Sushi Tomi

Recently, we went for dinner, and we were able to sit at the Sushi Bar. Carrie, our server was very good! Carrie gave us Edamame, that was really good. My wife had the Sushi & Sashimi Bento which included Miso soup, that was very good. I had Nigiri Sushi of Hamachi Toro, Otoro, Hotate, and California Roll. Everything was so delicious that we ate it all and boy were we full! They don't take reservations, and they're so popular that the restaurant fills up fast. There's always a line outside waiting to get in. We recently went again and sat at the Sushi Bar. Pauline our server was very nice and gave us Edamame to start. We had one Sashimi dinner and also various Nigiri Sushi which included Maguro, Toro, Hamachi Toro and California Roll, plus the Special Tomi Roll. Everything was so fresh and delicious. We couldn't eat it all and took some home which was still good the next day.

Sushi Tomi did a great job catering for my work event for 40 people. Sushi: 14 types of nigiri (12-15 each), 4 regular rolls (7 each), 14 insideout rolls (5-7 each). Appetizers (8 each): wakame (seaweed salad), vegetable tempura, chicken karaage, deep fried gyoza. Everyone was very impressed by the quality of the food -- very fresh and wonderfully prepared. Oishii! The food was arranged nicely in large pans for buffet style. They were very helpful in labeling each pan as veg, vegan, gluten and gluten free. They provided ample soy sauce, tamari (GF), tempura sauce, gyoza sauce, wasabi, ginger, and chopsticks. I worked with Tak on this large order. He was very helpful and accommodating. He had to have his chefs come to work 2 hours early to prepare the large order for pickup at 11:30am. Tak and his friendly staff helped me load all the food into my car. I highly recommend catering from Sushi Tomi. Thanks Tak! (Dining in is also recommended!)

Had a fantastic dinner at Tomi Sushi in downtown Mountain View! Everything was fresh, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. I ordered the spicy tuna roll, spicy salmon roll, dragon roll, and a salmon teriyaki dinner, each dish was spot on. The salmon teriyaki was perfectly grilled with a delicious glaze, and the sushi rolls were fresh and well-balanced. The miso soup and rice rounded out the meal perfectly. Cozy atmosphere, friendly service, and great quality all around. Definitely a local favorite worth returning to!

I ordered the special nigiri sushi set and the caterpillar roll for takeout. I liked that the nigiri had less rice, and the fish was fresh. The caterpillar roll seemed to aim for a clean flavor, but with very little sauce on the eel, it tasted a bit bland and unfinished. Overall, it’s one of the better spots I’ve tried in the South Bay, and I’d probably go back.

This restaurant seems to have people lining up often so we had high expectations. I eat nigiri and american style rolls often in the bay area and some nigiri in Tokyo, so I have some sense of what good sushi is like. The cut of nigiri here is aesthetically uneven, which would be ok if the cut was good. To me it didn’t taste especially good quality. We both felt the items we got were very average and not worth the price… if you are particular about sushi I’d skip this spot. The tomi special roll was the only thing I liked

The quality is definitely top-notch, but the variety of sushi rolls is a bit limited, and the plate presentation could be improved. We went on a Sunday evening around 6:30 PM and only waited about 5 minutes, even though there’s usually a line.

Definitely one of my favorite sushi spots in all of South Bay for casual nigiri and sushi rolls. All of the sashimi are so consistently fresh and high quality. The salmon pieces are so thick and amazing. The uni was so flavorful and tasted like the ocean (in a good way). Everything was super great value for the price too! My fiance and I came at 5:30pm on a Friday and were able to get a table immediately, we barely beat the dinner rush because by the time we finished ordering, the storefront started getting crowded with people waiting for a spot. The service is okay, friendly but not super attentive. Our server essentially only came by for us to order and then drop off the check at the end. But she did give really good menu suggestions.

We visit Tomi a lot. Most recently I tried their extra special nigiri and really loved it! The raw shrimp and Uni nigiri’s were very fresh and sweet. Super fatty tuna melted in my mouth. Also loved the eel.
