Mexico City Roll, very tasty.
John H.

Great food at fair pricing, this place never disappoints. Not fancy, just well prepared food in a clean environment. They have take out and some table service, self serve drink machine too.

Bento Box & Jessica Roll
Oliver P.

Finally a great Sushi & Teriyaki Bowl place in Simi Valley! So happy with our visit! The Sushi was fresh and the Bento Box was really good! Everything in my wife's Bento Box came out hot too! The Tempura was hot and delicious! I was very happy with my "Jessica Roll" and we even got some Miso Soup from our Bento box which was nice too! Amazing Service! The guy working the register was very friendly and the restaurant was very clean inside! I absolutely loved my visit and will definitely be back to try more rolls!

Bbq chicken & beef teriyaki plate
Sergio m.

It's been over 6 years since I've been here, and the chicken & Beef teriyaki plate is still really good! Both meats are lean, and have the best teriyaki sauce in town!

Spicy tuna hand roll

Great fresh food at a good price! It's a mom & pop non-chain. They are closed on Sundays and Mondays- so don't go then.

WOW! yummy fresh food, great service, hidden gem!

yummy food, great prices, excellent service, hidden gem. Would recommend to any one looking for a quick bite

What I got.
Kimberly T.

The owner is always nice but unfortunately tonight I am extremely disappointed. I ordered the super hawaiian roll, egg rolls and miso soup to go. I normally never check my order bc they tie it up so well in order to make it home but tonight I wish I did. This is nothing like the hawaiian roll. The only thing I ate tonight was egg rolls and soup bc they were already closed by the time I got home.

Came in with low expectations based on reviews. We were looking for something quick and simple. Got behind the counter was really grumpy. Bill was pricey for fast food. Rolls had way too much rice that stuck to plate resulting in sushi falling apart. No plates for sharing had to ask for napkins and got 3 thin one that wouldn't hold a sneeze. Salad was disgusting and worse was an elderly couple tried to say thank you and good bye on the way out and once again he was annoyed.

Literally my favorite place to get teriyaki bowls. I've been coming for years and it's my go-to comfort food! Always made fresh and the chicken gyoza bowl is to die for!! Pictures include: The chicken teriyaki plate, the chicken gyoza bowl, and the chicken gyoza bowl without veggies

Menu 1 (plates, bowls, combos)
Andrea D.

We ordered the #41 Chicken Teriyaki plate (includes salad, tempura, rice, & 5 piece Ca sushi roll) and the #117 California Chicken Bowl (teriyaki chicken over, steamed veggies, & rice + 2 pieces Ca Roll). The portions and flavor were really good. Quick service. We ordered to go and waited only about 5-6 mins. I will have to try other entrees and provide more feedback.

We came for a late dinner and wanted some sushi, so we tried this sushi spot out that's been here…read morefor quite some time. The restaurant has a lot of seating and a large menu. We tried the Red Dragon roll, California hand roll with soy paper, Albacore delight sushi and a Bento box with Teriyaki chicken sashimi. The items we tried were all good, however, service was a bit slow. Staff were all nice, but seemed to be very busy since this sushi spot had AYCE sushi also. Overall, if you are not in a rush and want some good sushi, come check this spot out.

So if I was rating the flavor of the food alone I'd give 5 stars. But i have to give an honest…read moreoverall review and have to say the service lacked. Super nice but not on it. The little bowl of ginger they serve had a long hair in it. They replaced it quickly but it was gross. Then we ordered our sushi and my husband prefers cooked while I prefer raw. The cooked sushi all came out meanwhile I waited for my poke sushi. Finally I asked and the woman said she forgot. So by the time my sushi came my husband was done. It was annoying bc if he waited his would've gotten cold and then he waited around for me after. It wasn't very busy at all it was 2pm on a week day so I wonder how they do on busy days. The sushi itself was so tasty. The blue crab with crispy rice was delicious. The poke sushi was wonderful. And the fantasy roll was also great. We had another roll but I forgot the name. Definitely will be back for the sushi alone:

It's rare to find a meal that leaves you truly stunned and speechless but Sushi Tanaka did exactly…read morethat. An absolute showstopper of a meal from start to finish. This reservation took a full year to secure and I would gladly wait another year to experience it again. The hardest reservation in Ventura County? Without a doubt. Worth it? YES doesn't even begin to cover it. Dining at Sushi Tanaka is an experience in itself, especially in the presence of a legend like Chef Sei Tanaka. He is warm yet serious, focused yet playful and his dishes speak volumes. Every bite is layered with personality and skill. On the night we came in, my dearest friend Leslie and I had the entire restaurant to ourselves. I can't explain how we had an entire seating to just us but it was magical and intimate. We dinned on 18 courses, each one a surprise more delicious than the last. You just sit back and the chef chooses each bite for you. We've never had octopus so impossibly tender it melted in our mouths. Ice cold sake, warm fish soup, literally I could go on and on about this meal. Choosing favorites feels almost wrong because every course was exceptional, but if forced, the Santa Barbara uni on wagyu, Japanese scallop, Sea bream, and Toro with uni were some of the most impressive and unforgettable bites I've ever had. Never did I imagine that the best sushi I've ever experienced in Ventura County would be found in Simi Valley, but here we are. What an absolute treasure this city holds. I truly hope everyone gets the opportunity to support and experience this extraordinary omakase at least once in their life.

Bougie, the sushi is so good!! Located in Simi Valley where you would never guess Michelin quality…read moresushi would exist. It's quaint, with minimal seating, you need reservations to eat there but it's worth the $$$.
