Bento Box + Chirashi Don
Sophia D.

Stopped by here for a quick weekday lunch and the food was so good & such a great price! We ordered a lunch bento box w/ teriyaki beef & tempura and a chirashi bowl. They also gave us free edamame! The teriyaki beef was tender and had the perfect amount of sauce and the tempura was light and crispy. The chirashi bowl had extremely thick cuts of fish & was a great selection! It tasted extremely fresh as well. The portion sizes here are huge, we barely finished half of our meal! At the end, they gave us free green tea ice cream! Great & quick meal, I'll definitely be back

Chirashi

I like getting their lunch bento box. For the price and amount it's a deal. I typically get their chicken katsu or pork katsu with mix tempura and sashimi. Their sashimi is a mix experience. I've had it where they give a plump size pieces and others are smaller. Is the quality great, no, but you get what you pay for. Sushi roll is okay. I would say it's a good lunch spot for the amount of food you get. Service was good and attentive.

The food here is actually really good and comes out super fast, but the environment makes it hard to enjoy. It was hot as hell inside--honestly uncomfortable. I also noticed the cups were dirty, and there were flies and gnats flying around the table while we were trying to eat, which is a huge turn-off. On the positive side, the decor is nice, the menu selection is solid, and the customer service was good for the most part. If they could just fix the AC and tighten up the cleanliness, this place would be a 5-star spot. Great for a quick bite, but be prepared for the heat!

Sushi combo with avocado roll
Marta S.

We randomly walked into this place , hungry, and it was a very solid choice after all. I wish I took more pictures but we ate every bite as the food was coming out. The fish was fresh, my only complaint is that the fish portions were not very generous. I appreciate them not making up for it with adding more rice. We ordered a few rolls besides the 7 piece sushi special. We had more avocado rolls because they were fantastic, unagi roll, and salmon skin roll. All were very good. There were not a lot of people when we went. Service was kind and fast. It's a fairly quiet place. i will be returning here!

I think after a few years a new go-to order has been established. Everything is always overflowing with ingredients and made with care. Beef teriyaki bento box Beef Udon L&B roll Sushi Ken Roll Excellent

Located in a shopping plaza, parking is a bit tight during the holidays. it is located right next to Ike's. .on yelp it says you can make a reservation, but when we came, we were seated right away. when sat down, they served us some fries and edamame. which were good and delicious. their menu had plenty of options to choose from and was a big portion in size as well. the bento box looked really good! would i come again? yes, but i wish they had some eel options on their menu

Aburi salmon belly

Came on a Saturday afternoon and pleasantly surprised by their extensive menu. Also really appreciate that lunch bentos are also available on weekends. They start you off with a small bowl of french fries with ketchup and edamame beans? The fries were cold, but nice they offer you a little appetizer. We all went with bentos and I chose the saba shioyaki, CA roll, and sashimi. It also comes with rice, miso soup and salad. The prices here are incredibly reasonable for the amount of food you get. We also got an order of their seared salmon belly. The food came out pretty quickly as it wasn't busy at that time. My saba unfortunately had a ton of bones, so I was trying to pick through the fish as best as possible. The salmon sashimi was okay, but was very surprised how fresh and tasty the tuna was. The california roll had an off putting smell to me. The salmon belly pieces were very large but I have had better. Overall, it was a pleasant dining experience for the price.

I am pleasantly surprised. My husband and I have been struggling to find a go to sushi restaurant since we moved and a quick Yelp search led us to Sushi Ken. We were familiar with the area and Sushi Ken seemed to always have a decent amount of people inside so we were excited. First off, they give you edamame and French fries right off the bat and that's odd, but it's also welcomed. We tried different rolls, their udon, and their omakase and all things tasted really good. The presentation of the items was also pleasing. Their staff was attentive and service was quick. At the end of your meals, they also give you a free scoop of ice cream so that was a nice surprise.

Amazing service Delicious food Competitive price What more can you ask for? I highly recommend this place. I hope our next visit will be just like our previous visit here.

Sushi rolls, sashimi, rice, udon and ramen are all available at Sushi Ken and with their generous lunch combos served until 4 pm every day and dinner combos with two or three item selections are sure to satisfy that craving for Japanese cuisine, filling you up and keeping it all under 20 dollars a person. Sushi Ken is located in a bustling mall in downtown Fremont serving the local community for everyday needs. The parking lot can get a bit chaotic but if you're fine with walking, consider parking a bit further toward the side of the mall rather than in the middle near the main entrance (i.e., the closer you are to the coffee shops, the busier it is). Once you step foot into the restaurant, you'll be amazed at the colorful wallpaper depicting people at a fish market. You'll have the option to sit near the sushi bar or at one of the many tables and booth available. The place is quite large and it doesn't seem like they get a lot of foot traffic. There is a large TV that was playing the sports game of the night but otherwise, it was pretty quiet. I had originally made a reservation through Yelp but it clearly wasn't needed as we were just about the only patrons until about halfway through the dinner service. After being seated, we were given menus and waters. We had a bit of time to peruse the menu and ended up getting a few rolls and a three piece dinner combo including the saba (mackerel), tempura, sashimi, soup, and salad. The food was good and for the price, a decent value for Japanese food. As part of our meal, they also served a side of edamame and French fries for us to start on. California roll - very heavy on the imitation crab and not as balanced with the avocado but for fans of this roll, you'll have a good time with this protein rich bite. Unagi avocado roll - presentation on this decently balanced roll could be a bit better but it serves its purpose. Pieces of eel and avocado balanced in each bite, you'll get your fix with this one. Mango spider roll - beautiful and refreshing with sweet slices of mango. Perfect for the kiddos. Saba shioyaki - decently prepared mackerel although a bit dryer than others I've had. The taste was lighter than others as well. The portions were decent and paired nicely with the good mound of rice. Sashimi - thick and meaty pieces of tuna and salmon were delicious and melted in your mouth. Tempura - typically not a fan of tempura but the variety was great - shrimp, sweet potato, broccoli, and squash were all represented. Soup - miso soup came with the meal but was a bit saltier than I'd like. It still came out hot though! As an end to the meal, they also served a helping of ice cream (green tea). We originally came in for a birthday but they don't seem to do anything special for it so the ice cream was a nice consolation. The staff were generally present and helpful. When we asked for no ice in our waters and were given ice, they quickly corrected the mistake. Our waters didn't need constant filling so we didn't really experience the topping off that we typically see in other dine-in establishments. Overall, Sushi Ken has all things Japanese served at reasonable prices and decent portions. They don't seem to do anything exceptionally well, however, you'll get your fix and a pretty good value. It's probably best to get the combos when possible to make the most of your experience but their food options are priced well enough for dining anytime. Whatever you're looking to order, you CAN at Sushi Ken!

Chicken Katsu Bento and Teriyaki Chicken Bento
Priyaranjan B.

Sushi Ken has been a mixed but generally positive experience for us. We appreciated the complimentary edamame, French fries, and ice cream, which was a nice touch. On one visit, we tried the chicken teriyaki bento and chicken katsu bento. They were a bit underwhelming overall, and the chicken katsu was slightly dry. The tempura, however, was well prepared and enjoyable. On another visit, we tried their sushi and were much more impressed -- especially with the vegan options. The Mango Secret Roll and Vegetarian Tiger Roll were standout dishes and very flavorful. Service was fast on both occasions.

Agedashi Tofu
Mechy B.

My family and I dropped by for lunch after visiting the hospital the other day. The inside of the restaurant was a lot more bustling than it appeared. We were greeted when we walked in and a worker immediately rearranged tables to cater to our party size. While we were looking through the menu, they gave us tea and complimentary appetizers: edamame and fries. They even gave us an extra bowl for the edamame shells. And at the end, they gave us a little icecream treat. There is a good variety of options on the menu, ranging from rice bowls to bento plates to sushi rolls and soups. After a bit of a wait (that we didn't mind considering it was peak hours), I got my bento plate with 2 sides. I chose Chicken Katsu with Mixed Tempura and California Rolls. It came with rice, salad, and a miso soup which arrived first. Each and every component was great. I love tempura and I love that there's a mixed option because I like both vegetable and shrimp tempura. One thing of note, the shrimp tempura had a bit more batter than I desired. The pumpkin, eggplant, broccoli, and carrot were wonderful though. I also tried the Agedashi Tofu my aunt ordered. It was lightly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. The bento plate came out to be $15 which I think to be very reasonably priced. Considering the price, quality, and service, I will definitely come back whenever I'm in the area!!

Beef Teriyaki dinner bento
Heidi C.

I ordered the dinner bento with beef teriyaki, which came with miso soup, tempura, sashimi, and a side salad. Surprisingly, it was really good! Although the beef was a bit heavy on the sauce, I had some leftover beef at home and ended up using the extra sauce with it. The portion size was generous -- I shared it with my husband. Overall, the dinner bento box was definitely worth it. Total: $22. You can call ahead to place a takeout order, but I recommend timing your call so you arrive just before pickup. That way, everything stays fresh. My tempura was still crispy when I got home!

They are located in the Paseo Padre Shopping Center (often referred to as the 99 Ranch Plaza). They have plenty of parking here. The ambience is modern, updated, and clean. Simply decorated but with a good IG Photo op. Menu is on the QR code but you have to order with the waitstaff. They do have menus for you if you prefer. The staff were super nice, friendly, and attentive. We arrived close to when their kitchen was about to close, but we were able to order in time. They are known for their Mazemen, meaning "mixed noodles" in Japanese. It is a broth-less ramen style featuring thick, chewy noodles tossed in a concentrated, umami-rich sauce, aromatic oil, and various toppings. So, I ordered the... Deluxe: slice pork chashu, spicy minced pork, poached egg, scallions, chives, minced garlic, fish umami, seaweed flakes, seaweed, soft boiled egg. My wife ordered the... Mentaiko: (non-spicy or spicy) mentai caviar (slightly spicy), masago, poached egg, scallions, jumbo crispy shrimp Tempura, torched cheese, mixed greens, minced garlic, kamaboko fish cake, seaweed flakes. Our server told us to thoroughly mix our ingredients in each of our dishes and on my deluxe if I needed more flavor to add some of the vinegar (included kombu, red pepper). I loved the thick noodles that soaked up the sauce perfectly. We will definitely be back! Support your local business.

LENT 2026: GOOD FRIDAY LUNCH…read more The first time I ate at Toro Sushi Stone Grill & Bar was the last Saturday of February for my mom's birthday. We had a private room for the party. Out of food that was served I really enjoyed eating the sashimi, which was presented on a platter. I also liked grilled salmon. During Lent I wanted to come back to Toro for lunch. I thought about getting sashimi or grilled salmon when I came back. A couple days before coming to Toro for Good Friday lunch I looked at the menu online. Why pay for the dishes I ate before? One of the dishes that intrigued me was the baked unagi fried rice. However the baked salmon fried rice sounded enticing. Also one of the appetizers sounded interesting was the sashimi pizza. My plan was to order an appetizer and an entree for Good Friday lunch. On Friday when I got a table I looked at the menu. The lunch special listed unagi don. Then I started thinking to myself. Why do I have to eat only fish on Fridays during Lent? Vegetables are permitted during Lent Fridays. I looked at the salad menu and one item intrigued me was the avocado salad. Instead of getting a sashimi pizza for an appetizer I choose avocado salad. Knowing a salad would not be filling I ordered the crispy salmon skin roll. For entree I ordered the unagi don. I'll start with the crispy salmon. A lot of people don't like to eat crispy skin of a fish. I love it. The crispy salmon skin roll is a filling roll due to the sauce, which adds flavor to the rice. Instead of a roll I would like to see crispy skin salmon as an appetizer as it would be similar to a chicharron. Regarding the avocado salad I liked how avocado wasn't skimpy in portion. There's one thing I don't like in salad and that is water. I understand cleaning the lettuce to get rid of the dirt, but the lettuce better be dry instead of water dripping at the bottom on the bowl. I came here for the unagi don. I felt I made a right decision of ordering the unagi don instead of the baked unagi fried rice. With the steamed rice I could taste the eel whereas the fried rice would've overpowered the eel. The unagi don was a filling dish and I believe if I ordered a baked unagi fried rice I would have felt bloated. On this last Friday during Lent I enjoyed my lunch at Toro Sushi Stone Grill and Bar. I liked the sashimi that was served for my mom's birthday party than what I ordered during Good Friday. I can see myself coming here again. Maybe next time I try the stone grill items.

We ordered the Volcano Roll, Mango Crunch Roll, and Instagram Roll. The Mango Crunch Roll was definitely my favorite. It had a nice kick, so if you like spicy food, this one is a must-try. The Volcano and Instagram rolls were both really good too. We also tried the Fremont Fire Roll, which came out literally on fire. The presentation was cool and definitely eye-catching, but the flavor didn't quite live up to the hype. I was expecting more given how dramatic it looked. Overall, it was a really good experience. One thing that stood out was that by around 8 PM, the restaurant had completely cleared out, which felt a little unusual. Also, I remember they used to serve a crunchy appetizer before the meal, but we didn't get that this time. Not sure if they stopped doing that. Still, solid spot and I'd definitely come back, especially for that Mango Crunch Roll.
