5 stars for quality, quantity, love put into making the food! Disclaimer- not a place for fancy sit downs, this place is for people like myself- if the food is good, surroundings, ambience blah blah blah does not matter. I will choose this hands down compared with some omakase restaurants in the bay area (if you know, you know!). When people make food with passion, it shows. You order at the counter, there are 4 tables. In fact while we were there a family of 8+ was enjoying their dinner gleefully. They do traditional as well as modern takes on rolls. Every single roll was fresh, made with quality ingredients, well seasoned, well prepared and presented. We saw lots of to-go orders going out. Put aside all your premonitions and go enjoy the food. Will be back for sure. read more

Summary: Tasty food, but bring a water bottle! Food: 5/5 delicious Value: 5/5 affordable Ambiance: 2.5/5 quiet, but bright glaring lights We ordered several rolls and several appetizers. Everything was delicious! Especially recommend the chicken karaage and the hamachi deluxe rolls. Be aware, though: They don't really have typical sushi-adjacent drinks, including no water nor tea. read more

We found this place near my Airbnb...we read the yelp reviews so willing to give it a try. Mind you, my gf is Japanese and has a very "discerning" palate for Japanese food. Plus, we just returned from Japan a week ago so the awesome food (with great prices, thanks to a strong dollar) was still fresh in our minds. Well we were very impressed with this place! We ordered the vegetable tempura, salmon poke bowl, and Ichiban roll. I don't eat certain seafood and they were willing to replace the crab and eel in this roll with extra salmon. Not many places will do that. It was busy with people coming and going, but our food came out in a very reasonable time. The poke bowl had more salmon than expected and the roll looked as amazing as it tasted. This place definitely compared to the places we ate at in Japan, and let them know. Will have to go back there one more time before I head back to SoCal! read more

Great place if you're looking for somewhere reasonable for Togo. Sashimi is really fresh and they put a lot of fish in their sashimi salad. Store itself is really small and they share the space with a pizza shop so pretty sure there was only 1-2 tables. Service is friendly and really understanding and if you Togo a lot they give a big tray instead of smaller boxes. read more

Sketchy Restaurant with limited parking. I saw roaches around the dining table area. Food was fine.

This place is definitely a hidden gem. It is my favorite sushi spot in San Jose because the prices are super reasonable. Every roll is really tasty and the quality is consistent every time I come back. The inside might throw you off since it has hole in the wall vibes but I promise you the food makes up for it. I usually like calling ahead and getting takeout here. The workers are nice and this is for sure the best sushi in town. read more

Sushi Day - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Jose, California

My sister recommended me this spot & I was a bit skeptical at first since it's connected to a convenience store. I came here on a Saturday night & I like that they're open late! I did order over the phone before heading over & service was fast! There were a good amount of people in the restaurant but still lots of seating. Parking lot is spacious and didn't have to struggle to park. We ordered the Combo A, Philadelphia Roll, Lion King, & Crunch Mango. The portions were huge and the fish tasted super fresh! Definitely have to come back next time to try out their other rolls. I would reccomend bringing cash for the discount :) read more

Absolute killer value for money The California roll was massive and probably one of the best tasting ones I've had in a long time. Ngl when we opened the boxes I got a whiff of fishy smell but the sushi did not taste fishy at all. Very clean flavor with large slices of fish on top. We ordered in person so had to wait about 15+ mins for our order to be completed during the weeknight dinner rush I will be back and 100% encourage anyone thinking of trying this place to do so read more

Sushi Day - Combo 2 & 10 pc nigiri combo - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Jose, California

IMPORTANT NOTE: Bring cash to pay the exact price on the menu instead of paying an extra credit card fee I'm updating this review as I had returned to this place a couple of times since my previous review, and I feel like an update would be warranted. The ambiance is still about the same as it was before - a random convenience store that you can enter through the side of the building, blue painted walls and a decent amount of seating. The wait does take a while, but service is friendly enough. They did seem friendlier as of late (I'm unsure if this was because of my friend being with me as they've come to this place more often than I did), and remain generous with their food portions. You can get six pieces of California Rolls or Fire Rolls for only five dollars (it actually used to be 8 before they changed it), which is honestly a steal when they taste just as good as the California Rolls in any other place. This essentially means that you could get around 24 pieces of sushi for only twenty dollars, which is rather cheap in comparison to other places (I would suggest only doing this if you have a friend with you). Overall, my experiences here have been pleasant. Sushi Day has done a good job standing out from other places and I would be more than happy to return again for their sushi rolls. read more

SUSHI ANY DAY NOW...Placed an order for pick up. Was told 25-30 minutes. I showed up 40 minutes later. Still not ready. They said 5 minutes. I went to the liquor store next door and shopped for beer. Ten minutes later I returned and asked if my order was ready. They said 1 minute. Five minutes later I asked if it was ready. They said one minute. This is 55 minutes after I placed my order. I said "You already said one minute. Five minutes ago. I placed the order almost an hour ago and you said 25-30 minutes. Now it's been 55. Is it really 1 minute? I just want you to shoot me straight." Guy said "You have a bad attitude. No food. Don't come back." Clown show. If it's going to be an hour, say an hour and then it's not a problem. Went home and door dashed from California Wet Burrito; order at my door in less than 30 minutes. read more

Finally got to try Sushi Day after passing by it for several years! I wish I got a chance at the previous curry pizza spot that Sushi Day shared the space with, but not meant to be. Stopped by to place in person on a Friday afternoon. Very clean space, no one really there since it was around 1:30 PM. I'm not sure if there was only one cook/ staff but seemed like he was the main person there at the time! We ordered 3 rolls which took about 15-20 mins as the staff estimated to make: Orange dragon roll, Baked Spicy Tuna, Tuna Lover. For the price and how close the sushi spot is to me, it's pretty good. I would say the size of the rolls are average and feds 2 people well. Definitely orange dragon roll was my favorite which was a salmon, tempura California roll (with avocado). Everything tasted well together and my mom who doesn't like raw fish also enjoyed the orange dragon! The baked spicy tuna had scallops on top of a spicy tuna roll but I didn't really notice the scallops, which was fine since this was mainly for my mom. The Tuna Deluxe roll was tuna over a spicy tuna with avocado and I think I noticed how fresh the avocado was. Overall really good ingredients though and reminiscent to AYCE sushi spots. I would definitely come back when I need a quick sushi fix. read more

It had been too long since we had sushi and didn't want to go out so I ordered over the phone and 30 minutes later, bada bing! I ordered my usual Hamachi Deluxe and Ichiban while husband ordered the Rainbow and Lion King. I was surprised that the Ichiban had cooked fish and crab inside, so I must have ordered the wrong one because those are not my faves. My toddler doesn't eat sushi (yet) so I ordered their chicken appetizer and come to find out they top it with delicious sauces. I had to sacrifice and eat the exterior to give him the chicken inside. It was far from punishment but an unexpected surprise- next time will say sauce on the side. Unfortunately they do not sell a cup of plain rice so I had to make do at home for the kid. We paid $85 with tip for 4 rolls and a chicken appetizer. It feels like a lot given they are take out only, but it is delicious. The daughter taking orders is a lot nicer, but the area is still unassuming. read more

Sushi Day is a fantastic little hole-in-the-wall gem. Don't be fooled by its unassuming location connected to a gas station, because the inside is surprisingly nice with beautifully decorated walls. It's a small spot with just a few tables, and parking can be tight, but there's usually street parking in the nearby residential area. The ordering process is simple: you check out the paper menu and order at the front register. They accept tap to pay, which is super convenient. Now for the important part: the food. The sushi was very good and the hand rolls were delicious. Everything we got was seriously yummy. Service was friendly and fast. Our table was a bit dirty when we sat down, but we asked and they wiped it down for us right away. I would absolutely go back to try more things from their menu. Definitely recommend! read more

Came here and was skeptical since connected to a grocery store. Took awhile to place our order as we stood there and waited. Not gonna lie got some weird stares too and especially while ordering!

Sushi Day - Chirashi Sashimi Bowl & Tuna Roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Jose, California

Amazing as always!! The food, the service, and everything about fitness experience! From eating there or to go.... The food is always ON POINT. Seafood is super fresh EVERY TIME I come! The presentation is A1 and the quality and freshness of the seafood is also A1. Haven't had a bad experience ever, and I've been here over 100 times.... Best seafood in the area.... If you want to question me, I'd double down on that bet, with any sushi in the area, any time!! If you haven't tried their sushi, you're missing out. Ask them for the CESAR roll if you're a salmon lover. Not on the menu, but hands down an amazing roll if you've never had it!!! Hope this place is here forever!!! read more

This is a great takeout spot with limited indoor seating, conveniently located in the same space as Bombay Curry Pizza. The sushi rolls are reasonably priced, though contrary to what some Yelp reviews say, I found the rolls to be more regular-sized than huge. The service is quick, and the sushi quality is consistent. While it may not be the absolute freshest sushi out there, it's definitely satisfying and hits the spot when you're craving a solid sushi fix. read more

Sushi Day - Mangonada roll and cherry blossom roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Jose, California

If it was just the food and pricing, then this place is 5-stars, but I'm considering the location, etc. as well, so please keep that in mind. Customer Service: The employees are friendly. It's a pick-up and go place, so there's not much customer service beyond ordering, paying, and receiving the order. They do include a generous amount of chopsticks and soy sauce. Thanks! Parking: There's a parking a lot. It's a small plaza, so the parking lot may be full. It tends not to be in the daytime, but can be at night or the weekends. Pricing: The pricing is great. You get a lot of food. I would say items are average to below average for this area. Food: Our rolls are hefty and good, especially for the price. It's not super fresh like an omakase place, but it's also not soggy or tastes frozen like some other places I've trued. They also make an effort for the presentation-I really appreciate that. We get a mix of rolls and nigiri. Atmosphere: There are some seats here, but it's not a place that's set up for sit-down. It's a pick-up and go kind of place. They share the kitchen with an Indian pizza place; they're also connected to the liquor store next door. It's nice that they're open late for those late-night sushi cravings, but it can get a bit sketchy here at night. I've only came here once for a late-night order; it was a bit scary compared to the daytime. Overall, good sushi for a reasonable price! read more

This is one of my go-to sushi spots and has been ever since they first opened. They don't have a lot of seating, but it's perfect for take-out, and the quality is consistently great. The service is nice and straight forward. The prices are very reasonable for the portion sizes, and everything is always fresh and well made. I come here often and have never been disappointed. Highly recommend if you're looking for good sushi to go. A tip is to pay in cash The only thing I wish they had is the "monkey brain" appetizer that they make at other restaurants. read more

Fabulous sushi! Located next to/almost inside a mini market, it is a funny location, but regardless, there are so many yummy options for their sushi. I'm excited to try more! The food was so good I didn't even get a picture! I got edamame, as well as Superman roll and hot night roll (I think is what the rolls were called). Service was also good. Will return! read more

I've been curious to try this place for awhile now, but kept putting it off. Finally decided to grab takeout from here last night (a weeknight) and I had called in to plave my order. The estimated time provided was 20 to 25 minutes, but it actually ended up being 30 minutes. Seems like they were a bit backed up on orders due to doordash and some lady's tray order. Nevertheless, considering it was $26 for two rolls that were actually tasty, I would definitely come back (but will probably call in earlier). Some minor details I noted were that the tempura shrimp in the Orange Dragon roll was overcooked and the cucumber in the Salmon Deluxe roll was a bit big in comparison to other fillings. read more

Don't let the outside or inside of this place fool you! We found this place here on Yelp & we went without looking what the place looked like, like we normally do. When we arrived, the place was in between a liquor mini mart & a laundry mat. We were a little skeptical & ALMOST went elsewhere but I'm glad we didn't! We looked at the menu & the cashier was really nice & gave us recommendations. We went with the tiger dragon roll, red dragon & Mango(forgot the name) roll! The tiger dragon & red dragon were sooo delicious 5/5! I could see why this place has the ratings it does. 3/5 for the mango roll, it was ok, just not something we would get again. but if you like the taste of lemon, then maybe try that one! It had a little spice, but went well with the sweetness of the mango & sourness of the lemon. read more

This definitely is a hidden gem in the neighborhood disguised as a hole-in-the-wall restaurant. If you can look past the location and surrounding area, and don't let the attached convenience store set-up deter you from eating here, you'll find a simple and clean restaurant with hardworking staff and fresh food. The sushi and cooked food are both delicious. The portions for their teriyaki plates are generous. I ordered a lion king roll and my guest ordered a chicken teriyaki plate. We each tried a salmon skin hand roll. Food was of good quality. Courteous staff. Small parking lot. read more

If I could give Sushi Day 10/5 stars, I would. These little hole in the wall spot is nestled in between a convenience store and Indian Pizza spot. I've been going here ever since I discovered it a few years back and it never disappoints. Sushi Day is a family owned business and the service is always really great and friendly. They're take-out only and you really can't beat the prices. We got 2 special rolls, and a combo (5 piece sashimi, 5 piece nigiri, 1 CA roll, and 1 tekka roll) for $61. Between the two of us, we couldn't even finish it, it's really a lot of food and the sashimi slices are faaaaaat. If you love value and you love sushi, Sushi Day is perfect. read more

Best Chirashi Bowl takeout that I've had and the best price. Excellent tasting proportions of fish to veggies to sushi rice!

_+* MY FAVORITE SUSHI PLACE IN SAN JOSE! *_+ Although the surrounding area seems sketch, don't judge a book by its cover! AFFORDABLE sushi (average is $13.50) and they ACCEPT cash and card. OFFERS DINE-IN, TAKE OUT, AND DELIVERY SERVICES (like Doordash). Parking lot is small and may be full during peak hours. It is in close proximity to 7Leaves and Pekoe. I was craving sushi and felt really bad walking in 10 minutes before closing but the workers are very nice and they accommodated me! They even handed me my order directly so I didn't have to walk to get it on a table. I think the establishment is family owned since I saw the owner's children watching the TV. The restaurant is also connected to a convenience store and there is also an ice cream booth they run inside as well. I ordered the ORANGE DRAGON for $13.50 which was worth every buck. It came with 8 pieces although I wish the pieces were more bigger, to be fair I paid $13.50. It was super flavorful and I enjoyed every single bite. No complaints! I will be coming back in the future to try their other rolls whenever I'm back in town! read more

really long wait time for the food, around 40 mins i got here at 1 and didn't get my food until 1:40 and there were only two customers besides us and they don't give you water when you walk in or plates and the worker there don't even really work, i see them just sitting down. Additionally, the food itself was not definetly not fresh. The interior is connected with a liquor store so it is not too aesthethic and the area is small and there was a big fly just flying around bothering us. Lastly, the price, it was not as said on the menu. we were charged $10 more for using a card?!?? i would say don't be fooled by the other reviews . NOT WORTH IT read more

Sushi Day - Combo 2 - Sushi Bars Near Me - San Jose, California

It's a very small place that's combined with a pizza store. There are a few tables/booths for you to sit at so I don't recommend eating there with a big party. I recommend doing to-go if anything. I didn't have high expectations, but my boyfriend really wanted me to try it so I did. Mangonada Roll(5/5): The roll was very delicious and huge! I liked the slices of cucumbers on the side because it gives a nice cut of freshness to the saucy roll. I will say though, it's a little too much sauce but other than that it was quite delicious! Ichiban Roll(3/5): The roll was good, but I wasn't a big fan of the unagi that was inside. Maybe it was the way that it was prepped, but it just wasn't good to me. Everything else was good at least. Cowboy Roll(5/5): It's basically a Philadelphia Roll, but with cucumber and tobiko. Nothing was wrong with the roll and I very much enjoyed it! Salmon Tekka Roll(4/5): It was nothing out of the ordinary. It's a simple roll that couldn't go wrong. Service was quick and simple. Overall, I had a good experience and the rolls were a pretty good price too! Also the food was very filling! read more

I've been to this restaurant a few times, and they never disappoint! It's easily one of my favorite sushi places in San Jose. The ordering process is easy, wait time varies- normally around 25 minutes, but I always call ahead to order. They accept cash and card. It's a shared restaurant but there is some indoor seating available. My favorite roll is the lion king!! The salmon is baked to perfection and the sauce is delicious. I also ordered the orange dragon and the spicy tuna roll. Both were delicious. The orange dragon roll was fresh and savory topped with avocado. The spicy tuna roll had a good amount of spice to it and had a sort of sesame flavor which was pleasant. I love this restaurant and it's the first place I go to when i'm craving sushi! 10/10! read more

Sushi Day's kitchen is attached to a kwikeemart and shared with a pizzeria, the seating area about 5 tables total in a small casual setting. The parking lot's even smaller, considering there's a laundromat next door, so it seems to get crowded or full easily. Got the baked lion king roll and carne asada all star roll, and both were pretty good, typical size, enough for leftovers. The lion king roll was similar to other sushi spots (flavor and quality of ingredients), but tasty nonetheless. The carne asada roll was different (I've never had sushi like this), cucumbers added a nice crunch, jalapeños were spicy, and the steak was seasoned well but a bit tough. Service was standard, however my order took 30 minutes to be ready for takeout on a Sunday evening, so I recommend ordering in advance to avoid a lengthy wait time. They're conveniently open late, so grabbing some good sushi is never a problem when many other similar eateries are unavailable. read more

Super small sushi spot but you cannot beat the price they have here! They offer a variety of rolls with the average being ~$13.50, they also have other options like sashimi, poke, and more but we only got rolls.

This place has officially earned the title of my favorite sushi joint in town. It's a no-frills, quick grab-and-go spot -- but don't let that fool you. The quality is consistently top-notch, super fresh, and packed with flavor. Pro tip: Call ahead to place your order -- it makes pickup a breeze and the staff is always friendly and efficient. Also, pay in cash if you can -- they offer a nice discount, and you'll save more than if you order through delivery apps like DoorDash (which tends to mark things up anyway). Whether I'm grabbing lunch or dinner on the go, they've never disappointed. Great portions, fair prices, and some of the best rolls I've had. read more
