Sushi Omakase — Restaurant in Gilroy

I have been here dozens of times now and I have yet to have a bad experience. The food is always amazing, even though when I try new stuff I don't always like it, but that is just me as I can be picky in some things, but there is always someone with me that digs those things that I do not, so win/win!

I think I have tried all of the rolls now and I recommend always trying these here until you get a set of those that you prefer. The bento boxes are always good and I recommend that salmon over the chicken.

Try their chicken gyoza, garlic edamame, cucumber side salad and seaweed side salad and the G Clooney roll and the Mexican roll are two of our favorites.

The staff is ALWAYS amazing!!! Friendly and fast though sometimes when they are slammed things slow down, but it happens to everyone. :)

Last but not least is the fresh chopped wasabi... Get it. Just get it. Don't mix it with the soy sauce like one does with the fake wasabi, green colored horseradish, use it lovingly over each roll and savor it! It is sometimes stronger than the fake stuff and sometimes is the same, but the flavor is a little different and the texture is completely different. Give it a try and let me know what you think! I now get sad when I go to a sushi place out of town and ask for fresh wasabi but almost no one...

This was our first time here, and to be fair we got a to-go order and did not sit down in the restaurant. Needless to say, we probably won't be going there to dine in...ever.

We got the edamame and chicken gyoza. The gyoza wasn't bad, but it was completely tasteless. The sauce that came with it was very strong and vinegary...not typically what comes with gyoza. The edamame had no salt on it, and had water in the bottom of the Styrofoam container and in the individual edamame. Typically edamame is supposed to be crisp and lightly salted...this was neither.

Last but not least we got the lobster bisque roll, thinking it would be interesting since we love lobster bisque. It was the grossest sushi we've ever had. First off, they put all the sushi in the box with a large pile of melted cheese on top. Cheese (not cream cheese) and sushi is the last thing I would put on sushi. Then, when you start eating the sushi you realize it's not lobster you're eating, but crab. And I'm pretty sure it was canned crab too. Besides the one piece of avocado, there was nothing else in the sushi.

Normally if a to go order was so so I'd go there to get the actual experience, but honestly after this I'm not going to even give it...

We love Sushi Omakase so much that we end up there at least three times a month. The waitresses are always helpful and fast, the drinks are strong, and the chef's are amazing. Not sure why people on here had to wait so long, we've never waited more than a 1/2 hour! The garlic edamame is phenomenal, although if there were a way to pierce the shells so the flavor could penetrate the soy beans they would be perfection. The Miso soup is the best, the agedashi tofu in the broth is a must have, although I don't care for bonito flakes but they make for a good show. The basic rolls are splendid, and I love having the option of soy paper rather than nori. The vegetable tempura and udon soup is absolutely ENORMOUS. You can go deep (tempura) any roll, and the Charlie Sheen roll is brilliant, although the two sauces kind of over power the taste. I get mine without it. The smoked salmon and cream cheese roll is great, and you must have the spicy tuna. Finally, if you aren't getting the freshly chopped wasabi, you are missing a brilliant...
