Ju Hachi

1st time trying Ju Hachi On New Years, and here's my Sacramento Downtown reality check. Ju Hachi is a spot where fresh shipments of fish come first, and you can Taste it immediately. Clean cuts, fresh, succulent and juicy - the Chefs choice sashimi of the day was ocean trout + hamachi + salmon. For the fitness folks that need high protein macro friendly eats, Ju Hachi is your spot. For service pacing, the holidays are times we're most businesses are understaffed and patience is truly needed with compassion to understand the service here stands out because they are focused on making sure we have a quality meal despite high volume customers in a small packed place. Ambiance, the aesthetics makes the place great for family , business meetings, or even bonding time for folks that want to escape work chaos. The music playing was the 90's and 2000s RNB so - best believe it was a vibe. Tip : sit at sushi bar if you can, order with intention, and build in a little grace and compassion because good food takes time, and so do the folks that make this place possible.

I’ve been coming to Ju Hachi for years, and it never fails to impress. The fish is always fresh and top quality. My favorite spot is the bar when Sang is behind it. He’s not only attentive but also friendly and entertaining, making every visit feel special. Connor and Alan are fantastic as well, and the three of them together create such fun banter that the meal is both delicious and entertaining. Ju Hachi is always our go-to when we’re craving sushi, and I can’t recommend the chirashi enough!

$46 for their Chef’s special 10 piece Nigiri. Absolutely DISGUSTING and we didn’t even finish it. Expected more out of this for $46 each tray, but they served the most basic of food here yet they want to overcharge as if they’re great. This is buffet quality food. Service was horrible. Sat us on a dirty table. Forgot our waters. And when we did get it, the cups were dirty at the rim. Forgot our plates and utensils. Barely checked on us.

As a vegetarian visiting Ju Hachi in Sacramento late at night around 9:30, the experience was just okay. Unfortunately, there weren't many options for vegetarians, which limited our choices. The vegetable udon was disappointing, it had a weird taste, the quantity was good though--honestly, we wish we hadn't ordered it. On the bright side, the green roll was a pleasant surprise! Even though we are not seaweed lovers, we really enjoyed it. The vegetable tempura roll was good as well, but the green roll was definitely the standout dish. The service was average. I initially received ice-filled water and requested room-temperature water instead, but it took a very long time to arrive. Overall, it was not the best dining experience. The vibes of the restaurant were just okay, nothing special. While some people at the bar seemed to enjoy drinks with the sushi preparer. If you're vegetarian, definitely skip the udon if you decide to go.

I recently visited this sushi restaurant with a friend, hoping to be impressed by the rave reviews. Unfortunately, our experience fell short. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, recommending the Chubby Andy Roll. While the presentation was appealing, the flavors were underwhelming. The sauce had an unusual taste that my friend didn't enjoy. I asked to exchange it for another option, but the waitress recommended trying another bite. Sadly, I was still disappointed. I opted for the Shrimp Tempura as a replacement, but unfortunately, it lacked flavor and creativity. The sauces accompanying both rolls were mediocre at best. While the food didn't impress, the restaurant's atmosphere was pleasant. The venue was clean and aesthetically pleasing, with a great music selection. The dumplings were a highlight, and I would recommend them. Overall, I'm unsure if I would return, but I appreciate the friendly service and welcoming atmosphere.

Ju hachi is definitely under-rated! The quality of the fish is excellent, and their ramen is respectable. I believe the head sushi chef came from the original Kru, so you get the quality without the expensive price tag. The owner is a chill dude & comes out and chats every now and then. Top 4 for me personally in the sacramento area. * Don't leave without trying -Vanessa madness roll -Sashimi platter -Lomi shoyu Ramen -Tempura fried cheesecake - Hamachi Kama

Charming local sushi spot in an old fashioned, beautiful Sacramento house. The interior was cute and welcoming. Vegetarian options were really great for sushi - the veggie tempura rolls and avocado rolls were awesome! Way better than the vegetarian after thoughts you would find at a different sushi place. And the tempura cheesecake was amazing - felt really unique! Fantastic, super nice service! Thank you!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sat at the bar and Sang was a legend – funny, skilled, and the specialty rolls were fire. If you want quality sushi and a good time, grab a seat at the bar. Highly recommend.

Been wanting to try this place for a while and it didn't disappoint! Asked the sushi chef Conner for some recommendations and he gave us some bangers! Loved the spicy Maria and the tan tan ramen. Fair warning, it's a solid medium spice, which was perfect for me but a little too spicy for my fiancé lol Food: 4.5 Service: 5 Ambiance: 4 Marcels foodie score: 4.5

10/5/25 My little man's wanted some sushi for his bday week so we ended up at Ju Hachi for dinner. We ordered almost everything but the kitchen sink to try and items a solid spot. Ambiance is ok, staff was friendly. Street parking available and wasn't difficult for us. Carpaccio was delish and table fave. Soft shell crab was a tad fishy scent :( Agadashi Tofu and spicy edamame were as expected. Rolls were good. We ordered suggested rolls from staff :)

The Capitol Roll has made its way to my top special rolls from restaurants. I tried Ju Hachi for the first time, on a whim after working an event across the street and ordered this right before they closed. I can't say too much about the service and ambiance of this place, because I quickly got this roll to-go, but this roll was phenomenal. Besides the Capitol Roll, I also got to try pieces of the salmon maki, and it was delicious. I'll definitely be back during the day and dine-in the next time I visit!

This is still our go-to sushi spot. We ordered the veggie sushi, beef dish, and stuffed mushrooms. Everything is served exactly how we like it and it's so filling and delicious. The staff is very nice and came to check on us and provide refills on water. We've never had a bad meal here and I often leave the restaurant and think about the meal I had several days later. I love this place!

A bit disappointed with the sushi here. Don't get me wrong, the spot is cozy and the service very friendly, I just didn't particularly like the rolls we ordered. These were some of their "most popular" rolls also so that makes me feel like maybe I wouldn't like any of their rolls moving forward. We ordered the Orange roll and the Hot Mama roll. Due to just overall taste, what felt like spoiled or borderline spoiled avocado, I don't think we will be returning. That being said, the service is friendly and efficient and the space itself quite cute.

I'm picky about sushi restaurants because the freshness and quality of the fish can be such a hit or miss. This was a hit! The sushi rolls were generous, and yummy. They have an extensive menu that you can order from. The spicy edamame is great choice for sharing. The service was awesome. Very relaxed and chill environment. Would recommend!

Ju Hachi is a solid spot for dine in or take out sushi. It's a very cute building and the seating inside is great for small groups or date nights. Street parking is available for this spot, but depending on the time of day you may have to walk a little bit. Make sure you check to see if you're in a metered spot or a free spot. I typically order take out and I prefer to call or order in person than use their online ordering. They do a nice job of packaging the sushi to-go and I'm typically able to get it home in one piece so it still looks nice for some photos. They offer a variety of simple rolls and specialty rolls. Some of them can be on the pricier side, but they also offer some fun flavor combinations. I like to order a mix of simple options and fun rolls and try something new each visit. Definitely check out their specials, and if you're dining with other people sharing is a great way to try more items.

We came to Ju Hachi to treat my mother-in-law to sushi! She was super in love with the rolls and selection here. When we walked in the staff all said hi and you could see the chefs behind the counter and in the kitchen. We were seated in a booth and the menu was in the QR code so we started scrolling and talking picks. We ordered so much... green tea and Asahi beer, miso soups, spicy edamame, yellow roll, caterpillar roll, ahi ahi roll, rainbow roll, and a couple others that I can't find anymore, but all were so good and true to the menu description. We had a mishap and were served a green roll instead of yellow roll, but they quickly resolved and didn't charge for the mistake. We really like it here, the staff, the food, and location is all around great! Thanks for making my mother-in-law's visit so nice!

Only been here once but I am ready to go back! Came here for dinner with my friend and it was a great experience. We sat outside since it was a bit busy inside, but the staff were so nice and welcoming that we didn't feel at all like the service was impacted by the amount of people. They have a great menu full of different options and a lot of drinks! The waitress was super nice in recommending different drinks and offered us a sample when we went sure what to order. If the weather is nice and you're craving sushi come here and sit outside! Perfect for date night or girls night!

Found this little spot on yelp when craving sushi one late evening. Their rolls were delicious! I've now gone there a few times and first time the customer service was excellent! Second time it was okay, we got everything we wanted but the waitress wasn't smiling and really checking on us. However, I will still visit this location.

Ju Hachi has a special place in my heart. My best friend, who now lives overseas, was the one who introduced me to this little gem, it was his go-to spot. Now, whenever I'm craving sushi, this is where I come. Parking can be a bit tricky during busy hours, so I usually just park at Ice Blocks and pay. It's a short walk, and I honestly don't mind it. One of the sushi chefs, Tsang, is always such a joy! Friendly, full of life, and genuinely wholesome. If you're lucky enough to sit at his counter, expect plenty of laughs and good vibes. The host/server was also incredibly sweet :). I came in on a Thursday, and it was peaceful at first, but it did get busier as time went on. I started with the lamb lollipop, A5 Wagyu Nigiri, Amaebi Nigiri, salmon sashimi, and pepper fin. I usually avoid ordering too many rolls since I tend to not finish them, so I stick to nigiri--and everything was amazing. I also got to try I believe it was fried salmon skin with a cilantro/fish sauce aioli? It looks like a chip! I should've ordered that too but I had to refrain. My sister tried the A5 Wagyu for the first time and looked at me wide-eyed, saying, "It melted like buttah." Lol. Needless to say, I ended up ordering a few more Nigiri's after that.

Stop in for dinner this weekend with a few friends and was very happy with the food here. The star of it all was the spicy edamame, it was so flavor full and it has like crunchy chili oil on it. Never has something like that so we ordered two of them. The fish we all got with our rolls were great and didn't have any complaints. Service was okay, we waiting for awhile to order and took while to get our check to go cause we could find our waiter but that okay! Your typical sushi restaurant vibes inside but that did have a great house music playlist that we all loved :) Definitely a place for smaller parties since it is not that big inside. Sushi bar looks fun to sit at so next time we will check it out more.

Often visit sacramento to see family and had yet to find a go-to for some sushi rolls. Ju Hachi has saved me! I got the Vanessa madness roll and the capitol roll which were both amazing. Even more amazing was how kind and attentive our server, Tamia, was. She made sure we had everything we ordered and made sure to check-in. Overall, she made our experience great! I'll definitely come back the next time I'm in the area.

My wife and I were lucky to have a sushi artist make us his specialty rolls! It was his last day before starting a new career, so we took advantage of his skills! His imagination made flavors come together that our taste buds couldn't even comprehend. The complexity mixed with simplicity took the sushi game to a new level. The cozy interior made us feel that we're the only ones at the restaurant. Chef's choice for the rolls was a must have!

As a vegetarian visiting Ju Hachi in Sacramento late at night around 9:30, the experience was just okay. Unfortunately, there weren't many options for vegetarians, which limited our choices. The vegetable udon was disappointing, it had a weird taste, the quantity was good though--honestly, we wish we hadn't ordered it. On the bright side, the green roll was a pleasant surprise! Even though we are not seaweed lovers, we really enjoyed it. The vegetable tempura roll was good as well, but the green roll was definitely the standout dish. The service was average. I initially received ice-filled water and requested room-temperature water instead, but it took a very long time to arrive. Overall, it was not the best dining experience. The vibes of the restaurant were just okay, nothing special. While some people at the bar seemed to enjoy drinks with the sushi preparer. If you're vegetarian, definitely skip the udon if you decide to go.

I fear I have become a regular. I absolutely love the homey feel to this sushi restaurant very intimate. The food is so fresh.

This is my to go to restaurant. I'm always satisfied always something new. The best people work here, talkative, respectful, and clean

Stopped by here on a fluke.. It's a really cute Japanese based restaurant. It has a real nice ambiance inside, when you walk in. The food was amazing $ the staff here are friendly & very attentive. The waitress we had was really nice. We decided to sit at the bar and even the sushi chefs (Sang, Allen & Conner) were just as friendly, helpful & suggested on recommendations. Definitely will be coming back for more food &

We usually come a bit early to avoid larger crowds and to get fresher rolls. Always seated right away and super friendly sushi chef at bar and waitress' getting our dinner going. We like coming here cause tables are clean upon sitting and we can actually hear one another talk. The lobster hand roll, tako nigiri, and Shelly roll are my faves. The hubs likes the ziggy roll.

Sang and gang were fun and playful. Food was fresh and well crafted. Cozy vibes were the cherry on top.

The food here was pretty decent. I saw a picture of a really tasty looking little thing that had Ikura, Uni, and Toro in a spoon and asked for one of those and it was good! They ran out of Toro but they had hamachi belly and they asked if I was ok with replacing it, which I was cool with. Apparently there's no name for it, so just show them the pic and say you want one of those haha. The nigiri I got were decent. I liked the Ikura the most. The California roll was also solid and had a generous portion. Oh and they have plum wine!

Love it here! The service was friendly and quick. Tables were clean. We really really liked the garlic shishito peppers, highly recommend. We also got some ramen and a chicken udon dish. Not as spicy as listed but still flavorful. would come back

I went into Juhachi yesterday for an early dinner & my server, Tamia was amazing! She seemed to be the only server there at the time and she had quite a few tables but she still gave the best service! I will definitely be coming back.

Sooooo... we had 1.) Sesame Chicken ...1/2 was so overcooked/fried that it was hard, dry, and would shred in my teeth. 2.) Agedashi Tofu that was the firmest tofu I have ever eaten. The dashi to dip it in was brown colored water. 3.) Hamachi Tempura Roll has "betabeta gohan" (Japanese for mushy rice cooked with too much water). Proper sushi rice is rather important for a SUSHI RESTAURANT. When you add this to the avocado and paper thin hamachi, it leaves the small shrimp tempura to carry the whole roll, which it doesn't. 4.) For $14.00 you get 6 pieces of mixed tempura. DON'T LOOK AT THE WEBSITE'S PICTURES or you'll be miss led. Is an 1/8" × 3" piece of carrot worth $2.35. I'd give this dish 4* for flavor, but not value. The waitress was attentive and restaurant is casual.

disappointed with the service here. I ordered a meal on 11/17 and returned an item for a refund because I didn't like it. I was told that a manager would contact me. He never did. I return after a couple of days due to not receiving the refund. They put me on the phone with the manager, who admitted he had forgotten to initiate the refund but said he would do it once we're off the call. It is now 11/26 and I still haven't received anything. They provided poor customer service, attitude, over priced food, lack of communication, and follow through. I will not be returning.

Not my first time here. This was my sushi go to when i lived in Sacramento. Haven't been back for a few years. Its extremely disappointing to see the fall down cause I used to love this place. I gotta say the food now is only OK and service is the worst I've ever seen. I was disappointed to see 3 servers and 2 busers on the floor but extremely slow service and had no attention to table service. We sat down without anyone telling us where the menus were. Customers next to us even asked us if we knew. I believe the host came back after 10 mins then told us where to order. Waited about 30 mins or so to wait for the waiter to order. Then when the food came out we had to wait for plates and utensils. When she returned it was sad to see wooden chopsticks ... Everyone else had a regular chopsticks so some consistency would be nice. The sushi chefs were sweet and entertaining. Interior is still nice and clean. Service just needs improvement. I'm extremely reluctant to return and try again. But maybe. My partner believes it's just a Friday night service.

Good vibe, good food. It's a lovely corner to enjoy Japanese food in midtown Sacramento.

I used to live near here years ago and went all the time because it was so good. I happened to be back in town last week and was so excited to go back, boy has it gone downhill.. the food was not good, my friend returned her chicken it was so dry and burnt, and the waitress we had was short with us and so rude! They used to be so friendly, it's a real shame.

music was sooo good and the spicy edamame was to die for. The sushi was also so filling and delicious!! Will definitely be returning soon!

I have been coming to Ju Hachi for years and it never disappoints! The fish is reliably fresh and great quality. My favorite is to sit at the bar when Sang is working. He always takes great care of us and is so friendly and entertaining. He absolutely makes the whole experience one of a kind. Connor and Alan are also wonderful and they all play off one another's banter making for a tasty and hilarious meal. We will continue to choose Ju Hachi whenever we are craving sushi. I highly recommend the chirashi!

I highly recommend trying the spicy maria roll here. The sushi is good quality and the service was quick and friendly. This seems like a place with a lot of regulars. I would come back again and try other rolls and dishes, this place is a bit expensive though like $20 sushi rolls.

Ambiance It is midtown, small and charming. Cool vibe. Service Sam was great, she made a few suggestions, tried a new beer. She was very sweet. Dishes The rice had perfect texture and taste, fish fresh on rolls. The rolls cut with precision. Vanessa Madness Roll Was mentioned it was named after the owner's wife. Think this is a seasonal roll. This is the winner. Still thinking about it. Capitol Roll It was very good. Ju Hachi Tan Tan Ramen, spicy lots of flavor. Koshihikari Echigo beer, it was served cold. Will be back. Suppose to get gift for Yelp checkin, still waiting.

My friends and I had a wonderful time at this restaurant. The food was incredible. The prices were reasonable and justified, the bottle of wine as well as the entire experience was really lovely. I always appreciate when you can tell that there is love and effort put into cooking and that is what you can see at this restaurant. The service was beyond what we could've asked for please thank or ask for the service Samantha who is just so lovely her customer service skills are Absolutely through the roof. She made our experience so wonderful. My friends and I had such a lovely time. The ambience was gorgeous and it's such a great place to take family friends Parents work business meetings. I cannot recommend this restaurant on the corner of a beautiful scenery street I think that this is a place to not miss in Sacramento.

What a gem! Great food. Loved the specials. The ambience is hip and youthful. Not stuffy or overly serious. The servers were energetic and friendly- always checking in and looking after us. The selection of food and udon was tremendous. I had the Tonkotsu as a main course and salmon skin rolls to start. Both were delicious. My partner had an assortment of rolls and finished all of them. No to-go boxes here! We just moved to the area and live 3 blocks away so we will be back and often. Try it and you'll see how good it is!

I received a gift card to this place so thought we'd try it out, parking was rough but that's typical for downtown. We were seated right away as there were only 2 other tables filled. We got a beer and a soda. The beer was good but my Pepsi was flat and had a weird taste(like when they don't clean the machine properly nasty) we ordered the following. 1. Spicy Edamame 2. Deep Fried mushrooms 3. (2) orders of the Beef Teriyaki plate that comes with soup, salad, and white rice 4. Philadelphia roll 5. California Roll The spicy edamame was good ! The deep fried mushrooms were disgusting!! The beef plate I don't even know where to start, the meat had a rainbow color to it which is probably why the plate was drenched in teriyaki sauce and it was cold! Had a very weird smell to it we didn't even eat it!! I can't even explain the presentation or smell. The Philadelphia roll states is smoked salmon but it's not it's raw and when I asked her she said they (torch the meat) it definitely was not torched California roll was good the cucumber were fresh and crunchy ! We didn't even eat our beef plates we just paid for our food and left. She did take the Philadelphia roll off as we complained that it was suppose to be smoked salmon and it wasn't it was just raw. We probably will never return. I almost want my money back for how bad this place was.

Ju Hachi has been around forever and thankfully so because I've been able to enjoy their food for multiple decades now! I especially like their sesame chicken (sauce on side), sunomono, rainbow roll, Spicy Maria, agedashi tofu but honestly everything we've had here is good. Today we were served by Summer and our sushi chef was Sang. We weren't expecting such an awesome experience but they made it really special for us.

Food was alright, we came early evening so it was really quiet and we were the only table or 1 of 2 tables seated inside. The table we got was really wobbly and kept wobbling the entire time we ate. We were seated by the window which was nice but there was just a ton of webs, dust and bugs near the window. Sushi was alright, not bad but not the best I've had in Sac. Calamari was really oily and rubbery.

One Of The Bests Sushi & Japanese Teriyaki Stops In SacTown! https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/ju-hachi-sacramento-2?select=3PVWLOW6ewAgzuVIdLxENg&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w SITREP Man O' Man! When I get that Sushi Craving now, I'm ignoring all those sushi spots in the Arden area that used to be my mainstays. Now I go straight to Ju Hachi to take care of that NEED. THE SETUP Located conveniently downtown - just mere minutes away from where I live in Midtown. Plenty of room to dine in with a number of friends and family. https://www.yelp.com/biz_photos/ju-hachi-sacramento-2?select=Z1CFRqfyHohvkteTzVYWgA&userid=3mNz5nQFTIBQm0oU5mBR0w But they also have the take-out option which I like to avail myself often.

You won't regret it.

This was a wonderful find on yelp! The sushi chef was moving on to another adventure, so we were able to experience the artistry of sushi! He was able to create his own version of my taste buds! Funny owner, and cozy inside.

Been here a couple times and food is awesome! A little pricey but definitely large portions! So don't over order. Honestly probably my favorite CA roll. Very large for $10 compared to other places. Super fresh and delicious sushi rice. Sushi rolls we have had in the past were on point, fresh and large. The only roll I did t really care for was the tempura roll. Very basic- just shrimp tempura sauce and eel sauce. We did the smaller order of mixed tempura which was $10. Was reasonable for the amount received. A previous visit we got the sesame chicken entree and it was a huge portion. Could easily be shared but you'd probably still have a little leftover. Miso soup is on the pricier side $4.50 but so good!! I would skip the side salad it's all spinach lol

The waitress Summer treated us like royalty. She was so sweet and accommodating. I plan to come back here just for her!

Ju Hachi is a great spot for sushi. It's close to the ice blocks, so there's lots of street parking. Some of the parking is 1 hour only zones, so just be aware. The restaurant space is pretty small. There is a sushi bar, a couple of booths, and free standing tables. We were sat pretty quickly even though they were busy. Their menu is a QR code at the table. The service was good. Our drinks and appetizers came out quickly, but our rolls took a little longer than expected. The Brussels sprouts were amazing. 10/10 would recommend. The Cindy roll was spicy! I would eat it again! The Capitol roll was also good. The Chubby Andy and Hot Mama roll weren't bad, but I would try a different variety next time. Overall, it was good value for the price. Great location, and pretty tasty food.

Omg this place was amazing. The Corbett roll was soooo good and the portion sizes were great! It was a little pricy but it is a smaller restaurant. I'm so glad I finally tried this place. Service was friendly and I saw everyone helping out where they could. I can't wait to try more things on their menu!

Service was great from the moment we walked in the door, all staff greeted us with smiles. Small dining area but was sat right away. All appetizers and rolls were delicious. Perfect portions for the price and full of flavor. Fish tasted Very fresh. Waitress was very sweet and helpful, continued to make sure we had what we needed throughout our visit. We will for sure make this one of our to go to places for sushi. Great quiet location in downtown

Have been coming here for years, but only recently tried them for lunch and will definitely be back! Loved the variety and quality of their bento boxes. Speedy service. Simple but clean interior. Street parking only. Perfect spot for a quick sushi fix!

Man, I really wanted this to be a better experience. 7/1 we had concert tickets at the new Channel 24 venue and we booked a 5:45 PM reservation here for dinner for myself, my wife and my two adult daughters. From front to back this was a dismal restaurant experience. I'll just list out the negatives: - Miso soup tasted like a beef marinade - it was SO CONCENTRATED, presumably from cooking down on a burner all day. Total salt bomb. - We were flat-out ignored by our server for the majority of the meal. She came to check on us maybe once every half hour. She literally walked off mid-sentence while I was trying to order items and disappeared. We asked the other server to help us and she said she'd send our server over, never happened. We all left hungry because we literally did not have the opportunity to order the items we wanted. - Prices are crazy high - Several items on their menu were unavailable (eg salmon wings, oysters - you guys have a huge menu for a sushi place - maybe dial it back a bit if stock is an issue on a Tuesday evening) - Sakefin and Hamachi Carpaccio were very mediocre, albacore nigiri was just OK - Really it was probably the worst service I have ever received at a sushi restaurant - we felt like we were being pranked. The positives: - The sunomono and lamb lollipops were both quite delicious

Ju Hachi has been serving midtown Sacrament for many years and has always been consistent with their food. I can't tell you exactly how long Ju Hachi has been located at the corner of 17th and S but I can tell you that entire families have been raised in between times I've visited here. I'm not sure if they've had any ownership changes but along with their name and location, the rolls for the most part have been consistently tasty and they have flavors you wont find with their competition During my last visit, I got an assortment of rolls to share with my wife. We enjoyed everything so much, the rolls were big, the fish tasted fresh and the combo of flavors were just right. 2 of my favorite rolls were the Chubby Andy and the Orange Roll. This restaurant is not super huge inside, There's both indoor and outdoor seating available and there's also a bar to eat and drink at. I enjoyed the customer service and the waiter was happy to suggest some rolls while I was browsing the menu. FYI there is an old menu floating around online that features rolls they no longer make. Date night? give Ju Hachi a try!

Ju hachi is still one of our favorite sushi spots in Sac. Was able to make a reservation for 2 on a weekend for my husband's birthday. This restaurant is on the smaller side, and there's usually a wait during dinner time. We ordered stuffed, fried mushrooms, and gyoza as appetizers. Both were delicious. For entrees, we got a few rolls and the chicken yaki udon. Everything tasted fresh, and flavors were really good. The Ju Hachi roll was much bigger than expected, but the presentation was beautiful. For dessert my husband got some mochi ice cream for his birthday, delicious as always.

After Chalk It Up, my party of 5 came for lunch on Labor Day monday with no wait when we arrived! We ordered fried calamari, crispy brussel sprouts, and stuffed mushroom to share. The calamari portion was a bit small to share among us and jalapenos were not spicy at all. The crispy brussel sprouts lost its crisp due to the aioli it was covered in but the stuffed mushrooms were big and had a nice meatiness to it. We also ordered the cindy, corbett, capitol, and kohaku rolls. The cindy roll was massive, requiring at least two bites per piece. Our favorite was the capital roll which didn't have too much sauce so we could enjoy the raw fish. Glad I got to dine-in this time after trying takeout for a Yelp event prior. Restaurant was clean, there's plenty of street parking, and servers were patient and kind. This is a great spot to get sushi!
