Food was good and service was very fast. We ordered the Rainbow Roll, another roll, and the Molly and Strawberry Nigori. Had it not been a cold, rainy, and windy day -- and had a disabled guest not been told to sit outside while plenty of seating was available indoors -- this likely would have been a five-star experience. However, I did need to address an ADA issue. Unfortunately, I've had to educate many businesses on ADA law, and it can be exhausting. Service animals are legally permitted anywhere the public is allowed. Most violations occur because staff are not properly trained and may confuse service animals with emotional support animals (ESAs) or pets. I hope management continues training staff so future guests with disabilities do not have to advocate for their legal rights themselves. read more

My first time coming here, found them on yelp and really wanted sushi that was close by the hospital. I'm glad my husband and I came by. My favorite role was the sandy roll. I love everything with lemon and this was just the perfect lemon, flavored with salmon. We also tried the bowl with salmon which was good however it was too much rice. I would recommend them read more

Last-minute decision to stop in for lunch. Got a great parking spot in front, but there's plenty of parking in back, too. Wonderful, shady, comfortable outdoor seating. Ordered the Teriyaki Beef/Chicken Combo. Started with a somewhat soggy Cabbage Salad that seemed unfresh with a dressing that lacked zing and flavor. The Beef was tender, but the Chicken was terrible. It had a rubbery, odd texture that seemed pre-cooked and reheated, not freshly grilled, and, most importantly, both meats lacked the char crust that perfects this dish. Took home for later, Chicken Gyoza and California Roll. The Gyoza was ok, but the California Roll was poor--mushy, watery crab. The server was overly enthusiastic, leaning over the table when just handing me the menu, asking for my order. They never once checked back on how my meal was or offered a water refill. They were quick to drop the ticket and present the CC device for payment. This could be an amazing place if they would level up. read more

Sushi Terri is my favorite place to go after a long day at work or just because I'm craving some teriyaki chicken. I highly recommend this place for all the combination specials, especially the teriyaki chicken and tempura with California roll. Our family likes to try the sushi special and the last trip the Carrillo roll was by far the most liked item on the menu. Staff recommended the chicken Katsu, which was enough to feed three people and we took home for lunch the next day. Additionally, the cabbage salad is a hit for even those who don't like salad. I just wish that they would sell the salad dressing to take home. read more

Popped by Sushi Teri last night for a quick Sunday night bite, haven't been here in awhile. Happy to say they have upped their sushi game and now also serve Moet & Chandon bubbly, which is so lovely for us non beer drinking girlies. The sushi was actually pretty epic, will definitely have Sushi Teri back in my sushi restaurant rotation. SB is definitely a great place for sushi and I'm so here for it! read more

We come here frequently. It's solid. Always good and fresh. Especially love their salmon sashimi.

Awful and very strange. Not what it was in the past. The food was terrible and the service was extremely slow. Goleta location has the best food service and vibes. read more

My husband and I came in and were greeted and seated right away, the staff was so friendly and attentive and to top it all off the food was excellent! We recommend the Carpenteria Roll!! We will be coming back! read more

Always the BEST!! We dine or order with ST multiple times in a month. We've never had an inferior experience. The Combo plates are fabulous with several variations (including tempura). Take-out or dine-in, the quality and consistency never wavers. We truly enjoy both, and the flawlessly prepared and very carefully packed food is at the ready to accompany us anywhere, (ie: visiting & sharing with friends, off to the beach or park, or home to quietly relax and enjoy)! Thank you SO MUCH Sushi Teri, for being one of the ABSOLUTE best things about Santa Barbara. No other similar fare offerings in our area compare. You sit at the top of that mountain. Just writing this makes me want to place an order!! read more

The baby lobster roll was to die for!! Thank you so much! Service was also excellent! read more

Having worked at a similar restaurant owned by the same people I'm always happy to come here. Last week my friend and I came in 30 minutes before closing to order to go. In the past I've asked to substitute items in the combos, and was told this time rudely by a staff member, they couldn't change the order and the chef behind the sushi bar nodded in agreement to my initial substitution. Instead I had to pay 3x the amount to order separate rolls, which wasn't what I originally needed. Sad to see service like this when I love this family run business. At least I got all my utensils. read more

Imagine my surprise when I discovered sushi Teri in Goleta has a location in Santa Barbara! Firstly their nigiri is HUGE! I'm not a size queen but for their salmon nigiri, I am! Buttery soft and flavorful. This location is no different in quality but I like the location and outdoor patio. It's a beautiful place, intimate, cozy and the service staff are so very attentive. That kind of attentive I like. You just lift you head and look around and they come ask you what you need. I love that. I need that. The sushi rolls are for comfort. Lots of avocado and cream cheese. I need these even I'm exhausted from driving my commute so thank you sushi Teri, we truly love you! read more

I'd return here again if I'm ever in the area. I love the whole mom and pop vibe of the place. They were supposed to close within 20 minutes of my arrival, but they still made me feel welcome and not rushed. I was with two other friends and we were all happy with the sushi. All the fish tasted fresh and you got the value for your money. read more

I was so excited to get reacquainted with Sushi Teri, a regular in the day. Unfortunately. Chicken w/"vegetables" means one small slice of carrot, Broccoli and zucchini, which looks more like a garnish. Service can use a smile. read more

Service was great! Everyone was very attentive, and answered questions we had about the menu. They came to check on us often, and cleared plates right away. The food was good, but not knock my socks off amazing. All in all, I would still recommend this restaurant. read more

My wife and I ordered the Oriental Chicken Salad and the chicken was tough and many pieces has gristle and were inedible. I called to complain, hoping we could get a refund or credit. Although the front line people were nice, they put me on hold and spoke to the owner who offered a 25% refund. How insulting to a regular customer. read more

love this spot !! have been coming here for a few years now! the workers are really nice. my boyfriend and i have tried almost every roll in the menu. it's so good and nothing fancy so it's pretty affordable for sushi read more

#ThankYouThursday I've been to their other restaurants in Goleta and Carpinteria, but this one is my preferred location. Certainly grateful for many tasty sushi dinners and take-outs over the years, especially when I was a college student with a limited budget! Sushi options are abundant in Santa Barbara, but the ones worth going to are high-end establishments reserved for special occasions. A good amount of the neighborhood joints tend to be mediocre, while still being on the pricier side. Sushi Teri manages to strike a balance, with fish that taste fresh, pieces that are decent sizes, and costs that are reasonable. The sushi rice holds up well and has the right amount of vinegar. When it comes to rolls, they have a good variety of choices on the menu. On a recent visit I tried the "New Crunchy", which is a deep fried roll that contains crab legs, shrimp, avocado, cucumbers, and cream cheese. It was a to-go order, but the outer tempura shell survived a 30 minute car ride and was still crispy by the time I sat down to eat. The combination of seafood and vegetables went well together. The cream cheese was unnecessary, but it wasn't overpowering. A big shoutout to Laxman Perera, Keiko Miyata, and the rest of the team at Sushi Teri/Nikka! This local restaurant group is responsible for bringing many delicious concepts to the area. TY! read more

Amazing food! I got California and tempura rolls and they were to die for! Not to mention the teriyaki chicken combo was amazing at a good price. I got the spicy chicken and it was amazing as well. The people that took our order were so sweet, they allowed us to call in an order for takeout 2 mins before the cutoff time and were completely understanding. When I got there for pickup the restaurant looked so clean and well put together. Will 10000% be back. Highly recommend! read more

Such a fun and delicious place for lunch. Their outdoor patio is bright and sunny, and very pet friendly. Their Daily Specials are always full of tasty surprises, and their Lunch Specials offer something for everyone. Thanks to server Anuk for being so attentive and for taking such good care of us. He made several food suggestions for us, and they were spot-on. Whether it's here in Santa Barbara, or at their Goleta location, everything served is always fresh and delicious. read more

It comes with miso soup or salad. Fish is very fresh, and delicious! It is big enough portion for $20. Strongly recommend !! read more

Sushi Teri House - Chirashi bowl - Japanese Near Me - Santa Barbara, California

Yume used to be our favorite sushi place but now that it has moved, Sushi Teri is our new go to place. It's cheaper and portions are good (they give more rice and generous slices of the fish as well). Will note that the eel and mackerel were more fishier then Sushi 29 (We had just come from Sushi 29 (new yume) and wasn't satisfied-their rolls were costy for the amount given and we wanted a round 2) We normally only order sashimi-so I can only recommend this place for sashimi and drinks as of right now. read more

Me and my wife recently ordered takeout from the location in Santa Barbara and we're very disappointed in the food. It's all he was cooked in properly for California rolls were not anywhere near the quality that we've come to know and the beef tasted funny. But the saddest part is that they have no email address to get a hold of them on their website I don't think we'll be going back to sushi Terry anymore read more

I would leave 0 stars if I could - put an order in to go, and when they gave the total I let them know I had a gift card. The girl in the front asked me to hold and very loudly we heard someone in the back yell "JUST TELL THEM NO, JUST TELL THEM NO." The woman over the phone said "uh - I'm sorry we can't take your gift card". I asked why and she said "uh - I'm not sure", then hung up. Unreal - cannot believe that a business would not accept a gift card at it's own business. I understand there are different locations, but there is nothing on the card that says "not applicable for Santa Barbara location". We don't even like Sushi Teri food (it was just a gift card we were just trying to use) - I can attest to how horrible the quality is, literally the sushi at Whole Foods is better than this trash. 0 stars Sushi Teri. read more

Doesn't seem like much when you walk by, but... Wait no that was the Yelp boilerplate:) Actually looove this place! Who could not love the California roll, it was the best! And the Omega roll has to be experienced do not get FOMO! This is my #1 SB Sushi place now! read more

We got take out from Sushi Teri on Bath st. It was okay. I was disappointed that my avocado roll kept falling apart. My stepdaughter got the teriyaki chicken plate and it came with enough food for 2 people! She enjoyed her meal. The miso soup was good as well. We called in our order 15 minutes before we arrived and it just came out ready when we went to pick it up read more

Hands down best affordable sushi in town! My friends and I go here at least once a week. Always super friendly service and great quality food read more

Good quality fish and reasonable. We have return over and over. Always pleased. Their chirashi is our go-to dish.

First off, service was great. They worked so hard to accommodate our party of 7. Food came out fresh and fast. They also were so nice to my dog. We ordered the spicy edamame which was delicious. The shrimp and veggie tempura was crispy and light. And our rolls were good. I even ordered chicken for my dog, he of course loved it! The outdoor ambiance is nice and they have the heaters going to keep you warm. Price was good too. I will be back! read more

This is my favorite sushi spot in Santa Barbara! Their prices are reasonable and the food is always great quality. I get the Sushi Sampler every time which gets you rice, miso, a salad, 3 nigiri pieces and 3 small rolls. read more

One of the better quick sushi spots I have been to. The seating is well put together with indoor and outdoor options and it's flexible to find because the service is usually fast(which is my favorite part). They have combo deals on weekdays that I love to check out but anytime of the day you go the food is great quality. read more

I live close to this restaurant so almost always do take out. It is a cute neighborhood restaurant with warm welcoming atmosphere. I have never been disappointed in the food or service. Last time I decided to try their lo carb rolls. Wow, I really enjoyed them. A win win for me as I try to cut down on my carb intake. Spicy, tasty and filled me up. Pair with a little sale and beer . I recommend any of their rolls, always fresh and tasty. read more

I've been going to Sushi Teri for years. You don't go for the sushi - the rest of the food is fine but there's much better sushi in town. Tonight I tried to order by phone and got a message that the number wasn't taking calls. So, I drove over to order, no big deal. I told the server their office wasn't working and she said they don't answer the phone when they're busy. I kind of didn't believe her, so I asked two others, and they confirmed. First time it's happened to me, but ok, it's their restaurant. Otherwise I'd give four stars. read more
