    Sample dish (delicious)

    Kyoto Sushi is our favorite sushi restaurant in Ventura county!! The warm and friendly service, the authentic and fresh flavors of everything...It's almost therapeutic. Odd to say perhaps but this is true for my friend and I. Everything is consistent; Food quality - always fresh in flavor restaurant, customer service is consistently wonderful. You can tell they genuinely care about their customers. The ambiance is inviting, perfect for an enjoyable meal and there's always great music playing. Plus it's always clean. Now, for the best part: the food. The cuisine is authentic and absolutely delicious. We order different sushi rolls and each one is a work of art--fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. Even the basic rolls...not art but outstanding flavor and quality. If you like RAMEN....please try the seafood ramen here. My goodness, it's so good. I cannot recommend Kyoto Sushi enough. If you're in Ventura and craving authentic Japanese food in a clean, welcoming environment with incredible service, this is the place to go. We will definitely be back!!

    Stopped here for lunch to grab a quick bite to eat, they had the lunch special and the food was great, customer service was good and our food came out fast and warm, everything tasted delicious, the spot is cute and smallish, the decor is a vibe and was not Super busy has a good Ambiance to it

    California Roll, Abc Roll and Volcano Special Roll

    Amazing food, super fresh and delicious! Everything has great flavor. Everything I've tried from here has been amazing. Highly recommend!

    This sushi place is fire. The food is sooo good, 10/10 recommend.

    The food at this sushi place is honestly so good. Every time I come here, the flavors are fresh, the rolls are perfect, and everything tastes way better than most places I've tried. I really recommend it if you're craving sushi or just want something delicious and satisfying. The service is great, the vibe is nice, and the whole experience just makes you want to come back again. It's one of those spots where you take one bite and immediately know you made the right choice. If you haven't tried it yet, you definitely should -- it's sooo good.

    We were welcome as we entered the restaurant and seated right away. The restaurant is very clean and small. The menu has lots to choose from. The food was very delicious. I believe we just found a new favorite. We will be back.

    Hot tea

    The ambiance was very calm, warm, and friendly. The service was great! Our waitress was really sweet. The chef gave us 2 complimentary Gyoza, and they were absolutely, without a doubt, the best gyoza I've ever had. The crisp was insane, and the flavor was bursting! A wonderful surprise. We also got hot tea, which was and always is great and starts the meal off. I ordered a miso soup as I always like to see how good their soup is, it kinda sets the tone of the meal for me. It had tons of flavor, and felt like a hug to my stomach. My spouse ordered the Red Blossom Roll, she loved the roll and said it was very balanced with the salmon and tuna, and it had really good flavor, it was very fresh. Simple and delicious. I ordered the Las Vegas roll and really enjoyed it as well. The fry wasn't too heavy, and it didn't feel overly filling, it was the perfect balance of sweet, crunchy, salty, savory. We then shared the Calliand Roll, that was special! I have never tried anything like it. Sweet, but delicious, that melted cream cheese was just divine! We just moved to town and were starting our sushi spot search, but I don't feel we need to search anymore. It was 10/10 for us, we will be back, and often! Check them out if you're in the neighborhood, it's a small but mighty place!

    Fried Gyoza and delicious hot tea! Check out that little kettle and that tea cup! Love it!

    I've been here twice and I really love it. Their hot tea is delicious! It's like that gunpowder green tea - the flavor is POW! Delicious. I also love their Korean Ramen. It's pure comfort food. Their fried gyoza is perfect! For me it's little things... that make this place 5 stars. The music is great. Big speaker near the door that plays a great mix of music. Custom, not a radio station but a nice play list. The bathrooms are clean. The tables are roomy and seats are comfortable. Customer service is the best! The food is ALWAYS tasty! Lots of regular customers that always return! Ambience is great. Cozy, friendly, you feel welcomed. I really feel happy here. Definitely need that in our rush-rush world of fast food chains. It was raining.... The music was romantic and lovely. Definitely needed this little retreat in my life today. Thank you Shawn (or is it Sean?) for your great cooking and great service! Just love Kyoto Sushi!

    Food is amazing! Definitely a hidden gem on the East side Ventura. Service was great too! Clarisse was my server and she gave me extraordinary service. So friendly and on point!

    Is this place all you can eat?

    No. But you get a lot of food.

    Do they still offer all you can eat? If so, how much is it?

    Wow! Yesterday was the first time my boyfriend and I dined in at Kuu Sushi. Previously, I had…read moreordered takeout / doordash 2x. Each time, the takeout was great. Fish was fresh and everything was packaged neatly. I didn't think it could get much better than that but was I wrong! We dined in yesterday to watch the game, sat at the sushi bar. We were seated promptly. All staff was kind and attentive. We ordered 4 rolls and spicy edamame. Each roll was delicious and what a difference it made it have the sauces added by the sushi chefs. We loved the spicy rolls. They even have kraft beer from Japan outside of Asahi and Sapporo. We had a great experience at Kuu and can't wait to return.

    I decided to come here with family after many people recommending this place. I'm not sure why. Not…read moreimpressed and I don't know what's the hype about this place. We went on a Saturday around 8 pm and it happened that they have happy hour. Not impressive either. It was 4 adults, 1 child and 1 baby in stroller . ONLY 4 adults ate. But somehow they charged 20% gratuity! What? Why? Because you're taking seats. Never heard of such a thing. Anyways this won't happen again as we won't be returning here Let's start since we got there. Saturday night at 8 pm. 2 of us for raw sushi and the other two don't like raw so they had Yakisoba and chicken teriyaki. So the sushi came first and we finished our food and the Yakisoba and chicken teriyaki is still not here. We had 4 different servers come asking for things and orders and one of them asked if we got the bill when we hadn't even gotten our food. Not to mention when we asked for straws. It was thrown on the table which is also unacceptable. Finally the hot food came and we decided we wanted more raw sushi and here comes another 25 minutes and still nothing. When the bill came and I saw we were charged for gratuity, I didn't like that because first of all, service was horrible, we didn't get to enjoy the meal together we kept looking to see if our food is coming. Then cherry on top, you would think the owner would try to make it better. No, it was even worse. Yea because you were taking seats. I said there is a kid in stroller and another kid who can't eat sushi. If you have kids, don't bring them because they'll charge you for the seat! The 2 stars is for the chaos roll and salmon sashimi. Everything else was NOT worth it Ridiculous and won't be returning

There are multiple Teppan stations on one side of the restaurant and the other side is set up for sushi dining. We arrived 15 minutes before they opened and started seating. We were seated very promptly at 4:30 by a very friendly hostess. We were surprised to see the restaurant at least in the Tappan area full by 5 o'clock. That's always a good sign. You want to eat at a busy restaurant. The Teppanyaki menu has you choose your proteins, steak, chicken, shrimp, scallops, lobster, fish. Then It starts with soup, we ordered both the onion and the miso to try both. Our consensus was the miso was better. The miso must be traditional as that is what we have always been served at other Teppanese restaurants. Next is a little green salad with the house dressing. I swear the miso soup and the house salad seem to be the same in every Teppanese restaurant. Then the show begins. We all chose the upgrade to fried rice then the grilled vegetables each entre comes with three grilled shrimp. It's an appetizer. Always keep in mind with Teppanese they grill and put these things on your plate one at a time. Do not wait for everything to be cooked before starting or the rice and the vegetables are going to be cold by the time you get your protein. They brought the birthday girl a nice chocolate sundae with a candle and took a picture that they delivered to us. All in all a fantastic evening. Thank you to all the staff at O-sabi

    I have no idea how I have missed reviewing this spot…read more We go to and work at the California Strawberry Festival every year coming from Mesa, AZ. It used to be in Oxnard, and we had a tradition of a group of us going out on the Saturday night of the two-day festival. It then moved to Ventura so it could use the county fairgrounds and be a larger gathering of people at the annual event. Since it moved, we decided to find a new place to eat. Originally, we picked out about three different places, from Yelp, of course. Drove to the first two and they were crowded with limited to no parking. So, we all ended up at Sushi Fresh and have not looked back. Great staff inside. Greeted and felt welcome from the start, we now look forward to returning and seeing the same smiling faces each visit. You know it is a terrific place when the staff does not have high turnover. The food is fantastic. The sushi rolls, edamame, etc. are wonderful but the best part is how many items they have that are not sushi, in case you come in with a group of diverse eaters. Personally, I go for the dinner box - pick any two entrees and it comes with rice, soup, salad, and your choices. I usually get a teriyaki chicken and a sesame chicken, but this time went with the teriyaki and a Mexican Roll. Loved it. Already looking forward to our next visit, next year. Highly recommend this place to friends and family year-round even though we get in just once a year. Totally worth it.

She recommended this place as one of her favorites in town. When we arrived the host greeted us with a warm welcome and sat us down. When it came time to order I tried to order a Tiger Roll, remember I am a newbie. He wasn't aware of that but was real cool about it and didn't make me feel ignorant. He made other suggestions and we decided on three rolls (Crazy, Dragon, Snow) and they were all good. I really enjoyed the eel sauce on the Crazy(?) roll and I believe the Dragon roll was very close to the Tiger rolls I have been ordering. Again I have no idea what I am doing so I may have mixed up the names of the rolls. The place was very clean and cold which was very pleasant and relaxing. The host/server was also very attentive and nice. We already have plans to return and try more rolls. Hopefully, I'll see some of you there.
