Came here after a hike nearby on a Saturday at about 1:30 and was happy to find a sushi place with such high ratings so decided to give it a go. There was seating outside but it was a bit warm so we decided to sit inside. They had music playing in the background and it was honestly a bit loud and distracting. Service was prompt and they took our order without trying to rush us.
We ended up ordering a nabeyaki udon, 49er roll, BoB roll, and a Mountain View roll along with some tea and a drink. Our first impressions were that everything was priced a bit higher than we expected, but hey, as long as the food delivered, that shouldn't be an issue. I think the first tip off that this wasn't going to be the case was the ginger and wasabi that was brought to us in a little togo plastic container. I honestly didn't know what to say to this, I was just blown away at how unexpected that was.
Food didn't take too long to get out (maybe 15 minutes). They did bring out two bowls for us to share the udon, so that was nice. Don't mean to be disrespectful or anything but the noodles tasted like instant noodles. The broth was very flat and tasted like it came from a powder. On to the sushi, 49er roll had a nice touch where they added some additional salmon inside of the roll as well as on top. Haven't seen this before and was excited thinking that their sushi was much better quality and was a bit disappointed. While the fish quality wasn't bad, it wasn't particularly good either and had a fishy smell/taste to them. This was much more apparent in the 49er roll since it wasn't doused in sauce. By now, we didn't expect much out of either of the two rolls and they were just about the same quality.
I'm hoping they had a really off day or their main chef was off or something. I'm not sure I'd go back. The prices were just too high for us considering the quality...
Read moreThe Food Sushi Plus is one of my go-to sushi restaurant in the NorCal Bay Area. I've been there quite a few times, and tried many different selections from the menu. The order this time around is... Jina Roll (Rice Free Roll) Sake Sashimi (Salmon) Combination Sushi & Sashimi (Chef's Choice) But some of the others I've tried that I recommend are... Crazy Taco Crazy Roll Super Duper Roll Their main focus are sushi, so all their nigiri, sashimi, and rolls are very good. They do not skim on the ingredients. Unlike other places that focus on rice for their sushi, this place has a good rice to fish ratio. They have other Japanese dishes also, but sushi is the recommendation.
The Miscellaneous Sushi Plus is within a plaza, so there are plenty of parking. The restaurant itself is not super big, but there are a decent amount of seating. Though during peak hours it can get pretty packed and long wait time. Their services has always been good, and staffs are sincere every time I went. The menu can get a bit overwhelming because their have a lot of choices and categories to choose from. But most of their selections are good, and there's nothing wrong with getting the usual. The prices are quite reasonable with the quantity and quality they provide when compared to other restaurants. Definitely recommend this place if you haven't...
Read moreWOW - really shocked by the portion sizes here, but in a good way! The sushi and sashimi here are such a great deal given the quantity. The fish is not the greatest quality but the cuts are very generous. This is a great place if you're looking for a sushi deal!
My boyfriend and I shared the DELUXE SASHSMI ($30) for 2 people. This was a heaping platter of fish which also came with 2 salads, miso soups, and bowls of rice. The portion was truly generous and we couldn't finish the platter. After eating, the BF remarked that he had never felt so full from sashimi before!
We also tried the CRAZY ROLL ($11) which consisted of Tuna + Salmon + Yellowtail Covered With Avocado + Tobiko. The cuts of fish in this roll were GINORMOUS--we felt like we were basically eating huge slices of sashimi adorned with some extra rice and avocado. YUM!
We will definitely return soon and will probably order more of the specialty rolls here instead of the sashimi next time. I had some diner envy and kept eyeing rolls at the other tables. The atmosphere is cute and casual and there is easy parking in the big lot outside. Expect long waits on weekends during peak hours. Servers were attentive and brought out our...
