    The food is excellent, featuring authentic seafood flavors. The service is good, though it could be improved with a bit more organization. The atmosphere is authentically Mexican--just like being at home. I highly recommend it!

    Sushinaloa in Redwood City really blew us away. I've never known Mexican style sushi was a thing, so when we learned that this Sinaloa-style sushi spot was right in our neighborhood, we definitely had to try! And we did not disappoint. Everything was phenomenal: the vibe, the flavors, and especially the portions. We were shocked by how much food came out. Their rolls are MASSIVE, double the size of rolls from other sushi places. Normally for 2 people, we'd order around 3 rolls and maybe 1-2 appetizers, but here, we ordered about the same amount, the same price and somehow ended up with enough food for like 4 people . Genuinely shocked until today (but in a good way) As for the flavors, it's pretty much exactly how you'd imagine Mexican-style sushi, smoky, bold flavors, spicy, super cheesy and super filling. And here's what we had: - Brucheta Sushi ($22.95): a must-try, signature. Everybody around us ordered this. It had steak, shrimp, cream cheese, avocado, and cucumber. A fried roll, big bites and super comforting. - Cachichurris ($19.45): the 2nd fried rolls we ordered with shrimp, octopus, cream cheese, cucumber, and avocado. Okay now it's becoming too much. I mean it's delicious, nothing's wrong, but we should just order 1 fried roll only - Salmon Roll ($22.45): the real life saver!!! Since the other rolls were fried and heavy, this fresh salmon roll really balanced thing out. - Tuna La Perrona ($22.50): basically a tuna sashimi-style dish, served with fried tortillas and pickled mango & cucumbers. The sauce was ridiculously good, I would have it again next time! - Oyster shots ($18.5): Bold!!!!! - La Gueva ($17.50): Refreshing cocktail, I love it!!!! Definitely will come back!!!! But next time I'll come hungry we ended up bringing a lot of leftovers home.

    Going in, we were sat right away and were able to order water and an appetizer. Afterwards, we ordered food, but once the food arrived, our server was nowhere to be found. We had finished eating and stayed another 30 minutes and there was no sight of her.... Then we found out there was male server out of nowhere. He helped us at the end with our check, but we had no clue they had switched. Food wise, it was ok, music was great, and they had halloween decor they were taking down and getting ready with the Christmas decor.

    There's a place in Downey like this that I'd wanted to go to but now I don't have to travel. The concept is right here! The best of two worlds collide: sushi and Mexican sabor. From the outside I thought this would be a small restaurant but it's quite large. There are several large booths and a few tables to accommodate large groups. The atmosphere is loud with music playing throughout. Three menus: drinks, food, and desserts. The drink menu is extensive with all the regular favorites: margaritas, micheladas, beers, and many specialties. The main menu offers up appetizers, sushi rolls, an array of ceviches and aguachiles, and a few traditional options. Portions are enormous. Everything is shareable. Each menu item comes with julienned carrots and a chile that is sweet with a hint of heat. I ordered the Ceviche Mixto, just a hint of heat balanced with flavorful shrimp and octopus. It's served with a bag of Finca tostadas. The Spicy Tuna resembled a Japanese sushi roll with cream cheese, avocado, and jalapeño. The fish tasted fresh and by how busy the restaurant was, I trusted they go through a lot of fish and it couldn't possibly have sat around for very long. The Brucheta is a steak roll (similar to Bento box steak slices) with shrimp, cream cheese, and avocado. I wish I had room for more. I wanted to try the Quesabirria. There is a small parking lot in the rear accessible from the main road and side street. The staff was so welcoming and excited to share their food. I can't wait to go back for chilaquiles and more sushi rolls.

    So, we finally went to Sushinola, I checked out some reviews, and they seemed okay, they mostly complained about the service, the time it took to get their food, so we decided to give it a shot after the lunch rush i read the reviews, why was i surprised of our experience? We went around 1:30, hoping to miss the lunch rush. When we got there, maybe five other tables were there, and one hadn't gotten their food yet, and then there was us. Getting our food took forever, considering we were the only ones waiting besides that other table. We probably waited like 20 to 25 minutes. They had three waitresses. Two seemed friendly, but one looked like she didn't want to be there, and of course, she was the one who waited on us. not sure why it was hard to get an extra plate and fork, I had to get up and ask another waitress, who was happy to help. The food was mediocre at best. The coctel had a ok amount of shrimp, but the soup was flavorless. It tasted like water and lemon or lime. There wasn't any tomato base, salt or any other flavor, so it was pretty gross. And they didn't even use avocado, which I'm used to. My wife's molcajete was pretty bad too. The cheese they put on it was burnt and mostly stuck to the bowl. We couldn't eat the chicken because it was overcooked, and we thought it might have been reheated and dried out. We didn't eat it because it was inedible. The pork and beef were okay, also overcooked, but we ate them. The rice was terrible and didnt touch it either. Overall, we were disappointed because it looks like a fun place from the outside. We won't be going back. The experience, the service, and the food were just awful, and I wouldn't recommend it. Hopefully, the restaurant pays attention to these reviews and provides better experiences . I wish them luck.

    Sushi, quesabirria, Michelada

    If you haven't tried Mexican sushi with a fire michelada, you're seriously missing out This spot does it right every time. The sushi has that perfect Mexican twist--loaded with flavor, fresh ingredients, and just the right amount of spice. Every roll I've tried has been on point, but paired with their micheladas? That's a whole different level. Ice cold, perfectly seasoned, and super refreshing.

    Stopped by for dinner on Sunday, while we waited for our table, some of us went to grab a drink at the bar & were seated shortly after. After being seated, we had to flag down a waiter to come & take our order. The waiter said she thought we were already being helped since we had drinks but we explained we had bought those at the bar. We ordered some guacamole, salsa, chips & flautas to start off with. The guacamole had no salt, we had to season it ourselves along with the salsa that came with it. For our main dishes, we ordered the quesabirria which was just alright 3/5, the pozole which was a 5/5, a seafood tostada 5/5, sushi 3/5 & molcajete 3/5 the shrimps were overcooked along with the piece of steak, it was too well done, it was dry & hard to chew. The vibes at this place were lively, they had a great music selection & it was a great hang out spot to end our funday Sunday. I can't say that I'll be back but it was worth checking out. The items on the menu are a hit or miss. Please note that parking can be difficult & although they offer parking behind the restaurant, it was packed.

    Divorciado Roll, lots going on with this roll, very good!

    We recently checked out Akami Sushi in Redwood City, and it was a solid place to dine in (place was…read moretoo local and hidden that we didn't expect it to be that good). We really recommend checking out their off menu items (they will hand you a hand-written note when you get there) because the chef is just clearly so talented. Here are the highlights: * Ankimo Nigiri (off menu): Have to be honest, I was actually pretty scared to try ankimo (Google said it's monkfish liver - like who even dare to eat liver ), but I'm so glad I did. It wasn't fishy or difficult to eat at all, but incredibly rich and creamy. I'm obsessed!!! * Otoro (off menu): This was the star. The tuna belly was pure umami, super fatty, buttery, and literally melted the second it hit my tongue - really recommend ordering this one * Lobster Roll (off menu): As a girl who's on calories deficit, my body screams for help when I found out it had shrimp tempura (I tried to avoid fried food), but this roll was so damnnnnn savory! It's made of lobster, shrimp tempura and a combo of eel sauce, spicy mayo, and tobiko - no need anymore dipping sauce cause they were just phenomenal * Kaisen: This was a refreshing roll - made of tuna, salmon, hamachi (yellowtail), and white tuna. Shiso (perilla) really enhanced the flavor of the fish and brought fresh taste that I think is the best pairing for any sushi/sashimi dish * Woodside Roll: This was the only miss for us. It uses minced spicy tuna, which honestly ruined the texture and flavor of the fish. We prefer tasting the real meat rather than a mash :( Overall, we like everything that we order, and our bill came out at around $100 for all that we had (budget friendlyyyyy) and we were really satisfied with the sushi quality. Will we go back? Definitely! Do we recommend it to our friends? Heck yeah!

We waited for 45 minutes after ordering to see any food at all, when there were only 4 parties in the restaurant. For that reason, I'm not sure I would come back.

Today I was able to meet my friend here for lunch and since it was a weekday we got a table right away at noon. To our pleasant surprise there was a lunch special offered at the back of the menu. For $17 you can a item from column A then B. I went with teriyaki beef (+1) and gyoza. The lunch special came with rice, tea and miso soup. I order the yuzu drink too. Everything was so yummy! The decor is cute with many lucky cats near the entrance and around the sushi bar. Near the back there is a huge display kawaii, anime and robotech figures. I can see kids enjoying looking at them. Looks like they have a private room option that is narrow and long with many 2 seater table side by side, maybe they open it up when they get busy. They have a parking lot that can exit through the back is what my friend told me but I found street which has a 2 hour limit. I saw a car with a parking ticket so I'm guessing they do enforce it.

    Good place. I tried:…read more 1. Edamame. This was good, as it usually is, since it's a pretty simple dish. 2. Bento box with sushi (5 nigiri of chef's choice) and avocado maki. The bento box comes with rice, salad, and miso soup. Everything was good. The sushi was fresh and tender, and they gave me cooked shrimp, salmon, and 3 that I couldn't identify. The salad was good, too, with a creamy dressing that maybe had some sesame paste in it. The amount of dressing was about right, maybe just a touch more than ideal for me, but they were pretty light-handed with it overall. The miso soup and avocado maki were good. The avocado maki had more avocado in proportion to rice than other places, so that was nice. 3. Mochi ice cream, strawberry. This was pretty good. About average, I guess. 4. Yuzu cheesecake. Nice citrus flavor. I know Japanese cheesecakes are airier/lighter than American cheesecakes, but I thought they are usually a bit more creamy than this one. This one was more like a regular cake. It was good, though. Overall a good, casual place I'd be glad to return to for Japanese food. Service was good, although there were only two servers while we were there, and so sometimes it could be a bit slow. There were two TV screen showing sports. There is a small parking lot, or you can park on a nearby street.

My first impression on Redwood City location was that it really lived up to the hype. We ordered deluxe chirashi, oh baby roll and house warm sake, more than enough to feed for 2 (and both stuffed). Deluxe chirasi was just insane. The fish quality definitely top notch, and you can taste that. It had sea urchins, hokkaido scallops, shrimp, salmon roe and 5 types of fish belly (my most favorite part of the fish). Every bite just literally melted in my mouth, and they were incredible fatty and delicious. You get what you pay for. Oh baby roll was also delicious, but luckily we tried it before the chirashi (or else it would turn into a disappointment - since the chirashi was phenomenal). It's just a basic roll, stuffed with ahi tuna and avocado topped with seared salmon, you can skip it if you want. House warm sake was a surprise. I like it more than I thought. It paired so well with the sushi. Service was fast even though they were busy. If you want high quality sushi and dont mind spending a bit more, this is the spot!

My partner also ordered three sushi rolls for us to share. The service was excellent! Our server was friendly and attentive, and the hibachi chef put on an amazing show, making the meal a truly entertaining experience. It was a first for both of us! However, there was one significant issue. During the hibachi, everyone at our shared table received a bowl of rice except for me. When some leftover rice was offered, a group of teenage boys quickly claimed it, even though they saw I hadn't received any. My boyfriend offered to share his, but it was frustrating to feel like I had to "fight" for food that should have been included. The food was good and the hibachi was enjoyable. The sushi was decent, though I've had better, this incident left a sour taste.

I'm tempted to give a lower rating, but the good aspects balance it out. It was an okay experience, but I don't see myself returning, as I'd prefer not to contend for my meal.

At this point, I think they've raised their prices to try to offset losing business, but they've got it all backwards. In order to keep this place from going under, they need to take the temporary hit of bringing their prices back down, increase quality, and improve service. You'll never get customers to come back if you keep raising prices and serving mediocre food with even more mediocre (bordering on terrible) service. Or maybe it's just time for them to go away altogether to make room for another restaurant who can better serve this area.
