Miyako Japanese Restaurant — Restaurant in Hollister

This was our first time here. Now, I know I only have them 3 stars, but I will go back to hopefully get a better experience. Food: we had some sushi rolls, some were fried, and some weren't. The rolls were good. I wouldn't say they are the best I've had, but they were good. Service: I'm sorry to say that the service was not good. Don't get me wrong, once the waiter and waitress came, they were helpful and nice, but the problem was they took forever. Although it was busy, not all the tables were taken. When our food came, we asked for water and a refill on the tea, but they totally forgot about it. We had to ask a second time, and even then, it took some time. Atmosphere: The setup is cool, but what was not cool was the table had a glass on top and a table cloth on the bottom, but the table cloth was dirty. Also, it might have been where we were sitting, but there was an unpleasant smell Conclusion: The food was good. The service should be improved and more proactive. The table cloths should be cleaned or just get rid of them and leave the glass on top The smell has to be taken care of. Like I said at the beginning, I will try it out one more time and see...

The food is very good, however the service is not. I've been ordering take out for the last few years, and this last time was my last due to missing food from my order, this has happened so many times Ive lost count but still kept ordering take out because the food is so good, until now. Every time I pick up my food I go over my order they assure me it's all there, they act bothered if I ask them to open the bags so I can see for myself, and when I get home I'm missing several items. This is terrible since I not only pay for the food I tip 20% OR MORE ON TAKE OUT. Last complaint is when I call to order take out the guy speaks in a normal tone, when I tell him Im calling to order take out his voice becomes a whisper saying we are ONLY taking cash, I fell for that a few times until I went to pick up my food one night and saw everyone was paying with a card including the take out people. I thought why am I told I can only pay with cash, was my cash plus tip really going to the restaurant? I had my doubts. It's to bad I'm unhappy with the service at this restaurant because to me it WAS one of the best in the...

Great time dining with my family of 9. It wasn't too packed for a Saturday at 6 pm, so our food started to come out about 20 mins after we ordered. Everything tasted amazing. I read other reviews about portion size, but i don't think people realize that in Japan, this is the normal portion size. The sauces weren't drowning the rolls. I'd say it was the perfect amount. Kids friendly space and parking is available front and back of the building. What we ordered APPITIZERS-Mix tempura, aji fry, fried octopus, baked mussels, and soft shell crab. I would recommend them all - my personal favorite was soft shell crab appetizer!! ROLLS - catapillar, lobster roll, lemon drop roll, spider, crunchy, california, lion king, and sal skin roll - All rolls were fantastic. My personal favorite was lemon drop roll Salmon kama- yummy Tokyo Hamachi- DELICIOUS DESSERT - deep fried ice cream and fried banana Loved them both!

Friendly staff and atmosphere. I will be coming back soon! Love supporting the small guys, especially in a growing town.

Wish I took pictures but the next visit I...
