Bay Sushi may not be the trendiest place...but it doesn't need to be. The food is delicious and thoughtfully prepared and presented.With an amazing variety of sushi,sashimi and maki choices...you'll most definitely find something to your liking. I recently tried the Bluefin tuna....and OMG....tastebud heaven...like butter melting in your mouth... The staff is so polite and knowledgeable.I'll definitely keep returning to Bay Sushi. read more

TLDR: Excellent service. Food was good as well! There is friendly staff... and then there's Bay Sushi staff! This has never happened to me before, and they truly TRULY went above and beyond. I was here by myself, and only my phone to keep me company. I was watching my Youtube, with the phone propped against my water glass. The lady comes by with a small black iron stand. At first, I thought this was some accessory for the sushi I ordered, but no... it was for my phone! I was and AM so touched by that! No one ever thoughtfully looked over and kind enough to lend me their phone stand. That's an instant 5 star service, right there. Luckily the food was great too! I ordered the Oyako Don. My first taste of Oyako Don was 25 years ago. That one was still the best I ever had. This one was good. The sauce was a little bit more watery than I would have liked. One interesting twist... cucumber slices. I don't really like them, but I can see how they might add freshness to the dish. So if you like them, give this a shot! I also ordered the No Name sushi. Loved it. Baked salmon! The BEST salmon. So buttery and soft. It's wrapped around a california roll. So basically almost a Lion King. It's not too big either (which might be a bad thing), but I liked it because it was JUST enough for one person. But the star was the service. Aside from the awesome phone stand, they were always smiling, refilling my water, just very attentive and friendly. Great great place. HIGHLY recommend. read more

I didn't expect too much from a strip mall sushi joint, but when I entered, I was greeted by a very nice woman owner. Her husband was the sushi chef and her daughter (I believe) was also helping run the restaurant. The Uni and Toro were excellent. I had to get a second round. Overall I thought the fish quality was very good. Dan ambience was fairly standard but very clean and welcoming. I would definitely go back at another point to try more of the options they had on the menu. read more

My partner and I had our first date here so decided to come back on our anniversary. I've been back for take out, but my partner has not been back since our first date, so it was a nice trip down memory lane. Bay Sushi shares a large parking lot with a lot of stores so parking is pretty easy to find. There's only a few tables, but we were seated right away. My partner ordered the bay dinner boat special on our first date and forced himself to eat the entire thing. This time around, we ordered it to share. It comes with miso soup, salad, rice, california roll, 5 piece nigiri, and beef or chicken teriyaki. It was definitely a good portion for two people to split. Service is always lovely, the servers are super nice and food comes out quick. Great mom and pop shop, will definitely be coming back. read more

How come I never came before?! Such a hidden gem. First was the delicate decor that attended to details. The plants at the front and general wooden feel gave me the Japan vibe, strongly enforced by Japanese pop music. We sampled tempura and special sushis (instead of traditional nigiri and maki) and found them excellent. Fried oysters were crunchy outside and juicy inside. Made perfectly with good oysters. Spider roll's soft-shell crab was a bit over-shadowed. Caterpillar roll was so cutely made. After biting down, the avocado and unagi and crab were such great combination. There will be next time and we will test their traditional raw fares. read more

So far this is my favorite sushi place. The service is great the ladies are so kind and friendly. The fish is 10/10 it just melts in your mouth. Place is very nice and clean. The hollenback roll is really delicious, and salmon is great. The texture of the tofu appetizer was magnificent. Will definitely keep coming back. read more

This place is incredible. Can't beat the experience, the staff, or the quality. We love trying the specials, and also getting our regulars like their excellent miso soup, veggie tempura, and perusing their nice selection of sakes and beers. The bluefin toro is a standout treat that will haunt your dreams. We'd eat there every day if we could. read more

We love this little sushi place! It's nestled in the small shopping center with plenty of parking. It can be pretty crowded during the busy times. The ambiance is quaint. They do take out and sit down too. They have a generous selection of different dishes as well as specials. We love the udon noodle dishes too especially during cold weather! Service is great as well. Sometimes they give out complimentary cookies or treats for the kids which is a nice touch :) the people working there are always super kind and friendly. I give it 4.5 stars as the portions can be a bit on the smaller side so family style is the way to go. Highly recommend if you are in the area and are craving a nice sushi meal! read more

Pros: Food quality, customer service, and catering and large parking lot Cons: Not knocking off any stars for this, but if you want to go early for the first seating, the place is very small. So just be prepared for a wait if you arrive at opening and there is already a line. read more

3.5 stars The food was good, I ordered for pick up. The price point was okay, but there are other sushi joints with slightly cheaper prices and still good sushi. The rolls are around $18 on average, bentos meals over $20. The wait wasn't long and the service was casual. I had called in and came to pick up my order. Portion wise - I expected more in the bentos, again due to comparison to other joints like Happy Sushi. I think it's a solid choice for sushi in the area, none of the rolls tasted bad. I wouldn't make it a usual joint for me to visit and order from, but it was nice to experience when I was craving sushi and in the area. read more

Have been at this place a few times. Good sushi, good service, good price. Highly recommend.

Came by for lunch the other day and it was a decent experience. Bay Sushi is a Korean-owned sushi restaurant featuring Korean staff and a Gen Z waiter wearing a mask. Service was on par with a small mom and pop shop with no silly credit card, health mandate, or mandatory service charges like in SF. Started off with the soft shell crab and it was lightly fried and served with a side of soy sauce. The shrimp tempura appetizer came with some tempura vegetables along with a dipping sauce too. These were lightly fried and tasty. The dragon roll was good, and a thinner version with shrimp tempura and unagi on the inside and avocado on the ouside. The restaurant is air conditioned to a warm 78F. ~$28/head after tax and gratuity for lunch read more

Great place to get a no frills sushi fix! I've found that good sushi in the Cupertino/Sunnyvale area is hard to come by, so this discovery was a pleasant surprise. I got takeout from them. Parking: Easy and plentiful--in a strip mall. Service: I had friendly service Food: The rolls were quite good! The California roll seemed to be real crab which is more and more rare these days! Overall, I would recommend if you're in the Sunnyvale area and are looking for an easy sushi place. It's by no means luxury, but it does the job! Would definitely go back again. read more

I'm no sushi head but this place was really good. The dragon roll was excellent, and the miso soup was a perfect side. Great service, great spot! read more

Over the years, I've been going to this particular sushi restaurant I've always enjoyed my experience! There was a new server, a lady that waited on my family and I tonight, and she was very sweet and helpful. I'm allergic to MSG/monosodium glutamate so sadly I cannot have any sushi with their sauces on the rolls..... yet this particular restaurant is always accommodating and helpful with putting sauces on the side or letting me know what items are prepared, or potentially meats are marinated in beforehand. This particular night I wasn't too hungry, so I just ordered the Gigante roll, which was delicious and fresh with roe fried salmon! I got my classic favorite Hollenbeck roll also and that one's deep-fried as well. Lol anything fried is better! Lol. Since it's summer, my mom and I thought we would have some thing light and not too heavy to eat. Lol she ended up ordering four different rolls because she couldn't decide which ones to eat. Lol as we played catch-up, the server came and let us know that they closed at 8:30 PM. Lol we had no idea it was so bright outside. We thought it was around 7 PM! It was actually 8:35 PM! We both felt Slightly embarrassed because we didn't know they were closing and I hope we didn't keep them from shutting down sooner. Lol I will definitely be back here after year and for more sushi rolls! Hee read more

Best sushi restaurant I've been to in this area! Food was delicious and ingredients were fresh, with exquisite presentation and close attention to detail. The avocado in every set of rolls was perfect -- creamy, but not too mushy. The agedashi tofu was yummy and adorned with beautiful, matchstick-cut radish, and the unagi rolls were arranged in the shape of a flower. Looked like something out of Instagram. Servers were so friendly and attentive -- Made me feel less like I was eating at a restaurant and more like I was at my aunt's house, being loved with food. And the restaurant had a lovely ambience -- The front is adorned with rows of beautiful plants, and the tables were always full, but the place never felt too loud or chaotic. read more

Under new management, it is really good! Definitely a hidden gem, I would recommend seafood salad and Agedashi tofu! You can tell they have put a lot of effort into the new menu and items :) read more

Absolutely delicious, fresh sushi and sashimi. Very clean tasting fish and every dish we ordered was carefully thought out. Service is attentive and so warm. You can tell the owners care immensely about the quality of their fish/food. The ambiance was very comforting and homely. Loved everything about this restaurant and will most definitely come back! read more

Very good food and service. Hamachi Kama, Agadashi Tofu, and Chirashi were all very delicious. Sashimi is good quality and fresh! We'll definitely come back again! read more

The cutest sushi shop ever. Interior is clean and cozy. I got the chirashi bowl and it had the freshest tuna of any sushi place in the area. Really loved my experience read more

Cozy sushi place with warm service. They have pretty unique sushi rolls! The North & South roll was deep fried and served Agedashi style. Everything was cooked in this one, so I'd recommend this for people who don't prefer raw fish. The Red Dragon roll was solid when you're craving American style sushi. I'd love to come back and try more! read more

Bay Sushi has been one of my favorite sushi spots for the longest time. The freshness, authenticity, and exceptional service set it apart. I've learned my lesson--never again will I gamble on a random sushi place because, compared to Bay Sushi, nothing else comes close. I truly appreciate the integrity and authenticity in how this restaurant is run. If you're looking for the best sushi experience, Bay Sushi comes highly recommended! read more

I dropped by Bay Sushi around 5pm on a Wednesday. The place wasn't busy at all, but the to-go orders were popping off. All I really wanted was izakaya, so I checked on their menu to see if they have a few of my favorites. I saw that they had my favorites and decided to give the place a try. I got agedashi tofu, soft shell crab, and saba nigiri. The agedashi tofu and soft shell crab were hits. Both were nicely fried. I loved the piled on bonito flakes on the tofu. Interestingly the soft shell crab came out with a side of sweet and sour sauce, which was different than I'm used to. I typically have it with some type of tempura sauce, but the sweet and sour sauce was a nice change. The saba was alright, and I thought the texture was off. It almost tasted slightly cooked rather than raw. As for how the cooked food goes, I would likely stick to those for next time. Lastly, customer service was excellent. I was only one of two parties in the restaurant, but hey, the service was so fast. My server was also the sweetest lady! read more

This place is pretty good for the price. They have a variety of rolls to choose from, and ladies working there are so nice and friendly. We got the calamari, french kiss, and little dragon. Highly recommend French kiss - the omelette wrapped outside of the roll is very soft and well seasoned - 8/10 read more

Went here on a Monday evening for dinner with my partner and was not disappointed! The sushi rolls have large portions of fish in them. They tasted fresh and were filling. The star was the Hamachi, the fish was super fresh and yummy. For the price, it was a great deal! Three specialty rolls, two pieces of Hamachi, two pieces of Maguro, two large beers and tofu all for $100 (tip included). The dining space is small but I did not feel too close to the table next to us. I will definitely be coming here again and recommending to others :) read more

This is my family's go-to sushi place, it's super close by and the service is friendly and food delicious! I love the two item bento, it's a large portion of food and you can choose from quite a few different items. Their rolls are good as well, and they're always willing to omit any ingredients/toppings that might not be your favorite. Cozy spot with decent seating, we usually get takeout though. read more

I came here during a weekday lunch, and was pleasantly surprised at the prices. The bento price is the lowest I've seen in South Bay around $14 (the portions are a little smaller as well but still filling). The food is also excellent, though I wish the bento box sashimi selection was salmon instead of tuna (salmon is my favorite). Even though it was busy, we didn't have to wait long for our food. Everything was nicely paced. It is definitely a small local place, as there was just one waitress serving everyone. Even though she was busy and didn't have time to check in with tables, you can tell she is still very attentive as when I got up to look for the bathroom, she immediately paid attention to me and gave me instructions, and also when we wanted to get boxes and the check, she was very quick to help us. The sushi chef also seemed nice and let us know to pick our table when we first walked in. read more

Dear Bay Sushi, I hope this letter finds you well. My mom and I love sushi, and we go about once a month to get the yummy fish. Since I moved into Sunnyvale, this place has been one of my go-to sushi restaurants, and the quality of your food has never disappointed. However, I enjoy restaurants that have cool decorations and have care and love ingrained into their restaurant. A considerable number of restaurants are not like that and don't give off good vibes. Bay Sushi is not one of those restaurants. However, it would benefit more if they added a couple of items such as chairs and lanterns around the restaurant to enhance the experience of the customer. While I love the effort you put into your sushi and overall restaurant, some parts of it could have more . In my last visit to your restaurant, the sushi was excellent as it always is, but I feel like the wall on the right side of your restaurant lacks decor. Only the left wall has lights and it feels inconsistent. Both walls should have lights on the side because only one wall has lights. Another option to improve the restaurant is that you should invest in a TV and put it where the clock is because a television is better than a fancy clock. If Bay Sushi could do even one of my suggestions, I promise it would benefit greatly! Even though Bay Sushi may not be the fanciest restaurant in Sunnyvale, I sure think that it could at least be one of the best because great sushi paired with great style can only mean great things! Please consider adding more decor and a television to your restaurant because you won't regret it! Thank you so much for reading my letter, and I hope to hear back from you. Sincerely, Benji Knowles read more

Moved back to the area and was excited to see this old favorite still in business! Wonderfully fresh sushi and try the Hollenbeck roll for an amazing specialty favorite. read more

really cute little place, fresh fish and interesting rolls! the fish tasted really good!

I've visted a lot of sushi places, and this has by far been the best one. It's my favorite, the food absolutely delicious it taste so fresh and has so much flavor there is no need to add anything. The service is also amazing every server I've encountered has been so nice and welcoming. Everything I've tried is so delicious. Everyone should ditch there sushi spots and come here!!! The owners have plants all over the restaurant they add such a wonderfull addition to their ambiance. Today Katie served us and she was execptional. read more

The people here are all super friendly and the sushi is very good and reasonably priced. I have only ordered takeout but from what I can tell the ambience is great as well, very clean and quiet whenever I've gone inside. read more

We were really surprised that this place had an average star review of 4 because everything we had was not so great. I'd say maybe we ordered the 'wrong' things.. but we ordered a lot! I feel bad leaving a 2 star since the server was very nice, but it really was one of the worst Japanese food I've had in the area. We had a Tonkotsu Ramen and the broth tasted like water, perhaps a bit saltier than water. It was like 5-10% of the flavoring that other ramen places in the area have! It was so bad. We ordered a few sushi. I tend to judge a place by the quality of the California roll, and the CA roll needed more flavor and creaminess. The crazy roll (tuna, salmon and Hamachi), didn't taste that fresh. The French Kiss was the only one of the three rolls that was pretty good- it has unagi and soft shell crab in it, and is wrapped in a thin "omelet" which is unique; though you can't really appreciate the soft shell crab in it. Pros were that there was no wait, it was quiet, food came out fast, and the server was nice. read more
