While physically located inside the Davis Food Co-op, and the transaction takes place at the Co-op's registers (very convenient) Mermaid Sushi is an independent business, offering ready-to-go sushi. It is a limited menu, focusing on nigiri sushi and California-style rolls. My favorite is the Nigiri Combo (Hawaii tuna and wild salmon). It is always fresh and sustainably caught. The price is quite reasonable. If they are ever out of your favorite, they are usually able and happy to remake it quickly. read more

Mermaid Sushi - Awesome sushi platter picked up for this Sunday. Order 24 hrs in advance. Tastes so fresh - Sushi Bars Near Me - Davis, California

It's edible, but the quality has definitely dropped. I couldn't tell if it was the lighting or something else but the color of the raw fish looked very artificial while I was in store. I purchased it anyway thinking it was me, but it definitely was off. The orange of the salmon was very red orange and there weren't any of the classic white fatty steaks in it. Definitely looked dyed. The rice was also very packed and didn't feel fresh (purchased at 11am). Not going to be back for this. Really a shame. read more

Mermaid Sushi - Nigiri combo 13.99 - Sushi Bars Near Me - Davis, California

I sadly just bought Mermaid Sushi for the last time. I used to love this business but after the new ownership, quality has declined dramatically. Lack of freshness and high quality ingredients is what is most noticeable. Such a bummer. read more

Mermaid Sushi is inside of the Davis Coop. I used to look forward to coming here for a quick grocery-store, sushi lunch. There is not much variety, but it is usually pretty fresh. Unfortunately, they don't make my favorite roll anymore. They used to have mini rolls, where half of the rolls had just avocado and half had just either tuna or salmon. When it wasn't pre-made, I would ask the sushi people if they could make them for me. They always said yes, but sometimes there was a wait. I also liked that the mini rolls were $2 cheaper and you get more rolls, even though they are mini. Now, someone new works there and when I asked if he could make the mini rolls, he didn't know what I meant. When I explained, he still was confused. This week when I went, I got the basic salmon and tuna roll. The rolls were heavy with rice. Received a spicy mayo drizzle upon request. Not as good as it used to be in my opinion! Not planning on going back anytime soon. read more

mermaid roll. so good. so fresh. consistent courteous service. Davis food coop location very convenien.

Located inside of co-op, sushi were good and very good for its price! Nothing super especial about this just a good to go sushi place

This place is inside co-op supermarket but the fish is super fresh and made to order if there are no call-in catering orders. It's a casual check out/take out and they do have some seating outside but self serve for sure. With reasonable prices and high quality ingredients they have sign that says special orders can take up to 3 hrs. Great food at great price definitely worth a visit. read more

Sustainable and freshly made to order sushi? Yes please! I got the spicy tuna and salmon roll for $8.99. The sushi was so good, I didn't even need any additional soy sauce to eat it with. The fish was light and buttery, and the rice was soft and chewy. Best sushi I've had in a long time, for such a great price! (+) speedy, great customer service, gave me two extra pieces read more

Mermaid Sushi - Spicy tuna and salmon roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Davis, California

Overall, I haven't had much success when buying grocery store sushi. Thought I'd give it another try and Mermaid Sushi had excellent reviews. I didn't realize it was located in the Co-Op, I must have walked right by it a dozen times. When I went to check it out, they were really picked over and just had one type of roll left. I think it was a spicy California Roll so I bought a couple. The gentleman preparing rolls on site actually came over and thanked me personally for buying their product! How often does that happen? Anyway, best store-bought sushi I've purchased and the friendly customer service was very surprising and welcome. I'll be back. read more

A whole vegetarian platter for $20?! Best deal I've ever seen. You can tell this sushi is made with love, too- super fresh and yummy. When you want to order, call the Co-op and press 0 and ask for Mermaid Sushi. they're also very environmentally conscious which I appreciate :) read more

Mermaid Sushi - vegetarian platter - Sushi Bars Near Me - Davis, California

This isn't so much a restaurant as a "grab and go" inside of the Co-op market in Davis. I had a hard time finding it for that reason. California roll was ok. Like something you would get an another grocery stores take out sushi section! read more

Mermaid sushi is our to-go-place for "sushi Fridays" -- my wife and I are regulars now and we try to enjoy different rolls each time. We always come back to the veggie rolls! Sithu and Zin are very friendly and welcoming and they seem to put their heart in each of their platters. We are sushi lovers and we do enjoy Mermaid sushi's offerings through and through. You won't regret it. Kindness + fresh, sustainable fish make a great combo! read more

Meh Supermarket sushi sitting on the shelf. Ok sustainable fish, but it taste pretty meh. read more

This place exceeded our expectations and the couple that runs this is also amazing. The customization and their ability to make it look beautiful make it an everyday option as well as a special occasion option. We were thrilled and look forward in ordering and trying new things with them. read more

For take out sushi in Davis (or catering) it does not get any better. While I prefer sushi dining out at a restaurant, when I need grab and go or catering these guys do an amazing job! Quality and quantity are significantly better then the local competitors. Nice well made rolls, generous fish to rice proportions. A bit more $, but also larger portions so a value! read more

i love coming here!! its a little pricy for davis sushi but i appreciate how everything is very simple but fresh. nothing is drowning in sauce but you feel really good and clean after you eat it! love love will miss u in davis read more

Mermaid Sushi - salmon nigiri + rolls - Sushi Bars Near Me - Davis, California

We always enjoy our sushi and the whole experience (from ordering to pick up). I know it's takeout, but the interactions with the owners always feel like they really care about the food and the people. We don't eat out often, but this is the place we eat from the most since we've moved to Davis a year ago. read more

Mermaid Sushi - a platter of sushi with avocado, cucumber, and sauce - Sushi Bars Near Me - Davis, California

Sushi is made at the deli counter inside the Davis the CO-OP. Once items are made they are placed below in open refrigeration shelfs similar to other supermarket. The sushi options are typical for supermarkets and the price is relatively reasonable for what you are selecting. It's definitely a quick option for lunch or dinner. I typically select rolls that consist of avocado, brown or white rice, and salmon or tuna. *Price is slightly cheaper than Nugget Markets. **Don't believe the rice is properly washed or stored. read more

I absolute LOVE their sushi, and knowing that it is made using sustainable ingredients, makes it that much better. I also like the convenience of being within the Food Co-Op because I get my sushi while shopping for groceries, and sit down in their patio to enjoy free Wi-Fi and my sushi afterwards :) I have no favorites, they are all really good. If you see rolls with salmon, try them! Their salmon has a peculiar taste (in a good way!). Lately I've been getting their dry soba noodle 'Vegan Yakisoba' bowl and I love it. Hint: sometimes in the later hours of the night (around 9:30pm), sushi is announced over the speakers to be $2 off! read more

Preordered two sushi platters for a bridal shower. Went to pick up at the promised date and time and they totally forgot to make them. Left extremely disappointed and empty handed. If you preorder, I recommend you confirm the day before and the day of to make sure they clearly understand the agreement or go elsewhere. Owners - please address this with your staff. read more

Amazing people. Amazing sushi I love how fresh and tasty their vegan sushi is. And it's super affordable I'm going to miss them as it's my last quarter at Davis. read more

Mermaid sushi (located in the Davis co-op) is amazing! To pre-order platters, call the co-op main phone number (530-758-2667) and ask for the sushi department the day before pickup. I ordered the veggie platter and it was $20 for an amazing amount of very delish sushi. Everyone who I interacted with was very courteous and helpful. Menu and pricing is accurate as of 7/1/20 read more

Fresh sushi made with real crabs, fresh salmon and tuna, I had to buy 3 tray and it's worth it :) While you're there grab some healthy fruits and veggies too, really love this place! read more

As Mexican would not consider Taco Bell to be Mexican food, Japanese would not consider Mermaid Sushi to be Japanese Sushi. Unfortunately, none of sushi places in Davis are authentic. Sushi rolls are Americanized everywhere but we've never seen this bad Nigiri anywhere. "Neta" (sliced fish) are not fresh and "Shari" (su-meshi or seasoned rice) is not seasoned properly. What is worse is how it is made; it is like a slice of fish on "rice ball". The rice should not be squeezed too tightly - it should contain appropriate amount of air pockets between rice grains. Sushi robots (e.g., Autec Nigiri Maker) would do much better job! read more

My friends and I love visiting the Co-op to purchase not only groceries but amazing and affordable sushi. As college students, we're always looking for good places to eat that are reasonable and Mermaid Sushi is the place to go! Whenever we come on Saturday after the Farmer's Market, the owners are always friendly and even memorized my order. The sushi is fresh and delicious, I love how it's sustainable and how you get so many rolls for $7-$9. I would highly recommend this place, not only for the sushi but also for the little community that the owners have created in the Co-op. read more

There is no good sushi in Davis besides Mermaid Sushi. Its not what you would find at normal sushi restaurants. Whenever i'm in the Co-op I usually always get one of Mermaid Sushi's "Brown rice with wild Salmon and Avocado", Its my favorite. It tastes extremely fresh and the salmon just melts in your mouth. Its always very consistent. The nigiri sushi box is very good too. I only get sushi from mermaid sushi because all other sushi places in Davis are sub-par.... read more

Most of it was good but im giving 2 stars because a lot of the avocado pieces were super brown and the california rolls just have pieces of imitation rather than the normal shredded imitation crab salad style. Made them taste way more plain this way and it wasnt very good. read more
