    Stopped here after seeing this spot while visiting in the area. Although I do eat some sushi, I was feeling like some Thai flavor. I came here on a weekday (Tuesday). I could see before entering the business was pretty full. I was not starving so having to wait quite a while after being seated by the host wasn't bad. I found it to be bad service after being seen by the host and my server not stopping by (not a big place) to acknowledge the delayed service. I do have to give credit to my server that she did apologize for the long wait when she was ready to serve me. I arrived just before sundown and when I entered the only spot that look comfortable was the booth/chair table seating. I thought it was comfortable until I sat on the booth side and the table is just a tad higher than I thought it should be. I always find anything that I have to raise my elbows at chest level to put my silverware to my plate is just not comfortable and annoying. The corner I sat in had poor lighting so trying to review the menu was a challenge. I even took my glasses off to see if that was the reason. I looked up and there was no lighting above me nor on the table. The ambiance looking around the room is nice . The bar is eye catching with the pretty colors and shapes of the bottles that were displayed. A plus, is the many TV's around the room. Great for the sports enthusiast. The food was ok. I ordered the Soft Shell Crab and Thai Wings. I enjoyed the Soft Shell Crab, with its light, breaded crust. The wings were plentiful, meaty, but a bit overcooked/burnt edges of the pieces. Apparently it's a good place with people/families enjoying the food. So I hope to have the same experience the next time I visit. This business is part of the strip mall. So plenty of parking if you can't get front parking.

    I've been seeing this Thai-sushi fusion place all over Instagram, mainly because their cocktails kept popping up on my feed. And yes, before anyone judges me, I swear I'm not an alcoholic -- the drinks just looked that good. My husband and I went for one of our little dinner dates. The place is clean, simple, and we were seated right away since it wasn't too busy. Sushi-wise, everything we ordered was pretty standard. Nothing really stood out, but it wasn't bad either -- just... sushi. Now the drinks? That's where they got me. I tried the Nashi martini, the lychee martini (basically the Nashi but with lychee liquor), and of course my usual lemon drop. All three were solid. I appreciate a bartender who doesn't skimp on the alcohol -- everything had a nice balance of booze and sweetness. Will I go back? Maybe. If I do, it'll probably be for another round of those drinks.

    Came here for lunch on a weekday and it was pretty happy. Unfortunately they don't have lunch deals and happy hour starts at 2 pm. We ordered two sushi rolls and they came really quick! It was very delicious and large. I ordered the mango roll which tastes very unique while my dad ordered a fried roll which was cooked amazingly. The service was amazing!

    After all these years of being a patron at Etcetera, this place continues to be my favorite go-to sushi restaurant for top quality fish, fancy cocktails, and attentive service. I can roll in in my party dress or in my sweatpants yet never feel like I'm out of place. Hubby and I dined in on Valentine's Day and sat at the sushi bar in the presence of the greatest sushi chef in the IE--Isaac. You can always expect generous cuts of sashimi and atheistically pleasing presentations of sushi and rolls. You really do get what you pay for--quality, variety, ambiance, and service.

    Amazing food and it was our first time here!!! Dragon roll, lobster roll, crunch roll, Philly roll and udon were so freaking YUMMMMY!! And the BEST service from TAELOR! Thanks Tae for taking care of us and giving us suggestions! Definitely coming back soon

    Crispy tuna
    Nuran S.

    I really enjoyed Etcetera, it was the best sushi I've had in a while. The fish was incredibly fresh, and the presentation? Absolutely stunning. I was so impressed I wanted to shout, "spectacular, give me 14 of them right now!" For appetizers we got the edamame, crispy tuna and yellowtail with jalapeños - all perfect! The rolls were a great size and stuffed with fish! I highly recommend the el narco roll and the Sundays best roll. Prices were great too, worth it! Each bite was perfection, loved all the saucy details and commitment to quality.

    New menu! Some new items and some new names

    So I gigged a star We love the food and most of the servers Haley and Jessie are awesome. But there are a couple "hostesses" that ALWAYS have a sour demeanor and pissy face. She was there today 5/25 at opening. She's there a lot. Not someone you want to be the face of your establishment.

    Plenty of booth seating
    Veronica H.

    A friend and I came just before opening at 12p and we were the first ones in. Staff was very friendly our server Quincy was great! She had awesome recommendations and was very attentive (she had us drinking old fashioned cocktails and shooting oysters at noon) Everything we ordered was delicious and very fresh I recommend the spicy garlic edamame, rainbow roll, salmon and yellowtail sashimi were super buttery. The place quickly filled up for lunch, the booth seating against the wall is very comfortable and there is plenty of seating to accommodate groups of any size. If you are in the area definitely check this place out!

    Philly and dragon roll
    Jacqueline C.

    Sushi is always 10/10, service also 10/10. Ambiance is great as well. Kind of a hidden gem next to Albertsons. The Philly roll is always a must. We tried the dragon roll and the fresh on foothill today. Dragon roll just became my favorite it was soooo good. Absolutely will be returning

    Hamachi Crudo
    Jen C.

    Hamachi Crudo is absolutely delicious. Citrus sauce w baby tomatoes, avocado, red onions, and jalepeno... and I am missing a few ingredients but it's delicious!! Highly recommend

    Baked mussels was real good
    Nate T.

    Usually big groups like the dinner party of 9 we had are tough to get everything right but our server Taylor got it spot on from the beginning. He was very attentive and gave plenty of recommendations for the whole table. I'm half Thai so naturally I had to try a few of their bites and I am pleasantly surprised at the quality and presentation of the food. For the taste, I was shocked at how good everything was. So much food at the table I couldn't get all the pics but the highlights were the Thai sausage, the lamb, and the crunchy fried chicken. Sushi was quite good but the table was leaning more towards rolls which I don't really do cause all the sauces hiding the quality of the fish. I'll definitely come back if I'm in the area.

I spent the day soaking in mineral baths, walking through the beautiful grounds, and just letting the stress melt away.
