barnacle on baked muscle
Sabreena P.

so i've been here before and had a bad experience but this time ive had it. i called in a to go order and the lady was SO NICE. i go into the the restaurant a little early because i wanted to add on an item. i ordered a 5pc sushi combo w the california roll. i asked the guy if i can add on. he said hold on let me check. disappears for almost 7 minutes. he comes back and says no there's no time to add on. we are still working on your sushi order though.... he never asked what i wanted to add which was a hand roll. i don't understand why i couldn't get an additional item when i had to wait another 10 minutes. (btw i wasnt trying to get it for free i wanted to pay). i get my order home and i have the wrong combo order. additionally my baked muscles were dirty there's a literal barnacle and hair on it still. so disappointed i will NEVER return even if they paid me.

The food was good, though the service could use a slight improvement. The ambiance combined Japanese and Korean influences, and the K-Pop music was really enjoyable.

Terrible service is an understatement. Kids that don't have a fucking clue working in there on their cell phones. Fucking up the order and then arguing with me! I grew up in LA eating sushi for over 35 years. How these places are in business is beyond me. I should have know right away that it was a mistake when I saw that the "sushi bar" was being used as a shelf for sake. So no sushi bar at this sushi bar.

Popcorn roll, tiger roll, aloha roll and one other.  We also had the spicy edamame.

Sake Sushi is a bit short handed with 3 servers considering the number of tables, so service was average. It could use a little updating or a makeover and get rid of all the paper signs trying to promote different menu items. Sushi was good although some of the rolls were a bit big to pick up. I would try it again in the future.

Bibimbap

Approved by Koreans. The best bibimbap. The service was great, and the atmosphere is fun.

Sake sushi ended up being our lunch gathering spot today since it was open on Sunday. When you walk in you can definitely feel the Japanese vibes. They have Japanese music videos playing and lighted cherry blossom trees hang from the ceiling. The waitress was very nice and attentive. For an appetizer we started off with the garlic edamame. It was okay. There was A LOT of oil and butter at the bottom of the bowl, so it was a little overwhelming. You absolutely cannot go wrong with their beef teriyaki. It is personally one of my favorite dishes here and it very aesthetically pleasing, along with the I love DH roll. The menu is huge, so you should definitely be able to find something you like. All in all, it is not the best spot for edamame, but it's a great spot for everything else. Come check it out.

Something wrong roll: Tempura shrimp, fried softshell crab, crab, salmon tuna masago

I came here for sushi not really expecting anything but the rolls were surprisingly amazing! We just got back from the beach near jalama and someone recommend this place. The portion was big for how much you get for rolls and sushi fish was fresh. By far the best soft shell crab roll I have tried and each bite, you can taste how well balanced the flavor it was and the different fish combination. Tempura and soft shell crab was crispy! I highly recommend this place if you're looking for rolls. I haven't tried the ramen or soup bowl but I saw people buying it and it looked good too.

I'm not sure how long this little hidden gem has been open but I'm upset that I have not tried this…read moresooner. Hands down best gyoza I have ever had. It is just how I like it. The chicken bento box is also unlike any other fried chicken I've ever had. You can tell it is homemade and the spices set it apart from any other fried chicken around town. This also happens to be where I discovered my favorite boba tea. This has instantly become my favorite gyoza/boba restaurant. The portions are very generous and you will not be disappointed with the quality of food here.

I have no idea how this place has more than 2 stars. I have…read moretwo littles and decided to stop by on our way home rather than go to the other side of town to our usual spot. At first impression I should have known- it was lunch time and empty- you have to self order and navigate their kiosk- no help with two kids and still ask for a tip. There was one younger girl with dark hair in the cluttered kitchen/drink area who didn't even acknowledge us- just went to the back and started rummaging. A second lady showed up and started preparing our sushi order. At that point I noticed the dirty tables and lack of service so decided to change my order "to go." I stood there trying to get their attention and was finally acknowledged. The lady who seemed to be in charge was handing out cash to another younger lady who came in (weird asf too). I finally get my order and bring it home. The nigiri was poorly cut- but edible. My poke bowl had a small amount of tuna that tasted sour and has signs of cooking through citrus, imitation crab, and seaweed salad (extra cost), then I see a whole romaine end, browning and cut up under that making the bulk of the bowl, followed by rice. Nothing like the picture at the kiosk. Then as I try to mix things up for a bite (I am starving at this point) I see a dark black hair. Needless to say I was extremely disappointed and unable to eat my food. I called to let them know and the younger lady who was there said she would let the owner know after sitting down and looking at all the food that was wasted. I decided to call back and ask for a refund. At that point, the younger lady kept repeating what I was saying, as she was relaying the information to what sounded like to be the owner. She told her to tell me that I needed to go back with the food. I let her know that I was unable to do that right now as I had two little kids who needed to nap- that's why I came home. She said she couldn't do a refund- until I went there with the food and my card. I was also told to refrigerate this food- are they going to use it?!? Smh. Ultimately I am out $40, and no lunch. I will never return or recommend to anyone. I'm thinking the reviews are for the teas- which I didn't try.

The Asahi arrived in a frozen mug, which made it even more refreshing. We also ordered the Shell Beach Sunset roll, which had an amazing balance of raw and cooked fish, vegetables, and the added crunch of tempura flakes. All the flavors and textures worked perfectly together. The nine-piece sashimi was beautifully presented and incredibly fresh. For dessert, we had the tempura ice cream and the green tea cheesecake--both were absolutely delicious. Honestly, everything we ordered was fantastic. Our servers, Jasmine and Austin, truly killed it. They were friendly, attentive, and genuinely engaged throughout the meal. The restaurant itself had great lighting and décor, was spotless and well-maintained, even down to the restrooms. Parking was plentiful and free. Overall, we had a wonderful time with family and friends. An amazing experience and definitely worth coming back to.

I had to stop eating to make sure I could enjoy them together - even though they were both ordered together and the only thing I got. I honestly wanted to eat more but the server was pretty rude to me in particular despite trying to be as nice as possible to him. After my second order I left especially because while delicious it still felt overpriced especially for a very causal environment with a TV playing sports. I would get takeout next time and eat at a nearby vista point.

The food is consistently fresh, comforting, and thoughtfully prepared, and the staff makes you feel welcome from the moment you arrive. The sushi is the standout, clean flavors, generous portions, and rolls that actually taste balanced rather than overloaded. The fish always seems fresh, and their specialty rolls strike a perfect mix of creativity and familiarity. If you're not in a sushi mood, the teriyaki plates, tempura, and noodle dishes are just as good, great textures, great seasoning, and never greasy or heavy. Service is friendly and quick, even during busy hours, and the team genuinely seems to care about giving guests a good experience. The atmosphere is relaxed, family-friendly, and pleasantly low-key--ideal for an easy dinner out or a casual date night. Overall, Chiban is a reliable, delicious, and warmly run spot that Santa Maria is lucky to have. If you're craving Japanese food, this is the place to go.
