Supreme Sushi Restaurant — Restaurant in Hollister

I don’t know what it is with these Japanese restaurants in Hollister. This is the second one I’ve gone to that does not use an umami or dashi base. I suppose this is better than the other restaurant in town, which gave me hot water. (Bleh!)

I ordered the chicken udon, and all I got was hot water with soy sauce and mirin. Though I got a lot of chicken and a lot of noodles, I had just a few pieces of vegetables. In other words, this isn’t what you would typically expect from a Japanese restaurant. You expect a lot more, with far better quality. For the ~$15 they charge, that’s rather pricey. I’ve ate at other Japanese places in in the Silicon Valley where you get much more food (and better food) for the same price.

I'd like to say that the saving grace of this restaurant was the price, which was very reasonable, but given that the food and service was so bad, even the price...

This place used to be better. Granted, The last time I was there was over a couple years ago. I was excited to get some good sushi, but was met with regret. We ordered 2 bento boxes. Every side had zero flavor. Seemed like everything we ordered just wasn't seasoned. The chicken teriyaki, on the other hand, was too salty. If it was any better I would try them again, but you could truly tell the lack of effort involved in making our food. Maybe they are falling back on their 4+ review score or only looking at comments like "omg the staff was so friendly" sorry folks, but I came for sushi and was disappointed to find their kindness didn't translate into salt and pepper...
