I got a bento and beef fried rice to go. - The tempura was a joke - the batter is just wrong, too thick, closer to what Korean/Chinese food uses. - The salad tasted stale with dried out vegetables that have definitely been put out for too long. - The beef fried rice had no taste but salt and the beef was way too tendon-y and chewy.- Even California roll tasted mushy. I think they used poor quality imitation crab and the roll could've used an extra stick of cucumber inside Sorry Sumo. I wasn't originally planning to post a bad review but later that day my Duolingo nudged me to

We had a good experience at this one. Although they do carry out an elaborate vegetarian menu but I was feeling an extra brave to try out the sushi as it should be.So, I ordered the rainbow sushi that had a good mix of fish in one plate. And, I must say they did a great job there. The sushi was perfect with great flavors and felt really fresh. The tropical mango roll was vegetarian and it was flavorful. We also had the mochi dessert - both ice cream and red bean paste. While, they both were good, I liked the one with ice cream better as it was not very chewy.The servers were okay, make sure you check the order once it's placed as they kinda have language barrier. The ambiance was also okayish (maybe because we went there pretty late on a weekday).

I went to this restaurant back in late-January with my 8 year old son, his friend, and my wife (my review is late). I was impressed with this restaurant. The ambiance is average but the food and service were AWESOME. FOOD* Seaweed salad: The presentation of the salad was outstanding and it was very tasty and lightly seasoned.* Shishito peppers: A must have here...sorry they went fast before I could take a pic!* Gyoza: The Gyozas were an instant hit! We had to order two orders because the boys devoured the apps and we had to get more for the table.* Kids chicken teriyaki: The presentation was outstanding (see pic) and it came with salad. My son and his friend loved this* 1 item bento (Salmon): My wife got the 1 item bento and she said the fish was very tasty.* Tuna Sashimi: Presentation was outstanding; I had to get Nigiri from the sushi boat too!* Spicy Tuna Roll: This was good and left me wanting more.All in all we will be going back to this place again.

Delicious sushi with good vegan/vegetarian options, and a fun recolving sushi train running inside! My team of 7 came here for a lunch on a Friday at 12, were seated pretty much immediately and had a great time. Prices are pretty reasonable and everyone loved the sushi. Only reason I'm not giving 5 stars is because the waiter wasn't particularly knowledgeable about it the rolls- I'm vegan so I don't eat honey, and someone asked if if would be possible to get the honey walnut avocado rolls without any honey, and the waiter said yes, which was just not true. The roll is made with honey coated walnuts, and it was pretty obvious when it came out that the walnuts had honey on them. However there are a number of rolls that I'm pretty sure are legitimately vegan, and I especially enjoyed the jessie special.

Came here for a quick lunch. Not bad, place is nice, has a train in the middle for eating sushi at the bar. My group mostly had bento boxes. I had some rolls. Might come back if I am in the area.

Like the conveyer belt for instant gratification. Nice and friendly servers. Good selection of maki and hand rolls. A full page of the menu dedicated to vegetarian people. We had house special and dragon roll and both are very good. The scallop hand roll is very good too. Pricing is what you expect in Los Altos, CA.

IF YOU HAVE ANY RESPECT TO YOURSELF READ THIS COMMENT BEFORE GOING THIS PLACE!This was the worst experience in my LIFE. Yes in my LIFE! We did our reservation from google for this restaurant and went there before our reservation.But the host was so pretty boy and he showed us a table. We were 3. Mom who is coming from abroad to visit us, and 6yo daughter and this should have been a happy dinner for us.Then the lady (later we learnt she is boss's wife) came to our table with her terrible loudly and angry voice, weird body language yelled us that she cleaned that table now and we can't sit overhere. Everybody looked at us and I shocked and didn't understand what was she talking about. I tought this was her table and she was a customer too but a problem customer. Then I realised that she is a staff over there! What? Is that the way to tell this to us? Am I your staff? How can you shout to us while I am there with my family especially with a kid? Couldn't believe what I have heard!Then I called the manager. She yelled I am the manager! She was like crazy, her eyes, hair, manners.. Then boss came to our table and he told that we are right, sorry sorry. While we were talking the lady came again and yelled again like we were her enemies! I believe that if we were outside or if there was noone there she would try to hurt me. She started to talk with her own language. How can I know that what she told?She was passing our tables with the voice like snake tsss and rolling her eyes. She was exactly making a tsss sound like a snake.She showed us with her hands to other customers and talked about who knows what.The boss was apologizing desperately but she was yelling just behind him.She was acting like we were insects. My daughter was so scared because of her behaviors and my mom also shocked! They made me very ashamed towards my family.Then I arrenged other restaurant( Yoshi Sushi) which had better atmosphere. We had our dinner peacefully.If you know what respect is to your own, you shouldn't go this impolite restaurant.

This has been my go to sushi and Japanese food restaurant for the past 10 years! Staff is extremely friendly and attentive! The recent remodel is gorgeous and gives a classy ambiance! Food is super high quality and they have a wide variety of vegetarian options. The curry, vegetarian rolls, and shirashi are some favs! Must try if you are in the area!! So worth it for the price and a great local business to support!!

NOPE. While the fish was good, the sushi rice was TERRIBLE. For the higher price, the sushi should've been spot on. The sushi rice was undercooked (not old or dried out) and the seasoning of the rice was weird or maybe not even there. The rice needs to compliment the fish; this rice really ruined the sushi. I won't be coming back.
