    This is another OG classic spot for sushi in Fremont! Not only are their rolls good, but they have some really good kitchen entrees too. The sushi rolls had generous amounts of fish and less rice, just how we like it. I was mostly surprised by the kitchen entrees though. Both the beef bulgogi and beef udon had A LOT of flavor. This is definitely a quality spot to satisfy your sushi cravings. What we ordered: * Curry w/ Grilled Beef * Jake's Salmon Roll * Spicy Scallop Ordinary Roll * Dinner Combo w/ Beef Bulgogi & CA Rolls * Beef Udon

    I visited Anika's last night. It was a little busy at first, but we were able to grab a booth right away, which was a great start. We ordered the Volcano Roll, Mango Crunch Roll, and Instagram Roll. The Mango Crunch Roll was definitely my favorite. It had a nice kick, so if you like spicy food, this one is a must-try. The Volcano and Instagram rolls were both really good too. We also tried the Fremont Fire Roll, which came out literally on fire. The presentation was cool and definitely eye-catching, but the flavor didn't quite live up to the hype. I was expecting more given how dramatic it looked. Overall, it was a really good experience. One thing that stood out was that by around 8 PM, the restaurant had completely cleared out, which felt a little unusual. Also, I remember they used to serve a crunchy appetizer before the meal, but we didn't get that this time. Not sure if they stopped doing that. Still, solid spot and I'd definitely come back, especially for that Mango Crunch Roll.

    Aniki's Sushi is an underrated spot for delicious and fresh sushi that's affordable. I really like how generous their portions and sashimi sizes were while being fresh and high-quality. My favorites are definitely the Jake's Salmon rolls and Lunch Sashimi. Interiors is spacious and staff was friendly and attentive

    Came in on a Saturday evening and luckily there was no wait. There's a good amount of tables inside. It was a bit hot and stuffy when we went, despite it being low 70s. My husband and I ordered a few rolls. He got the Fremont fire and warrior roll. He definitely preferred the Fremont fire, which came out on fire and was loaded with shrimp tempura, crab meat, and spicy tuna inside. I got the lion king and spider man roll. Personally was not a fan of the spider man roll as it was huge and difficult to eat. Also, just didn't taste as good compared to lion king. The roll sizes are big though and I thought it was worth the price. The menu is huge with a bunch of sushi rolls, fresh sushi/sashimi, entree items, etc. Definitely liked the variety so will be back to check out the other items. Hoping to try their lunch special as they had a lot of options for good prices, especially their bentos. The service was good and food came out fairly quickly. Overall, nice sushi spot in a convenient plaza with plenty of parking. Will be back!

    My mom and I wanted to go this one Japanese restaurant but parking is too full and decided to turn around to go to this one instead. I've been here before but that's been years since I last visited. This is a surprising experience because I didn't expect a place to be almost empty on a Saturday afternoon. The place looks nice though. I really like the art and decorations here. Also, it's not humid here since they probably use AC. We wanted to order 9pc sashimi but didn't eat other items that come with it since we ordered our own lunch specials. It's just too many food. From our lunch specials, they not only come with rice and a side but other items like tofu. That's unusual for a Japanese restaurant to serve but it adds a unique touch. The food is actually good though, but I believe that the representations of our meals should improve a bit since they kinda look like something you can get from a grocery at the hot meals section. Also, the lunch plates are too big that we can't fit everything. Therefore, we decided to ask the staff to remove anything that comes with a sashimi.

    This is a friend's favorite sushi spot in east bay and we had to try it! Our group ordered 3 dinner combos - 2 teriyaki salmon and 1 chicken katsu along with a special roll. The portion sizes were generous for all. The salmon teriyaki was grilled and seasoned very well. The combos came with 4 pieces of tuna roll which was nice. The salad, miso soup completed the meal. We wanted to cut a friend's birthday cake to celebrate and the staff were okay with that. They were super sweet and provided us with a knife and tray to help with the cake cutting. The ambience is casual and the place is super clean. Would recommend checking them out if you're in the area craving some sushi!

    Spacious, Good service, variety menu and affordable. The fish is good quality, melts in your mouth, and thick cuts What we ordered: - Jake's Salmon - love salmon . Lunch Special Sashimi (chef choice) 12 pc . Fremont Flower - tuna outside, classic . House Special Roll - saucy, tempura outside, flavorful . See Through - wrapped in rice paper, can taste more of the flavors with this one

    Their rolls here are HUGE, definitely good value for the price. I came around lunch on a weekday, and they were able to accommodate our party of 4 strollers easily. Staff were kind and helpful. - Enter the dragon (4/5) - their version of a dragon roll, was pretty good - Heavanly Chris (5/5) - not spicy at all, I really loved the taste of this one and would highly recommend - Ultimate KO (4/5) - has one chile pepper on the menu, but not spicy at all, just a little mild kick. We also got tempura and edamame for the table, both were yummy

    We had a late lunch at Aniki's. We had the following: Golden State Sushi - Crab, shrimp tempura, salmon, unagi Hamachi Lover - Yellowtail fish with avocado Exceptional flavors! Their tempura only has 1 shrimp and big portions of diff veggies. I liked their crispy tempura flakes with cucumber and dressing appetizer. Generous portions, we had leftover sushi to go. Lovely service and great find!

    Three stars because fish was totally NOT fresh and additionally you cannot customize your order online unless you call them... on top of artificial wasabi. I appreciate the 2 chopsticks and 3 packs of brand name shoyu! Sushi rice was well done; not too sticky and fell apart nicely/palatable. Love the array of rolls available. Bento boxes are lackluster selection wise... wish I could pick tonkatsu (pork based since I don't consume poultry) but I can't. What the heck. Plus bentos are pricer from what you get (2 choices) in comparison to others in the area. Server was super friendly and had a nice smile! And quickly knew me by name (yes reasonably I was the only one who ordered online at that time...). Went during peak hours and there were only two tables dining in. Located within the new dollar tree and mega mart plaza. Therefore lots of parking for you to pick from. However, do not follow Google maps if you are coming from the Washington blvd direction because it directs you to the back lot... ughhh.

    Sushi, bento, curry, or noodles - Aniki's Sushi has it all! Despite their vast menu, the quality of their dishes is still exceptional and for a fair price. We came in on a weekend lunch but it was easy to find a spot in the shared parking lot and quick to get seated at a booth. The every wall of the room is decorated by custom artwork from what I would presume is a local artist. The colors and designs really brighten up the place and add a bit of character. As we sat down, the staff handed out a number of menus and waters with lemon slices. Their menu covers quite a spread of items that are sure to satisfy your craving for anything Japanese. If you're looking for something cold, you'll have plenty of options with their nigiri, rolls, and sashimi. If your stomach is needing something hot, you'll have baked rolls, grilled fish, ramen/udon noodles, curry and rice, and teriyaki bowls. For a complete meal, their bentos and combos are great. They typically include a salad, soup, rice, a hearty entree, and a side of your choice among nigiri/sashimi/roll, tempera, and gyoza. Their kids menu for kids 10 years and younger is also very good value! Tonkatsu - crispy and tender cuts of chicken thigh destined to be dipped in the thick, tangy and flavorful sauce and gobbled with the generous serving of rice. A good number of pieces of chicken on a bed of cabbage! Saba shioyaki - grilled mackerel with the traditional salting method is an excellent protein-rich entree with healthy fats. The natural flavors come out best this way and taste great by itself or with the side or rice. Enter the dragon roll - each one of these morsels was packed with protein (eel and shrimp) as well as the other fixings like avocado and imitation crab. We ordered the combo and it came with a miso soup and a side of three pieces of nigiri. Shareable and filling! Gyoza - crispy and meaty! Dunk them in the dipping sauce! Came with four pieces in the kid bento. California roll - big pieces and huge chunks of avocado! Yum! Came with six pieces in the kid bento. Tuna roll - hearty and refreshing bite full of about half tuna and half avocado in the center. Great balance. Came with six pieces in the combo. Nigiri - good portion of fish on top of equally fair portion of rice. Had red snapper, tuna, and salmon. The food came out pretty quick and everything was photo-worthy, and we couldn't wait to dig in. They noticed the kids had a bit of trouble with the chopsticks and came out with some chopstick holders that helped them use them like tongs. Very proactive on that front, however, we did have to specifically ask for wasabi/ginger despite us having raw fish in our meal (I would have expected this to be included with the nigiri). Overall, Aniki's Sushi has it all and seems to have great consistency in food quality, freshness, presentation and taste. We didn't get to try everything but this visit definitely left a good impression and we will probably be back to try the other goodies. With their combos and kid menu, you'll get a bargain for great food that will feed the whole family. With their immense list of rolls, Aniki's may rival similar sushi spots around here and they may benefit from a rewards system like their competitors. Although they don't seem to get much foot traffic, their central location will surely be a convenient spot for those looking to hop in for a quick lunch or a nice dinner spread (just keep in mind of their break between lunch and dinner service). Sushi is certainly a highlight here, but Aniki's has plenty more to offer!

    Definitely surprised by the amount of change that's happened with the acquisition. Quality isn't the same.

    Came here during a family gathering and left super happy and full! Their menu for the AYCE had so…read moremany options. They had a lot of different rolls, appetizers, fried items, nigiri, hand rolls, etc.. My family's favorites for the appetizers for the poke salad, takoyaki, seaweed salad, and even the udon (loved their broth). However, I usually come here for the fresh fish such as the carpaccios and the nigiris. Their quality is super fresh! My personal favorites for the nigiris were the saba, hamachi, and yuzu salmon. Their fish to rice ratio was perfect since it was on the smaller side. The food also comes out pretty fast! Service was excellent. Since I came with a bigger party, my family needed help several times and the servers were really friendly, nice, and fast. They also kept refilling our drinks and bringing us napkins without us asking. Overall, the price was definitely reasonable (and super worth). Fish quality was fresh and tasty. I would definitely be coming back again and I highly recommend this place for people who like AYCE sushi.

    We are always looking for good AYCE sushi spots. This spot popped up on my insta feed when I was…read morepregnant and I finally got the chance to check it out now that my kids are almost 2 years old :P Rating Breakdown: 1/2 Stars for Taste -- We are a nigiri-focused crew and they have a pretty good selection here. They don't overload on the rice, which is a plus. We also ordered our way through the rolls, but for us, these pretty much taste the same after a while. It's nice that they have a lot of cooked options for the kids. Overall, I would say everything is rather forgettable. 0.5/1 Stars for Customer Service -- The servers were super nice but the major downside to this place is the wait. The restaurant wasn't even full on a Saturday for lunch but there was SO much down time between rounds. My kiddos could not sit still so my husband and I would take turns taking them outside to get their zoomies out. We would come back after 10 minutes or so and the next round still wasn't out yet. I don't know if it was because we were a big party placing large orders and they were waiting to complete the platters before bringing them out. It got to the point where we weren't sure if orders were missing or still being made. There was literally no food on the table. My husband and I ended up giving up and leaving before we had eaten our fill because the kiddos had reached the end of their (and our) patience. 0.5/1 Stars for Value -- It's $40pp before taxes/tip for the premium menu on the weekends, which isn't bad, but you can get a way better experience for a few dollars more at local competitors like Hinata or Ultra Sushi. No bonus star because, even though there is virtually no wait for a table and this place is very conveniently located, we probably would give this place a skip unless we are craving rolls specifically and have a lot of time on our hands (and no kids).
