Sorry but the portions on their sushi keep getting smaller and the price of their sushi keeps getting higher. Kaiser roll was $21, the Annie's roll was $15.50. The Fair Oaks roll was $13.50. Also got udon noodle soup for $21, crispy gyoza for $9.50, tempura appetizer for $13.95. Just a lot of $$ for a little. read more

We generally go to "I love sushi" for the expected flavors for a reasonable price, but the place was closed at the time we needed sushi, so we went with Mikuni knowing that the price will be a bit higher, portions smaller, but solid quality and taste. We got exactly that after ordering a few milder rolls (my people don't like spicy). It all was delicious. Miso soup was really small, though. Service was fairly quick for a pickup order. read more

Restaurant is very nice. Has a big space inside and also an outdoor area to sit at. Restrooms were very clean and modern. Service was good. Our service was friendly & patient while we looked over the menu. The menu is big. We got Gyoza & puff daddy to start they were very good and tasty. Also got Tony two roll it was very tasty and filling. Flavors were very well balanced and it was a good portion. read more

Mikuni's is one of my favorite sushi restaurants to go to locally. There is a large food selection so you are bound to find something you like. Mikuni's tends to get packed and they don't take reservations, so I would definitely recommend going on a weekday or showing up a little bit earlier before the dinner rush on weekends. There is plenty of seating inside, outside, and at the sushi bar. The only reason why I give four stars is because the service can be a little bit slow sometimes, which can be nice if you're okay with sitting and chatting for a bit. read more

Came in for my sister's birthday. I'd never eaten here before but I've always wanted to. The place was packed, but really clean- there bussers were REALLY on it! The second a party left they were right there. Our server was really patient with us, I unfortunately don't remember his name, but he was really nice (I came with a party of 5; 12/19 7-6:30pm). The food was AMAZING everything was really great. I did the $70 dinner for 2 and it was fantastic! The $70 dinner for two came with an appetizer, a plate, 2 sushi rolls, and a dessert. Our appetizer: Flaming Shrooms -Tempura mushrooms with crab mix, cream cheese, jalapenos, special sauce, shaved bonito flakes, green onion Plate: Musolino Pasta -Udon noodles sautéed in olive oil and garlic with prawns, asparagus, mushrooms, onion Sushi Rolls: Spicy Salmon -Spicy salmon, cucumber, chili powder, sesame oil, tempura flakes Rainbow Roll -Imitation crab, avocado, tuna, salmon, yellowtail, masago, green onion Dessert: Xango Cheesecake -Rich, smooth, creamy cheesecake with a tangy finish, rolled in a flaky pastry tortilla, topped with powdered sugar and drizzled with caramel and raspberry sauces Everything was great and well worth the price.

First time visiting Mikuni, and my son and I were thoroughly impressed! We ordered from the "$70 for 2" menu and a few other orders of Sushi rolls and EVERY SINGLE THING we got was incredibly delicious!!! Everything was prepared really well and presentation was beautiful. SUPER yummy! We had an awesome server named Chris who gave us some great menu suggestions when we asked, and he was so cheerful and attentive. Chris gave us great input about the town of Davis and UC Davis. What an incredibly nice, gracious and authentic person!! Service with a smile, great food, we will be back! (PS- Thank you also to Alex who was the most helpful and welcoming...) read more

Mikuni's is a great stop for sushi! When in Davis, the sushi craving always hits. We ordered the Japanese Mafia roll, Masa three roll and the Judie 2 roll and all of them were delicious and had great flavor combinations! Out of the 3 rolls, we liked the Japanese Mafia roll the best. We were seated quickly and had great service. Overall a great spot to stop for a sushi craving fix. read more

Mikuni - Wakame salad, yellow tail nigiri, spicy tuna hand roll, negihama hand roll, complimentary Edamame - Japanese Near Me - Davis, California

In my humble opinion. A MUST READ.... We were visiting Davis this past weekend. We happened to find this Restaurant. It looked beautiful for the outside and was packed in the inside. So we decided to give it a try. It was dinner time and we were hungry. We love Japanese Food and frequent so many amazing places in the Bay. This place looked like it was going to be amazing. We were settled within 5 minutes. The service was great, very friendly. We were giving the menu and the first thing we noticed. The menu was huge, bigger most of the Japanese restaurants we've been to anywhere. Wasn't sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing. But we picked several items that we love to eat. Now this is where the problems in my opinion started. 1. When our sushi arrived. Right off the bat. The rice used for the sushi, was off. Zero flavor, didn't stick together and the wrong type of rice for sushi. 2. The sushi were all different sizes and shapes. What irqn by that. The portions were off. It couldn't hold together and tasted like it was from a premade pack from a grocery store. 3. We ordered a large Sashimi platter. When it arrived. The portions were perfect for a baby. Who ever cut the piece must be blind. The cuts were all over the place. Different sizes, not fit for even a beginner sushi chef. 4. I ordered the Sesame Chicken. When it arrived I was puzzled. It was a thin piece of breat, lightly battered. With absolutely zero and I mean zero flavor. It was topped with some kind of basic teriyaki sauce or maybe unagi sauce. Sprinkled with sesame seeds. Nothing remotely close to Sesame Chicken. The chicken was dryer thn the Sahara. Never in my life have I had something like that. If Applebee's made a Sesame Chicken. I would assume, it would be exactly like that. All that and it cost us $180. Which is ridiculous. If I were you. Just pick up some sushi at 7/11. Not only would it be cheaper. But there is a high probability. It would taste better.... In my humble opinion. I gave this place 2 starts. 1 for the atmosphere and 1 for the service. That's all this place deserves. Again, in my humble opinion. read more

Came here for a friend's birthday and it was a lot of people here but they were all ready to rock and roll and just had an amazing service. Since then we have been back usually for happy house 2-5pm Monday to Friday dine in only. There's a decent selection on the happy hour menu. Our go toos are zigzag shrimp handroll, Spicy scallop handroll, karaage chicken nuggets, iron chef roll, yuzu Calamari, tuna sliders, Annie roll. They staff there is very friendly and very attentive to their customers. I love their Japanese old fashion and the lycee shockers is another great drink. A great place to just grab lunch or have dinner with family or friends. There is indoor and outdoor dining. read more

Decent sushi spot with a lot of seating. We got the salmon teriyaki bento with veggie tempura. The salmon portion was smaller than expected, but it was ok. Good not great.

Overall, I would say this place isn't the most impressive sushi spot, but it is very clean and good for big groups. The service was great! read more

My husband and I were in town for a photoshoot and searched for a sushi place nearby, I am so glad this place is what was recommended. We were greeted right when we walked in and were seated immediately. Our server was Madison, and she was so wonderful. We ordered the Edamame with the Freaky seasoning, wow! I am not sure how so much seasoning works, but it totally does! The Flaming Shrooms were sooooo delicious! I would have been down to eat three orders of just those. The Sake-Q was such a fresh tasting roll. I am a big fan of cucumber wrapped rolls, this one did not disappoint. The 3pcs Kaizen Oysters with Ponzu were really tasty. I did not taste any sand or shell when eating the oysters which I appreciated. The Yuzu Calamari was some of the best breaded calamari I have ever had. The breading was so lite and didn't overpower the taste of the calamari at all. The bathrooms were clean and nice. The restuarant felt lively. The parking lot in the back had lots of spaces to park in for free. read more

Surprisingly Davis has a handful of sushi restaurants in the city, but we decided to go to the fanciest one. I came here on a random weekend and it was still packed. The sushi here is pretty pricey, but the $65 for two was worth it. This deal comes with one appetizer, one entree, two sushi rolls, and one dessert. Also if you sit at the sushi bar, you'll receive a free edamame Flaming shrooms (4/5): This is a tempura mushroom stuffed with crab, cream cheese, jalapeños, and other garments. It was a really great appetizer to share since there was so much flavor and the mushrooms was pretty big. Musolino Pasta (5/5): This was the most worth and tastiest dish in this deal. It's the most expensive item available that will make you leave full, so I recommend you taking it if you do the deal. It's a stir fry udon sautéed in olive oil and garlic. It also includes large and generous amounts of prawns, mushrooms, and onions. Marilyn Monroll (4/5): The scallop on this roll was very fresh for Davis, but the roll was very small. It was a bit underwhelming for me. Fresh roll (4/5): The salmon was fresh, but the size of the roll was underwhelming for me. Xango Cheesecake (5/5): This mango cheesecake was excellent and unique to try. Great way to end the meal! This place is a bit pricey, but I really like the deal. I would recommend this place if you want fine dining and willing to pay a bit extra for sushi. read more

Not sure why I keep coming back to this location. It doesn't do the brand justice - food is Mikuni quality but service is sub-par. There is always a wait for a table and acoustics are terrible. The noise level is not conducive to conversation when you have to shout across the table to be heard by your dining companions. The environment is frenetic and rushed without delivering on service. The parking is in the back of the complex and a bit far for disabled persons to get to the front door of the restaurant. The bartender was very efficient in serving up drinks, water and an appetizer of tempura shrimp while we waited for our table. They won't transfer your bar tab to your table so you have to pay before being seated at your table. Never been to a restaurant with a bar that does that. When we got to our table, the food we ordered came out quickly from the kitchen but we didn't have any plates, ginger nor wasabi for our sushi. We had to wait quite a while to flag down the hostess who kindly brought us plates to eat the food they had served to our table. The dinner for two at $70 is still a deal although the sushi rolls they serve are smaller than the standard size when ordering off the menu. It comes with one appetizer, one entree and two rolls as well as choice of dessert to share. We would have gone elsewhere in town except the smaller locations downtown for sushi were already booked at the time we wanted to eat. I'd rather wait or drive to Sacramento next time I'm in the mood for sushi. Mikuni should do better, especially in such a well-established location. read more

Came here on lunch when we were attending a conference at the SAFE Credit Union convention center. We came with 15, and did not have a reservation. It was 11:30, and not too many people were there yet but they did start to come in as we waited for our table. It took them about twenty minutes to seat us which was okay because we had an hour and a half for lunch. Everyone ordered different things and everyone said all the food was fantastic! I had a house salad, miso soup, and the Kaiser roll. The salad and soul were great, but I will say the miso soup was lukewarm so that's something to be improved upon because we all felt that way about it. The Kaiser roll was absolutely delicious. It was really large which I wasn't expecting, but the flavors were very pleasing. Our waitress was super nice and did a great job remembering everyone's food abs checking in with those whose orders took a little longer. All in all, a great visit. Will be back! read more

UPDATED REVIEW: The food at mikuni's is really good, but the service is honestly horrendous. My friend and I arrived at 1:20pm and did not leave until 3:10pm. At 1:20pm we get there and the waitress gives us our water and says she will be right back with our straws and a drink my friend ordered. 30 minutes later and she was NOT right back. I had to let the host know we had been waiting before our waitress came back. After she took our order, the food still did not come out until 2:30pm. There were two women behind us whose food was taking a long time as well and their server offered them free miso or edamame while they waited. He also explained to them how the kitchen was backed up and some staff members took their break. We were offered no explanation and had to eat sad pieces of ginger and soy sauce while we waited for the food to arrive. ALSO at 2:50pm we finished our food and asked for the check and one more drink and after waiting ANOTHER 20 minutes I finally had to get up and ask for our check again at 3:10pm and it wasn't even our waitress who brought the check. My friend and I were honestly so mad during the whole experience because we spent maybe 20 minutes eating and the rest waiting. Great food. TERRIBLE service. Be prepared for this I suppose. I can't believe that I had to get up TWICE to ask for service. That's insane. read more

Mikuni never disappoints, and the Carmichael Roll is a solid choice if you're looking for something flavorful and satisfying. It's got tempura shrimp and crab mix inside, topped with seared tuna, avocado, and just the right amount of sauce. The tempura adds a nice crunch, while the avocado and tuna keep it rich and buttery. The flavors balance really well--nothing overpowers anything else, and the sauces bring a little sweetness and spice without being too much. Plus, the portion size is pretty generous. If you're into sushi with a mix of crispy and creamy textures, this roll is definitely worth trying. read more

There was a 20ish minute wait which was not bad for a Thursday night dinner. Definitely appreciated the misters outside to help keep us cool. Most of the food minus the smoked salmon sashimi were all quite tasty. Definitely skip on the smoked salmon sashimi. The soft shell crab handroll was just okay...the avocado is overpowering and all I tasted was avocado and crunchy bits but the portion was very generous. I definitely recommend the marilyn monroll! You know a roll is going to be good if its on the restaurant's Tshirts! The meal for two can be ordered by anyone and is a pretty good deal. The service was a major disappointment though. We were served food (which my table was all sharing) but no plates. It took a while before I could flag our server down to get plates as well. All of the tables around us seemed to spend quite a bit of time waiting for our server. To get a water refill, I ended up flagging a busboy who said he would get our server and took it upon himself a few minutes later to refill our water since our server had not. read more

Wow- this is one of those places where everything is good despite such a big menu. Started with a few things that caught my eye. Tuna sliders with a fried scallop on top (5/5), 4 pieces of Toro Tuna belly, and some edamame. The three of us got 3 rolls after that and green tea. Our server was attentive -and for how busy it was I ordered some bites a little worried how long to get our food- and those plates came in good time while we read the lengthy menu and hard to choose rolls. It is so busy that there is not someone consciously walking around refilling waters , which is a big deal for my husband's experience. I was able flag someone down. We were warned of waiting up to an hour after arriving to get a table on a Friday, but it really only took just over 20 minutes. We scored one of the many cozy booths which I think added to the comfort of being there and eating such delicious food. The room was crowded and a bit loud but tidy and medium loud. I think being at the window in a booth tamped the sound down a bit. Our main rolls arrived after everyone was super happy with our starters. After that another surprise starter arrived- Flaming Shrooms- this looked like Agedashi tofu but was a creamy bite of cap mushroom of some type and crab mix and panko crusted and fried into a ball almost like an Arancini Ball- so surprisingly delicious My Daughter wanted her own Fair Oaks Roll which is a classic combination. I was looking for something different- and lighter, I went with the Fiesta Roll which was perfect for all that I already had. But one more roll was coming for my husband and it was the DMC roll with lobster ! When you see this roll- it is impossible to not try one bite. Or two! What an amazing ending to a great meal. read more

Came during happy hour. Waiter was very attentive and often checked on my table. I'd say it was decent prices for happy hour. They have a lot of options but I don't think they were all necessarily sushi. Ordered the freaky edamame which is just their version of spicy garlic edamame. The Fresh roll and Judie roll were rather small and simple plated. Still good though. Was going to order a dragon roll or baked California roll to go but was told they don't have those. What sushi place doesn't have those very basic rolls? Decent sushi, a variety of items on the menu, but I think there are better sushi places in town. read more

Such a good sushi place with soooo many options! The host was super accommodating and friendly (we had a baby with us) and they made sure he was treated well, too :) I can see why this place has a waitlist on a random weekday...

Once we got seated, I went straight into getting the Japanese Mafia Roll, which was tewwww good! I just moved to the area, so finding a staple sushi spot has been a priority on my list and this place might just be it! I loved that the sauce wasn't heavy and just right.
