potential. The sushi is delicious but the service is very slow. We were the only people there and it took forever to get our order. We had to stand up and find someone for drink refills and our bill.

Excellent unfiltered sake
Victoria F.

Extraordinary special place- food, decor and SERVICE was outstanding! Even the other customers were so friendly and kind. Highly recommend the tempura, and the sashimi tapas. Also if the Japanese cheesecake is available as a special dessert, don't pass it up! We were fortunate to enjoy a really lovely conversation with Shawn and Julie the hard working proprietors of this awesome restaurant, once you meet them you can easily understand their faithful customer following .

Menu

Food was alright, portions were really small for a very costly price. Server acted like we were stupid for not knowing a lot about sushi.

Uni
Alexandre D.

Service and food is always a 10/10 whenever we come. Nice mom and pop shop with very friendly owners. We were seated right away and had our order taken. We got Uni Nigiri and the Deluxe Sashimi Moriwase. Uni was incredible, filling, and melted in my mouth. The sashimi pieces were thick and delicious. Overall great service and great food.

Hashimi 7- piece!
Rey V.

Amici Sushi is easily one of Lathrop's finest sushi spots. The hashimi was A+ -- fresh, clean, and exactly what you want when you're judging a sushi restaurant by quality. You can tell they take pride in their fish. The Red Ocean roll seems to be the go-to item here, and I tried it. It's definitely good and well balanced, but it does feel like the restaurant emphasizes it a bit too much. While it's worth trying once, I'd actually recommend exploring some of the other rolls on the menu because there's likely even better options to discover. Service was solid with a very friendly staff, which always makes the dining experience better. Overall, a great spot if you're looking for quality sushi in Lathrop, and I'll definitely be back to try more of their menu.

Love love everything about Amici Sushi My favorite restaurant in Lathrop from day 1 :) the Tempura is fresh and crispy the teriyaki chicken is the best. The restaurant is always very clean & service is a thumbs up.

Waiting Area
Ter L.

I was in a time crunch when it came down to my daughter's dinner schedule. While I would have rather gone to a sushi spot closer to home, home was technically over an hour away. I did the next best thing and hopped on Yelp and stumbled across Amici Sushi. Ratings looked pretty good so I made the decision to dine. The establishment from outside is beautiful. The interior was just as easy on the eyes but it was limited in size. Our family of 3 was seated fairly quickly while there was an additional 4 parties already in the middle of dining. The menu is pretty big. Our family of 3 settled with: *California Roll [made with real crab] *Sushi Moriawase- 10pc chef's nigiri assortment. Comes with miso soup & salad. *Crunch & Munch- shrimp tempura & snow crab salad. Roll topped with Hokkaido Scallops *Tempura *Hot Tea *Iced Tea The best things eaten that night was the sushi moriawase nigiri assortment. Sushi rice wasn't great but the cuts of seafood were plentiful. Everything else was a solid disappointment. The miso soup was salty, the California Roll was one of the worst CA rolls I had ever eaten. At $12 a roll, the roll clearly states real crab is used and what a waste of real crab it was- Crab portion was stingy, flavorless, and tough to eat because everything fell apart. The Crunch & Munch, again, had real snow crab salad included. The crab salad was flavorless, unappetizing, and did not justify the $21 price tag. 1 star because presentation was great. 1 star because staff was nice. Other than that, this sushi spot is greatly overpriced. I admit it, I am sooooo sooo spoiled in SJ and these kind of establishments just don't do it for me. HARD PASS.

Sushi Moriawase, very traditional, fish to rice ratio is perfect!
Rey M.

Great food, good service, nice and cozy, small but clean mom and pop place. Sushi Moriawase was oishi, can't get any traditional than that. Tempura was really good, thin and crispy batter. Gyoza was crispy and deliciously fried, and the sauce was amazing! Tuna and Salmon Kama is a must try if you love grilled fish. One of a few Japanese restaurants that serves Orion beer (originally from Okinawa), love it! I'm definitely coming back, and will recommend this place to friends and family. Sean and his wife (owner) were very friendly too!

Sashimi $45 for 10 pieces?! Overpriced
Tommy R.

45.00 for sashimi 10 pieces is wild. Service was alright. I also had a spider roll it was alright. 6/10. Most likely enjoy the beer more than the food.

Sashimi/sushi lunch combo
Nobuyuki S.

I'm a kind of tradition Japanese person. I used to go into the U.S. o-sushi restaurants in the 1980s and talk to the o-sushi preparer in Japanese to make sure he was licensed in Japan, to be sure about the safety of the food. Coming back to California, the flash freeze rule takes care of the safety, and usually changes the texture of the fish. I don't go many places to eat o-sushi because it isn't traditional. Today, the couple who own the house wanted to get sashimi. They couldn't agree on a place, so we ended up here. In ten years of living in the area, and several times in this parking lot, I'd never been to Amici Sushi. We were greeted quickly and felt welcome. Prices on the menu got our attention. We ended up with $132 something for three people. I guess that isn't awful when Jack in the Box can be $14 for one person. I ordered the sashimi/sushi lunch combo, which came with salada and miso soup. Price was not bad. They ordered a teriyaki/sashimi combo, poke salada, kimchi salada, spicy niku (meat) udon, and crab roll. Salada and miso soup arrived after a while. It wasn't very busy and we had the second table occupied out of three. The people who arrived with children ordered before we did, so we had to wait a bit. Salada seemed small. As well, the kimchi salada and the poke salada were small. The plate was huge which made it seem even less in size but they weren't big. I'm not a foodie, so my perception is different, I'm certain. The fish was surprisingly good. I've had sashimi in two other places in Manteca and Lathrop and they were barely adequate. Go to a traditional Japanese restaurant in Japan, New Jersey, or Gardena and you'll see what I mean. The sushi was unusual for me. I'm accustomed to rice on the bottom and fish on the top or maki zushi with seaweed around it. This was a roll without the seaweed. They fell apart but they had good flavor. It was a good experience, especially since we weren't their regular type of customer.

Uni
Dynaton T.

This place is absolutely amazing. Best in the valley in my opinion. Super clean restaurant. Owner is realy nice and personable. Very fast service. 5/5 Now lets get to the food. Sashimi is placed on top of a mountian of crushed ice so it remains cold. Fish is fresh and next texture. The sake melts in your mouth. The uni is a 10/10. Large portion and well worth your money. Comparable to fresh uni from japan. Definitely will be back very soon.

Ask the Community - Amici Sushi

Can they do rolls with no rice? I saw a few pictures of cucumber rolls and was wondering what it was called? I'm doing keto and craving sushi bad lol

Yes! I asked Shawn to prepare my role with cucumber wrapped around it instead of rice. I get the red ocean with cucumber, it's delicious!!! Highly recommend it. I think he should name it Tiffini's Ocean, 😆!

Does anyone know if they have vegetarian "sushi"? I know that's sacrilege in the sushi business, but I love me some good veggie "sushi"!

The owner is awesome at accommodating special requests so you should be fine with getting "good veggie sushi".

I've ordered SO much from here over time -- sushi boats, California roll platters, sushi dinners,…read morebento boxes, tuna crispy rice, gyoza, and honestly so much more. Everything I've had has always been fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned. The food comes out fast, and the service is consistently friendly and attentive. I've never had a bad experience here, which is saying a lot because I've ordered from the menu quite a bit! Definitely one of my go-to spots when I'm craving sushi. Great food, great portions, and great service every time.

Firstly- garlic spicy edamame - felt it was rushed to make. The edamame was firm and not soft and there was no real spice or garlicky taste to it. For it being $9.95 whereas the steam edamame was $5.50, definitely not worth it. 2 stars Baby lobster roll- California topped with lobster pieces and eel sauce was pleasantly good. 5 stars Chicken teriyaki dinner - half the plate was filled with salad and an okay miso dressing. The chicken was just ordinary. I got tired of it quick and couldn't finish it. To me, it wasn't as good as my fav Japanese restaurant on how it's prepared, so for that I give it 3 stars. (Wouldn't order it again) My wife had the salmon teriyaki and she finished the rice but left a lot of salmon on her plate. No grade since I didn't try it. The positive is the staff was really friendly and attentive. 5 stars Now that I've tried Matsu Sushi, I don't think I would eat here if waiting to watch a movie at AMC. They have a great spot being next to the theater but sadly, not impressed with the food that I would want to spend over $100 to eat here (3 people)

Between the bar and dining area, there's plenty of seating, so finding a spot shouldn't be an issue. Side note: I'm not sure if this place was built underneath a spaceship, but once you step inside, you'll have zero cell phone service. Definitely something to keep in mind if you need to make a call or stay connected while you're here. The menu is fairly extensive and features a lot of the typical favorites you'd expect from a tap house. Once I tried their Avocado & Chicken Club Sandwich, I was hooked.

It sounds great on paper but the execution falls short. For whatever reason they don't cook all the veggies with the pizza, instead, they heap on a bunch of raw veggies after it comes out on the oven so it's kinda like a salad. I'm guessing it's too much moisture to cook down all those veggies, in which case, put less veggies! The toppings should all be cooked! I'm leaving this review not only to inform you but to remind myself when I go back in 6 months! Also the wings were too vinegary. Pork belly bites were delish, service was fast and friendly. Round up from a 3.5 because they're better than the 3 stars they're currently at, all things considered.
