I've been coming to Tomodachi Sushi for a few years now and it's hands down my favorite sushi spot…read more The service is excellent! Very friendly, very attentive and very welcoming. I've truly never had a bad roll or a negative experience here. My go-to favorites are the Simi Roll (with goma sauce on the side), the Piano Roll, the Dynamite Roll, and the Spicy Shrimp Hand Rolls. If you're dining in, the complimentary miso soup is such a nice bonus and always hits the spot. Highly recommend if you're looking for some fresh sushi and excellent service!

You can tell they take pride in what they're serving. We tried a couple rolls and they were balanced--not just drenched in sauce to cover up mediocre ingredients. Portions felt fair for the price, and the menu has enough variety that you can keep coming back without getting bored. It's also a cozy, intimate little spot--perfect for a low-key sushi night. Service was friendly and attentive without hovering, and the timing between dishes was solid.

This reservation took a full year to secure and I would gladly wait another year to experience it again. The hardest reservation in Ventura County? Without a doubt. Worth it? YES doesn't even begin to cover it. Dining at Sushi Tanaka is an experience in itself, especially in the presence of a legend like Chef Sei Tanaka. He is warm yet serious, focused yet playful and his dishes speak volumes. Every bite is layered with personality and skill. On the night we came in, my dearest friend Leslie and I had the entire restaurant to ourselves. I can't explain how we had an entire seating to just us but it was magical and intimate. We dinned on 18 courses, each one a surprise more delicious than the last. You just sit back and the chef chooses each bite for you. We've never had octopus so impossibly tender it melted in our mouths. Ice cold sake, warm fish soup, literally I could go on and on about this meal. Choosing favorites feels almost wrong because every course was exceptional, but if forced, the Santa Barbara uni on wagyu, Japanese scallop, Sea bream, and Toro with uni were some of the most impressive and unforgettable bites I've ever had. Never did I imagine that the best sushi I've ever experienced in Ventura County would be found in Simi Valley, but here we are. What an absolute treasure this city holds. I truly hope everyone gets the opportunity to support and experience this extraordinary omakase at least once in their life.

We came for a late dinner and wanted some sushi, so we tried this sushi spot out that's been here…read morefor quite some time. The restaurant has a lot of seating and a large menu. We tried the Red Dragon roll, California hand roll with soy paper, Albacore delight sushi and a Bento box with Teriyaki chicken sashimi. The items we tried were all good, however, service was a bit slow. Staff were all nice, but seemed to be very busy since this sushi spot had AYCE sushi also. Overall, if you are not in a rush and want some good sushi, come check this spot out.

The little bowl of ginger they serve had a long hair in it. They replaced it quickly but it was gross. Then we ordered our sushi and my husband prefers cooked while I prefer raw. The cooked sushi all came out meanwhile I waited for my poke sushi. Finally I asked and the woman said she forgot. So by the time my sushi came my husband was done. It was annoying bc if he waited his would've gotten cold and then he waited around for me after. It wasn't very busy at all it was 2pm on a week day so I wonder how they do on busy days. The sushi itself was so tasty. The blue crab with crispy rice was delicious. The poke sushi was wonderful. And the fantasy roll was also great. We had another roll but I forgot the name. Definitely will be back for the sushi alone:

Every time we walk through the door, we are greeted with the kind of warmth that makes us feel like family. The fish is consistently fresh, but our absolute favorites are the no-rice rolls--specifically the Orange Roll (salmon on salmon) and the Oh Honey (tuna with imitation crab). The sauces have a perfect, flavorful kick! We also love the Rainbow Roll, and you can't go wrong with their miso soup or the bento lunch specials, which are a fantastic deal. What really sets Hana apart is the service. We recently celebrated our daughter's birthday here, and the owners treated her to a lovely mochi ice cream. The couple who runs the shop are incredibly kind and welcoming. We love supporting this business!
