    Lion King and Bashamichi roll​
    Jessica C.

    New go-to sushi spot when i'm out here in the bay! Tried it with the girlies! Amazing fresh nigiri and really yummy rolls! Great quality fish! Very cute presentation, definitely must try!! Price is decent too for this kind of quality!

    Bashamichi is our go-to spot for holidays when we aren't hosting at home. We've visited on Thanksgiving, and this year, Christmas, and it's not only convenient that they are open, but also delicious! Service is always quick and the restaurant has never been too crowded or noisy (but acknowledging that we do tend to go on holidays). We always get the Bashamichi Roll, a bento box, and fresh sashimi. Sometimes we do agedashi tofu and mixed tempura as well. Their sashimi is always so fresh and they give beautiful cuts - our favorites are the walu and salmon. Both the salmon and beef teriyaki are cooked well and the bento box is a great value. Agedashi tofu and mixed tempura are reliable. The Bashamichi Roll is a must! Sometimes we also order the Bashamichi Set which comes with nigiri, california roll, and sashimi. This set is such a great deal and we've never been disappointed by the nigiri selection. They also seem to have a private room in the back that can fit 8-10 people. Overall, Bashamichi is reliable and affordable. We've been visiting for a couple years now and will definitely continue to do so!

    Interesting location at the La Quinta and almost obscure entry way. I've driven on this street a million times and only discovered the restaurant today from searching on yelp. Street parking is available. This is your typical Japanese bento box / sushi rolls place run by Chinese people. For $23 a bento box with three items, it offers a variety of options including salmon, saba, teriyaki / fried meat, sashimi. Most food items tasted fine but not memorable - while others such as the sukiyaki beef and katsu could use better quality meat and more tenderizing. The table and serving ware were cleaner and more organized than most other Japanese bento restaurants I've been to. +1 star for the cleanliness and the trendy wallpaper.

    High quality fish and good service. Easy to miss because it's on a busy street, but I'd definitely come back and return. I enjoyed the sushi, as well as the #1 hand roll. Nice ambiance.

    In front of hotel so be aware. Sign said parking in back or something I forgot Service 9/10 friendly, efficient Solid bento 8/10, visiting family so I'm not used to bay area pricing but I imagine 22 for 3 item isn't bad. Food overall is ~4.5 stars and parents enjoyed it a lot, dad doesn't always compliment stuff, we typically like bentos. So no sashimi comments here. Round up for overall everything being reasonable, solid and good. Food quality: Bentos generally I care if the meet is overcooked, tough, dry, and I look at tempura quality cause if it's below a certain point I regret ordering it. Tempura 5.5/5 - actually flaky, crispy, light, they give you a lot, this is something I enjoy and it isn't easy to please me persay but I'm not at snob levels yet, I eat whatever is given for the most part haha Beef teriyaki 5/5 - as good as it gets without being actual high tier meat and that is not the standard for this place. Sauce is good, and meat done well. Not pictured but sampled a piece Salmon Teriyaki 4.5/5 - solid not much to say, soft, not overdone, if anything could be a little more so it could have some grill/crisp factor on the outer side but it's flaky and soft so, I don't think anyone would be disappointed. Chicken 3.6/5 - seemed slightly softer than I'm used to so maybe they blanched it but it was fine. Not undercooked, sauce was necessary imo but I have higher threshold for salt and savory things than most people. Miso was good, dressing on salad was actually something I like a lot, it's the sweet savory white dressing that I speculate might be diluted kewpie and something else but I don't know. Dressing is amongst the top japanese dressings, only the best ginger ones are better imo - subjective since this is a cheap dressing I feel like but I like it.

    beef teriyaki and sashimi
    Maurine S.

    Came back for lunch and maybe dinner is better? Lunch was a 3.5 star experience. Ordered the beef teriyaki and sashimi. I have to say, the 4 slices of sashimi were nice and thick and tasted oh so fresh! The salmon was good and the white tuna buttery and melted in your mouth! Why the low rating? The beef teriyaki was tough and lukewarm. We were the only diners in the restaurant so I don't think it sat for a bit. Also, the salad was a bit tasteless. Tasted more like thousand island on lettuce. The service was good, the guy was nice about refilling our tea. The ambiance was chill since we were the only ones dining for lunch on a Wednesday afternoon. I think I'll try it again because I really liked the sashimi.

    two item bento box
    Diana T.

    I'm going to start with the pro and end with the cons. Food is actually pretty good here and their bento box lunch is a hit of a deal. 3 items is about $24ish and there's no +$1 or +$2 for premium items on the list like some other places do. It's located within a hotel block and parking is not too bad on El Camino. Their fish is fresh and there's an abundance of seating for a typical sushi restaurant. Con is that food takes forever to come out. The first time we came here was as a party of 8. Yes that's a pretty big party but mind you, there were only 4 other people in the entire restaurant. Our food took 40 minutes to come out! We literally had to go up to the counter to ask what happened. But all the food was suddenly ready so we sat back down. We were also not the only party that was frustrated. There was a couple that got up and just left after the brutal wait. If you're in for a treat, just prepare for a wait.

    Such a GEM!! This place is hidden on the first floor of the La Quinta, and apparently you can guest park in their parking lot. Despite that, it was packed during weekend dinner! The fish quality is insane for the prices. I loved the nigiri a lot, as well as my negihama maki! I'll definitely be coming back.

    Spicy tuna roll​
    Ashley Y.

    Let me preface by saying I'm not usually a picky person... Can't speak to their treasure box, but not the place to go for rolls if you're a true raw fish person. Their rolls are largely vegetarian or imitation crab. Wanted something that was salmon or tuna based, ended up getting the 49er roll mistakingly thinking it was going to be more fish based, though its entirely my fault I didn't read more closely. Also ordered a side of the spicy tuna roll. I do think this is a relatively standard roll and it didn't taste right. Couldn't taste the tuna, it was extremely mushy and watery, and just felt like eating the sauce with a scoop of fish. Hopefully it was just me, but not sure I would come back for redemption

    Fresh fish, oysters imported from Japan, delicious beef yakitori, great & quick service, nice & quiet ambiance. Located in close proximity to SFO airport & plenty of hotels nearby. Bookmarked this place it's toooooo good!

    Fresh fish, delicious rolls, and perfectly fried tempura! This restaurant is sort of hidden. It's attached to a motel, not in a super busy part of town. There's street parking outside but I believe you can also park in the motel's parking lot. The restaurant space is long and narrow, but there is a bar with seating and ample seating for small and big parties. The staff were quite busy the Friday night we were there but the food came out promptly after we ordered. Everything we had was delicious. The mix tempura was a great portion size for the price and nicely fried. We had the Bashamichi Roll, Sunrise Roll, and Lion King Roll (all the recommended special rolls). The rolls were great - not too much rice and each bite was actually unique its own ways. Sometimes I feel like rolls can just taste all the same but this wasn't the case.

    Tempura
    Toni Rose M.

    The sushi here was okay overall. I tried the Treasure Box and the tempura. Surprisingly, I really enjoyed the tempura--it had just the right texture and was cooked perfectly. As for the Treasure Box, I found it a bit disappointing, especially the toro, which didn't quite meet my expectations. That said, one of the white fish pieces stood out--it tasted great and had a spot-on texture. Would I come back? Probably not. I get the sense that a lot of people come here for the rolls, but since I'm not a fan of rolls, it just wasn't the place for me.

    Party Combo A
    Tom P.

    I ordered from GH for delivery and surprised how good the quality it is. My favorite's are Sushi Combo, both Party Combo, and Lover Sushi Combo. The fishes are fresh with good portion.

    Treasure chest $68. Omakase.  Chef's choice of nigiri.

This is actually a Japanese kaiseki style restaurant. Reservations are highly recommended as they do not take Walk-ins. There's two seatings for this restaurant so arrive promptly as they serve everyone at the same time . We started with the amuse bouche which was the kobachi three way. The three ways they served this was very unique. It was prepared with one steamed, one in soup and one fried. All were delicious! Next was the sashimi and it was also served with three different fishes. They did serve it with crostinis which was really good with the olive oil. We got the simmered yellowtail collar and the Toro skewers next. The yellowtail collar did have a lot of bones so I won't recommend this for older folks. It was very tender but a little on a salty side. I did like how it came out eggplants. The Toro skewers were also very tender but that wasn't my main dish. My friend enjoyed it very much. The dungeness crab chawanmushi was by far my favorite. It has a streamed egg and crab meat. They didn't skimp out on this dish it had a lot of crab in it. My next favorite dish was the kaki-age donburi which was a scallop and shrimp tempura. It was dust with a green tea sea salt I think. I wasn't able to eat it with the soup and I definitely wasn't able to eat it with the rice. By this dish I was already full. We also had the soju flight which was originally three flights but we added a fourth one . We got the yuzu. Lemon, strawberry and grapefruit orange. They were all good but the yuzu is the main winner! Since it was my bday , they turned off all the hours of the restaurant and everyone sang happy birthday to me. It was a little embarrassing but it added a little special touch. This was one of the best experience I've ever had at a Japanese kaiseki restaurants. The servers were so attentive. The food was creative and you can tell they spent a lot of time perfecting everything. They do change the menu every season so I'm excited to try their next menu when I come back.

What's good is there is a unique variety of food not often seen at other Japanese restaurants, like the Okonomiyaki. We ordered a couple of items and they came out in waves. The wait wasn't long but it wasn't fast. The server is attentive despite relying on the tablet for orders and there are special menu deals for certain times. All in all, I would come here if you want a no frills, low interaction eating out experience.

I went around 8pm on a weekday and place was packedddd, but the service was impressive. All of our dishes came out all at one, within 5-10 minutes after ordering. What I had: Yuk hwe (beef tartare with pears and egg yolk): If you're hesitant about raw beef, please don't be. It's honestly just like eating sashimi. Wagyu meat was incredibly tender, sweet, and melted in my mouth. It was mixed with some kind of seasoning sauce and egg yolk, so savory and addictive I couldn't stop. Highly recommend you should try it if you can eat raw food Bossam: Great but I found it a bit too fatty (meat-to-fat ratio was like 50:50 ). My favorite way to eat was wrapping it in lettuce with garlic (extraaa), jalapeno, kimchi, and ssamjang. It also went well with rice. Big bite was super satisfying Galbi tang: Something we ordered to balance things out (2 previous dishes was just heavy), and it was a perfect decision. The soup was light, clean, and deeply comforting. Beef short ribs were super tender. I like to eat with a big spoon, ribs, rice, kimchi then dipped in the warm soup, perfect!!! I also appreciate that they serve complimentary warm tea, which was perfect for a cold day like today. Portions are generous, we had plenty of leftovers. Would definitely come back.

Literally, the skirt of beef in my bibimbap was less than one spoonful. It was made up by increase amount of veggies either. I know inflation is causing everything to be more expensive, but this feels a bit ridiculous. We'll probably not return, at least not for those items.

So when we visit a sushi restaurant, we tend to evaluate everything as a whole -- price, quality, service, and of course the flavors. For dinner we ordered the Mango Tuna Roll (which was our first time trying a mango-style sushi roll), the 8-piece Omakase Nigiri, a Double Toro Roll, two pieces of Otoro, and a hot sake. With a 20% tip included, the total for the two of us came to $163.50, which honestly falls within the average range of what we usually spend for a sushi dinner like this. Normally we might pay around $120-$130 depending on the place, sometimes a little more if we add an extra item or two. The portion sizes were pretty standard. Not unusually large, but not small either -- similar to what we've experienced at many other sushi restaurants. Where this place really stood out was the depth of flavor. The quality and balance of the ingredients were excellent. At one point I actually caught myself closing my eyes just to focus on the taste, which is something I almost never do. The preparation felt very refined and the flavors were elevated, rich, and memorable. I would describe it as delicate portions with very elevated flavors. Because of that, I'm giving this place 5 out of 5 stars. This is the kind of restaurant that works perfectly for a nice dinner with your partner. It's not necessarily a place where you go wild ordering everything on the menu like at a taco spot. Instead, it's better to be thoughtful with what you choose and enjoy a few well-crafted dishes. You can easily have a special, enjoyable dinner here without going overboard. Definitely worth visiting if you're in the area and want a quality sushi experience with refined flavors. The only thing I felt was missing was a small welcome miso soup. In some sushi restaurants we've visited, they serve a tiny cup of miso with a couple pieces of tofu as a warm welcome. It's a very small gesture, but it creates a nice first impression and adds a sense of hospitality to the experience. Considering the quality and pricing of the menu here, a simple welcome miso soup would fit perfectly with the overall dining experience.

Japanese Curry, a sweet and mild curry, is very different from Indian and Chinese/Thai curry. Usually served w/crispy Tonkatsu and a cabbage salad, it can be hard to find. Finding good Japanese curry can be just as difficult. CHB satisfies on the Japanese curry savoriness front. While it's nothing fancy (that extends to their decor), it is housemade and delicious. Waitstaff was brisk and courteous. Was advised to not order more than what I had...he was right. Had leftovers to take home! Ordered the signature ORIGINAL KATSU CURRY w/pork. Other option is chicken. Steamed rice in a Japanese eatery is always top notch, always perfect and generous in portion here. The Tonkatsu was crispy but a tad short of tender, but tasty enough to dip in the accompanying Japanese curry sauce. I might ask for the curry sauce on the side next time. Cabbage salad, traditionally a huge portion was a small offering cushioning the Tonkatsu. Accompanied by a small scoop of house made potato salad and pickled veggies. The hot Tonkatsu, steamed rice and Japanese curry sauce was a great combo for me, a very filling and satisfying meal! CH offers a tabletop varied selection of chili peppers: Pequin, Wiri Wiri, Ichimi, Jalapẽno, Orange Habanero. I did a light sprinkling of the traditional Japanese Ichimi pepper to add a touch of heat and that was fine. Signature ORIGINAL KATSU CURRY was a great start to this menu tasting. I'll be back to try their DOUBLE MENCHI CURRY, KARAAGE CURRY, ASSORTED VEGGIE CURRY, KATSU CURRY UDON. CURRY HYUGA BURLINGAME is also one of the few places that has Omurice on its menu. A Japanese omelet w/rice or noodles inside. Their version is HAYASHI OM-RICE. I will definitely be back to try this! See you there!

    Stopped by here on a Friday night with some friends who were craving Hainanese Chicken. When we got…read moreto the restaurant, I remembered I had come here about a year ago, and the menu had totally been revamped, either that or it was the lunch menu. Anyways we got seated quickly, and I began with a nice cold beer and we started looking at the menu. We instantly had to get the baked pork chop w. Spaghetti as that was pretty much our childhood choice, going to HK style places. We grabbed some fried fish skin in salted egg yolk and fried chicken in salted egg yolk as we haven't had that before. Both were good. I definitely never had that chicken in salted egg yolk before but it seemed to work well. We got a half order of the Hainanese chicken, and that was delicious with the sauces provided. You can never go wrong with dim sum, so we got the sui mai, har gow, steamed pork ribs, and chicken feet. All were comparable to what you would get at a dim sum restaurant in the morning, but instead we had it at 8pm! Overall, the ambiance of the place is nice and quiet, with a few families eating out, and some college students enjoying a meal. The waiters would frequently stop by and refill our water cups whenever they were near empty, I probably would have got rice but my friends wanted spaghetti with the baked porkchop, overall a great place for a meal with dim sum too!

    My go-to Hong Kong café in Millbrae is usually Orchid Café, but this new spot popped up on my IG,…read moreso I decided to give it a try. I'd say this café is definitely comparable to Orchid Café! We ordered the pineapple bun, baked cutlet rice, and Typhoon shrimp fried rice. The pineapple bun was excellent -- soft and bouncy inside with a buttery, flaky crust. It paired really well with their Hong Kong milk tea. However, the milk tea was a bit too sweet and slightly watery for my taste. I prefer a stronger tea flavor with a silkier texture. The baked cutlet rice with curry sauce was flavorful and comforting, but the cutlet crust was a little soggy. If it had been crispy, it would have been perfect. The Typhoon shrimp fried rice was really good -- very aromatic, topped with crunchy Typhoon-style garlic, and it had great wok hei. I've heard their Hainanese chicken rice is also really good, so I'll definitely be back to try more items on the menu. Looks like Orchid Café has some serious competition in Millbrae now
