"I ordered the “Deluxe Chirashi Bowl” on DoorDash and was satisfied with the meal. Some points: 1. Overall, the cuts of fish are very high quality. I applaud them for this. Chu-toro was cut generously. 2. The sauces are too overpowering. It felt way too salty with how much ponzu was drizzled. Traditionally, chirashi/kaisen don bowls should highlight the fish. I felt like I was tasting too much sauce for my liking. The rice was not enough to “balance out” the saltiness. Then, there was also this sour-sweet relish that, by itself, could be good. But they drizzled so much of it I couldn’t taste the fish/rice anymore. Overall, too much sauce. 3. I appreciated how they added their “signature touch” to the chirashi bowl with puréed yam. It balanced the salmon. 4. Presentation is very good. I liked how they scored the salmon. Good touch. 5. For a deluxe chirashi bowl, I was let down with only a single piece of uni and a single piece of amaebi. Usually, uni should come in two pieces? Somewhat understandable, since Santa Barbara uni is expensive these days (I’m pretty sure it’s Santa Barbara uni). 6. Rice is okay—nothing special unfortunately. I admit I have pretty high standard with my sushi rice though."

"My favorite place to have Toro fish! Not sure if it's the best in the Bay, gotta try in other places still to find out and compare but for sure they always have amazing service and spectacular quality!! There was absolutely no bad weather or bad time, even if there is a big line... You should wait for your turn there! Cheesecake is small, but is so delicious and is Matcha flavor. Help this small business, food is good and the fish is fresh!!"

"Delicious. Great customer service. The Delux Chirashi Bowl was filled with all of the best flavors. I wanted to try here for a while, but it was always a long wait. I was lucky, and it wasn't packed today (Sunday dinner)"

"I got the deluxe chirashi which was delicious. It was $48. All the fish was so fresh, melts in your mouth, and I can taste the very fresh fish oils in the fish. It made me so happy to eat it. I haven’t had such fresh fish in a long time. I’d like to try the deluxe omakase next time but it’s very expensive like $88. This is probably the best semi-affordable sushi place I’ve tried in a long time. They are new so I hope they don’t raise prices or decrease in quality in the future if they become popular like how many other restaurants have."

"Good real authentic qualities sushi you don't often find everywhere. The fish are fresh. I love all the nigiri but not so much the soft shell crab."
