Tomadachi has changed. What happened to the quality? What happened to the portion size? The quality was not very good. Can you over steam edamame? Well they did. The sushi has a premium price but you get tiny pieces of fish. Service was never the best but even that dropped down a notch. Are there new owners? I gotta a find a new sushi place! read more

I've been coming to Tomodachi Sushi for a few years now and it's hands down my favorite sushi spot. The service is excellent! Very friendly, very attentive and very welcoming. I've truly never had a bad roll or a negative experience here. My go-to favorites are the Simi Roll (with goma sauce on the side), the Piano Roll, the Dynamite Roll, and the Spicy Shrimp Hand Rolls. If you're dining in, the complimentary miso soup is such a nice bonus and always hits the spot. Highly recommend if you're looking for some fresh sushi and excellent service! read more

The saving grace of this place were the very sweet servers. Great personalities and very friendly. There were 3 sushi chefs but it took a while for the food to come out.... When I finally got my roll with salmon and orange pieces, it was refreshing, but they totally forgot about my yellow tail avocado roll... I was already finished with my main roll when somebody asked if I got my yellow tail avocado roll yet. By the time I got it, it wad ugly, uneven, and hard to eat because the seaweed was pretty chewy.... The wait staff is excellent, but the wait itself wasn't great for a restaurant that wasn't packed... read more

We love Tomodachi so much!!! Best sushi in town and the most amazing staff! It's one of Simis best spots :)

I was in the area, decided to Yelp for some food and this sushi spot popped out and I'm happy it did. The spot has very delicious specialty rolls. I tried an albacore special roll and a chef's special salmon crispy onion roll. Both were extremely delicious, with Albacore special roll having something that looks like black truffle on top and Chef's salmon roll having delicious diced tomatoes as one of the ingredients, while being topped with a mountain of warm crispy onions with a drop of sweet sauce. Unique and phenomenal flavor profile for those rolls. The spot itself has that standard sushi spot design full of dark yellow wood finishes, as I recall. The service is very friendly, made me feel welcome. Will definitely be back to try some more unique stuff! read more

This place is delicious! Will definitely be going again. They had a great selection of sushi. We tried so many different kinds. My favorite being the white salmon! Their garlic edamame has officially become my favorite! It seems like it's marinated then fried? Hard to tell but it was amazing. Service was great. Waiters recommended cold sake and we ended up getter an extra bottle! It was called Kurosawa. Brother got a beer. The glass was sooo cold, the foam froze on the rim. He liked it. Ambiance was nice. They had a tank with live shrimp! To eat.. I didn't do it, they were too cute! read more

The service at this restaurant is incredible. Thanks to a cool and awesome server we had named Pat or Patrick. He was attentive, made sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond to make it the best dining experience we ever had. Fast, fun and with a smile is the way he rolls. He works everyday except Tuesday. So if you want the best service and a great attitude come in and ask for Patrick! Also make sure to leave a BIG TIP because he deserves it! The music at the restaurant was nice also. The food was great. Came out quickly. Red snapper was delicious. Salmon skin salad was good, udon was really good, scallop cut roll was okay but we didn't like the spicy mayo they used. Blue crab hand roll presentation was lacking but tasted pretty good. read more

I think we found our new sushi, establishment. Since O2 closed we have been trying various spots. We arrived around 7pm., the restaurant was busy. We walked in and were seated immediately. We sat at on the tables in the front of the restaurant, so I can't really say how big the restaurant was. There is a sushi bar. They have Sapporo, on tap, served in frozen schooners. My wife had a Chardonnay. No sake this time but they do offer it. We started with the yellowtail appetizer with yuzu and spicy tuna on crispy rice. The yellowtail was 4 pieces so everyone had a piece. The yellowtail was thinly sliced with yuzu sauce and scallions on top. The fish was fresh and tasty. The spicy tuna was 6 pieces, it was a solid dish. Next we ordered kampachi and mackerel sushi. Both fishes were fresh and had great flavor. The size of the sushi was a perfect one bite piece. Off the special board we ordered the triple belly special. It was 3 pieces each of yellowtail, toro, and salmon belly. The presentation was nice, the sashimi pieces were large, two bite size. Now we moved onto rolls. Salmon crunch roll was good, 8 good size pieces. The 911 roll was served with a chili oil, on the side. Great heat and flavor. Now we decide we have enough room for 1 more piece of sushi so we opted for the wagyu special. Tender torched pieces of wagyu on top of sushi rice wrapped in nori topped with caviar and pickled wasabi. It was truly a gift , wrapped with a bow. The meal was pricey but it was worth it. We swill definitely return and try more specials. read more

The tempura batter was so light and crispy, a measure of a good Japanese restaurant. We enjoyed the Yellowtail Fever roll that wasn't so spicy as expected with both a fresh jalapeño and siracha, placed with expert hand. The ambiance isn't traditional Japanese as SportsCenter is shown on both bar TVs, a plus for us. Service was polite and attentive. read more

Service is good, restaurant is very clean. I visited during lunch, ordered beef teriyaki Bento Box. It was so good. Vegetable tempura is one of the best. read more

Tried this place tonight. What a solid find. Every aspect is top notch. Service was friendly and efficient. The garlic edamame is such a simple dish but perfectly executed, addictively good. Black cod was moist and flavorful, mixed tempura was a good sized portion, crispy and fresh tasting. The popcorn lobster roll was a fun combo of sushi roll and crispy lobster bite topping. Portion size was ample, great value for the money. read more

We came here last night, my family had a variety of sushi, yellow tail sashimi, sweet shrimp and a few rolls. Place was clean and organized and the food was delicious. One of the best sushi we had ever had. However the service was not the best, no one check on us on refills, or if we needed anything. Every time we needed something we had to wave at the waitress or go get it ourselves. read more

This was my first time trying this place. Came in alone at 6:45pm on a Saturday alone & was able to sit at the bar (although all the tables were full.) I ordered the fatty Toro sushi, salmon sushi, & the yellowtail jalapeno sashimi. Each dish was incredible & fresh. The service was also great and friendly even though the chef was incredibly busy. Very cozy, authentic space. Worth the price & will definitely be coming back. read more

The ambiance was pretty chill, and the service was amazing. The sushi here is simply incredible. The 911 roll was off the chain, and not too spicy.

It was very busy but understandably so for a Friday night at 6:15. We were able to sit at the side of the sushi bar and have a drink while we waited for a table. We probably only waited 15 mins before we moved. We ordered the garlic edamame to start, which was delicious. For rolls, we ordered the fire salmon roll (though not loving salmon. I replaced half of it with avocado, instead), and the fantastic albacore - both were fantastic. My husband did also order some sushi and miso soup we had to ask again for and might have been forgotten but we're pretty forgiving then they handle it quickly and when it's really busy. The miso was a bit lacking and had nothing in it but broth. All in all a wonderful experience. Would recommend going especially at off hours - there were several parties waiting when we left an hour later. read more

Excellent sushi. We have been coming here for years and sorry I took so long to review. Really good fish to rice ratio, perfect temperature. The fish itself tasted fresh and is the right quality. The yellowtail here is the best, anywhere. Better than much fancier restaurants. It is like butter. Other things are great too. No need to go into the valley for sushi! read more

Wow!! This place has the most fresh sushi in town. So many options to choose from that are brought in fresh daily! I absolutely loved the Jumbo Scallop sushi, Toro, and Wagyu. We loved the wagyu so much that chef made us a custom roll with A5. Everything literally melts in your mouth. Service was also top notch and friendly! I loved the cute ambiance as well. They have different sake infusions on display that they make in house! read more

The sushi here is very good. I've now been to Tomodachi in Simi Valley twice in the past six weeks, and it's a great dinner spot. This restaurant is located in a shopping center along Los Angeles Ave. Don't let the shopping-center-esque exterior facade fool you. It's a solid sushi spot and it has very nice ambiance on the inside. The service is also excellent at this restaurant. The premium cut rolls are awesome. Be sure to try the mango salmon, as that one is probably our favorite. Their garlic edamame beans are very good and they've got a good selection of sake (both hot and cold sake). The shrimp tempura cut roll is a great choice, but you can't really go wrong at this restaurant. We will absolutely be back soon. read more
