    My favorite go-to spot for sushi & sashimi after a long day at work! Yoshi Happy Hour daily after 9pm never disappoints--fresh, delicious, and the perfect way to unwind. David always provides Great service, quick and great food! Ambiance is causal.

    Sushi and wasabi were very fresh. The sake we had was sweet. Great overall service as well

    Always a solid spot! Easy go to in the neighborhood, quick and delicious. They have some great deals as well! Never dined inside but as for sushi takeout, it's always been good to me. Can't say I've had a stand out dish but I can't say I've had a bad one either. Give it a shot and yelp me know.

    Yoshi Sushi is a great late-night sushi spot! They offer happy hour pricing starting at 9 PM, making it an excellent value. The service was fast, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the sushi was fresh and delicious.

    Chirashi Don
    Shaina P.

    Love having a spot where I can get a solid chirashi don. The sashimi slices were fresh and literally melted in the mouth. The ratio of sashimi to sushi rice is also very good. Service was also on point, and my food came out with little to no wait. Plenty of parking around the restaurant, and I literally didn't have to wait for a parking spot. Definitely would go back!

    Ordered sushi from here through DoorDash for delivery. There was a special for BOGO on the takoyaki. I also ordered a few nigiri pieces, a hotel California roll, and a dinosaur roll. All of the food was packaged really well and looked delicious. They provided chopsticks and soy sauce packets in the delivery bag as well. The Takoyaki was about $10-11. The nigiri was about $10 for two pieces, which I thought was on the pricey side. The cost of the rolls were more in line with other restaurants, around $15. Everything tasted very good and probably next time I'll go to the restaurant to eat.

    Fired Cracker(5 Pieces) Takoyaki Pink Lady Roll
    Monica L.

    Got a bunch of different items. The Fired Cracker aka Crispy Rice and Takoyaki were good. The Philadelphia Roll and Skewers were not good. The roll had fish that felt older and more fishy. The skewers were not flavorful and could have at least used some salt. Seaweed salad was a big portion even if there were mixed greens underneath it. Overall a decent sushi spot but not a place I'd be itching to go back to.

    Uni shooters
    Nerrissa S.

    Came in on a Thursday night with friends and stayed almost two hours enjoying the intimate ambiance, conversation and delicious fresh cuts of fish. We tried the uni shooters, had a few rolls including fried crab and a 49er roll (my fave) and it was so good! The sashimi portions were also thiccc and generous. Attentive service, ease to order in tablet, and the food came at an excellent pace! Will be back.

    This was recommended by a friend and I really liked it Menu is what you expect for a standard Bay area sushi place. The lunch special sushi are a great value for the basics. Did not try bento but it looked good. Exotic roll section was solid and diverse, lots of avocado inclusion as well which was unique Service was fast and direct. In some areas, you can see them actually making the sushi Ambiance is nice. Restaurant is well designed with chefs in the center, bar space on one side and tables on the other. Tables probably can't take over 6 people

    My new favorite sushi spot! If you're a salmon lover like me they have so many good options for you!! My favorite had to be either the mango crunch roll or the salmon skin roll. Next time I will be trying that salmon lovers roll! I also really liked their garlic edamame, it was almost buttery. I also really appreciated the servers there since they provided great service. And honestly really talking to get to know you. Inside is a little small so I don't recommend coming in with a party of 6+. But overall one of my new favorite sushi spots!

    - Lots of parking available via a shared parking lot - Good for groups of all sizes (from one person to larger groups). Booths and high tables available - Good for kids as they have fish the kids can watch - Food was okay - obvious emphasis on the fusion as it was not Japanese at all - The restaurant wasn't too loud - we came at a good time when it was fairly quiet

    A bug in the water

    If I could give no Stars, that's what I would give. There was a bug in my water and it just made the whole experience really horrible. They didn't offer to discount anything or even give me a free drink. Just a new water. I couldn't even eat my food after knowing the bug was in the water already.

    Food: Ume Bowl with Ochazuke Set Price: $26 + $4.5…read moreOverall: I came here with my boyfriend to celebrate our anniversary back in April! It is in the general area with Cere Tea and Koi Palace. We arrived around 6PM and were seated immediately. We came for the seafood don and both got the UME with an addition of the ochazuke set. For $26 + 4.5 for the set, I think it's really worth the price and you get a good amount of fresh fish. Each bite felt like I was transported to Japan and eating a Kaisendon. Although we had to wait for a bit for the dashi soup to arrive , it was a delicious end to our meal. So comforting and hearty.

    Cute little space in a very Asian-centric strip near that McCarthy Ranch area, right below Koi…read morePalace iykyk. Loved the quaint atmo, dark colors with zen vibes and the small space made me feel like I found a gem in an alley in Japan. Unique menu where they'll do a few fried apps, udon soups where they told me the noodles are homemade. And this rice seafood bowl where minced up tuna and other sushi ingredients are all in one bowl. I've had chirashi hundreds of times but I've never had a bowl quite like this...so I had to give it a whirl. Take Bowl ($33/4*) So this gets presented in a very Japanese fashion. On a tray with a decorative ceramic bowl containing the seafood and rice, a matching ceramic bottle of homemade soy sauce, a pickled cabbage side and a nice big wooden spoon. In that bowl is a base of warm plain short grain rice, topped with a generous mound of minced raw tuna, a little snow crab, a few chunks of raw scallop and this particular version has a ton of salmon roe. It is garnished with a small nori sheet, some scallions, pickled ginger and wasabi. So very familiar ingredients if you're a fan of sushi, but the experience is one I can say I've never done. Menu says to first make your own hand roll with that nori sheet, stuff it to your hearts content. Once that's done you can eat the bowl as you wish. Hopefully with a dousing of the soy/wasabi combo as the minced fish is completely plain, no seasoning. I kinda mixed the seafood mixture into the rice a bit, not sure if that's the move. Now here's my take on this new way to eat sushi ingredients. I liked it but I didn't love it. I think I would much rather just eat a chirashi or a tartare prep from a sushi chef, as those have texture and flavor added by a chef. Here you have to do everything yourself and often there can be a learning curve to the new experience. Like I had to add the soy/wasabi mix several times, as I just couldn't figure out the right amount as their soy sauce is much less salty than commercial versions. And I was too concerned on not going overboard and ruining my bowl, so I was doing it in a very cautious but cumbersome manner. Also since everything was so minced up, the overall texture is very one note, soft and mushy. At least with a chirashi you can sense each fish's firmness and unique texture. Here the chopped tuna, chopped scallop and shredded crab are all soft, and with the soft rice, was just a mush fest for me. There were small hunks of cucumber and pickled lotus root that gave little hits of crunch, but still not enough for me. I will say the seafood is very fresh and in good portioning. Fried Squid Legs ($4.50/4*) Very small skewer of trimmed up calamari tentacles fried tempura style. The fry is very light. The tentacles remain quite tender yet with a slight chew. But the crispness was minimized by the light fry. Still decent with the cold seafood bowl, to go back and forth on the bites. I'd still come back to try those homemade udon noodles, now that I've knocked out their seafood bowl. Give me an adventure and I'll delve right in. Thanks Yaichi for providing such an adventure.

(5 stars for the sando!). The sando came with two large chunks of pork cutlet (I assume that it is the same thick cutlet used in their curry and udon plates), slaw and sauce.it was as tasty as the sando one can get at a convenience store ("kombini") in Japan, say at 7-Eleven or Lawsons, but this one was steaming hot - very nice! I really appreciate the detail and care when preparing the plate. The hefty sando, though it came on a small brioche bun, was sitting on a raised metal grate to keep the bun from getting soaked from the sauce. Nice! The fries were super thin, but were crunchy, and they were lightly seasoned with furikake (seaweed seasoning). The tsukemono (pickled cucumber) were delightfully crunchy and slightly sweet. The rest of us in our party ordered Tonkatsu Curry over rice or Tonkatsu Udon. Very strange. A couple of us found the pork cutlet to be moist and juicy, while the other two found the cutlet to be dry. There must be a reason why this should be. But until the reason is found, this inconsistency prevents me from giving a fifth star. I am happy to see that since we first came to eat here three months ago, this restaurant has found its footing. But there are some improvements that need to be made to make this truly a five-star experience.

It's a casual sushi spot - can't really be mad at it if you're getting pretty good casual sushi with very reasonable prices that most other places (that are also casual around the area) would likely charge a bit more for. And for that, I definitely would order from here again. Polite service. Reasonably priced compared to other local and casual sushi spots. Good sushi; not the best I've ever had but again, can't be mad at the quality for a small casual mom and pop type of spot that isn't as modern or elevated and focuses more on serving what they have regardless. I LIKE it lol period! I think it's lowkey an underrated sushi spot in the Milpitas area for a casual sit down. Yeah some of their rolls can use a little more work depending on what you order, but don't expect too much for a place that still gives you quality for what it is, you know. *If you prefer more modern or elevated or Michelin-like style, then this place is 100% not for you. But if you're looking for something that doesn't break your wallet but still gives you good quality sushi in a casual, convenient spot, then give this place an honest try. I don't see why not.

I had it in Japan and it changed my understanding of how delicious food could be. I'll always dream about a particular pasta dish I had near Kyoto Station...but I digress. If you've never had Japanese pasta, it's sort of difficult to describe. Think of Italian pasta, but if the sauce were less thick and there were a greater variety of flavors and textures. I think it's an overall cleaner and more varied experience. I prefer it. When done well, it has a certain quality that keeps you addicted. You can keep eating it and savoring every bite without feeling weighed down. I just love it. La Casa Mia does it well. In fact, out of every restaurant I've tried that attempts Japanese pasta, this place comes the closest by far. It might even match it. During my most recent visit, I tried the uni (sea urchin) pasta. Amazing. But the standout menu item, everyone, is the Salmon Shimeji. Oh, I love it so much. So savory. Little chunks of salmon, with roe, dainty little mushrooms, and all kinds of other ingredients perfectly cooked blended. A sauce that warms your soul and makes you want to keep eating. I honestly wish I could describe it better, but ironically, my favorite dish in the entire Bay Area is so good that I can't describe it. You'll just have to try it yourself. If they ever take the Salmon Shimeji off the menu, I will probably literally cry. I need this. When things in life get rough, I go for this dish. I have not found anything in the U.S. that matches it. Oh, and the service was fantastic. The lady who helped us most recently was very attentive, thanked us profusely, and was unfailingly polite. Gosh, I felt so taken care of. Yeah. La Casa Mia. My actual favorite restaurant. Love it.

I have been here about 4 times already, and I am happy to recommend this wonderful venue to other sushi lovers out there! There has been a dearth of AYCE sushi that has been the talk of locals around the San Jose/Milpitas area. Okawa Sushi fills that void. The AYCE factor really shines when you opt for their Premium Course menu. The options made available for the appetizers, signature dishes and the nigiri menu are very delicious! For an AYCE venue, the freshness of their sashimi is on point. I personally enjoy ordering their salmon nigiri, but I didn't know that their maguro nigiri would be just as buttery, soft and flavorful! I also enjoy ordering their hamachi nigiri & salmon carpaccio. I didn't know that I would enjoy appetizers in a group as well. We kept on ordering the baked muscles, kaki fry and soft shell crab! Everything you order here is appropriately smaller size than the typical American portion sizes you expect elsewhere. This way you can keep on eating and explore the menu. You can order easily off of a QR code at the table or with staff walking by. And your friends who don't like raw fish have options at this venue so they can join you as well! This place is not very busy, and while relatively new, I have seen it gradually grow in size. I would expect this place to continue growing over time. For the fast service, freshness of sushi, and expansive menu, I strongly recommend Okawa Sushi to any sushi lovers in the area! Come for lunch where the prices are a bit lower (although the price is already decent)!

    I feel like I'm being gaslit reading everyone else's reviews.. I was so excited to try Ichika but…read moreit's ended up being the worst omakase experience I've had by far. And I've tried a fair share of omakase places. The prix fixe 9 course meal was $150 per person, and I personally feel the quality of the ingredients and overall seasoning of the dishes did not meet that price point. It was already a rough start with the appetizers. I'm also a texture person so maybe someone else would like these but I was not a fan of the vegetable jelly nor the goopy seaweed salad. Had I known this prior to dining I don't think I would have wanted to go with the omakase menu. The chawanmushi was very underseasoned and missing salt completely. On the menu it says it has crab in it but the only crab meat you get with it comes in a tiny claw that you have no way of digging out The nigiri, which I was most excited for, fell VERY flat. The fish wasn't particularly fresh and I found a bone in my nigiri. (??) The rice was also really dry and mushy. I was genuinely so disappointed at this. Miso sea bass was overly sweet which didn't really work with how fatty the fish was. It was too much. Also found more bones in the miso sea bass but that's less gobsmacking than finding it in your nigiri. The dessert, matcha tiramisu, just tasted like straight up cream and not sweet at all. I don't have a sweet tooth by any means but this could've used sugar. I didn't feel very good eating this, the fattiness of the cream plus not having any flavor ruined it for me :( Overall, the main theme is just the lack of seasoning in any of the dishes plus ingredients not being fresh. I know it's Kaiseki style, but the dishes also seemed very uninspired and plating was kinda messy. When I looked closely, the plates weren't clean and there were marks.. Maybe I'm being nitpicky but at a price point like this, the details matter. Word of advice, if you live in South Bay and want omakase, just take your $ and drive an hour up to SF. My bf took me here to celebrate our anniversary and I feel awful about how bad it was.. +1 star for the friendly service.
