Went back to this restaurant today and really disappointed by the low quality and high price. Fish tasted like still frozen and bloody. Never going back again. read more

EBISU - Yellow tail - Japanese Near Me - Elk Grove, California

LOVE EBISU! We called the day before Mother's Day and were able to secure a table ( for a 5 p.m. seating). We were glad we did because at 5:30 the place was filled!! Plenty of attentive wait staff and sushi staff greeted us warmly. Owner, Daisy, comped a Mother's Day small bottle of Prosecco for us. Such a lovely gesture! The meal was delicious, fresh and plentiful. Our favorite, a Rainbow Roll, was absolutely the BEST we have ever tasted ( including New York, L.A. Chicago, and S.F.) EBISU's ambiance is on point for the comfortable seating, lighting, teak sushi bar, private dining areas for larger parties, and smaller tables. We LOVE the dinnerware! Beautiful plating makes the experience all the more exquisite. We are always pleased with EBISU! T & T read more

This place used to be our "go to" Japanese restaurant in Elk Grove. The food was great, service was friendly, and ambiance was inviting. Since the new owners took over, the food is substandard with main dish portions looking more like appetizers, the service is poor, and the environment is uninviting. The presentation of the food used to be a big attraction. But now it gives off more of a lower class vibe. Rumor has it that the place is turning into a buffet. To be honest, it already feels like a buffet environment, and not in a good way. We will be looking for a new Japanese place. read more

Please try this place! I was pleasantly surprised and it was great. My new favorite sushi place and it's so close to where I live. Service is good. They do a great job checking up on customers and the owner works super hard. Very fresh and we finished the food so fast we ordered more after. Ignore those bad reviews, they are recently new. They are hiring if you want fast service but they always update you when your food is almost done read more

Very poor experience. Took over an hour to receive our food on a slow night. Server looked like he smoked a fat bowl in between his shift. Couldn't remember the orders, spilled food on seats, and was fumbling over himself. Food was cold and served simply unpleasant. The quality of the sashimi was suspect. It was tough and stringy. The sushi roll had a shrimp tail in the middle of the roll and another roll had shrimp that didn't have all the shell removed. It tasted bitter and tough. read more

I've been here twice so far and I must say this is probably my new favorite sushi spot in Elk Grove! Service was great both times but it also wasn't very busy either. Food comes out very quick and the fish is soooo fresh. The workers are very kind and accommodating. I love their double toro roll and they offer the fresh pickled wasabi here! I would highly recommend Ebisu if you're craving sushi! read more

First time here. The service was amazing. I didn't get her name but she is super sweet and nice. She was able to accommodate my request for the wagyu uni roll. It's the best item we ordered. Everything is good as well. Truffle hamachi, double otoro, salmon lover, tuna crunch were all the items we ordered. read more

It's a well decorated restaurant with two smaller rooms for bigger groups. Service was friendly. The meal for just me and my 11 year old son was $200 plus tax and tip (which yes is a lot and not really normal but we do love sushi and unfortunately are piggies. I wish we both didn't have fancy tastebuds). We ordered: 2 sodas Edamame beans: could've been more seasoned but kiddo enjoyed. Fried oysters: yummy and not greasy they didn't have the tangy brown sauce I'm used to. One roll with tempura shrimp and salmon on top: very tasty Double toro roll: fish was fresh and melty. They put ponzu sauce over it which I wished they didn't and shisho leaves on top. 2 orders of uni nigiri for $30 each: the best uni I've ever tasted. My son tried it for the first time and loved it. This will ruin other uni for me bc I thought I didn't like uni and I've had some that was super fresh it was still moving. And I still didn't like it! This uni from Japan was sweet and creamy and didn't have that weird ocean funk taste. Wow! Escolar nigiri wasn't that great. Not buttery and pretty cold even after I asked for it to be lightly torched. Salmon belly nigiri was ok. Not as buttery/ melty in my mouth as I wanted it to be. Unagi nigiri was delicious. We live an hour away and don't visit Elk Grove often but would come back for the uni! And I'd like to try the unagi clay pot and luxury nigiri. Lots of things on the menu for those who don't like sushi. read more

Top tier restaurant experience with the best service ever. Food quality is amazzziiinggggg. I'm shocked this exists in Elk Grove.

Delicious and very fast. Servers were very welcoming as we (Caucasian) were in the minority. It was lovely listening to all the Japanese spoken around us. read more

We dug into the Double Toro roll before we took a picture. It was the star of our meal and that is saying a lot as the other two dishes were excellent. This wasn't on the menu but on the dry erase board. Check out their specials before you order! Also excellent were the Hokkaido Roll and the Taco Sushi (I could have the name reversed). Not anything to do with the food but the bathroom was clean clean. Yay!! read more

I come for lunch regularly since it's walking distance from work for me, and I highly recommend Ebisu. Sushi quality is outstanding (try their rainbow roll). I have also tried their katsu dish and chimichurri steak lunch. High quality, tender, and well-cooked meats that make a lunch worthwhile. Service is very friendly! Always welcoming to familiar faces. Solid lunch spot that I will continue to constantly return to. Cannot comment much on diner. As for ambiance, relaxed and casual. read more

Well color me impressed! This place was recommended to me by a co worker and I have been on a huge sushi kick and have been wanting to try new places. We stopped in on a Friday around 6:30 and didn't have to wait. We were immediately seated and brought waters. We passed on any other drinks and loved over the menu. We started with the Gyoza and sizzling albacore. The gyoza came out nice and hot and I really enjoyed the sauce it came with. Albacore is usually not my thing but this plate was amazing! It came out sizzling and then there was a sauce that was poured on it which made it even steamier and sizzlier. It was a fantastic appetizer and I would absolutely get that again. I also got the Ebisu roll and the Hokkaido roll. The Ebisu roll was four large pieces and the outside was deeps fried. It was good and interesting but I will stick to cold rolls. The Hokkaido was delicious and I really loved the sauces on top. The service was prompt and friendly throughout our whole visit. I really enjoyed dinner here and can't wait to go back and try other menu items, desserts included! read more

Great food and service. Will definitely go to this fine restaurant again. Fresh salmon is the key to a good restaurant.

Five stars for this hidden gem in an Elk Grove strip mall! First of all, the decor inside the restaurant was beautiful and the vibes were immaculate. The modern and clean aesthetic made me feel like I was at a trendy sushi spot in Vancouver or something, not Elk Grove. I had my kids with me so we got seated in a private little corner which was nice. My husband recognized the chef and he hooked it up with some special dishes that weren't on the menu. I've been obsessed with scallops lately so he made a special scallop plate for me too. He even made my daughter a rice and seaweed roll. So nice! There were a lot of options for rolls and we got the Elk Grove special and Hokkaido rolls, which were both delicious. We also got the lamb lollipops which were a nice balance to all of the sashimi plates. We finished the meal with amaebi nigiri which was a perfect ending to this meal. Loved my dining experience here and will definitely make my way out here to dine again! read more

The service is friendly our server seemed a bit shy but served us well. The food took a little long to come out, and the main course came out before the appetizer. However the fish was great especially the pepper fin on the appetizer. We enjoyed the presentation of the food, it looked very neat and appealing. The super combo was such a good deal at 48$ especially when the cuts of fish are nice and thick. The white tuna was the best bite with the chili on top. It was so soft and melted like butter. The calamari was good, it had a nice char to it. Overall I enjoyed my experience, will come again. read more

EBISU - We loved the volcano roll especially (bottom right). - Japanese Near Me - Elk Grove, California

I've been to be here several times since they opened. The food is always fresh and put together so nicely. Their rice plates are very generous. It's one of our favorite sushi restaurants in elk Grove. The restaurant itself is very clean and spacious. I absolutely love how clean their bathrooms are. They have a small area where you can have a semi private dinner. What I love mostly about Ebisu is their staff. We were there last night, and my son started to choke on a large bite. He was fine, but obviously freaked out and crying. Andy, our server, was so sweet and brought him some candy to cheer him up. It's the small things like that that really make a difference. Also, the owner remembered my name from the waitlist and thanked me by my name. Again, it's so small things that really provide great customer service. As long as they continue to have amazing customer service and amazing food, we will definitely be regulars there. read more

All the food I've had so far has been excellent. Especially the spicy edamame and the barbecue calamari and fried oysters.

My son wanted to either visit the conveyor sushi place in Arden or Ebisu for his birthday dinner. My wife and I decided Ebisu because feeding two 19 year old boys conveyor sushi would've broke my wallet. This was our first time at Ebisu and we were seated right away on a Wednesday evening. The restaurant is located where the old AYCE Mexican restaurant used to be and decorated nicely with tables spaced out so you're not crowded. There's a sushi bar if that's your thing but we sat at a comfortable table against the wall in front of a big screen tv and they were very accommodating when I asked if they could switch the station to game 3 of the Nugget / Heat finals so the boys and my wife can watch the game while we ate. Three of us ordered tempura udon, one ramen and one sesame chicken dinner. I ordered a Volcano roll and a recommended Hokkaido roll as our appetizer. The Volcano was definitely not active and rather dormant because I couldn't detect any heat at all but both were tasty. The birthday boy said the udon soup base was good and I was pleasantly surprised a bountiful of tempura accompanied it. My sesame chicken was served with a mix of buttered veggies and that threw me off when I first bit into them and of course with miso soup. My wife said her ramen was flavorful with plenty of kamaboko, pork & veggies but said she wished it had more ramen noodles. I sampled her soup and it was okay to me. Overall, Ebisu didn't disappoint but didn't wow me either. It was....."Okay." My son said he'd come back. I think we all would come back but probably not as a first choice for me. I do have to mention all of the dinnerware was ceramic on the night we went. Even a ceramic bowl and spoon for my miso soup which you don't normally see anymore.....well at least I don't see it because I'm one of those that love hole in the wall places that serve good food with good portions. I'd take good food over opulence and manners anytime.....all the time! Gochisosama! read more

Love this place.sushi can't be fresher than this! Staff is friendly. Takeout or dine in. Best Elk Grove sushi!

Very disappointed with this place. I ordered the unagi don, and it was full of bones and had a strong, unpleasant fishy smell. It was barely edible. On top of that, the service was rude. Definitely not coming back. read more

Ordered four items to go for dinner. The poke salad and salmon rice plate had the biggest failings. The fish in the salad had variety and was dressed well. However the fish pieces were like scrap leftovers and were not treated very well. The sizes were not uniform and not cut through completely. The salmon was grilled well and not over cooked. However the seasoning was lacking. It shouldn't be overwhelmed with salt or sugar but it needs some expression of flavor. It was ok that the mixed vegetables on the side was lightly seasoned, but when combined with white rice and the bland salmon the overall dish comes out flat. read more
