    Top: Sebastopol Roll Bottom: Redwood Roll
    Anthony W.

    Very tasty sushi. Me and my girl went here recently and got some food to go which when I got there I kinda wish we had sat inside. Just looking from the outside it looked like it had a nice traditional interior. The prices seemed reasonable and the fish seemed fresh. We ended up getting a Sebastopol and Redwood Roll which were both really good. The Redwood one reminded me of a caterpillar roll. Very fresh and a lot of flavors with each bite. I'm never really in a Tuna mood but I was really shocked at how much I ended up liking the Sebastopol roll. Ultimately this is the kind of quality I'm used to in the Bay Area. Nothing out of the ordinary. Just really good tasting food!

    Always delicious and fresh! Tozai is my favorite sushi spot! Great service and ambiance. Prawn martini is better than anywhere else! I used to have to share it with my kids but now they demand their own! My favorites are the new wave roll, hamachi nigiri, escolar nigiri and sake nigiri. My family loves the Sebastopol roll! Mermaid roll is really good, too!

    The variety of vegetarian rolls we had for takeout
    Vijay N.

    I strongly recommend Sushi Tozai for its incredible variety of vegetarian options! We called for takeout at dinner time and it was ready very quickly! Some of my favorites were the tempura sweet potatoes, the asparagus rolls, and Inari. The dragon roll was beautiful and chock full of vegetables, but I didn't get much flavor from the mango or avocado wrapping the rolls. I appreciated that the shop tried to minimize packaging to the greatest extent possible. The service was also very friendly. I would definitely return!

    This place has decent enough sushi but there's not much flavor and the prices are super odd. Very limited menu. Overall disappointed.

The place is medium sized, you can eat outside on the terrace which is nice and It's right next door to Golden State cider. It's also an open kitchen and the bar had lots of great Japanese alcohol. Cool lil spot for a sushi lunch.

Usually we like sitting at the bar to see the chefs do their thing, but this place is not like that at least the night we went to which was surprising cause Japanese establishments typically are cooking out in the open. They had a lot of different sakes which was really nice to see but no draft beer unless I missed it. They let you pick a cup for your sake which is so cute, I loved that. All their table wear was so beautiful. We got a fruity sake first and loved that one. The second one was the "goku" it was giving straight sake. I'd prolly stick to fruitier ones. The server was very kind and she was easy to talk to and provided great service. As for the food, I thought it was pretty okay! We ordered the omakase which was $75 per person and it was very filling. We had trout sashimi which had some bite texturally not my fave fish tbh. Potato Salad which a jammy egg omg I loved it but wondered how it'd taste if the egg was marinated. The mushroom soup was lemony and oniony it was pretty good. The karage could've been crispier imo and I wish the wasabi aoli was a lil different but it was still good. The robata was hella good my fave was the meatball one, I'm not a big fan of cartilage but that it very well cooked, and I appreciated the pile seasoning provided as well. The strawberry topped panna cotta was so good no notes. Overall, pretty good and I'd go again if I was in this area and order individual dishes especially the potato salad and panna cotta. Not really the vibe of an izakaya imo they also don't have ginger but def a nice Japanese restaurant with some twists.

And my taste are different differently different than others. There was something off about the kimchi... It just didn't taste like what I'm used to, but I mean that could be a restaurant thing. I was also thrown off by the macaroni salad. It also had no flavor. I really enjoyed the bean sprouts and wanted to get another serving but was told it was a sample serving and that they don't do more than that. I could pay two dollars m Overall, I think my biggest issue was that a lot of the food was much sweeter than I expected. I was especially surprised by the grilled shrimp because I never imagined it would taste that sweet. I'm not going to lie, I still ate everything because I paid for it and didn't want to waste the food. The highlight of the meal was the Love Boat sushi roll that they light on fire. Visually, it was really impressive and made for a fun presentation. Taste wise, though, it was just an average sushi roll. I couldn't tell that the fire added anything to the flavor. I didn't notice any smokiness or anything that elevated the dish, and I honestly think it would have tasted the same without the fire. For what I paid, I don't think the meal was worth it, so I probably wouldn't come back just for myself. That said, I can see why other people might enjoy it. I did really like the jalapeño on the sushi roll because it added a nice kick, so I would order that again. This is also one of the few times I've had Thai iced tea that was simply too sweet for my taste.
