Menufy error
Carl A.

I hate trying to order from this place. When I call they never answer. They have an online ordering system but every time I try to order from the Menufy app I get an error message that my name is not applied. I get the same error on the website too.

Poke Bowl
Katherine G.

I always enjoy eating here!! Best Poke Bowl you'll find around, and I love the sushiii. This is a great place, food is always yummy and ambient is quiet and nice.

Chicken Wings
Midori M.

Delicious dinner. The O Bowl with sesame chicken. Probably my favorite dish from here. Everything was cooked perfectly. Also pictured is the Chicken Teriyaki Bento Box. my guest said everything was good! Service was good. This is definitely a place to try!!

On July 25th instead of driving to Visalia we decided to come to Reedley to celebrate a family birthday. We have always loved Sansei but this visit was underwhelming. Since they do not have table side service anymore and have to order everything at the cash register the service wasn't as attentive as I remember it being. We order 2 Tarantula rolls, 1 Red Dragon, 1 Sansei Blossom, 2 orders of baked mussels, salmon belly nigiri and an order of Inari. The tarantula rolls tasted mainly of cream cheese and rice, you couldn't taste the soft shell crab. The baked mussels were over cooked which made them extremely chewy. It was also very frustrating that if you wanted another drink or an additional dish you had to get up from the table, wait in line, order and pay at the register. I'm sad to say this was not what I was expecting from a hometown restaurant that has always been good. We should've drove to Visalia

They changed up the seating and you also order up front before getting Seated. Try not to sit in the front because of traffic coming in and out and people just watching you eat. Great food. The green tea is trash though.

Sansei Roll
Tucker M.

I recommend the island roll. It comes deep fried, but you can ask for it fresh. The Sansei Roll is very delicious and flavorful

SESAME CHICKEN BOWL
Jacob V.

Pleasantly surprised to find decent sushi in Reedley! We had the dragonfly and yum yum rolls, the yum yum being the better one surprisingly because it was the cheaper one. It was light sweet and stuffed with crab, shrimp tempura and cream cheese while the dragonfly was a bit more filling and had tuna. My favorite was the sesame chicken (like Katsu chicken) and had a thick tonkatsu sauce that's like a thick gravy-teriyaki sauce with white rice--it was a simple meal choice but super good. I hadn't been here it quite some time but it appears they've changed some thing up like offering online ordering, remodeling and new menu items. This place is pretty popular in Reedley so I'd recommend ordering online ASAP if you're ordering on a Friday night. Would recommend the sesame chicken or the "O" Bowl (which is Panko chicken in a light teriyaki sauce with mixed vegetables and white rice)

SANSAI RESTAURANT HAS THE ABSOLUTE BEST "MUSSEL'S WITH CRAB", in the San Joaquin Valley.

Sansei has been Closed for several weeks now and I miss their sushi! My problem is that they didn't have any phone messages explaining why they're not open.

Sesame chicken bowl

When your man friend has the day off from work and drives to the town you're in to give you a much needed lunch break from school and says "my treat", you know it's gonna be a lovely day. What's better than a lovely day you may ask? A great meal makes a lovely day a fantastic day. This may seem a little irrelevant, but it's the way I was feeling and I must brag a little of the sacrifices my vato makes for me at times. Any who, I had driven by this place many times this year and many moons ago because I used to work in Reedley and never thought to give this place a try. Ron sauce was the one that suggested it and I was completely fine with his choosing. When I walked in, I was completely taken away by how nice it is. It looks very roomy, modern with a Japanese twist. By the looks of it, it has been recently remodeled because a lot of the booths were newer looking. The food was great as well. The lunch menu had a variety of selections and the prices were just right. I had the sesame chicken bowl which had a really generous amount of chicken. It was a tad over salted but not enough to fuss about. I tasted Ron's Almond shrimp and they were like nothing I have ever had. They were good, really good. I didn't get to try the sushi because it was protected like it had an electric fence around it. I'm sure he offered but I was too into my chicken bowl to even notice. Service was excellent. Our server was friendly and offered some suggestions including their homemade spicy sauce which was delicious. I will be returning soon to try out a few other menu items that caught my attention and also to take more pictures. Definitely a must try, if you're in the area of course.

Piping hot bowl of miso soup!
Stephanie B.

This is a definite go-to spot of mine in Reedley whenever I'm in town. The quality of the food is phenomenal and the sushi is some of the best in the area. I've never experienced a meal here that I wasn't pleased with, and I'm always excited to try new things on their menu because I know they'll be delicious. Please do try the sushi - I can vouch for everything, especially the Dragon Roll, Dragonfly Roll, and Tigger Roll. Other entrees, such as the O-bowl, and teriyaki chicken bowl are also fantastic. The restaurant is very clean and the tables are bussed immediately after customers leave. The renovated dining area is very spacious and open, and good for groups and conversation without feeling stuffy. There can be a bit of a wait during dinner time, but in my experience, if you show up around 5 with a margin of about 10 minutes, you have a good chance of finding a table and beating the majority of the dinner rush. I've been coming here for years with my family and friends and the food, service, and ambiance is constantly great. This is the kind of place I would take a friend or family member visiting Reedley out to dinner. I'm glad to have enjoyed a lovely meal at Sansei with my family last night - I'm already looking forward to my next visit!
