As someone who has had their vegan and regular rolls, I'd argue that some of their vegan rolls are better then the normal ones! So many creative flavors and textures. Nice portion sizes too! And they split our checks even as a group and that's always appreciated. This and kin len's across the street have become our 2 go-to spots for celebrations. As a long time vegetarian I was used to getting boring and bland rolls, but Kamakura has changed the game Note: no reservations, even for big groups. So really 4.5, but their food makes up for their sometimes lacking service. I do appreciate the service buttons though so you don't have to flag down a waiter!

Server was friendly so 2 stars. I've done sushi since I was 14 and this sushi sucks. Wish I didn't spend my money here.

I'm a sucker for sake flights, especially ones that surprised me in terms of which drink I'd like the most. All three sakes were delicious, and definitely encouraged me to get more of them. Yakitori was a little on the oily side, but a large enough portion that splitting it out to two meals was perfect. Tonkatsu and the chashu don were also quite good. The location of this place is great, as it's right in central Fremont close to the Fremont Troll and many other bars, so perfect for an evening meal out. Great service with great recommendations by the staff as well.

Kamakura was suggested as they have an extensive vegan friendly menu with a variety of rolls to try. I figured this would be as good as anytime to see how their vegan sushi stacks up to what I've had in the past.I ordered their Vegan Dragon Roll ($13) and their Google It Roll ($15). The dragon roll was pretty unimpressive if I'm behind honest. It felt like a tofu-CA roll with slices of tofu on top. The Google roll was a lot more interesting and inventive, though the unagi sauce overpowered most of the dish. Overall, a very average sushi experience.I also ordered a side of their Seaweed Salad but wasn't impressed with the small amount I received.Overall, a very standard Japanese spot and although I appreciate the vegan options, one of the rolls simply didn't cut it for me.

A very surprisingly good Japanese restaurant! I ended up at this spot after being told that the wait for Kin Len across the street would be over an hour. Since we needed a spot to eat at quickly, this place popped up on Yelp and was right there. Upon arriving we were told that the wait would be 20 minutes, but we were actually seated in around 5.We got the menu quickly, and when you're ready to order they have a button you can press for service. I got the Geisha roll, and at the table we also had the crunchy roll and chicken curry. The presentation of the curry was beautiful and unique, and it was quite good! I honestly can't tell the difference between Japanese curries too much, but I still enjoyed it. The geisha roll was fantastic -- fresh salmon and crab wrapped inside with unagi on the outside. All my favorites in one roll! It was a little smaller than I would have liked, but still delicious nonetheless.Overall, a great spot for some Japanese food in a cozy environment. The menu is vast so there's definitely opportunities to try more!

Great sushi and Japanese food spot! The food was tasty and prices were reasonable, so I'm glad to have found this spot.Originally we had planned on only ordering sushi, but saw that their menu had a lot of tasty Japanese dishes so we had to try some. We got shrimp tempura, spicy tuna roll, California roll, spider roll, and chicken katsu curry. Everything was delicious and the sushi felt high quality. The chicken katsu had a pretty big portion and was flavorful! Would definitely recommend this spot for sushi and Japanese! There were other Japanese dishes that looked tasty, so I'll be back to try them.

Ambience (3/5) - Usual Asian cozy place with traditional furniture. Food (3/5) - We ordered Hamachi Lover RollSpicy California RollsLoved the rice, gives you at home feeling. However, personally it was a bit dry for me Service (3/5) - The service was decent, however a bit slow which was understandable as we were a big group

My friend and I came here for lunch on a Sunday. We came right before their midday closure, and I'm grateful that they seated us!Food:I got the avocuddle roll, the oshinko roll, and the creamy inari nigiri. All of the items were vegan and absolutely delicious. I loved the variety of vegetarian and vegan options here. I wish I lived closer so I can come back and try all of the options. mService:The service here was friendly and quick. We were seated quickly and greeted immediately. Our food came out pretty promptly as well. TL;DR - great vegan options with friendly service!

When I come to town this is my #1 spot for the absolute BEST VEGAN sushi. The staff is friendly and helpful. Parking is a challenge but well worth the hassle.

What has happened? The food and the service have gone down. We used to love coming here. We would tell everyone about it, and being friends often. We placed an Uber order last night.The last two times we've ordered the vegan fried rice, it didn't come with the veggies (carrots and peas), just rice and tofu? We needed to call and ask that onions be removed from the fried rice and death by crunch roll. Just the toppings. Before we completed our sentence, the guy interrupted us and stated the order has been made already, without hesitation. We reminded him that we had placed the order one minute prior to calling..awkward... then we kindly gave our name and asked that the onions be removed from the items. He located our order and continued to scoff through the entire, very short, convo. It was a Monday night. Also, I ordered a Sake Don (salmon on rice bowl) and my body reacted almost instantly. I eat sushi often so it was a big surprise. I can't help but ask why.I included how the fried rice should look and what we received, not once but twice now. Disappointing.
