We drove all the way from Reno to Truckee just to try this place, and it was definitely worth the trip! The sushi was fresh, flavorful, and honestly even better than we expected. The owner himself was there and served our food, which made the experience feel really personal. He mentioned that their fish is sourced from San Francisco, and you can really taste the quality -- super fresh! The service was warm, the atmosphere was cozy, and every roll we tried was delicious. We'll absolutely be coming back. Highly recommend if you're craving good sushi in Truckee! read more

This sushi was good Honestly some of the best sushi we've had in northern Nevada- not your ayce variety but the focus here is on the fish- flown in and insanely fresh The fish was on display even in the rolls Not pictured was the sashimi which was some of the best we've ever had period Extremely buttery salmon Amazing tuna selection- loved the appearance of the seared. Even the green tea iced tea was great Service was nice- not sure how necessary the whole order first and show up thing is- could have just ordered from the window read more

Took a trip out to Truckee to try the Cloud Sushi spot. We decided to get a large spread that made for a nice tasting. It's a walk up window with some free, designated parking. There are a handful of tables outside that the team brings food out to. One of the really nice features is that you can get a side of real wasabi! The hawk tuna roll was great, especially with a little dab of wasabi. The last chair roll was quite tasty, very good. The Cloud 9 roll was ok but a bit underwhelming compared to the others. The A5 Albacore sashimi was delicious, very fresh and thick cut. The Moriawase sashimi plate was excellent with some stand out items. The medium fatty tuna was buttery and melt in your mouth,the scallops were excellent and a buttery taste, the salmon was nice and thick cut, the lean tuna was also thick cut and very good. Even the radish and other sides/garnish was fresh and tasty. read more

Delicious! The quality and flavor of this sushi really knocked all of us out. Highly recommended!

This place is exceptional. By far, one of the best meals I've had in Truckee, as a semi-local and frequent visitor. Everything was fresh, well balanced, prepared on time, even with a huge order on a couple hours' notice. The rolls had less rice than I expected (which was welcomed), the wasabi was insane, the fish was exceptionally fresh. I cannot say enough about this place and am craving it already. It's immediately moved to the top of my list in Truckee and we will be back ASAP. read more

Really great sushi spot! Some of the best sushi I've had in a while. And they made things gluten free for me, which was amazing since I have celiac. I wish this place was in Tahoe, I would be there all the time! A great stop for lunch on a very long work day. read more

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! We are from LA where there's tons of great sushi choices, we are spoiled! It can often be a hit or miss when traveling but we gave this place a try based on their reviews, and we were craving sushi- they didn't disappoint! We ordered their Cloud 9, last Chair, Ebi roll, and Miso soup- ALL were delicious! Service is wonderful as well so come support! read more

Excellent fresh fish and LOVE that I can add fresh wasabi to my order. Will definitely return

Sushi in Truckee, why not Lovely spot to watch the trains go by and the sushi was outstanding. We will be back read more

We're regulars, stopping in a few times a month, and the consistency is what keeps us coming back - the fish is always fresh, the food is always on point, and for a mountain town, finding sushi this good is a real treat! We also had Josh do a private sushi dinner for a birthday celebration, and it truly exceeded expectations. If you haven't tried it yet, don't sleep on it. Highly recommend! read more

Incredible food and service. Fish was incredibly fresh and the miso soup was some of the most flavorful i've had ever. My only complaint was that it smelled like upsexy in there read more

Unique concept of pre ordering in the "cloud" for pick up. Considering this is in the mountains and take away, it was excellent. Sushi was all fresh, high quality. Variety of sauces customized to the roll, or dish. Fresh wasabi always a nice touch. read more

Came to truckee found this sushi that had really good reviews but it turned out to be the worst sushi I had tried. Extremely dry, no flavor, no fork/spoon. I got soup and they didn't have spoons. Payed $66 for 3 rolls that had no flavor. Would not come again don't get fooled by the reviews. read more

AMAZING, MUST GO. I cannot explain how incredible this sushi was. The customer service 10/10. Vibes 10/10. Location 10/10. Quality of fish 10/10. BEST SUSHI IN TRUCKEE. hawk tuna roll was amazing. The last chair roll was somehow even better. The sashimi was cut so intentionally and tasted phenomenal. The presentation was exceptional. I cannot say enough good things. Somehow the rolls were so unique and different from your standard restaurant. Outdoor seating, sunshine, quick service, fresh wasabi. Literally zero complaints. I already miss it. I wanted to dap up the chef. I am a huge sushi fan, again this was some of the best I have ever had. Just WOW WOW WOW. I love you cloud sushi read more

We have heard good things about this place and gave it a try on Saturday. We placed an order about 3:00pm, for a 5:30pm pick up. We showed up at 5:30 to a very disorganized restaurant. There was no pick up spot for a pre-ordered meal......so, we stood in line for about 45 minutes before finally being helped. I have no idea why they would let us choose a specific pick up time when ordering, then make you wait in line for your food.......makes no sense!!!!! We ordered a variety of sashimi, nigiri, rolls and salads. The fish was absolutely amazing!!!! However the rolls were small and they forgot one of our rolls (14 bux down the drain) the 3 salads we ordered (sunomono and seaweed) were laughingly small, but delicious. Not sure we will be back to this spot. This is an update to my previous review: the chef/owner (Josh Brown) of Cloud Sushi promptly responded to my review. He went to great lengths to address my concerns, provided a refund for an item not delivered and sent photos of signage which they hope will correct the problems we experienced. As I mentioned in my initial review, the quality of their products is OUTSTANDING!!!!! I can't express how impressed I am by the care and concern Josh has gone to satisfy my concerns. Accordingly, I am changing my rating to "5 stars" and highly recommend y'all give this joint a try. Best of luck to Josh and his crew moving forward. We will definitely eat here next time we are in Truckee. read more

This sushi is fantastic! Cloud Sushi is some of the best I've ever had. We ordered it several times over the summer and it was consistently fresh and fabulous. The price point for the quality is amazing. Also love the preorder system with a lot of pick up time options. Cloud Sushi has definitely become one of our go to places! read more

Meh. Had such high hopes for this place. I ordered the: Small mixed sashimi: sashimi was tasty and without gristle. But, it came in a small square paper take out box and felt like the very small pieces of fish were jammed in sitting amongst a bed of daikon. I don't particularly care to have to pick the daikon off every piece of sashimi before eating it. Daikon is an edible garnish, but shouldn't be sticking to the fish - the fish just seemed tossed in the box. CA Roll: rice is everything in maki-type rolls. It seemed stale. It was tasteless and hard, kinda dry - like it was sitting around in the open air for a couple of hours. Will I be back? Doubt it. Sushi is an 'experience dining' and eating it out of paper cartons is not my idea of a pleasant experience - especially when everything is jammed in a small little box. Perhaps a slightly bigger box where you can present the sashimi better? A longer rectangular box perhaps? *** Update from reply below *** Ok, discount the small paper container. That seems to be the rebuttal focus. I will say, this is the first time I've had to pick off slivers of daikon from my sashimi before eating it. It was a sloppy presentation. Now, about the food quality. Sashimi as mentioned was good albeit tiny slivers - like half the size (each cut) of what one would usually get. Rice. Sorry, it was dry like it was sitting out uncovered for some time (not enough water or vinegar?). It was missing something. And, it was tasteless. As I'm sure you know, it's all about the rice, in rolls. Not being anything but honest to my palette and experience from several maki-type of rolls from SF, LA and all throughout Japan and beyond. Your response seemed a bit snarky. I don't sense you take constructive critique well. When you hear the silence, it'll be too late - at least I'm taking the time to give a thoughtful review, but you keep doing you. Also, to knock a competitor isn't very professional. But, at least their (Americanized) "sushi" rolls, the rice has a little more 'life' in it, but sadly too, still doesn't stack up to places I've been to before. Perhaps, the local palette (for certain sushi fair) is, well, limited and I get that. My intent in this review wasn't malicious, but rather my honest opinion based on past experience around the world - nothing more. Lastly, I'm concerned for the kids (and maybe even adults who dine there and just want a simple sushi/maki roll or anything that has rice in it over there - don't they deserve your best? read more

Haven't been in Truckee on Wednesdays for awhile. Since this place is only open on Wednesday, I had to wait to have the best sushi around. I went on-line about 11:00 AM, started the order process. Now, I usually order the Sashimi box. I couldn't remember the name of it lol. So I looked at my old order to see the name. I Arrived 45 minutes late as the snow was getting heavy and lots of slow traffic. I was Greeted quite warmly. So convenient to order online and just walk up to the window and get your order. Miso Soup: I have to say that I do you love the Moriawase Sashimi Selection box, however, the star of the show was the miso soup. My only real experience with miso soup is the 'all you can eat' shops in Reno. If you have read any of my sushi reviews, having good miso soup is like a crapshoot. You never know what you're going to get. Sometimes watery with almost no flavor, sometimes so salty you could barely drink it. Every 10 or 15 bowls you may get lucky and get the perfect soup. This was not the case today. Here, the Miso soup is made with with leeks and brown butter maitake mushrooms. Perfection is the only way to describe it. It had an amazing Umami after glow that kept me sipping until all that was left was the maitake mushrooms. And those were just delicious. It's sad when you have an hour drive to get home and halfway home you realized that you did not get enough miso soup lol. Well I am sure that will not happen again. Alcohol: They have a few traditional/premium Japanese beers and sake. I do love the setting also, being right next to the tracks. I would love to come back sometime when I have time and sit outside and enjoy some of the alcohol with my sushi. Unfortunately I'm not sure they are going to be there into the summer as I know they will be relocating. Not sure exactly when. I will keep you updated on the when and where As I will come back as often as possible! Yet another amazing lunch! read more

First time trying Cloud Sushi tonight and we definitely will be back!! We tried the Cloud Nine roll, the Pot of Gold roll, the Ebi Fry and Last Chair rolls; The fish was fresh, all the flavors in the rolls perfectly balanced, and I loved all the different textures and crunchy bits. Btw, the fresh wasabi is *the* add-on to spring for, it compliments these delicious rolls perfectly. Honestly am so happy to have such an excellent sushi spot, and am so pumped for our next visit! read more

If you're a sushi lover, cloud sushi on wednesdays are an absolute must! The flavor combinations and the quality of the fish are both top tier. My favorites are the last chair roll, cloud nine roll, and tahoe twelve roll but there's no going wrong. In addition, the people are nice & everything is plated beautifully. It's clear that there is a lot of attention to detail. Very happy to have world class sushi in truckee/Tahoe! My best friend who lives in San Francisco (read: plenty of great sushi options available) is also obsessed. read more

food was great and chef was able to make all sorts of gluten-free tweaks and recommendations!

Ordered on Monday, picked up on Wednesday- the only date you can. Loved the seaweed salad, friend loved the plant based roll and I got the popular order that is called Last Chair roll. I got there early to pick up and when they saw me made sure I got my order first. As good as anything I have had in SF. It's abit more expensive here but we are in a tourist town and everything is more expensive here especially food sadly. read more
