I came in on a Sunday afternoon for lunch with some friends and we were greeted by the friendly ladies in the front. We were all craving sushi but this place did not satisfy our needs. I enjoyed the caterpillar roll but the raw fish on our nigiri combo wasn't the most fresh & left my stomach feeling queasy after I left the restaurant. The rice could have also been softer but it wasn't a dealbreaker. The miso soup was also a bit bland & didn't have tofu. Various tables inside with cozy ambiance on a rainy day along with a single stall bathroom. Not sure if I will be back again.

My usual favorite Japanese restaurant in the area was closed today so I came here for a quick take out dinner. I order salmon carpaccio and a 10 piece sashimi Moriwase which came with rice OMG! Most places serve sashimi without rice these days so I was shocked, but pleasantly surprised. The salmon carpaccio was pretty good, but the fish was decent. Good selection. I would definitely come back. Parking. Wasn't bad in the evening. Plenty of street parking. good service food was ready in less than 10 minutes. Definitely do over.!

Came on a Friday evening without reservation for 2. Service was quick and friendly. The restaurant was tiny but still spacious. We ordered cold sake, very different and tasty! First time having cold sake. The skewers were delicious but a bit dry for my preference. The char on the skewers are different, doesn't have that charcoal crispy grill. Chicken karaage was very dry and tough. Not much of a crunch from from the batter. Rice and raw octopus with wasabi was delicious, I really liked the nori with it. Sashi was good and fresh. Got a free mango mochi for dessert on the house. That was a nice touch to finish dinner at the end.

We were visiting from SoCal and stopped in for lunch. There was something for everyone. My son loved the salmon rolls and salmon sushi. My daughter said her udon was really delicious and I enjoyed the tofu & avocado salad. The service was really nice, and they were very understanding of an antsy little boy causing trouble ;) they even gave us some complimentary strawberry mochi dessert. Very nice!

Great food, clean place and great service. We ordered karage and ramen to try the basic Japanese food and it was good. Also try a tofu avocado salad. Overall a great place

Ijo Izakaya is definitely a place you shouldn't underestimate. TONS of menu items and wide variety of options. Izakaya's are my favorite spots for getting many different Japanese bites.I stopped in on a Saturday afternoon and was sat immediately. Smaller restaurant but their food is large in flavor/quality. Staff was welcoming and always checking in on me. I ordered:Yellowtail Carpaccio Ikura (salmon roe)EelSalmon SashimiDynamite RollEverything was very fresh and good size portions. Ikura (salmon roe) can be very fishy but it was not fishy at all and I loved it. The eel was almost butter like and melted in my mouth. Really great quality all around and would highly recommend stopping by.

I had lunch there recently and the food is really good! They have a good bento box that they serve all day! I love the pot stickers but they run out the last time I was there! This made me disappointed but I still gave you five stars what brand of pot stickers do you carry it will be nice to know! Thanks, Cheryl Davis

Small restaurant on Shattuck in Berkeley. It shares about a block long space with other dining places. There's outdoor seating.We sat inside as it was a little windy and found it to be quite cozy and chill. They weren't too busy. Our nice server promptly came with waters, and after a few minutes we ordered our food selections.We ordered two two-item bento boxes and other family ordered sushi rolls, skewers, agedashi tofu. We were hungry that I forgot to take pictures of some of the items!Food was delicious, staff was nice and love the ambiance. Ample street parking nearby.

Food: The food was mostly under salted and over cooked and the fish quality was not the best. We had the mentaiko cream udon and the broccoli that came with it was mushy. The rice was hard and cold. Would also avoid the tuna roll that came with the nigiri combo.Service: The service was normal.Ambiance: The ambiance was alright. Nothing stood out but the tables are covered in vinyl peel and stick paper.We came because the yelp page looked promising but it was an unfortunate experience, definitely didn't satisfy the sushi craving.
