    The cost and ingredients of the roll
    Bianca G.

    First time customers, walked in and 1/2 the chairs at the sushi bar are up on the counter. The seating at the sushi counter is pointless, they are regular chairs and the top of the counter is at least 5'4". Basically you can't see the items in the cooler nor the chef prepare the food. It seemed like they were cramming a lot of stuff in the entrance, ice cream freezer, a drink cooler, a huge wheel to spin on your birthday. They had no diet soda available either. My customary roll is the caterpillar roll, which is cooked eel, cucumber, avocado and some crab. So, I had to order the upgraded version to include all those pieces, where other sushi restaurants have them as standard. The reason it's called the caterpillar roll is because is is normally covered in avocado so it looks bright green like a caterpillar. I've had chefs use cucumber to make antennas too. Upon receiving my roll I could not figure out if it even had eel inside it. I had the server take it back and ask a chef. The chef even had to examine the roll to see if there was eel. You'll see in the picture it is mostly crab and there's a minuscule dark section which is the eel. There was a single piece of cucumber (string) in the whole roll, I would randomly find it in one bite of my pieces. You can't see in the picture I pulled it out of the end piece so you can't see the thickness. Lastly, as mentioned the caterpillar is usually bright green, this roll had slivers of avocado on top. VERY disappointed and will never come back.

    Good service and good prices for sushi! Our server was kind and attentive. The sushi came out pretty fast and the quality of fish is good

    The rolls are always on point and delicious. The service always delivers and come around to ask if need anything on multiple occasions when I come visit. I always come back. The ambiance nice and has great music.

    One of our occasional date spots. I'm not gonna lie, the first time I tried this place years ago-- I did not like it. But, since being with my bf... he said he liked it, so I gave it another chance and it hasn't disappointed since... other than raising their prices (ugh, inflation). The restaurant is nice... but not super fancy nice. I don't feel pressure to dress a certain way coming here so I like that. They keep it clean, plenty of available seating on both sides of the restaurant, as well as the sushi bar, and the outside patio. Host/Hostesses are always quick to greet you and get you seated as soon as possible. I've never waited too long, but I don't usually stick around if they (any restaurant) tell me it's an hour or more wait (if I'm starving). The longest I've waited here was probably 40mins... but we kept ourselves entertained. As for service at the table? I've never had an issue with any of our waiters/waitresses. Good job. When it's the two of us, we usually stick to the same type of rolls. He always goes for anything with Tuna, I go for Salmon (raw). I've switched between the K-Roll (name has changed from Kaylee or something) and the Psycho roll. They are basically the same thing honestly... just one has crab, one doesn't. He did Mura Mura this time, usually he does Marilyn Monroe. Again, there's no difference. All of their rolls are pretty similar with the slightest difference between each. I've tried a few others when I dined with my siblings but I can't remember what they were... all similar I'm sure, but all good. Oh, anything with thin lemon slices are good too. For appetizers, my favorite is the Stuffy Mushrooms. I prefer it without the fish flakes though. & I wish there was actually more of the pepper in there... it's just one tiny little piece. Edamame is always a good snack and they have different flavor options. The Mussels are okay here... not the best so it's not a must for me. Can't recall anything else at the moment. Anyway, we like I Love Sushi.

    Super sunomono salad
    Jenna g.

    We came at 6pm on a Saturday. It was bustling but we didn't have to wait for a table which was great. There are rules posted all over the walls around the waiting area which is a little off-putting but I get it, people can be wild. The dining room and bathroom were clean and comfortable. Our servers were friendly and prompt. We ordered the super sunomono for starters. Very yummy! For rolls we got the wrecked, sushi mafia, and the nutty. All of them were great. I like that you can eat each slice in one bite and all were very flavorful. Can't wait to come back.

    Always good service and fresh Sushi... Never disappointed!!

    Great food and service. I love going here for sushi. Place is always busy, but wait times are rare.

    I love I love sushi!! The super jack black roll is my FAVORITE. So yummm. But besides that, every time I've went, we have been seated fairly quick! The workers are nice and welcoming as well. When ordering, you scan the QR code for the menu and the server takes your order! Don't really like the set up of the menu but it is what it is, could be neater and easier to navigate. All the sushi I've had here has been good. Haven't had a bad experience yet :)

    Tuna seaweed salad , tuna steak animal style
    Jaycee T.

    Love coming here, their sushi is always good. Service is quick and friendly. One of the reasons why I love coming here is because of their sauce! I love spicy and they come through with the spicy sauce, I believe it's called 911 sauce and the 1822 sauce. It's a blended mixture of green chilis and the spiciest one is topped off with a capsicum hot sauce. So bomb, need to have it at every sushi spot.

    Seaweed tuna salad. Supposed to be spicy, it wasn't.
    Mary T.

    This is one of our go to sushi spots. They have a variety of sushi rolls and I like that they separate them by groups. For example, raw, cooked, salmon, tuna, torched etc.. easier to find what you want. Can b a lil overwhelming when u cant decide tho but for sure you'll find something. Love their 911 spicy sauce! I always get a spicy sushi roll. Usually with a side of spicy tuna/seaweed salad. This time we ordered the fried shrimp stuffed crab bomb things and total rip off. It's like two shrimp cut n spread apart stuff with imitation crab and got like mayo on it. Got the price it was not worth it! Never getting that again. Also ordered nigiri combo that came with miso soup and salad. The service for take out is good. They gave me a call when it was ready.

    Spicy Scallop Roll
    Taryn K.

    Our waitress balanced attentiveness and space very well. She was friendly and efficient. Restaurant is nice, though the first bench I sat on sloped downwards, the second did not. We sat on the table side away from the counter and noise level was typical for any restaurant. If you like tempura they had a ton of options on the menu. I tried to order rolls that would hopefully be mostly gluten free. If you like spicy the cinco de mayo was good. Spicy scallops were excellent to me, husband said it was only okay. Tofu roll was my favorite of everything. Salmon skin was also really good. I would not order the Gaga roll again. I did not like the miso soup, but I did like the salad.

    The front

    Yes its called I love sushi but this place makes me never want to eat sushi again. I ordered the cali fried roll with spicy mayo and they put teriyaki sauce on top and the spicy mayo on the side but it wasn't in the description that they add the teriyaki sauce. The "spicy mayo" did not look like it had any mayonnaise and it was not spicy at all. The fried part of the sushi was very flavorless and oily, I couldn't taste what was in the sushi because of the fried part being so bland. I asked the waiter if I can just order the regular California roll instead and they said there is nothing they can do and proceeded to charge me. Very disappointing that they could not fulfill my accommodations or requests or even suggest something to make me feel better about paying for something I didn't like. The environment itself was decent but was not authentic. As soon as I left I felt sick and got food poisoning. 1/10 would not recommend and will never go again.

    Spicy salmon salad
    Jason S.

    Came here this week for lunch with a co worker and really enjoyed it! Service was outstanding and everyone here is super friendly and would have me coming back just for the service. Inside not your typical sushi ambiance but loved the great music and upbeat attitudes working here. Food was really good I had the spicy poke salad and thought this was a 5 out of 5. I would for sure come back and wasn't expecting to find a unique sushi spot like this in Fresno but sure glad I did. I would for sure be back.

    We've been to Shobu twice now, and it's quickly become one of our favorite Japanese restaurants…read more What I love most is the variety on the menu. Whether you're craving sushi, teriyaki, or ramen, they really have something for everyone. The sushi and sashimi are incredibly fresh -- honestly some of the freshest fish we've had at any sushi restaurant. It tastes like the chef went out and caught it that morning. The 14-piece sashimi platter with a couple of rolls was more than enough for two people, and everything was excellent quality. The ramen is also fantastic, but fair warning: the bowls are HUGE, so definitely come hungry. Their garlic edamame is absolutely addictive, and we really enjoyed the poke in the seaweed poke salad, though the dish does lean very heavily on the seaweed, so just keep that in mind before ordering. Cassidy is new to the restaurant and waited on us. an Shewas wonderful -- super friendly, attentive, patient, and just genuinely great service all around. The only downside was the new menu design. The font is extremely tiny, printed on a small laminated sheet, and honestly very difficult to read. Hopefully they make the text larger in the future because the food itself is outstanding. Overall, highly recommend Shobu if you're looking for fresh sushi, excellent sashimi, hearty ramen, and great service.

The moment we walked in and sat down to our table, we did't feel welcomed. Our server was very short with us and seemed annoyed. Initially, they were pushy on having us order assuming we have been there before. It was our first time and we didn't even get a chance to look at the menu yet as we just sat down. Throughout the service, our server never offered us water or came to check up on us. It was an off vibe like they were having a bad day and it resonated to us. The food was a big letdown. We ordered the agedashi tofu, earthquake roll, big boy, fireball roll, and a sashimi appetizer. Each item we ordered had an issue. The agedashi tofu was super bland and the broth didn't pair well with it. I've had this dish several times at other locations and this wasn't up to par. The rolls were drowning in sauce and ruined their texture. The rice was also overcooked and very soggy. Soggy rice drowning in sauce is not a good combination. Lastly, the sashimi appetizer was served lukewarm. Each piece of fish had a mushy texture instead of being firm, and it didn't taste fresh. Perhaps serving them on top of ice to keep it cold would help. Plus, the miso soup was very salty. Overall, it was a very disappointing first visit, and unfortunately, I don't see myself coming back.
