Azayaka Japanese Fusion

Absolutely best sushi around service is amazing. The owner was there to greet us and price is fair. Definitely our go to spot.

We had omakase, which was delightful. The service was great super attentive servers. The sushi chefs very busy and definitely had to ask the name of each dish. Not sure about some of the negative reviewers but it leads me to think they haven’t experienced omakase before. Coming from the Bay Area we have a pretty high standard when it comes to freshness and dinning experience, and Azayaka is a gem in Sacramento. Comparable prices and quality. Would surely return.

A cousins date- omakase reservation for 4 at the sushi bar for 5pm on a Friday night. It is either a 5pm or a 7pm reservation. 2 hours is plenty of time. Did not feel rushed. $123 per person before taxes and gratuity. The omakase reservations can be up to 10 people, as that is how many can fit at the sushi bar. There were 2 other tables when we walked in at 4:50pm. We situated ourselves and decided to purchase the 500 ml bottle of Kinushiro Nigori for $26 between 3 of us. It was a very nice bottle to share with our Omakase meal. It came with 3 cold appetizers- jelly fish, raw squid and octopus. The raw squid was SO GOOD! It was mixed in with kizami I think. Kizami is chopped wasabi, much tastier in my opinion. The raw squid is a crunchy chewy texture. I was a bit afraid at first but we all loved it. The chef was very nice and accommodating to my pregnant sister. He was able to swap out all the tuna to salmon for her. We were honestly at first glance of the restaurant and area, not very impressed or even having high expectations. We wanted to go to the Roseville location at first, but they didn’t not have Friday bookings, as it was all blocked out. As if they did not do Friday omakase reservations at all. We all left very impressed and amazed at the quality, presentation and service. Each fish and wagyu was very fresh, not fishy and prepared to perfection. Presentation was remarkable. Otoro, A5 Wagyu and uni (sea urchin) melted in all of our mouth. Our eyes all widened when in our mouth just staring at each other with astonishment. There is an option to lay an additional $20 for unlimited handrolls. Only one of us was able to do that, my cousin chose 3 more handrolls and all otoro. That itself is already well worth it! There is no sharing on the unlimited add on. The rest of us were too full to even want to share! While eating, we saw other items going out to tables, sushi and fried squid, they all looked very good, well prepared and presented!!! I would definitely bring other beloved friends and family to experience this again

Great sushi. Higher than average price but you get a much better quality for it. Gone twice once for omakase and again for a normal dinner. Both were amazing, great for anyone who wants sushi better than California roll plus topping.

This was my first time visiting. I recommend trying the tempura and pepper fins they were great it had a really nice presentation. I also tried the California roll, which tasted okay, though the rice had a weird color that threw me off a bit. Overall, the service was a positive experience

This was our first time dining here, and we had an overall positive experience. We ordered the jungle Party roll, the Fujisan, the fresh roll, a 12 pc Sashimi plate, and spicy edamame and miso for appetizers. The rolls are unique and all taste differently. Our favorite of the 3 was the Fujisan. Good lively atmosphere. I do feel like the service could be a little more personable and professional. The service felt slightly scrambly and rushed, but giving them grace because they’re new and they were busy. Would definitely go back though!

Came across this fancy classy sushi restaurant after shopping in Galleria Mall and Costco. Their uni and oyster is so fresh. They are definitely one of the best Japanese restaurant in roseville and rocklin area. Saw they have omakase in the menu, will DEFINITELY be back for it.

Pretty fresh sashimi! Loved the bentos for the price, it was a decent portion. Would come back again for more raw scallops / tuna belly.

A way overdue review. My wife and I come here a few times a month. always consistently good service and even more delicious food, at a great price point. Solid portions and more importantly, the quality of the ingredients and freshness is top tier. We always bring friends and family to Azayaka when they're in town. We recommend the agedashi, the veggie maki, the sassy, and any of their sets. The sets come with a variety of sides - a well rounded, balanced Japanese meal. We also went to the Roseville location once, but prefer the La Riviera location.

Did their omakase and thorougly enjoyed the experience ! Place was easy to Find lots of parking and vibe reminded me of eating at a place in Japan. Very hospitable staff and just walking in you had high hopes it was gonna be a Good Time. Food was very fresh and beautiful to look at the omakase had so many wonderful flavors to savor. Ill let the pictures i post do the talking of How Good everything was!

Stumbled upon this establishment on a whim, looking to see what sushi spot was around after a day at the mall. The sushi gods guided me to the most perfect sushi place I could have chosen. The place is quaint and cozy. The servers are nice and very attentive. One of my favorite parts of the place is they give you a water jug--and they are very proactive in making sure it's replaced--so you never run out of water. I've only had their sushi and warm starters. so I can't speak on the bigger warm plates, but you can honestly pick any sushi roll or appetizer and not go wrong. The fish is always so fresh and delicious. Their hand rolls are a great portion (my favorite is the salmon skin) and are pretty filling. One of the best sushi spots and a no-brainer whenever I want to settle a sushi craving. You won't be disappointed!

Friendly service and good food. Place was busy Fri night but we were seated after waiting 5 min for someone to acknowledge us. It's modern and with sushi chief working behind bar but NO fridge/freezer in sight. They work out of boxes and pull fish from back. The food is very well displayed and beautifully plated. Sake came with small side dishes. Loved the double toro roll. The Wagyu roll was complex and I liked it but my daughter didn't. My son had spicy ramen. Their steamed egg with crab, corn, mushrooms was delicious. Roasted eggplant was half an eggplant topped with salad and salmon roe, lucky we asked for sauce on the side because the mayo was thick. Price was reasonable for dinner for 4 $120 (with small sake). Definitely worth returning to. Only negative was it took awhile to get waiters attention because we were seated in far back - also right under cold AC vent.

One of my favorite Japanese restaurants in Sacramento. I highly recommend their kaisendon box sets (and add the corn chawanmushi). Presentation is beautiful, the sashimi quality is fresh, and the overall set price for quantity is so worth it. Not to mention, the service is bright and enthusiastic!

I had omakase here as well as regular dine in. I prefer ordering from the menu. One of the best sushi spots I've tried.

Outstanding fresh food. Every dish was delicious. Very nice presentation also. The service was very prompt and courteous as well.

I've been wanting to try a special omakase dinner for the longest time, and when I saw that Azayaka was serving it at a reasonable price, I was all over it. You can make a reservation through their webpage and save some dough since it is cheaper than a walk-in. Also, the walk-in is not guaranteed seating, so if you are set on omakase at a certain time, make sure to do the reservation. You have to make a 50% deposit to secure the reservation. It's a nice simple restaurant without a lot of fancy decor, which shows me they are all about the food. Once you tell them you have your reservation they will guide you to place settings at the bar. I posted a picture of their winter omakase menu. It had some amazing exotic dishes that I never thought I'd be trying. The first and foremost was the grilled shirako (google it). I've heard of it before, and I admit it didn't sound like something I wanted to eat, but I was gonna try everything and get the full experience. Lo and behold it was actually quite tasty and the texture was rich and creamy. It was mild and a little smokey flavored. A very unique experience indeed. The second exotic item I had was the monkfish liver. It also had a smokey flavor and a rich texture. I was glad I had a chance to experience it. The omakase included 8 pieces of nigiri, and they were all excellent and super fresh and of the highest quality. My favorites being the torched A5 wagyu with truffle on top and the torched otoro (fatty tuna) of course. Other highlights included a grilled lamb chop with kiwi jam. That was super fantastic and I can remember all the flavors distinctly. OMG the hand roll! It was just incredible, so fresh and tasty, it was the best hand roll I've ever had "hands down". I've never tried chazuki before and it was a really nice end to the meal. It had abalone that was not tough but chewy enough like abalone should be. The rice had some sear to it with smokey goodness. Dessert was a multi layer cake that was really light and delectable. The chef was really cool, friendly, and pleasant. He explained things and answered questions and it was a treat to see him create every tasty morsel. I had high expectations going in and boy was I satisfied and more. I'm looking forward to coming back for the spring menu and even coming to dine here for their regular menu. I was impressed and highly recommend it to everyone.

I had the Omakase menu. Very unique experience, majority of dishes are delicious. Honestly, majority of dishes, I didn't understand what I ate. I didn't care as everything tasted great and it was a fun experience. I just remembered the A5 Waygu, Abalone, Lamb, and there was caviar. You definitely are getting what you paid. Service was wonderful and very great. FYI - only half the Omakase price has a service fee. So remember to tip properly.

This was my first visit, and I'd recommend the tempura and pepper fins! the flavors were great, and the presentation for the pepper fins were nice. I also tried the California roll; it was okay, the rice had a strange color that was a little off-putting. That said, the service was friendly and made for a positive overall experience.

I'm really impressed with everything here, we order some appetizers and rolls but the one that I loved most was the tuna with chips. We came in during busy hours but the service was absolutely great. The ambiance was ok. Really want to come back and try my tuna with chip!

Food was fantastic. Came here on a Sunday afternoon and was really blown away with how good the food was and the atmosphere was great. We did got their version of a Bento box, Teishoku. I got the beef teriyaki and my wife got the pork Katsu. Wonderful! A lot of food so come hungry. We will be back but go to the new location in Roseville.

I visited during lunch for a quick bite, and the service was top-notch--very attentive. The roll I had was tasty, but not amazing. I'm still on the hunt for my perfect roll here. I've heard they've introduced a new omakase menu, so I'm definitely looking forward to coming back and giving that a try!

Amazing quality sashimi and rolls loved the little chili crisps on the squid. Need to try their omakase one of these days.

Absolutely 5 stars! What a great Japanese Restaurant. Loved the smiling and friendly greeting from several of the staff, immediately seated although they were getting ready to close. My Spider Roll was fantastic, big and crunchy. Hubby loved his salmon bento box. The beer selection is fantastic and even the few wines they had on the menu were OK too. I can't wait to go back here again. Hint... they are opening a new place in Roseville, very close to my house. Yippee!

Best Japanese food that I've had in ages! And I eat Japanese restaurant food frequently, more than 2X / month. This brightly lighted, clean, welcoming place looks like any other small strip mall mom & pop humble eatery. Looks can occasionally be deceiving. Okay I was primed by the excellent Yelp aggregate score and the many, many enthusiastic reviews. I actually drove 15 miles outt'a my planned route towards home to eat here. And I'm so glad that I did! Ordered the $20 salmon teriyaki bento box combo meal. Astounding was the variety, portions sizes and deliciousness of the other 5 items on the platter. Two BIG slabs of salmon. The salad was fresh picked from the garden delicious. Even the requisite bowl of white rice was perfectly cooked. At the end of the meal I told the server that I live in Roseville. She beams a beautiful smile and says "We are opening restaurant in Roseville close to the Costco by the end of the year". I nearly exploded with joy. Guess who is going to be their favorite customer?

Don't sleep on Azayaka Japanese Fusion! Had lunch here with the husband and we were both extremely satisfied with our meals. We ordered the chu toro carpaccio, house ramen, chicken katsu, fire dragon roll and double toro roll. The fish was fresh, the katsu was banging and the ramen hit the spot. I wished the toro was a little more fatty and my husband was hoping the ramen would be spicer, but both were still good. Come for lunch, which was when we came, to get their lunch special. A specialized lunch menu that includes 2 appetizers (smaller portion than regular), a main dish or roll, and a drink. The service was great so we will definitely be back. They do offer omakase that requires advanced reservations, so hopefully we'll get to try this out soon.

I very much enjoyed what I ordered. I had an order of the Otoro nigiri, salmon toro nigiri, and I asked for the wagyu truffle nigiri. I also got hamachi Kama and they gave me a big portion. The fatty pieces of meat were so buttery and tender. I loved the chili crisp on top of the salmon. The truffle drizzled on top of the beef was what I was craving. Hamachi Kama was soft and flakey and delicate. Love the fatty parts and the skin. Grilled nicely. Service was very friendly and welcoming. BD liked his teriyaki chicken but he doesn't like seafood, seaweed, or creamy sauces. His bento box came with a croquette which had bonito flakes on top. And his spring roll had a creamy sauce on top. So keep this in mind if you're a picky eater. Friend seemed to enjoy her two rolls, her steak, and the udon. Food didn't come out completely at the same time, she did have to wait a bit for her steak but at least she had her rolls. Restaurant smelled strongly of fish when we walked in though. We did get used to it. I have friends and family that don't like a strong fishy smell anywhere so it would've been a no for them from the start but thankfully not there with us that day. Sacramento has lots of sushi options and I've had this bookmarked for a while so glad I can cross it off the list.

Their fish and all the other ingredients were super fresh. I was also impressed that their miso soup had real clam in it! They do offer an omakase menu that you can make reservation ahead of time. This time we were just ordering off their regular dinner menu, but would love to go back for the omakase sometime! We tried their Double Toro roll, the Fire Dragon and the Jungle party roll. They were all delicious! Would definitely recommend the Double Toro and the Fire Dragon.

My friend and I have been wanting to try Azayaka for a while and decided to go for lunch...did not disappoint. Everything was super fresh and the plates were presented beautifully. I ordered from the lunch special, the rainbow roll was great and portions were pretty good. My friend ordered the Bara Chirashi Don and loved it. Other dishes to consider: Mixed tempura and agedashi tofu- both perfectly fried and not greasy at all. Chawanmushi- warm and silky, very satisfying to eat. Can't wait to return :)

We absolutely love this place! Every time we come, the sushi is fresh, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The chefs clearly take pride in their work, and it shows in every roll. The staff is always so welcoming and attentive, which makes the whole dining experience even better. It's hard to pick favorites because everything we've tried has been amazing, but the specialty rolls are a must. This has become our go-to sushi spot, and we look forward to every visit! You must try the truffle hamachi and A5 Wagyu Tataki

Excellent, fresh sushi with very responsive servers. The miso soup and hot tea were very good. The yellowtail, scallops, and albacore were incredibly delicious and seasoned perfectly. The golden California roll was fantabulous in flavor as well.

Came here with my family for the first time on Saturday at noon. The restaurant was not busy yet and there was plenty of parking! We ordered a variety of food items, some not pictured. The fish tasted fresh, but there were some hit and misses. I would SKIP the spicy scallop hand roll, it tasted like sheer sriracha and nothing else unfortunately. For those who do not like sashimi, there are bento sets. Bento sets came with LOTS of food and appetizers. Our favorite items were the nigiri set and the double toro roll! The fire dragon roll and double salmon were good, but I am not sure we would order it again. Ramen was good as well, my parents enjoyed the red and white ramen. Large portion of ramen to fill up an adult! Servers were efficient and kind; the restaurant was also very clean. Overall, the quality of food was great for the price-- I think we just need to order different items next time.

Lovely aesthetic and even tastier dishes! We got their 18pc special and holiday 3part box, which was filling for 3 people. Highlights included the scallops, wagyu, and otoro.

This is my second visit to this Japanese restaurant and I really think this is the best sushi restaurant in the Sacramento area. Lobster Misoyaki (5/5): This was a part of their special menu and it was two half lobster tails topped with miso butter paste. I thought the paste flourished well with the lobster Hotate nigiri (4/5): the scallop was very plump, but tasted a weird fishiness. Umi Masu (5/5) this trout nigiri was topped with Truffle mushroom. It was tasted like a salmon by with more flavor. The truffle was strand addition though. Kamasu nigiri (5/5): this barracuda nigiri was very fresh. Mixed tempura (5/5): came with 3 pieces of shrimp, string bean, pumpkin, yam, onion. It was super crispy and hot. Perfect appetizer. Although the tempura felt a bit heavy. A5 Wagyu tataki (5/5): comes with five fatty pieces that just melts in your mouth. Azakaya Sashimi box (5/5); If you love sushi like me, I think this is the best bang for your buck. It comes 9 types of sashimi with 2 pieces each. In mine, I got salmon, salmon toro, hamachi, scallop, squid, tuna, and others. I thought it was super fresh and provides a good balance of things to try. Definitely my favorite restaurant in Sacramento

I went here for date night and loved it! It was busy, but the service was still fast. They also had a deal on hot sake that we saw on Instagram that was perfect for a rainy night. My partner is not a big sushi fan, so he loved the option of getting a chicken katsu set. The portions for the sets were great, and I really enjoyed the Fire Dragon Roll I got. It was not too spicy and had a bunch of toppings. Our server was very kind, and I enjoyed getting to see the chefs creating the food with the clear glass in between. I cannot wait to try the cocktails next time and hopefully try their omakase in the future!

I was visiting from LA for the holidays and this place was recommended to me for their Chirashi Bowl and I wish I could've rate it and my experience higher. Food: 2/10. I got the Chirashi Bowl combo and all of the appetizers were amazing! The Chirashi Bowl looked just as amazing! Unfortunately, as I got to the Chirashi Bowl itself to eat.. I picked up my first piece of fish and found a piece of hair. At first, I thought it could have been my own hair, but I have black hair and the hair found looked red. I have worked in the food service industry and have around 8 years of experience, so I completely understand that it happens. Though, when the waitress sent my bowl back, I overheard the sushi chef stating that what I found looked like part of the brush hair he uses and it shouldn't be an issue to eat. The waitress then said to him, "It's better to be safe than sorry." Again, I understand that wasting food sucks, especially with high-quality raw fish, but it's better to be clean and hygienic. The chef instantly remade my bowl and I was so excited. The bowl started off and looked absolutely amazing and beautiful, but I noticed that the cuts weren't as good. I noticed lots of salmon skin that looks like it should have been cut off. Again, I thought that maybe it was a one time thing in my bowl but no, there were multiple cuts of salmon skin that was hard and I couldn't even eat it because it was hard and inedible. Example: I would eat a fish, but would bite into it and it would be so rough/hard, I would have to spit it out to the side because it was inedible. I love sushi/sashimi and have dined at many establishments, but I have never been to a restaurant that kept on the salmon skin. While communicating to friends about the incident via text, they assured me that it was not a normal instance. Towards the end of the bowl, the fish started to taste sour to the taste as well. I assumed that my negative thoughts were getting to my head as the experience has started to go downhill, but my boyfriend got the same exact bowl and had absolutely no issue (no salmon skin nor hard fish or sour fish). He then tried my fish after finishing his whole bowl and also agreed that mine tasted sour/funky compared to his and urged me to not finish the bowl for safety purposes. Already finding a hair, I did not want to make another complaint and be a difficult customer and cause any more issues/inconveniences for the restaurant, so I simply just did not finish my bowl. Overall, I was not even disappointed at the hair being found, but felt very very disappointed at the quality of the bowl. I was so upset and felt sick to my stomach all night. Service: 10/10. The one star is for the awesome service we experienced. The waitresses helping me and my boyfriend out were so incredibly kind and so attentive to all of our needs. When the waitress saw the hair on the fish, she seemed very empathetic and validated what I saw. The waitress was the one to apologize to me for the incident and to tell the sushi chef to remake my bowl. Another waitress helped us out when paying and she also apologized for the incident and gave us a 10% discount for "what transpired." It was a nice gesture because we were not expecting anything from the staff. Ambiance: Cute indoor seating along with it being spacious and clean. I went to the restroom to wash my hands and it was pretty clean in there as well. Overall, I am hopeful that I personally just dined on an off night. I do still wish success for this restaurant, but hope that this instance does not happen to another customer.

Enjoyed Teishoku sets so filling always go back for more add a side of mix tempura or geso have some nice cold beverages with a few friends Cheers! I noticed now beef teriyaki on the teishoku set

Hiro, Edison!!! You guys are awesome!! TYSM! The impromptu omakase was out of this world!! I know, it's sacrilegious to doggy bag omakase but I proudly took a bite of the last 2 items before packing them up to enjoy later! Had to save room for dessert! Loved everything!! Wagyu, barracuda, uni, ankimo, toro, oyster, lamp chop, and all the nigiri I can't even recall the names of, marvelous, fresh and flavorful! I got nervous when I saw the tako bc that's one of the things I don't prefer sashimi, I take my octo and squid calamari style. But it was to my liking and perfect with the daikon and delicious sauce! Helped that it was boiled. Thank goodness. So ya, I repeat, everything was scrumptious! Wouldn't change a thing! Just 4 months in, you guys are doing great! See ya again soon for the next round, next season! ;) *Sorry, for the late review. Glad y'all made it past your 1 year anniversary! Congrats! #timeflies

Azayaka Japanese Fusion is a sushi restaurant by South Sacramento. We went there last week on my mom's birthday because my brother chose for her. We had different kinds of sushi rolls and 2 trays of sashimi. The Azayaka has lobster tempura and crab salad inside. I tried the salted sea snail and the tempura fried squid. Azayaka is a Japanese word.

One of my favorite sushi spots in Sacramento. I really like ordering the kaisen don and upgrading it to a combo. The service is also always excellent. I would definitely return again. The sashimi is consistently fresh and I have yet to be disappointed by the quality of their food. The seating is also spacious and clean. However do not upgrade if you are ordering to go as they will not give you the steamed egg or the soba noodles.

I would come back and try the sushi but I got the chicken katsu teishoku set and I unfortunately did not like. The chicken katsu was not crispy despite looking like it would be. I didn't like the sauce on the eggrolls or on the salad. Eggroll to me seemed a little slimy. I wasn't expecting clams in my miso. I really wanted to love this place but it just wasn't for me, at least not the set. However the price was phenomenal. The set came with so much food for only $18. I don't like clams so i switched the clam custard with an extra egg roll which they had no problem doing which was nice. Service was good but nothing special. It wasn't too busy which was nice and we didn't feel rushed.

This was my first time at Azayaka. It was a fun experience. Service was great. We sat at the sushi bar. Cocktails were excellent and they gave us some additional snacks with them which were really tasty. While the omakase was a great experience and there was a lot to try, I would just do the special nigiri the next time I go back. That was by far the best part. It was so good.

Great little find off of watt ave, we've been here twice. Both times ordered their sets and it's been solid. Great customer service and good food!

Well I stopped by for lunch and the lunch special was soo delicious always fresh sushi and appitizers. Jackie the service waitress was polite and friendly helping me chose my entry . The seaweed salad was amazing. I highly recommend this place if you crave a good meal or nice atmosphere for dinner date . The dining area is beautiful and very clean. They do take out as well . Try this place if you get a chance

Our 4th time eating dinner here was last night. The food is always exquisite! The fish is fresh, the options are numerous & tasty! Azakaya reminds me of Kru, without Kru's variety. Prices are extremely reasonable! Service could not be better! And the food is phenomenal!! This small Japanese restaurant is hidden in a strip mall on La Riviera Drive next to Watt Avenue. CHECK THEM OUT! You won't be disappointed!!

I haven't had sushi in a while but was in a rush to get back to work. I decided to deviate from my normal go-to sushi spots in the area and wanted to try something new. I placed an order and arrived roughly 15 minutes later and was immediately greeted and the food already prepared. The place wasn't busy when I arrived. It was spacious and clean. I ordered the Fire Dragon. Absolutely loved it! Fairly spicy but also had a touch of sweetness that I thoroughly enjoyed. I regret not having ordered an additional roll. I think I've another place of favorite sushi spot to drop by in the future!

Have to change my ratings. I think I just ordered the wrong stuff last time. This time, I just ordered from their special menu and everything was fantastic! All the fish were fresh and super unique. We got seated fairly quickly for 2 for a Friday night so that was a score. If you're a huge sushi fanatic, just go with the special menu and add the chutoro from the regular menu. Had 12 pieces since nigiri comes with 2 pieces each. Yuzu cocktail was amazinggggg. Strong and yummy. Definitely coming back soon!

I love this place, first time was great, second time was even better! The fish was really great and you can see that it's top quality. Very fresh and the presentation was on point. The service was good and the restaurant was super clean.

If you're in the Watt area and craving something unique, this Japanese-Chinese fusion sushi spot tucked off La Riviera Drive is a hidden gem. It's seriously underrated, offering a large menu with plenty of variety at a reasonable price. Quality fish, and there are fun, delicious new side dishes that I've never had before but were a pleasant surprise. Whether you're stopping by for a quick bite or a relaxed meal, it's definitely a go-to spot!

It was my first time trying this place, and it was delicious! The lunch meals and deals are definitely worth it. My order came with a sushi roll, my choice of appetizer, and a drink--all for a great price. My sister and brother-in-law ordered some of the yummiest rolls I've ever tried. The bento box was also well worth it. We'll definitely be back!

Solid Japanese spot that I visited yesterday with a friend. What we got: toro ikura toast (5/5) -- a bit heavy on the butter which may have overshadowed the truffle but good melding of flavors and textures between the ikura/toro, greens, and toast madai nigiri (5/5) -- very well-seasoned rice, good for if you like firm flesh fish, although I saw it I didn't get much flavor of the yuzu salt chawanmushi (5/5) -- strong umami flavor from dashi and fun textural play between snow crab shreds and the silky custard sunshine roll (4/5) -- a very healthy amount of sauce that I felt overpowered the rest of the textures in the roll, but otherwise the ingredients were fresh and paired well together Azayaka roll (5/5) -- good flavor and beautiful presentation, but the lotus chips were too large to really eat with a piece in one bite Waitress we had was super attentive and answered all of our questions with regards to the menu. I would return to try more nigiri and rolls.

The  restaurant was a decent spot, especially for the neighborhood, but it didn't quite meet my expectations in terms of sushi quality and portion size. It's always a bit disappointing when a place doesn't deliver that "wow" factor, especially when you've had really exceptional sushi before. My 3-star rating is fair given that it was a solid experience, but not outstanding. Hopefully, your next sushi adventure will be more impressive! Servers were nice, we had good service and the restaurant was clean and nice.

The omakase was such a good experience, it gives you an opportunity to try a variety of dishes you may not normally have. The wagyu with truffles was by far my favorite.

Ate here for a quick date night and quite enjoyed it. We got two rolls, the una-ten and the sassy roll. Both of them were yummy and we felt they were worth the price. With the two rolls and drinks we got out of there for under $50 which felt pretty reasonable for dinner. The service here is good, and the food came out relatively quick and there weren't any issues there! I would recommend checking it out if you're in the area and looking for sushi!

Great service! Came here to try the "double toro" roll and it did not disappoint! We also ordered the "fire dragon" and "jungle bird" roll. We both liked the jungle bird more than the fire dragon roll. Would definitely return to try their omakase but may pass on the fire dragon roll. The atmosphere was also nice. It was casual & welcoming. We liked this place but probably wouldn't drive out of the way to come back often only if we were craving one of their rolls.

Probably the best sushi you'll get for this price point in the area! They have decent service and plenty of tables to accommodate larger parties or to seat many parties. We ordered the sashimi 18 pc, double toro roll, hamachi kama, and lychee cocktail. The 18 pc was worth it as you get some fish that you generally wouldn't get at other restaurants, and the double toro had some caviar on top which was a very nice surprise. The fish were fatty and fresh! The hamachi kama was great, it felt like it was never ending when we dug for more and more meat, and it was lightly seasoned which was nice.

Came with a friend. Very very friendly and exceptional service. Great food for the price! It's a bit outside the university but worth the trip! Will definitely be back when I'm back in town. We went very early so it was empty, but as we stayed the restaurant got busy. It's very roomy inside and has ample seating.

The food here is amazing! I got the salmon teriyaki and it's my most favorite in all of sacramento! The best part about this restaurant is the service!! Hanh was my server for the two times I have been here and she is AMAZING!! Highly recommend this place! Will come here again!
