"Amakara is a local favorite for sushi, having made an appearance on Check, Please! Bay Area for its inventive rolls. There are rolls unique to Amakara, such as the scallop paradise roll, which features tempura-battered scallops over rice, served with tobiko, mustard sauce, and spicy mayo. But there are also simpler sushi items, if nigiri and sashimi are more your speed, and donburi bowls if you’re looking for a heartier meal over rice." - Dianne de Guzman
