Food is always good service is great never have to wait long for food to arrive. My favorite is the Snow White roll soooo good also the Mountain Dew their bento boxes are great come hungry they have lots of food on them plus miso soup. read more

We had such an amazing experience at Bonsai Sushi in Redding! We went there on Thursday to celebrate my husband's birthday and ordered the 4 specials. everything was absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. The staff went above and beyond to make the night special. They surprised us with complimentary yogurt soju, a taro cake, and even sang happy birthday! The sushi chef and servers were so kind and fun they even came out to share a shot with my husband after singing to him, which made the whole experience feel like we were just celebrating with friends and family. It's rare to find a place that combines great food, warm hospitality, and such a personal touch. We left with full hearts (and stomachs!). We'll definitely love coming to bonsai Everytime we come we are surprised. Will be back soon. thank you, Bonsai Sushi, for making his birthday unforgettable! read more

Ordered a few different rolls (to go) ; churn creek, bonsai, Maui, and California roll. When I called they were very friendly. I waited about 40-45 minutes for my order after calling in. Rolls were good and quite big. Appreciated how the order came with chopsticks and sauce. read more

This time Yelp reviews were way wrong. We were visiting our son and DIL and wanted to treat them to a good sushi dinner. My son said, "mom, this is Redding, not the Central Coast". So I went to Yelp and read reviews for every sushi restaurant in the area. Bonsai Sushi seemed like the place to go according to the reviews. Boy was I wrong!! Service was awful. We had to practically tackle our server every time she walked by because she zoomed past so quickly. We were missing chopsticks, forks, napkins, straws, water, menus. Every time she stopped though, she'd only stay long enough for us to ask for one of the missing items. I ordered Nigiri sake. She handed me the bottle then left. When she zoomed past again, I asked for a glass to drink it from. She came back with a beer stein. Really? Now about the food. All but two of their special rolls have cream cheese in them. Their miso tasted like it came from a packet. The rice was not tender. My husband's Bento looked and tasted like a microwaved TV dinner. The tempura shrimp within the rolls were just about burnt. All of our dinners were practically inedible. We choked what we could down and left the rest. For service and food, I do not recommend this restaurant. read more

Bonsai sushi is a very decent Japanese sushi eatery in Redding. The ambiance has Japanese decor. The service was prompt, and our server was friendly and helpful. We ordered a variety of dishes, including spicy edamame for an appetizer. The sushi was made well. The sushi rice was not mushy or dry-hard. It was just right. The two sushi rolls we ordered were delicious. The dinner Bento boxes had combinations of teriyaki chicken, veggie and shrimp tempura. The dinner bento boxes were good. The tuna sashimi was frozen, not fresh. The sashimi was not firm, it was soft (frozen). But I still enjoyed having sashimi. Overall, Bonsai is a good Japanese eatery for sushi or Japanese foods such as teriyaki chicken/beef, tempura, etc. Give Bonsai Sushi Fusion a try if you're in Redding. read more

ate here on valentines day, food was amazing as well as service! Jenna was great

We were passing through Redding and wanted a light dinner that wouldn't sit heavy for the rest of our drive. We ordered 3 rolls: Spicy Tuna Mudslide Maui Zowie The rolls were OK. The big issue we had was that the two special rolls were soggy with thick, gooey sauces. We did our best to scrape off as much of that gelatinous mess as possible without forfeiting all of the tobiko. The portions were fantastic and flavor blends were great in theory bad but definitely not balanced. We won't be back. There are too many alternatives in Redding to try first. read more

Everything was delish. Service is always good. Went on June 15th. The chef that night did a great job.

Bonsai Sushi is the best sushi spot in our area, it is a small restaurant but they have great food, service and the price is not too bad. If you want great sushi this is the place to go you won't be sorry. read more

Disappointed to be leaving this review, legitimately considered one star, but after my last three visits I'm BARELY leaving two stars. I sat at the sushi bar all three times. I will not be going back again. First, Lee used to be very friendly to sushi bar guests, this is not the case anymore. He barely looked up, didn't talk - nothing. This was very off putting as that is part of the sushi bar experience. Second, the last three times I have been in I can smell the oil and it does not smell fresh, it smells old - like old old and does not smell good. Third, my server {male} had an absolutely massive hickey on his neck he seemed really proud of showing off. This was the 2nd time he's been my server I've seen him like this. Good for him, but it's really gross and not something I want to look at while I'm eating. Fourth, the rolls were not good - literally everything is tuna and/or has a jalapeno in it. The creativity has been lost here for some time and what I did get and eat was almost too big to put in my mouth and fell apart it just felt rushed and the quality has gone way down. Fifth, it was uncomfortably warm and has been the last several times I've been in. The carpets need a thorough cleaning. The restaurant overall feels uncomfortable, hot and doesn't smell good. Bummer, because I really used to love this place - not any more. read more

Other than the atmosphere in my opinion the food was not good at all, very off putting taste. We ordered a Bento box which was good, but when the sushi came, we both got a bit ill. We asked for daikon reddish, we got white reddish. The sushi all tasted like it was trying to be something different, like when you over spice something trying to make it better and it just turns out a garbled mesh of flavors ? Yeah.. it tastes like that. read more

Excellent sushi!! Always consistent and tastes fresh. Definitely a go to sushi spot or us .

I came in with a group of 6 on New Year's Day. Was a little busy, but the servers easily moved some tables around to make space for us! We got the spicy edamame, miso soup, and a couple of rolls to share. Loved the spicy edamame, Salmon nigiri and Butterfish/Escolar nigiri, and the Bonsai Roll, a recommendation by Michael, our server. Service was amazing and quick, and we had a great time eating here! A special shout out to Michael for the amazing and kind service to a rambunctious group like ourselves. Thank you! read more

Love everything! Fresh and presented on beautiful plate ware. The ambiance is quant and the husband & wife duo with their pleasant staff are always welcoming. Our go to spot for date nights in Redding! Quick and always leaving with yummy tummies. read more

We ordered chirashi and mountains dew roll for take out two separate times. The first time was good and we decided to order a second time. The second time was digusting. A few pieces of sashimi was very fishy and definitely not fresh. The sushi roll rice was mushy and soggy. My friend jokingly asked if that was the same food leftover from the first time we got it. I'm so disappointed. I thought I had found a decent sushi place in Redding but I do not want to take risks. read more

Excellent service! The fish was very fresh. Serving sizes were generous. Good filling to rice ratio. The restaurant seems to be a small hole in the wall and the ambiance was pretty standard for a sushi restaurant. Prices are fair. I have no complaints and I WILL be back! read more

Hands down the best sushi in Redding. My kids love it too. The Mountain Dew roll is my favorite

I recently dined at Bonsai Sushi, and I can't recommend it enough! I started with the perfect snow sake, which was smooth and balanced, setting the tone for an unforgettable meal. The sashimi combo was incredibly fresh, with each slice of fish practically melting in my mouth. The miso soup was warm and comforting, the salmon roll was flawlessly crafted, and the unagi nigiri was the best I've ever tasted - rich, tender, and bursting with flavor. To top it all off, the gentleman behind the bar was friendly and welcoming, creating a relaxed yet lively atmosphere that made the experience feel special. This meal was hands-down the best I've ever had at a sushi bar, and I'll definitely be back. Bonsai Sushi has won me over! The restaurant gave me a family owned vibe and after leaving im even tempted to go back tomorrow! read more

The rolls are huge and delicious! The service was great as well, very attentive I highly recommend going if you're ever in the area. read more

Our favorite sushi place in Redding! Great service, great food, and huge portions. The seafood is good quality, the tempura is crisp and light, the teriyaki isn't overly sweet or salty. It's a small, cozy little restaurant so the ambiance is great for a nice date. We actually ordered the Bonsai roll and a tuna roll to-go from them, and it was so good that we came back to have dinner there. A definite must! read more

Ordered sushi to go from this location last night and it was great - service was friendly, - everything I ordered was in the bag (always nice), - the customizations were correctly accomodated (no wasabi on nigiri) - plenty of chop sticks/soy sauce/ginger/wasabi provided, - food prepared within the time they told me - they were able to accomodate a beer to go (yay for loosened covid restrictions) And of course the fish was great! We ordered - salmon (sake) sashimi: great salmon - salmon nigiri: salmon was great and the rice perfectly done - sake maki role: see above =D - jasmine roll: very nice! - hamachi nigiri: wonderful this was my favorite! - edamame: be warned the edamame has a sesame and chili powder coating with a smokey flavor Will order from here in the future for sure. Thanks! read more
