Small place with great prices. Rolls are reasonably priced $9.99-12.99. One waitress but her service was quick and was friendly. Delicious food. Batter on my ton Katsu was crunchy, and my sashimi was delicious. If you want to have Japanese at a low cost, this is the place. I'll come back read more

I begrudgingly give this wonderful place a great review, only because we don't want a ton of people to go there because we love it so much. Honestly, it is so good and the people who work there are so amazingly nice. Their crunchy jalapeño roll is to die for, and we all love their spicy garlic edamame. My kids are convinced they make the best fried rice. It is always made fresh to order. The best small local gem. And they treat kids so well. Our kids have been going since they were babies and still love it! read more

the sushi rolls are incredibly fresh and well-crafted. The place is clean and the presentation of each plate is very artistic. It is a good spot for a high-quality Japanese dinner. read more

Place was very tiny. You would smell mold as you open the door. The lady serving was kinda rude. She smiled at the guy customer though.‍ the food was ok. read more

One of our favorite restaurants in Discovery Bay. Small inside, with a few tables and Sushi bar. The service is friendly and efficient. The food is consistently good. The tempura is always tasty and the rolls are fantastic. They do a lot of takeout, but dining at the restaurant is very worthwhile. read more

This was a small, hole-in-the-wall type Japanese restaurant. We happened upon it for lunch and had a great little meal. The waitress was kind and attentive. I started with a glass of Coke, but something was a little off with the syrup balance, it was really syrupy. We started with the miso soup, which had a very miso-y flavor and was delicious. We also had the gyoza, which were steamed and very tasty. We split 3 sushi rolls, which were small and basic but appropriately priced and very tasty. We had the volcano roll, which had an interesting spicy sauce on top that had an almost tingly sensation to it. We also had the Hawaii roll which was very fresh, and the Rainbow which was also fresh but could have benefitted from some lemon to squeeze on top. Overall, a good place for lunch and good for the price. read more

The food was very good but the service also set it over the top. I was greeted and well taken care of, even though it was a to-go order. They made sure I had everything I needed and went above and beyond. The sushi was fresh and delicious! I ordered the Boston roll ( had salmon avocado and tobiko) and the other was caterpillar roll (green onion, tobiko, salmon and avocado). I have a love for salmon! Lol I will be back again! Thank you!! read more

Love this place ! Go to sushi spot and they're always attentive and have amazing service! The place is not huge but that's ok, it gives hole-in-the-wall delicious vibes. If you have yet to try it I highly suggest. We love the staff and the dish is always fresh! read more

Food is actually good, nothing special, but definitely satisfactory if you feel like sushi! I've ordered out and dined in several times and it's always good, im not here for the food. I'm here to review the service... I have dined in several times, and most of the time service is okay, never great, just always average. The last 4 times, have been extremely rude service unfortunately. After the first time I thought maybe it was just a one off and she was just having a bad day. But after 4 times of extremely rude service. I can't bring myself to go back again. We ordered sushi every time, and when we asked for chop sticks, because they weren't provided, she acted irritated. Then sushi arrived with no trays for soy sauce, we asked for 3 and she brought 1. When I re asked for the remaining 2, she literally rolled her eyes and growled I was shocked. I was asking for something that should have been provided to us automatically l, and she was very irritated that I asked. I was a server for many years so I understand the challenges and always do my best to be a good customer, and tip accordingly. But after giving it serveral tries, the growling at me for asking for something necessary to my meal, is what did it for me lol that was a first, but made it my last time there :( read more

As a new discovery bay resident I was super excited to see that there was a sushi restaurant in town. We saw it on the map and ordered for take out. We got 3 rolls and a chicken teriyaki entree. Even though it was a holiday, it only took 25 mins for them to make our food so that was nice. Unfortunately we didn't like anything that we ordered. The rice on all the rolls was mushy. Both the red dragon and crazy monkey had a very sweet flavor, zero spicy which they both said they had. The miso soup was so concentrated, it almost had too much flavor? Very salty. Plus I got literally all broth, no seaweed, a couple small pieces of green onions and maybe 2 tiny specks of tofu. I didn't personally eat the chicken teriyaki but my husband said it wasn't good either. Possibly it would have been better dining in but i don't think we will risk the money to try again. read more

On the way to Bethel Island I went here for lunch. Place was clean decent, food was good, but the reason I gave it a 5 star is because of our server was amazing extremely friendly and attentive. Sometimes it's not always just the food, but the fantastic service changes everything read more

Really solid Japanese food. Bento boxes with multiple options. Age tofu and other tasty appetizers. Maki, hand rolls and sashimi too

We used to love this place even though it's expensive. Very friendly service at lunch time! However, the last 3 times we got there shortly after their posted opening time of 1130, they were closed. Two of these times we went next door for Chinese and afterwards they were still not open! We're taking our sushi business elsewhere. read more

You walk in and you're greeted by Sophie and if you're lucky, there's a place to sit and dine with the six tables. The menu, tables, walls, windows, and floors are sticky and questionably clean. You kind of wonder and hope the kitchen is clean as well. But guess what? This is our closest neighborhood Japanese sushi restaurant. It's not the best sushi, nor the best bento box but service is always friendly and welcoming. We eat here at least once a week and the phone is always off the hook ringing for to-go orders. My go to are dragon rolls (golden, black) and chicken teriyaki and katsu. Tempura is always good here too. I know prices have gone up through the years but service is always good and everyone in there is working hard to prepare your meal. Give this place a try and make sure you tip them well. We need them to stay open. read more

Matsuyama Restaurant - NFL draft day + sushi - Japanese Near Me - Discovery Bay, California

As long time patron for this establishment. I can say the food is fresh, your server greets you with a smile and remembers your order. Though Chinese owned you still feel the ambiance of being in Japan. Always try the specials. The super rainbow roll is always my go to dish. read more

This is a very hole-in-the-wall sushi joint. Located in the same plaza as Safeway, McDonald's, Starbucks, and few other stores. There are not many sushi restaurants in the area (specially in Discovery Bay) since it's basically in the middle of nowhere! I was in the area getting my 1st COVID vaccine at Safeway and found this spot on Yelp and decided to check it out. I didn't really have high standards for this place. We came at 3:30pm (reopening time) and were quickly welcomed and seated immediately. All the staff were wearing masks. Tables were clean and distanced apart. Open for take-out, delivery, or dine-in. Very small, quaint place. GYOZA - pan fried dumplings - $6.95 -- pretty good! SALMON SASHIMI 5pcs - $10.95 -- thick cut and tasted fresh! We devoured these so quickly and placed another order! Worth it! RED ROSE (spicy tuna, deep-fried shrimp, asparagus, crab mayo, cream cheese, scallop, super white tuna, tobiko, onion & spicy sauce) - $16.95 -- my fave roll! It had a nice crunchy texture and everything tasted yummy! I even ordered another plate! Presentation is so thoughtful! The staff created a flower tree on this one. Soo cute!! (From looking at the other Yelp pictures, I feel special lol). CATERPILLAR ROLL (salmon roll w/ green onion, avocado & tobiko) - $6.95 -- was not mind blowing but fair and does the job. I would come back if I was in the area. I think I'll stop by again when I get my 2nd vaccine in the area. :) #supportsmallbusinesses read more

I haven't left a lot of reviews lately, but I felt the need to after ordering sushi from here last night. Was not a fan. I ordered 3 different rolls and some chicken fried rice. The rolls were very small and did not seem to have much flavor in any of them. The chicken fried rice was also very bland. I ordered door dash to the house. I've ordered sushi several times from several different Japanese restaurants, but none that seemed to lack as much flavor as this offer. read more

Always fresh and delicious ! Such a friendly staff , the ladies are always smiling and welcoming . The Lion roll is extraordinary ! Really great menu and decent prices, this is my go-to Sushi spot ! read more

Great food great service. Fair prices. We have been going for years! Try the volcano roll and scallop roll! The baked mussels are great too!

Sushi rice was mushy (cooked with too much water), the rolls all tasted and looked the same. Nothing spectacular by any means. The family size salad we ordered was missing. On the positive side, we ordered a chicken bento box for a kiddo and it was good. Huge portions, so we mostly ate that instead of the $200 worth of sushi ordered for our group. It was overall a bummer and we won't be back. read more

Never ! They don't care about customer or allergies ! Received someone else avocado roll next to my highly allergic family roll ! Never got the tempura veggie ! Called and told to com pick it up ! When they messed up read more

Walk in today w/ a family of 5 because we are new to the area and wanted to support the local but obviously when we walk in and told her a party of 5 she didn't want to accommodate us when there was plenty of tables. We were obviously judge and look down by this waitress today. But you know what thanks for looking down at my family of 5 because my children knows how to act right and walk away. Goodbye never ever pay a penny or put our valuable feet thru this door call matsuyama thank you to NEKO SHUSHI! Sorry matsuyama just lost a valuable customers. Lol! Treat everyone equal next time. Don't ever judge! read more

Matsuyama Restaurant - Matsuyama turn us down we were obviously looked down. when one door close there's plenty of door that opens. Bye matsuyama hello! NEKO - Japanese Near Me - Discovery Bay, California

Matsuyama is awesome! And not just because it's the only Japanese restaurant in Disco Bay...! My nephew loves all things fish, whether it be catching them, eating them, or watching shows on TV. So after an early morning of fishing, we headed off to eat some. Rolls: I'm a huge fan of rolls, so I ordered the red dragon roll and the crunchy scallop roll. Unique and delicious! Combo Bento boxes: We also ordered a couple of combo boxes which include soup, salad, California rolls and your choice of two entrees from the list posted on the wall (lots to choose from). Great value at $12.95 for quite a bit of food. If you've worked up an appetite, this is the way to go! Sashimi: My nephew didn't make a peep while he gobbled up his sashimi. We asked if they could make 1/2 salmon and 1/2 tuna and they happily obliged. There is something here for everyone. Great service too. Can't wait to come back and try some more of their unique rolls! read more

I came in to try this place because I stop by the shopping area every once in a while, when I'm on the road for work. The restaurant is small and subtle, which I prefer in my sushi restaurants, shows that they've chosen quality over quantity. It's a nice little spot tucked away. This is my first review because my experience was very memorable. The waitress was very rude and dismissive. Definitely did not get the warm welcome another gentleman received picking up an order. I get it, sometimes it's slow and you don't want to wait on people but at least meet half of the energy of my greetings to the staff and not seem like I'm interrupting your cell phone time across from me. However, besides this service I received, which may be an off day that I happened to walk into, the food was decent. The California roll was surprisingly good. They don't shredded their imitation crab. You get chunks of it, and the avocado was perfectly ripe, which has so much more flavor. It doesn't have too much mayo, if any, so that may affect the taste for some people, but I enjoyed it. The sashimi was very good, Salmon melted in your mouth, and the tuna was pretty tender and fresh. Overall, the sashimi stood out, and I would definitely try more of their offerings. The chicken katsu was alright, nothing to rave about, but I personally would not try it again. I initially rated this a 2* but the food was the saving grace in this review, and that's what we really want to know at the end of the day. Is the quality of the food good enough to try. I would definitely want to come back, but it may be a while due to the service I received, but like I said, it could have been an off day for everyone. read more

Matsuyama Restaurant - Combination box with chicken katsu, California roll, and sashimi - Japanese Near Me - Discovery Bay, California

The sushi here is good. The problem is that as their prices grow, their rolls shrink. I ordered two rolls, the Crunchy Scallop and the Bad Boy, my total was $34. Just look at the size of these rolls! I think this was my last trip here. read more

5 stars for this sushi restaurant. My wife and I came yesterday for lunch and we had a great experience. We ordered their garlic edamame, volcano roll, caterpillar roll, and tempura. I loved the breading of their tempura because it was crunchy and full of flavor. I also loved their volcano roll; the crab filling was creamy while the tempura flakes on top gave this nice texture. Their prices are super affordable which is a huge plus for us. Their customer service is excellent! We will definitely start coming here for our sushi fix! read more

Matsuyama Restaurant - Japanese Near Me - Discovery Bay, California

Not the best Cucumber roll rice falling apart and the taste was off. It's like they can make sushi for a 7-11

PSA - they're open during covid! I regret not taking a photo of their hours (which aren't updated on yelp) because when we drove by on a Sunday they were open even though it says closed on yelp. Their combination box is really worth it!!! We got salmon teriyaki and sashimi. Sashimi wasn't the highest/freshest quality but really good for the price. We'd get this again and maybe try some other specials on their menu. But their combination bento box was such a good deal (2 items plus rice, miso soup, and salad) we would probably just order even more haha! They're also super nice. Call in and order ahead to pick up (plus call in to check their hours because they might be open even if yelp says otherwise)! read more

Matsuyama Restaurant - Special menu items as of Sept 13th 2020. - Japanese Near Me - Discovery Bay, California

Thanks goodness for Matsuyama in Discovery Bay! Was here for the weekend and noticed it was predominantly chains. Ordered via phone for dinner. Got a couple rolls and handrolls and they were tasty! I especially liked the Lakewood Roll with grilled snapper. Felt that was pretty unique. I tend to look at pics to order and was drooling over the Sunkist roll that was 2 pieces of masago wrapped with salmon and a quail egg but apparently that was an old pic with a former sushi chef. They did a makeshift order of masago nigiri with qual egg. Still good! Definitely recommend. up! Pickup only right now. read more

Very clean environment...Friendly service, good tasty food! Fresh food on that! Will continue to eat here!

Sushi rolls were soggy. Not worth the money or the wait. Gyoza was decent. Won't be back. read more

Great sushi we're regulars there everyone is very professional and extremely friendly.

We love this little hole in the wall. Not fancy but consistent food and always friendly.

My son ordered sushi through door dash and while he said it tasted okay he later got sick from it.

RUDE CUSTOMER SERVICE!!! The lady that answered the phone to take my to-go order yelled at me after asking her for a total on the items I ordered. I told her to forget my order. I WONT BE BACK. read more

Stopped by this restaurant on our way home to treat my family for dinner... ****************************** Very rude, poor customer service, not welcoming at all!!

I've ordered from here before and I liked the sushi, it was pretty good. Then I went in person and I felt a little grossed out at their NATURAL early halloween decor They had spider webs all over the bottom of the walls, spider eggs and spiders hanging from the pictures. I was very uncomfortable, but felt bad leaving after sitting down and ordering already so we stayed. I was worried that if this is how dirty it is by the tables, how dirty must the kitchen be? We were all worried we would get food poisoning or something else,but we thankfully didn't! The staff is friendly & when the server was too busy, I got up and asked them to refill our waters and the cook was nice enough to bring our waters back. So 2 stars for them. The owner needs to hire someone that keeps the place clean and who also refills waters. Please don't blame the server if you go there. She was so nice and ran around serving everyone. They are just low staff. I will take this review down once the owner hires someone who helps the server clean and I see it in person. read more
