New sushi place on the island! We were promptly greeted walking in, the busperson brought water quickly, and the wait staff was delightful. We ordered both a traditional Rainbow Roll as well as the chef's 880 Roll. Both were delicious! We'll be back soon! read more

The decorations here were very nice! In was a very nice environment and it made us feel very comfortable. The service was also great! The server was very nice and the food came out relatively quickly! The food was good, especially the sushi. If I ever come into town again, I will certainly stop by here again. read more

Finally. The long waited return of a Japanese restaurant at the corner of Broadway and Santa Clara. It's completely different inside and they moved things around so that it's more spacious and modern. I thought the food was excellent and the service was fine. Street parking is manageable. I look forward to eating here again. read more

We finally checked this place out last week. The old, beloved, Kamakura was closed about 11 years ago after a bad kitchen fire at night. The place was finally renovated and reopened about 6 months ago. It was about 47° out that night we went, and it was very cold inside. All the diners and workers were wearing coats, no heat was turned on. I wanted warm saki and ordered an 8oz one, and the server came over with a big bottle of cold saki, and before I could say anything, twisted off the cap and poured it in a chilled shot glass. I felt like it was too late to protest and just drank it. It turned out to be very expensive. Their miso soup was very tasty, better than most serve at other places. I think it was the yellow miso. Traditionally, red miso is used in the winter months, but nobody on the island seems to use it. My sushi piece was very good, and generous in size. My friend got beef teriyaki, which was tender, and pounded flat, but served cold, which she didn't appreciate. The gyoza dumplings were average. So, between the terrific food at Hashi Gawa and Jojimbo's, I don't know if I would eat here again. The previous owner, the elderly Faith, much beloved here, would serve diners a wee shot of plum wine after dinner. They continue the custom. The remodel is nice, but, very loud in there. read more

We got takeout first time we got an order from sushi Broadway. I had the chicken teriyaki. It was very good and Steve had the seafood udon which he said was really good so I'm happy I found another good Japanese restaurant. read more

Food, Service, and Ambiance were stellar. Portions were just right. Light and airy atmosphere and noise level low. read more

We ordered bento box 2 items lunch, the portions are very small. You can see through the sushi, the roll is very small. The service is fine. The place is new and clean. It's pricy. read more

Food: The food was amazing, it tasted really fresh, like they just got the fish, and yea, I was just really good. (And the plates that they give to you for the food are so adorable!) Service: The service was great, they had great timing for the food, menu, drinks, desert, and check. And you don't run out of water, because someone is always checking, which I think is good. Also, they check to see if you have your food, and if it's late, or someone forgot about it, they go and ask the chefs about it. (awesome!) Ambiance: The whole set up and building of Sushi Broadway is really amazing, and I think all the decorations and little details that they have inside and outside make the experience way more interesting and enjoyable to be there. Anywhere that you sit, you can get the whole experienc,a nod I think that this restaurant deserves a 10/5 star revie. Please never close, Sushi Broadway, and thank you so much for opening!! read more

I've had 2 great experiences at Sushi Broadway so far. The atmosphere is bright and airy, with spacious and comfortable tables and booths. The service is great & the staff are friendly, warm, and efficient. We tried a lot of their dishes and everything was great--especially the sashimi! They have a few dishes that I'd never had before & was so pleasantly surprised by--Tuna Tartar and Glenview. I keep craving the fried calamari (so perfectly salty!) and sauce they serve with it. Will definitely be returning! read more

I was excited when this sushi place -- formerly Kamakura Sushi--opened back up in my neighborhood! The food and sushi are pretty good, but when we go out to dinner we are also looking for good service and ambiance ...and that is really lacking here. First of all there are numbers taped onto the tables with packing tape? Really? The staff can't memorize the table numbers? It doesn't end there with the taping on the tables though. Once you place your order, they scotch tape your reciepts of all the food you ordered ONTO YOUR TABLE. Then, as they bring out the food you ordered they cross them out on the receipts with a pen. This happens with each item that is brought to your table, and when everything has been delivered THE CROSSED OUT RECEIPTS remain on your table. You feel like you're in some sort of cafeteria and all the staff were in training with all this sh*t taped to your table? Maybe they were in "traning" mode when we went and this will all go away. We'll try it again in a few weeks and see. read more

I stopped in for lunch with my daughter in the middle of the afternoon on a Saturday. Not busy but that's ok. It's not lunch time or dinner time. We ordered three rolls and they were all very good: Passion, Samurai, and rainbow. Service was very helpful in selecting the rolls and throughout the meal. Started with edamame while we waited a short time for the food and ended with a little plum wine. A very nice experience. read more

Happened to be in the neighborhood around lunch time so I came here. $20 before tax and tip for a bento box lunch- 4 piece sashimi and tempura. Came with rice, miso soup and salad. My overall impression was cheaper ingredients with minimal effort. A bit depressing to be honest. The restaurant itself was clean and nice enough. But the food was the definition of mid. read more

A lunch date with my kids on a Saturday, right after they opened for the day. None of us had been there before and I'd only heard one of my friends say they'd been there and liked it. So our minds are open! We order the edamame which is seasoned nicely and they brought the miso soup which was very good. I ordered a bento box lunch special with teriyaki chicken and chicken katsu. My son also ordered a bento box with teriyaki beef and chicken katsu. My daughter ordered two different sushi rolls. They bring out my kids meals first, and son says the meat is barely warm. I'm waiting waiting waiting and say eat your lunch guys! Don't wait for mine to come out. Finally it does, and same thing - chicken teriyaki is luke warm. Katsu is warmer but not piping hot. The salad dressing is super watery - oh the rice was good!!! Daughter says eh for both rolls, salmon was quite fishy. I forgot we also had some tempura veggies which were good but quite greasy. None of us finished our meal and none of us wanted a to go box. Very disappointing indeed, I wanted to love it but nope - probably my last visit there. And not super inexpensive either. The restaurant was NOT busy but somewhere the ambiance was lost or maybe never there to begin with. Server was a nice lady. read more

Nice to see this restaurant open again. The old Kamakura restaurant had been closed for so long, I wasn't sure anyone would give it a go. We went there for lunch. Made a mistake saying that the booth near the entrance would be fine. There's a bus stop just outside, and the door was propped open. Now I know why Faith always kept that door closed! It was like being at a bus terminal. We started with some sushi, one nigiri and a rock and roll. They were fine. We both ordered bento combos. I had the chicken teriyaki & tempura, while my wife got the salmon teriyaki & gyoza. The service was attentive, and we got our miso soup very quickly. It was normal. The salad was just lettuce with a too thin sesame dressing. A slice of tomato would've been nice. The chicken teriyaki was a bit pale (not char grilled), but tasted ok. The tempura shrimp was good, but as another reviewer noted, the veggies were burnt. Are the cooks trying to do a double fry?! Purposely MAKE charred tempura? Just say No. Best if cooked to order, but I've never tried running a Japanese restaurant . I'd also recommend adding onion and potato. My wife liked both of her choices, though the gyoza looked pale to me (more like pot stickers). Alameda is definitely a tough location for a Japanese restaurant, very competitive. I hope they can find something to make them stand out. read more

The fish melts in your mouth , the food is wonderful. The service is fantastic I left my credit card on the table and the waiter walked a couple of blocks to give it to me. It was a kind gesture. The place is roomy and comfortable and beautifully decorated. Totally recommend this restaurant it's awesome. read more

Service is 10/10. We visit a couple times a month. Food is tasty and prices are reasonable. Best sushi in the island.

Daughter wanted some japanese for dinner so we decided to try Sushi Broadway. The food was good and fresh. Great variety of options. Customer service was good. Will return to grub here. read more

I have been waiting years for this property to reopen. To learn that another Japanese restaurant was coming to our neighborhood in the same place where our family often dined was very exciting. I purposely have been waiting to allow this place to find there bearings before I visited. Last night I took my family to Sushi Broadway for dinner. I must say I was pleasantly surprised at the level of service along with quality and quantity of food received. I had the 3 item bento with karaage, beef teriyaki and Tekka Maki. We also ordered a few sushi rolls for the table and the quality of the fish was top notch! Our party was so impressed that we look forward to returning to try more items on the menu. Congrats to this new addition to our neighborhood. read more

love this place, great value and Olivia was fantastic. had the bento combination and was terrific. read more

A new sushi spot in Alameda. We tried a variety of dishes--California rolls for the kids, the Maguro Fever Roll, Joy Roll, and miso black cod. Everything was fresh and flavorful, but the standout was the Maguro Fever Roll, which had a delicious smoky flavor and a satisfying crunch from the jalapeno. To top it off, our friendly server surprised us with complimentary edamame and mango sorbet. This place is definitely making it into our regular rotation. read more

Best Sushi in Alameda and the service was wonderful. Food came quickly, our party also ordered tempura and teriyaki dishes and everyone was pleased. read more

Sadly, the quality has gone downhill for this place. The quality just hasn't been good recently - at least 1 type of fish was not fresh each time I ordered. I gave it a few weeks try just to make sure. I hope they will go back to the way they were at the start. read more

Too many things gone wrong. First, we could smell cigarette fumes in the restaurant cuz someone was smoking outside the back door. Second, I order two item bento box. It took a while to come out and one of my items was cold. The quantity was small and beef teriyaki was dry. Sorry don't think I will be returning when there's so many better options in Alameda. read more

Came here and last week and had a good experience. Restaurant looked new, I heard that it opened at the spot of the previous Japanese restaurant. Interior is pretty good with nice light fixtures. Wide food selection on the menu. I ordered sushi roles, shrimp tempura and miso soup, everything was tasty and fresh. read more

This was the best sushi I have ever had! Also, the remodel looks great - very inviting; and the service was excellent.

The sushi rolls were very big and tasty and deserve 5 stars. Their service deserves 5 stars if only because how much I laughed during the meal. Waiter got order wrong (karage chicken instead of chicken teriyaki) and proceeded to use the extra pair of chopsticks to take away 2 of the 3 pieces of the karage chicken from our combo dinner and offered one piece to my 4 year old kid who loved the chicken. Before that, we asked if what we received karage chicken or teriyaki and one of the waiters didnt know which it was. Finally 3 waiters checked in on us within a 45 second period of time. Needed some humor after a long day at work. Hope the place makes it, food was excellent They also gave my son mango ice cream for free at end and plum wine for me and my wife. read more

Be aware, their suggested tips are based on post sale tax amount. Food is good as well service.

Came here to Sushi Broadway with a friend for dinner. The place has been renovated with a modernized interior compared to the original Kamakura. Unfortunately, my experience quickly turned into a complete 180 upon arrival. When we entered, we were greeted promptly - and were offered the first table by the door. This seating arrangement was quite awkward. It has a configuration of both diners facing the wall in the same direction, so we declined. The hostess then suggested a seat at the bar, which we did not want neither. Keep in mind, the restaurant was about half occupied during dinner time - 3 unoccupied tables by the window & approximately 6 small tables in the middle section. I then pointed to one of the tables by the window, which seemed more comfortable. The hostess visibly hesitated and gave out a negative body language. Despite this, i insisted on that table and she reluctantly agreed. It was clear she wasn't pleased with the request. As she walked us to our preferred table and handed us the menus, we feel her demeanor is becoming more negative and not welcoming, so we decided to give it a minute and walked out. The lack of hospitality and professionalism of Sushi Broadway is a major letdown. Their entire staff should take a class on hospitality and customer service. I won't be coming back. read more

Husband & I came here for lunch with our kids. Place was nice and it was not busy only 2 tables were being used when we arrived. Waiter offered water and even gave our son a kids cup which was awesome but unfortunately when it came to ordering our food, was when we got disappointed, we ordered 2 fried appetizer, which were super small for the price and the Wait time was a bit long for the place being soo dead. My husband waited over 1 hour for a fireball sushi rolls. Also if your kids have tablets make sure to lower the volume. We ended up canceling our sushi order and they offered us 2 shots of wine which we decline since we don't drink. They should really consider asking for an opinion before assuming that alcohol is the best option for everyone especially if you have kids. A desert could have been a better option. We will not be returning. read more

Have been here several times & will be coming back! Everyone I've brought enjoyed it too. Yummy food with decent vegetarian options. I always ask for a couple minor substitutions, & they're always gracious about it. Since I've been multiple times, the server now remembers my order & always gives a warm welcome. They also always offer a bit of plum wine after the meal. Parking is usually easy nearby. Casual but nice enough for a date night. read more

Good flaky tempura. Pretty fresh big portion of sushi rolls. 2 free mango sorbet cups & 5 plum drinks for mother's day.

First time here and we're really surprised by this new spot. Ambiance was on point...clean, light and modern. The service was amazing and the miso marinated black cod and sushi we ordered was some of the butteriest fish we've had in awhile. Glad they reopened the space and made a legit sushi spot! read more

Sushi Broadway is a high quality restaurant. The food was excellent. I had my favorite Japanese dish, Unagi Donbury. There was a good helping of the unagi in a delicious unagi sauce on a bed of perfectly cooked rice. A small fresh salad and a bowl of miso soup came with my donbury. My friend had the Passion sushi dish which was a big serving of salmon sushi. Dee-lish! At the end we were given a complimentary shot of plum wine. The service was impeccable. The decor of the former restaurant Kamakura was tastefully updated and Japanese classical music was in the background. Check out Broadway Sushi for a delicious lunch or dinner. read more

The sushi was delicious. Four of the six of us were sushi fans and ordered an assortment of rolls. Two of our guests were not sushi fans so ordered bento boxes. These two boxes were served to a six-year-old girl and a disabled man about the time all the sushi was gone. The servers need to learn how to serve their excellent food uniformly to the table. read more

We love Japanese food and we tried Sushi Broadway unfortunately we are not happy with food and their service..We ordered soft shell crab rolls, its chewy and doesnt taste fresh, we tried a lof soft shell crab and this is the worst ever.We also got a bento box, , also so dissapointing as presentations sucks, tonkatsu is under cooked .Overlly price restaurant and the lady is racist. She only asking white people how's the food mulitple times and not even get into our table we were there for a while. The only good thing are the 2 kid waiters.The ambiance is way too diferent from the old kamakura wherein my family and kids celebrate their birthdays ..Not happy after spending $130 for only 2 people. read more

Food is flavorful. Sushi highlights the flavor of the fish which is what is how it is supposed to be. Place is very clean. And the front counter staff are very friendly. read more

My boyfriend's mom got this to-go for a family lunch and it was so great! We had a sashimi plate, nigiris, and a few rolls. The sashimi were thick cuts and the rolls were good! My boyfriend's mom said this is their second store that just recently opened. Congrats to the owners on their wonderful establishment! read more

Went there last week on their grand opening! The place was packed! Sushi was fresh and delicious. And definitely be back!
