This sushi buffet was surprisingly good! I was surprised at the quality of this restaurant. We…read moreboth love the sashimi plates and we ordered it twice. We sat right next to the bar which made it easy to get into the line for the sashimi. Wednesday is probably the best day to go because the line was relatively small and fast. In fact, we were the first people in line before the actual restaurant opened. We had Yelp reservations but being first in line, they didn't even ask about the reservation. Everyone was friendly and even the customers were friendly too. One older lady walked right in front of the line and said that she went there every Wednesday for 3 years and they know her. It was very clean and being the first people in the restaurant probably made the place even cleaner for us. The sashimi was fresh. Loved the salmon, saba (makeral), hamachi and unagi (eel). We loved the salmon skin rolls too and ordered it twice. The aburi nigiri was good when I added a slice of fresh salmon sashimi on top. You get a big plastic cup of water. Order the appetizers from the waitress (sashimi and rolls are a separate line inside the restaurant in front of the buffet). The sesame balls were tiny and cute. The hamachi collar was small and fresh (husband said it was a bit bland). It's relatively healthy if you like cooked fish. There is no sauce and it's just probably dipped quickly in hot oil to cook. Flash fried. Took about 10 minutes to cook. 40 minutes into the end of our lunch, the waitress brought our check and it was around 63 dollars for lunch after tip and taxes. Best value ever. I liked this much better than the Japanese restaurant I spent almost 100 on lunch in Berkeley recently. Highly recommended!

Pretty solid AYCE sushi option. We tried this place over the weekend and were really happy with it…read more The food was fresh, with a good variety of sushi and nigiri. The appetizers were also solid, especially the soft shell crab and fried oysters. My only complaint was the tuna. It didn't taste as fresh, and you could tell it wasn't the best quality. But for the price, I can easily skip the tuna and focus on the other options. Overall, definitely a place I'd come back to. Adding this one to our restaurant rotation for sure.

Which is what we wanted for our daughter, but they said we'd need to order off the main menu for that. I'm sorry but our child is not going to eat a $28 meal of beef teriyaki. That was a bit disappointing. The atmosphere was your typical volume of noise. They sat us next to the separating wall and we noticed a layer of dust on the ledge as well as on the decorative wooden partition. Appears it hasn't been cleaned in years. So it was fine, nothing to rave about this time around.

This place is a staple of mine and my fiancé's relationship. Her parents first introduced this…read moreplace to her when she was young, and she did the same for me when we first met. We've been coming here for 4 years now, and they remember us every time. The service here is great. The servers are very friendly and are always on top of general service throughout the course of our visits. The food is also fantastic to say the least. We have never, and I mean never, have had an unpleasant experience eating here. Even if we ordered something we didn't personally like, it wasn't the quality nor the presentation that was to blame for our dislike. The feel of the restaurant is warm and inviting. The same woman always greets us, and as mentioned before, she always recognizes us. The chef almost always gives us an extra roll to try on the house. This is and was never expected, but they go out of their way to do so and we are beyond appreciative of it. The picture attached shows the roll given to us during our most recent visit. We would attach more photos, but we were too busy eating our other rolls to bother taking photos. However, even if they didn't give us a free roll to try from time to time, our regard for this lovely restaurant wouldn't change. I highly recommend Sushi Momoyama to any and every local that is craving tasty sushi and a welcoming atmosphere.

Upon entering, you are given this amazing salad with dressing and Miso soup. We ordered the Ichiban Roll, Dynamite roll, Amigo roll, and the new chef's special Mamacita roll. While all were amazing, the Mamacita roll especially caught our eyes because of it's refreshing taste and lemon flavor. It is something new that I hope the staff keeps because it was truly divine. Each time we enter, they always try their best to attend all customers with such a polite manner. We've been coming here for almost 4 years and we never regret our choices. Due to our frequent visits, the staff even remembers us! It truly makes us feel recognized. Regardless, this place is always an amazing recommendation for the best sushi in Concord. If you ever have a chance, please give this place a try. I highly recommend their sushi options but the rest of their food is just as good!

We've been twice now and excited to go back once again…read more.. Service is friendly, prompt, and well paced. The grilled edamame is very tasty. I'm a fan of any edamame, although this preparation brings a depth of flavor that steaming just doesn't do. Reminds me of grilled shishitos a little bit. The fish is super fresh--both visits we've gotten the sashimi sampler, from the small plates menu. All three fish-- salmon, tuna, and hamachi-- just melt in your mouth. While we've liked some rolls more than others, especially their speciality rolls, all have still been enjoyable.

Unfortunately the fish was not fresh and the sesame chicken was drenched in the sweet sauce. The maguro in the Rocky combo although thick slices, it was definitely not tasted horrible. I did not eat any more of it after that first bite. We barely touched the food and it was a waste of money. Maybe they were having an off night, but I'm not sure if I'd chance it again.

We had just placed our order when our daughter started crying because of her sleep regression. My husband took her outside to change her diaper, but she was still very upset. We felt terrible because our food had just been served, and we had to ask if everything could be packed to go instead. The two wonderful ladies who helped us were incredibly kind, patient, and understanding. I apologized for the inconvenience, but they immediately reassured me that it was completely okay. I believe the lovely woman who seated us and packed our food was the manager, and she told me she understood because she's a mom herself. Those simple words meant so much to me that I almost cried. As a new mom, moments like these can feel overwhelming, and their compassion made us feel seen instead of embarrassed instead of judged. Their kindness, professionalism, and genuine care are something I will never forget. We didn't want the amazing food they had just prepared for us to go to waste or lose its freshness, so we parked outside and enjoyed our meal right there in the parking lot. I'm so glad we did because everything was absolutely delicious! You can truly taste the care they put into every dish. Thank you to both amazing ladies for treating our little family with so much warmth and understanding. I wish I had gotten your names so I could thank you personally. We will absolutely be back the next time we're out of the city--hopefully when baby girl is a little older so we can enjoy our meal inside from start to finish. If you're looking for incredible food and customer service that comes from the heart, this is the place. Thank you for making our first family outing one we'll always remember.

We went in with no reservation around 7 pm and even though it was packed and busy we still managed to get seated immediately. The place itself was small and cozy had fun decor. We got gyozas for free appetizers and then ordered the some miso soup, Giants Roll, 49ers roll, and a mixed tempura plate to share. Food was delicious and at a good price too.

We got the dinner bentos with 3 items for $36. Portions were huge and with the miso soup, salad and complimentary gyoza, it was a lot of food. One bento is easily 3 meals for me. Food was tasty. BF had beef in his bento that he said was it was a little tough. The tempura was crunchy and tasty-3 pieces of shrimp and various vegetables. One table was celebrating a birthday and they gave them a birthday cake and played the drums for him which was cool. I would definitely come back to try more.

Menu had several party tray options and I hurriedly placed the order online thinking I ordered a specific tray (D) with several raw fish rolls I liked but I had picked E which was mostly cooked. I called back asking if they can change it but they already made it so I decided to let it be. Upon pick up I saw that they had added a sashimi sampler on the house - wow what a nice and generous gesture! Very much appreciated that as well as the beautiful presentation of the tray. The cooked rolls were pretty good and I got to enjoy some of the sashimi with them. I'll definitely order from them again and this time will get the D tray. Thanks Ichiko for a great first time experience!

I finally tried this place and it was actually very good. Super fresh and tasty. It was very clean…read morein there, not the nicest lighting/ambiance but more casual vibes. I like just being left alone to order at the kiosk and take my time if needed. The one star off is because my order was wrong, the protein was right on the poke bowl, but not all the toppings were there and some wrong toppings. Also, one of my sauces was missing. I would have brought it back, but it's a waste to remake. I really don't want the item that was added in so that sucks a little bit. I think the guy should slow down and make sure he pays attention to the order since it's listed out/doesn't seem too hard. It's better to wait a minute longer and get the order right. They should get that handled because I imagine some people will want it remade to remove toppings they don't want and that's a total waste of their food. The only other thing that freaked me out a little is their seaweed salad turned the rice bright green right away which makes it seem like weird quality/food dye. That being said, it was delicious and seemed very fresh overall and I'll be back. But I will tell them to please make sure to put the right toppings on there. Recommend you check your orders before you go.

Hidden inside Oak Grove Plaza, Ozora Sushi is a true gem for sushi lovers…read more One of the things that keeps me coming back is that they occasionally offer bluefin tuna and, if you're lucky, toro sashimi. The only catch is that both can sell out quickly, so it pays to arrive early. The Jaw Roll, which features bluefin tuna, is one of my absolute favorites. "Delicious" does not do it justice. Even on days when the bluefin is unavailable, there is no need to worry because the menu is filled with excellent options. I have yet to try a roll here that disappointed me. The garlic edamame is another standout appetizer, though fair warning: you'll be protected from vampires for at least a day afterward. It is packed with garlic and absolutely worth it. For dessert, the fried banana with vanilla ice cream is the perfect way to end the meal. The restaurant has plenty of tables, though a short wait is common during busy times. In all my visits, I have never waited more than about ten minutes. Because Ozora is so popular, it can get a little lively and noisy during peak hours, but never to the point where I have had trouble carrying on a conversation with the people dining with me. To me, the buzz is simply a sign that this place has built a loyal following. Overall, Ozora Sushi is one of those reliable neighborhood spots that consistently delivers great food, friendly service, and a dining experience that keeps me coming back.

This isn't the first time that I've dines here over the years. However, it is my first time…read moreremembering to write a review. The 4 star rating is strictly based upon the food only. My husband showed up around 11:35 am this morning for an early lunch today. I ordered a bento box with vegetable tempura and teriyaki beef with the sauce on the side. My husband ordered beef curry with a pork cutlet. When our food came, overall it looked great. I wish I took a picture of the food, but I didn't. I noticed that my beef teriyaki was cut into VERY thin slices and cooked in stripes of onion. I picked up a piece of beef and dipped it into the teriyaki sauce. The flavor was good, but the beef was WAY overcooked. Hindsight is 20/20. I should have said something to our server right away, but I didn't. Instead my husband traded some of his meal for my overcooked teriyaki beef. The rest of the food was delicious. I almost cleared the entire bento box (I didn't eat all of the rice). After we got our check, I did tell our server, Joshua, to tell the chef a that all of the food was delicious except for the teriyaki beef that was VERY overcooked. He said that he'd let the chef know. Our server, Joshua, was attentive, efficient, professional, and kind. His service was a 5/5. The dining room decor was nice like usual. I've always like the fish sculptures hanging above as well as the warrior sculptures on the shelves. I also appreciate the 80's music that playing, fun! It was a 5/5. We'll be back to dine again. I just need to remember not to order the beef teriyaki.

Each table has screens where you place your order. The sashimi was delicious! The only callout- The wasabi did not have bite or that kick that it usually has so that is my only reservation. The edamame was good but that is hard to miss. The tako yaki could improve as it could use more octopus and less batter . The chicken karaage was really good. Overall a great sushi option for Martinez.
