Satomi Sushi 2

So I am kind of a reg at their original location (closer to home) and even updated my reviews for that location to a fiver. Finally tried this second location (twice) within the past 3 months and think a review can be whipped up. Now this spot had been a sushi spot before that I had tried, but first time trying this location as a Satomi. I think I like the interior of the older one better, more neighborly. This one has super high industrial ceilings so it has a colder feel. And for the space it seems they could jam in a few more tables, but they probably don't want to bring on more staff to accommodate higher volume. I've pretty much seen the same staff on both outings and both times have been friendly and fast.Negihama Roll ($8/4*) Very tightly rolled and a little on the petite side. Solid flavors and textures tho from the fresh hamachi to the rice to the crisp nori and hits of green onion. This is probably my favorite simple roll right up there with a Tekka Maki. Saba Shioyaki ($19/4*) I love the one at the other location, and I think they do a slightly better job there. This one was just okay. This one also has more bones, which I don't get at the other one.Hamachi Kama ($17/4*) Properly char grilled and piping hot as it arrives. Nice big collar too and the meat pulls off easily off the bones. Just think it could have been seasoned a bit more as it was kinda bland. They give like a ponzu sauce but I'm not a huge sauce person, just like nice salty bites with charred meats...then a sip of beer.Juno Roll ($15/4*) I usually don't order big ass rolls but I will try a few pieces if someone else orders it. This actually wasn't bad but definitely a tad too busy for me. Tempura shrimp in the middle, then covered with sushi rice, cucumbers and spicy tuna. That would have been enough for me, but then the remainder of roll is topped with raw fishes like salmon and tuna and topped with a chili sauce and slice jalapeno. Actually since this is a Korean owned sushi spot, they actually rock an above average selection of spicy type of sushi rolls. If you are into that sort of thing, you now know where to head to. This roll wasn't hot by any means, but it definitely has a kick. Now I wouldn't want to eat a whole roll to myself but to a eat a few pieces, I would not resist. Still have to try a chirashi bowl here but now knowing that I can trust them, will make it much easier for me to give them that whirl.

Nice vibe, quick service, friendly staffs. Sushi is decent.Rainbow rolls - various type of raw fish sushigolden gate - salmon and yellow tail, both were awesomely fresh.vege lover: delicious and refreshing rolls with the japanese pickles. green salad: nice.

We have been to Satomi several times and finally writing a review. This time we came for an early dinner to celebrate a special occasion. We were greeted at the door and seated right away. Once seated we were provided menus and miso soup. Service is always outstanding. This location has easy access and ample parking.We ordered:Chicken teriyaki bento, Cherry Blossom roll, Dragon roll, Crazy roll, and Crunchy roll.The sushi came out fresh and delicious. This is one of the best sushi restaurants in Fremont and we feel the prices are reasonable.It's a good place for dinner with family and friends.

The waitress gave a kind greeting upon entering and gentleman behind the bar suggested sitting in further to keep cool.The tempura was perfectly cooked, the sauce was decent, the Katsu came with a TON of chicken ( we could have shared it). The price point for the bbq ribs was a little high (picture reflects all the pieces- see orange for scale).They had a good variety of sake, wines, and beers.TV screens over the bar were sports without sound. Pop music was playing low. Ample parking so you can just pull up and walk in. Cindy is a great waitress and assest to this establishment.

This place was always in our favorites for Japanese restaurants. We always dined at the Thornton location and occasionally at the Mowry one. A group of us landed on the Mowry location this time and it was an okay experience. The uni had a bitter taste to us and wasn't super fresh or creamy. And one of the appetizers I ordered specifically stated snow crab on the menu, but it was imitation crab. I understated the rising costs of ingredients these days, but advertising it as something else is not acceptable. Perhaps we will stick to the Thornton location as we've never had a bad experience there.

Satomi Sushi is one of my favorite sushi spots that's close to home and also very good quality food! My family and I arrived at around 7 PM and were seated immediately. The ambiance is pretty quiet and peaceful, so it was definitely a great spot to relax and catch up. To preface, we ordered the Bay Scallop roll, Flaming Dragon roll, and Cherry Blossom Roll to split and I ordered a Tempura Udon for myself. Bay Scallop: It's really hard for me to dislike any scallop roll because I love scallops and I always like the sauce on top of the roll. This roll was absolutely a hit in my books! The sauce was so warm but didn't take away from the flavor of the fish. If we were a roll-only family, I'd order two of these if I could. If you like baked scallops, you HAVE to try! Flaming Dragon: I thought this roll was pretty good, but nothing can beat my Bay Scallop. It was also very saucy and came in a tin foil that was lit on fire. It took around five minutes for the fire to die down, which I thought was a bit longer than usual, but it was worth the wait! It had a little tiny kick of spice to it that only amplified the taste of the sauce. Cherry Blossom: I honestly liked the other two rolls more. I have a bit more bias towards saucy rolls because I love reaching for that extra ginger to mellow out the sauce taste, but this roll was okay. If you like that fresh, simple taste of a sushi roll, this one is definitely something you should try! Tempura Udon: I think the rolls outshined this a bit. It's pretty much your average udon-- it was savory, hot, and delicious! I could have gone with a little less veggies than what was in here, but it definitely helped my body warm up after a cold day! It's definitely a big size for just one person- I recommend splitting it with another person if you are also ordering rolls. The portion of the tempura was a lot more than I expected and I only ended up eating a few pieces. Definitely worth your money if you are looking for some soup! Overall, Satomi has never missed their mark for me. The wait staff was very attentive to making sure that we had everything we need and that our water cups stayed full throughout the dinner. We'll definitely be coming back!

A must go to spot if you're craving a bento box for dinner... teriyaki chicken and salmon are my favorites. Healthy portions, soup tastes great and salad had good dressing. They give you a lot of crispy tempura also. Quick service and is never busy on weekdays!!

Came here for my friend's graduation dinner. The staff are super friendly. Food was good. I wish there were more of an upgraded menu. By far, their chicken teriyaki was so good compared to other places I've been to. The rolls were flavorful. Restaurant was clean and organized. Parking was easy!

I've been to Satomi over 15 times now and that quality has always been great! Good portions and good rolls. I would focus on ordering rolls here, especially the gansta roll. I think this is one of the best weekday sushi restaurants you could get in Fremont. It is dependable and consistent. This branch is better than the Thornton one as parking is much easier too.

Food is tasty, fresh and good portions!Service is good! Ambiance is nice. Always go to Satomi when I crave Japanese food!!
