    The first two times I came here was very good and tasty but the last time was a nightmare. Ordered for pickup first off they forgot one of my rolls so I had to go back and then upon getting to our destination and finally ready to eat my wife's 2 caterpillar rolls were missing the eel inside and was just stuff with imitation crab. I ordered the spider roll which comes with soft shell crab and there wasn't even any crab in the roll by only on the ends and once again stuffed with imitation crab so we went back to point it out to them and the own didn't want to make it right thinking we were just trying to get a free meal. The rolls are $15 and up for that price we expect good fresh sushi and get what we pay for. The food is no longer fresh here and the owner blames inflation as the reason why they skimp customers on the fish inside the rolls. Not cool at all and will not be coming back. Find a better quality spot for the price it is definitely not worth it to eat here.

    Great place. Came here as employees of the hotel we were staying at recommended it. I’m used to sushi in dallas which is very good but this was a different level of fresh. Color in the tuna was amazing as well as taste. Small quite nice Resturaunt to visit. If back in California again I could see us going back Also pricing is very reasonable for quality of food you get.

    Me and my girlfriends go to sushi spot for years, until yesterday we ordered our usual dragon roll and spicy tuna roll and they were HORRIBLE. it didn’t look nor taste right. It tasted really OLD and the color looked off. ’im really not a picky eater but something was off. I went into the restaurant to return my food to explain to the workers and the owner. The owner started telling me his food is fresh everyday and to prove his point he brought out a tray of tuna that looked HORRIBLE and was in a dirty dish… do not give this restaurant your business if you want to get food poisoning due to fish gone bad. They need their food rating revoked. Horrible. If I can give 0 stars I would.

    The food was really not that great. Did not seem very sanitary either with food lying out for what seemed like a while. Go at your own risk. The staff earned that second star they were cool.

    Avoid at all costs. I would guve this place 0 stars if it were possible. Let me go ahead and break down the whole expirience. Service: The waiters were extremely nice and came around often to see if we needed anything. Our first waiter failed to put in our initial sashimi platter order which was fine, we didn't mind it. Food: I don't think I've had worse sushi. We ordered the Philly roll, and additional roll which I can't remember the name of, along with the 12 piece sashimi platter. The rolls were okay in terms of rice and the filling but lacked flavor. The salmon was kinda warm which is odd for a fresh roll. The same applies to the other roll. We ordered the 12 piece sashimi plastered but got served and charged for the 30 piece one. My partner and I were extremely confused given the fact that 2 different waiters asked and verified the 12 piece on 2 separate occasions. The salmon was flavorless along with the yellow tail. The tuna was somewhat frozen in the middle as if it was still thawing. It also had an extreme fishy taste (like when fish is starting to go bad). We ended up eating about half and leaving the rest to go to the trash. I know the platter came with a salad and soup. The salad was probably the best part of the meal and we never got our soup but after the rest of the food was served, we didn't think it would be worth it to stay and wait.

    The only thing good was the seaweed salad to be honest. The place is a mess. Everything is covered with dust and used cups next to the soda machine from neglect of cleaning. Staff wasn’t rude but they weren’t welcoming. There are other sushi bars near hear that are worth the meal but unfortunately this one isn’t it.

    Server was rude and just terrible overall. Gave me and my friends attitude when we had questions. We tried to pay with 3 separate cards, and we wrote down clearly how much each one would be charged, they had the nerve to split it even between all 3!! Also why do they charge for refills on the small ice filled cups they make you pay like $2 for. Also the teriyaki chicken tasted burnt and dry. The only silver lining was my crunch roll (which i paid $14 for), just go to Samurai instead.

    Looking for sushi and a great deal? Make sure you get here quick because the rolls are as big as my belly and the prices are great.... the only bad thing is my bank account that can't Handle the weekly trips.....

    I was in rush for eating lunch and using restroom and wanted to eat something healthy... Definitely, I have gone to better sushi places and more fresh.

    The servers were terrible. We were here around 7:30-8 ish, and we ordered 4 premium rolls, but the guy server was very distracted, so we’ve been keep asking for napkins, water, and chopstick repetitively. But we were waiting about 30-40 mins, and order was not coming out, so the girl server find out that our orders were not even went through! And I asked owner that me and my friend will leave and I’m ok to pay for 1 soda I’ve ordered, but the owner didn’t even properly apologize and just saying sorry with no sincereness. And the guy server who took our orders was just eating his dinner even we were telling about our experiences at the counter while the guy server was eating his dinner on the side of the casher! I think the servers and owner both have intension to sell proper service. I pretty sure the food will also gonna be terrible too. We went to the Oji Sushi instead, and at least the servers were not that terrible and foods are good…

    If your into rolls not sushi this restaurant has a variety of rolls. Their sushi is great, I'm not too much of a roll person but most people are. Sakura portions are no joke, the portions are large and prices are reasonable. A boat can give you a variety of salmon, chicken, beef, roll and sushi. ...serves 3 to 4 people for a great price. Beers are buy 1 and the next one 99 cents and we're talking large beers.

    The food is great here. Portions are huge and they definitely are not breeding with the sashimi, big pieces. Small place but the food is great and I definitely recommend this place. I come here often and I love it.

    The food was good but not delicious The service was okay ( kinda slow) but I like the way how they try to help the customer by telling them about the offers. The atmosphere wasn't great, definitely needs some remodeling

    Love this place!! First time here and will definitely be returning. 1. Their staff is super sweet. They greeted me with a smile and the kindest tone!! 2. Their menu has pictures !!! It also tells you whether the roll is fresh or baked. 😍 3. The food is delicious!!!

    This place had good service and all, but the miso soup was watery and the sushi was super packed with imitation crab (krab). So much so that the unagi avocado roll, which had salmon inside, was overpowered by the creamy crab mixture. I feel like in this case, less would be more (aka less krab, and the same amount of everything else). Either way, decent enough lunch and fair prices and very accessible parking.

    This is a nice place, clean, good service... but a little dated. My grandmother loved the cucumber avocado salad. My mom loved the steak salmon. It was all tasty and you can see the cooks cooking in the kitchen, thats always fun.

    Worst sushi place I ever been. All the fish on sushi smelled old and no flavor at all. Presentation looked good that's all. We also ordered mussels and the were already so bad my friend felt sick to his stomach. Please avoid this restaurant.

  • 4/5 Shawn G. 2 years ago on Google
    Decent quality and great value. Bento box are a good option. The rolls are too big to fit in your mouth in one bite. It gets very busy for lunch. The sashimi is cut as thin as possible. Having said that, you won't leave hungry. Parking lot gets full. Be sure to lock your car.

    Sushi was edible not very tasty. Jalapeño bombs were good. Volcano was good. They sent over 3 miso soups that was nice of them. Pretty massive California rolls, my son enjoyed. Quick delivery 👌
