Ari Sushi has a large menu ranging from sushi, yubu/inari sushi, udon, and tendons. Our meals came with a miso soup, salad, and japchae! I got their ari tendon which was good! My whole party thoroughly enjoyed their food as well. The staff was very kind and was super helpful. And the interior is clean and aesthetic! I'd love to stop by again!

I was looking for a bento box lunch special for myself while in the area and stumbled upon Kaki…read moreSushi. I tend to shop nearby and have seen the restaurant but haven't been in the area during lunchtime until today. I did learn they also have lunch specials on Saturdays too, so I will be back with my husband next time. I walked in and ordered, and the lady was so nice and welcoming. My order was packed and ready to go without much of a wait, which was nice. It didn't take long, so it's very helpful for people on a time crunch. I got the 3 item bento box with katsu chicken, California roll, and sashimi. It also came with miso soup, salad, and rice. I got it to go, so I was happy the soup was included because I notice some restaurants don't always include soup on togo orders. The katsu chicken was light and seasoned nicely, and the katsu sauce tasted a little different than normal, so maybe it's freshly made. I wasn't a fan of the California roll only because I am not a fan of the whole roll chunks of imitation crab meat but it wasn't a full deal breaker. The sashimi tasted fresh with a nice, soft, buttery texture. I still think about their sashimi at times, it's up there with some of the best pieces of fish I've eaten.

My son took us to Kaki Sushi for lunch a few weeks ago. They have a pretty comprehensive menu. My…read moreson ordered a bento box. His wife ordered a donburi bowl. My wife ordered sukiyaki and I ordered a 3 item bento box. I had gyoza, mixed tempura and chicken katsu with a salad, white rice and miso soup. I liked all three items in my bento: the gyoza didn't have a crispy bottom but good flavor, chicken katsu was tender with a nice deep fried coating and the tempura was fried nicely (light and crispy). My wife liked the flavor of the sukiyaki and the ingredients. My son's wife had a sashimi donburi with fresh fish and my son went with a three item bento beef teriyaki, mixed tempura and three piece nigiri. He said the Nigiri was fresh, tempura was fried nicely, not oily and the tempura was tasty. The Miso soup and salad were fresh and tasty. We will definitely go back. For a wide selection with fresh food and prepared after you order, give Kaki Sushi a try. Staff is very attentive.

With so many options in the area I decided to try this spot out that didn't have too many reviews…read morebut it had a good amount of positive reviews. I came in around 6pm and when I walked in there was 1 other table there and not busy. I would say it's a small spot that seats less than 50 people but it was nice and clean. I decided to get two rolls and a 6 piece nigiri that comes with a hand roll. Gorilla Roll - 9/10. I'm always a sucker for seared rolls. The salmon being seared gives it extra sweetness and the siracha mayo actually had a nice kick it to it and wasn't just sweet. The fried shallots on top added nice texture being crunchy with extra flavor. This was my favorite roll. Rosewood Roll - 8/10. You can taste that the fish is fresh. If you like salmon and tuna I would get this roll. What I liked about it as well was the spicy crab on top which carried a small amount of spice but adds to the flavor. Moriwase - 9/10. It comes with 6 nigiri and a hand roll. Again the fish is fresh and has good flavor. The portion was normal, definitely not small. The nigiri comes with a brush of soy sauce so no need to dip, but feel free to. I just wish it had some more wasabi cause I didn't taste any. It came with a spicy tuna hand roll which I liked a lot because it had a good kick. Service was great even though I was the only one in there after the table before me left but the lady was very nice and attentive. She even offered some home made dessert that was packaged in a cute box after having some small convo. I talked to the sushi chef and he's been making sushi for over 15 years and I could tell that he puts some passion in his craft. He told me everyone says the fish is fresh but he really tries to make the flavor known which I think he executed well. They also get their fish flown/delivered on Tuesdays/Thursday. If you're in the area I would recommend trying this spot. It's definitely a safe option and I'll be coming back to try the other items.

Both the atmosphere and food were disappointing…read more This is a casual spot which is totally fine. That said, phone sounds blasting from the kitchen does seem a bridge too far for me personally. It's just not professional and totally kills the possibility of an enjoyable meal. Service was friendly, but on the slow side. The atmosphere is super informal, featuring posters of food that is not actually on the menu. Food wise, it was OK. The miso soup was pretty expensive. The best dish by far was the futo-maki roll. Really good flavor for a vegetarian roll. The 'fresh crab' in the other roll we ordered was not good. Rice being IMO the most important element in sushi was executed well, but my chirashi had all the fish served fridge cold and with pretty rough, haphazard cuts. For the overall price of the experience, it just doesn't seem worth it.

We were looking for Japanese wagyu bbq and our first stop was actually Chubby Cattle, but sadly…read moretheir waitlist was closed for the night. Luckily, we found Nikuya which had a very similar menu and also offered Japanese Wagyu for a bit cheaper! We got their premium set which is the only one that offered Japanese Wagyu (other tiers had Australian wagyu). It was still a 2hr wait on a Saturday but I am so happy I waited because the quality of the meats was amazing and the sashimi was so delicious! The sashimi had a nice citrus marinade that cuts down the fatty wagyu perfectly. I also love how they have a banchan and lettuce self-service bar because I NEED tons of radish slices and lettuce wraps with my bbq. Ordering is done on a tablet and the servers brought out the next round before we could even start cooking the previous, so we were never without food on the grill. Overall, highly recommend this spot!

Haven't been back in at least 9-10 years, and it's still just as good as I last remember it!…read more This was my go-to when I used to work in the area. The only difference is that they largely moved to just serving dine-in orders in plastic to-go boxes. Coming back here after so many years made me realize that this is the place where I think they do the Lion King roll the best. Almost every other place I've tried has a weird twist to their recipe. Fat Fish's Lion King roll recipe is solid and the standard to beat, IMO. It's gotten pricier, but what hasn't these days.

Ordered online in advance, egg rolls and the lion king baked roll. The dedicated parking lot was…read moreconvenient. The restaurant setting was fairly plain, but I noticed that they offered a good amount of seating inside for dine-in guests. Was quoted 15-30 minutes online, but it was ready when I arrived about 10 minutes after ordering. Then I discovered that the order was wrong. I was given edamame by mistake, instead of egg rolls. No apology given, just confusion (one worker questioning another worker on why she would do that), but they assured me they would make the correct order and it would take 5 more minutes. In reality, I had to wait an additional 10-15 minutes, but at least they fixed the issue. Staff was friendly. Btw, the menu states that the egg rolls are made with a mix of veggies and meat. But these were filled with vegetables only, no meat. Taste was okay, and the eggroll wrapper was thicker than I'd prefer. I'm used to the king and queen eggroll spots where the product has more size and better flavor with a light and crispy exterior (I know plenty of these in the south bay). It wasn't bad, but I probably wouldn't get this again at Fat Fish Sushi. On the other hand, the lion king roll was really good, made with quality ingredients and prepared perfectly. Too bad it got cold since it was ready 15 minutes before the rest of my order.

When we arrived for dinner we were seated immediately. We've been to Kura a few times and have our…read morego to items to order. More recently, they had higher end fish like chutoro. For a fast food sushi restaurant, their chutoro was pretty good. In the past, we've had challenges getting a table during peak hours, but it seems like its gotten a bit better.

Ok - let's talk- this place is interesting - very Interesting -…read more We were immediately seated and it is steady- busy on a Sunday afternoon and there a lot to see. Our booth had some ripped seats which is kinda strange for me to see. The little carousel is kinda cool like in Japan - the sushi rolls come by and you pick off what you want . Small plates - just the right size. You drop you plate in the slot and it counts your dishes . You can order off the screen and it comes right to you for drinks on a little robot . Kinda neat- The staff were nice and they didn't have seaweed salad. Interesting to me. But no worries I will be back hopefully they will fix the seat - otherwise I would have given 4 stars . Plenty of parking - nice staff- fast service - the food is good - and fast

They don't have a very large space and the parking lot is a bit tight too. We were greeted kindly when walking in and our food only came out ~10 minutes after ordering. I tried the 49er's Roll and it was just okay. I think what made it not as great as I expected was that the roll tasted dried out, and it seemed like it was cut sloppily too. The roll itself was $17 which made it a bit more disappointing since it felt like the quality didn't match the price point. Service was great, but unfortunately the food just didn't hit.

Shinkai does-- automatic plus for me. I ordered the Sushi Crafter Box and salivated as it being walked over to my table. It looked so satisfying that I didn't even want to dig in. But of course I had to. It was incredible! I normally don't love fatty tuna because the texture can be inconsistent and veiny but it was soft and not veiny at all! My fiance ordered 2 rolls, and a sashimi appetizer and loved it all. We were able to share everything we ordered and both left very satisfied. The service was fantastic, waters being refilled without having to ask and the restaurant was clean. It is a bit small unfortunately but that's just to say, expect wait times!

Very solid sushi and Japanese food joint - above average fish quality for a pretty good value (all…read morethings considered) What impressed me was the omakase, the fish was notably more flavorful and had higher fat content. Flavors and seasoning all balanced well, they put shiso leaf bits in between under the typically gamier fish and rice. Savory roe bits dot the top of some of the stronger tasting fishes. And 8pc were only $40. Salmon rolls (salmon salmon) and (orange ocean) were both good. Nice citrus hit in orange ocean but doesn't overpower - salmon salmon roll had good crisp and umami from the fried skin. The sashimi platter was solid - nothing that blew my mind but it was pretty good quality fish, only minor complaint was it was cut into oddly shaped chunks and not consistent in texture between each bite Also they gave a LOT of plum wine, not skimpy at all!

It's a large place with three workers, but no other customers were there. He had tried it before and loved it, so I had to oblige. I ordered the Salmon Teriyaki plate with salad, rice, and a starter soup. My plate wasn't anything spectacular--it was tasty enough, but not amazing. I did enjoy the sushi that came with it, so that was a nice bonus. My brother ordered two sushi rolls. They took longer than my plate since they were baked rolls, but once they came out, they were delicious. He let me try both, and I loved how they were topped. I've added pictures to this post because I don't know their names, but they're definitely something you should try. The service was standard--not outstanding, but friendly enough. I'm not sure why it was so empty, because the sushi is really good.
