I can't tell you how many times my mom has ordered from here! Every time we have a gathering of…read moremore than 5 people, she defaults to IV Sushi Togo. They're reliable, consistent, and know her by name! How is it that my first time picking up a sushi boat, the owner knew who my mom was because I look like her LOL. We usually order Sushi Boat #1 ($125) that serves 7-9 people or Sushi Boat #2 ($195) that serves 10-12 people. I would say the serving sizes are accurate; the sushi is always fresh and it gets compliments every time. The visuals ain't so bad either :) Since you're kind of "renting" the boat, you put in a $100 deposit (must be cash!) when you pick up Sushi Boat #1 and you get your deposit back in full when you return it. We usually wipe it down as best we can and return it the same evening or next afternoon. Sushi Boat #2 is a $200 cash deposit. I highly recommend ordering sushi catering from here!!

Ordered here for the first time after my friend recommended me…read more Quality was fresh. Price was good. Sashimi were very thick cut. The rolls were very tasty, we got the lion king and mango salmon rolls. They gave us 3 miso soup which was tastier than usual with some carrots in it! The only thing was the seaweed was a bit chewy. We ordered on a Sunday at 4 pm online and picked up at 7pm. Only had to wait a few minutes. Will definitely come back for more sushi!

This review is just for the Jungdon Katsu that is also in the same business as Taru Sushi because I…read moreonly tried their Katsu. Can't say how Taru sushi's quality is but I'd love to try next time. I ordered their $34 combo chicken Katsu that comes with a bowl of udon (or you can choose soba), corn salad, cabbage salad, and rice. The portion size was just right for my daughter and myself that we ate literally everything and satisfactorily full. It is the best katsu I have had so far in my many katsu experiences. It is light, fluffy, crispy while juicy at the same time and the dipping sauce is just right. Next time I'd love to try their pork katsu. Every table tonight ordered katsu as what I observed. No wonder their katsu is featured at SF chronicle (that is how I found this place). Would love to visit again and take a drive.

This cozy Japanese restaurant tucked away at the end of a little court is a hidden gem. The decor…read moreis very simple, but clean and comfortable. They also have some outdoor seating. For two adults and a seven year old child, we ordered a tempura udon, an edamame, a dragon roll, a tataki roll, 8 pieces of salmon sashimi, an order of toro nigiri, and an order of hamachi nigiri. Prices might seem a little high, but the quality and quantity of the food made up for it. The sashimi cut was extremely generous, each piece was more than half an inch thick. And instead of 8 pieces, we were given nine! And for the toro nigiri, instead of two pieces we were given three plus a small piece of sashimi. The hamachi nigiri was also really nice and big with a small amount of rice. Fish was really fresh and of high quality. The tempura udon came with a large plate of tempura. Besides two pieces of shrimps, there were yam, onion, eggplant, broccoli, green bean, and kabocha. There were also these fried tofu puffs in the noodles. The soup was slightly salty. The two rolls were both very tasty. Service was good especially because we were given extra food! Too bad I forgot to take pictures until we were almost done. I do recommend Taru Japanese Sushi & Cuisine.

The restaurant has a homey vibe to it where it appears to be managed by family members and most customers are repeat. The food here is top notch fresh and they are very generous about their portions. They have HUGE sashimi portions (almost double the size of the typical competitors) and their hand rolls are the size of an extra large ice cream cone. Still they are packed with flavor and made with care. Their shrimp and vegetable tempura was done perfectly (not too greasy nor too much breading), and their amaebi (fresh sweet shrimp) is a must try if you're a shrimp-a-holic. The shrimp head was lightly fried without much breading. Their hand roll is a must try (it's the first hand roll on their menu in the hand roll section) as it's a combination of the various fresh fish including uni (there's a mint leaf to give the hand roll a fresh clean taste). They had one server and one helper but they're very friendly and will take the time to talk with you. A definite spot to hit if you have a light night sushi craving.
