So for a Japanese/ Korean restaurant I thought this was very good. Not sure what to expect when I read the reviews. I had been here years and years ago. One of my favorites in the S Peninsula in Mt View had closed, so a friend and his GF took me here. The overall experience was great. Friendly staff and servers and it was clean. The Bento Box that I had was most excellent with a twist of this Korean Beef Dish that I picked. I most certainly will come back. Thank you.

Stellar from top to bottom. Very good quality seafood. Spicy tuna roll was huge. Teriyaki Alambo was perfectly cooked. Edamame's we're done well. Service is superb here. Huge bento box for lunch for only $22 including soup and salad. The ambiance is so relaxing. Reminds me of being in Japan wherefbe food is not so salty.

Food was pretty yummy, however the portions are just really small for the price. Service was great!

As always do enjoy going to Mikado especially for the lunch bento box special. Today was no exception , as always can get a seat right away with friendly service ( note this is a smaller establishment and not adjustable tables so for large crowds it is limited ). Today was teriyaki chicken , avocado roll and gyoza , yes not so traditional but good quick lunch. Environment is nice , little bit older inside but well kept up and overall good selection of sushi , noodle etc. if in Los Altos give it a try and see what you think

Roten lettuce, the fried calamari looked like a big portion, but inside the batter is a dry small peace of calamari, not fresh at all.

Unfortunately the food is not fresh I got a roten lettuce. The fried calamari looked like a big portion, but inside the batter is a dry small flavorless peace of calamari, not fresh at all. I asked it to go but I didn't get the sauces, utensils, napkins. Very disappointed

My husband and I dined here for an early Friday dinner and we both agreed it's one of the best…read moreomakase spots in the peninsula. It's on the smaller side for a restaurant (maybe seats 30?), making it a super cute spot for date night. We opted for the 17 course omakase and it did not disappoint. The timing of each course was perfect. Even though the chef was also making nigiri for a table of 4, my husband and I never had to wait very long between each piece. One of our most memorable bites was the A5 wagyu. It's grilled on a Japanese charcoal which added a nice smokey flavor to the juicy pieces of wagyu. The kisu tempura was also very delicious and as always, the nigiri's were *chefs kiss*. Each piece of nigiri was perfectly seasoned and incredibly well balanced. If you haven't tried Hiroshi yet, you're definitely missing out. Highly recommend trying Hiroshi at least once if you like omakase. My husband and I are already looking forward to our next visit.

We were excited to try out Hiroshi for an omakase experience while we were in the area…read more It is a 17-course meal, offering a crab chawanmushi to start, various apps (such as tamago, taro, ama ebi, etc.), wagyu stake, tempura, nigiris (our favorites being the o-toro, the chu-toro, and the hotate), an akadashi miso soup, and a dessert (panna cotta). Note that their menu changes based on availability, so it won't be the same each time you go. Service was welcoming and pleasant, and each items were fresh and well-prepared. Their sushi counter, made out of the keyaki wood, is gorgeous! A good spot for a date night. +17-course omakase +pleasant service

Tried Yoshi Sushi for the first time and... yeah, we went a little crazy…read more We ordered the Love Tray, and it came out on a whole sushi boat loaded with soooo much food. It included 10 pieces of assorted nigiri, 15 pieces of sashimi, tekka maki, a California roll, shrimp tempura roll, plus 2 chef's special rolls. Everything tasted super fresh, like you can tell the quality is there. My absolute favorites were the salmon rolls (I could've eaten those all day). We definitely overestimated ourselves and couldn't finish, so... to-go box it is Overall, such a great experience. The service was amazing (they kept our tea and water full the entire time), and the ambiance inside was sooo cute and cozy.

I have been to Yoshi Sushi before and since I was in the area and had a hankering for sushi, I…read moredecided to go to this place again. I ordered the Shrimp Tempura Roll and Miso soup, both to go. The order was ready within 15 minutes and before I got there. I went there on a Sunday evening around 5pm and the place was not full. It is a bit confusign to find, it is on a small street behind Co-America Bank and situated in a strip mall, there is plenty of parking. They had a 2 for 1 specials and so I got 2 orders of the Shrimp Tempura Roll for the price fo one and I was shocked at how small the quantity was, you get 6 pieces with an order for $12.95, see attached photo. I was greeted when I walked in and was attended to immediately. The interior is welcoming and you walk into restaurant with the chefs preparing the sushi to the left and seating in front of them and several tables. There is no outside seating. Not only was the portion small but the shrimp part was tiny, it was mostly rice and not very tasty. The Miso Soup was hot and satisfying. It cost $2.99 You have to ask for utensils, they do not provide automatically and I appreciate that. I might give this another try if I am in the area but I would prefer to check out other sushi places and see how the quantity and prices compare.

So delicious I'm still thinking about this meal. The service was amazing. There's a huge menu with…read morelots of great options. This has been one of my favorite bites in South Bay. We ordered the sake oyako mesh with dashi to have the option for ochazuke, kurobuta katsu, tori karaage, and hojicha creme brulee. The rice clay pot dish had so much flavor and dimension. The katsu and karaage were both very crispy and fried to perfection. And the hojicha creme brûlée was the perfect sweetness. I would love to come back to try more of their dishes.

I came here with my brother and we ordered a variety of different items ranging from pizza to clay…read morepot rice, to carpaccio. The things we ordered included: Yuzu ceviche- This was delicious. The house made chips resembled ruffles and the ceviche was actually very refreshing. I couldn't stop taking bites out of it. Hints of citrus plus tomato, cucumbers, this was the perfect appetizer for clearing the palate before a meal. Ankimo - Monkfish liver, this dish was decent. The ponzu really shined and it wasn't fishy at all. Also oddly refreshing. The liver tasted like a paste almost. Sake carpaccio- Smooth, sweet, and light. The salon was nicely seared and tasted wonderful. Yakiniku Kochijan- The pizza crust was light and flaky and the cheese had an amazing cheese pull. The kimchi was subtle but it was definitely present in flavor. Jako Mentaiko Meshi- Dried fish and cod roe clay pot rice. The rice was super crispy and the dried fish had a ton of flavor. When mixed in thoroughly with the rice it just brings out the essence of the fish and the flavor. Overall, a solid spot!

The server was super patient and nice, and the food comes out very quickly. There's a large variety of items on the menu, from udons (brothy, creamy, cold) to bento boxes to rice bowls. Everything looked and sounded delicious, making it hard to pick! I ended up ordering the mentai cream sauce udon, and boy was I happy with my choice! The bowl comes with cod roe, parmesan cheese, tempura bits, and seaweed flakes. The cream sauce was super savory and umami, subtle seafood flavor without tasting fishy. If you can't picture it, it's alfredo-adjacent but seafood style and much better. The udon was chewy and al dente, perfectly coated by the sauce in each bite. Super comforting meal, and I will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu!

We were pleasantly surprised that the wait was not very long at all. Probably due to the weather. The normally packed parking lot across the street was almost empty. We waited about 15-20 minutes before being sat at my favorite table near the window. We always order the extra special nigiri and a few additional pieces à la cart. We were lucky enough to try the 4 piece Japan fish combo special this time as well. My youngest orders the galbi and a side of rice. The galbi was extremely thick! I was so surprised. She really enjoyed it. Every table was packed per usual, including the sushi bar. I especially appreciate this family friendly spot for it's consistent service and value. You can't beat the nigiri special price! Just be prepared to wait if you arrive during prime dining hours. Service has always been consistently good here which you wouldn't expect for such a busy restaurant. Nothing fancy or stuffy.
