Teru Japanese Cuisine

The Best Sushi in Santa Barbara, According to a Local Writer | Eater LA

"With a prime location next to the Arlington Theatre in Downtown Santa Barbara, Teru Sushi offers a compact menu of sushi, nigiri, and hot plates like spicy chicken karaage and hamachi kama. Every night, a variety of unique appetizers and mains of the freshest catches appear on the nightly specials chalkboard. Look for the seared toro, especially when finished with Santa Barbara uni. The Welcome Roll is another fan favorite, filled with yellowtail and topped with salmon and a basil truffle vinaigrette. Or, go bold with the chef’s special press box, a peek into the best flavors of the day, which changes regularly but might feature bluefin tuna, halibut tempura, or toro." - Meaghan Clark Tiernan
