    Don't be deceived by the area, it looks like a warehouse/building complex and it's a random spot to get food but the sushi was delicious! I've been here a few times and it doesn't disappoint.  It is a shared establishment with other food cuisines but I've only tried Sushi Heroes.  We ordered the  hulkamole and tiger king and they were delicious! They were big portions and definitely memorable! Two rolls were a perfect amount for two people to share for lunch. Be aware that there will be at least a 15 minute wait*** To order, scan the QR code on the wall (you'll need to make an account to order, a bit tedious). There were a few chairs indoors available to sit and wait but there are no tables. It is more of a takeout place. There was an outdoor table but it was dusty and covered with cobwebs so we ended up eating our meal in the car. There was ample parking and I am unsure if they have a customer restroom available. I like how they have a section of customer cards, so you can advertise your local business. The prices are a little steep but the quality makes it worth it!

    The platter
    Rocky P.

    The service has gone down hill since my last visit over a year ago. Ordered a platter to be finished at 1:55, I came at 2:05 (was told another 5-10 minutes), now it's 2:30 and still my order is not done. I even received an email saying my order is ready. They seem to be more focused on chit-chatting in back and listening to music. Sadly I was a huge supporter of this place but next time I'll just order somewhere closer to work.

    Small Avenger Platter : Creamy Scallop, Green Spicy Tuna, Shrimp-Man, Philly, Spicy Scallop
    Amanda L.

    I heard about this hole in the wall spot from a friend and had to check it out since it's not far from home. For $40 we got hefty platter for two and my bf and I couldn't even finish. We ordered online and the pickup was seamless and fast. No issues with service, staff provided soy sauce and chopsticks in our order too. The location seems unassuming and I wasn't sure I was in the right spot at first. It's a kitchen pick-up so everything is to-go. what we choose for our Small Avenger Platter: - Creamy Scallop: i love scallop and this did not disappoint - Green Spicy Tuna: this was good but a little too spicy for me. if you love spicy tuna this is def worth a try - Shrimp-Man: this was my bf's fav roll and he did not have high expectations lol. pleasantly surprised - Philly: your standard cream cheese roll. you can't go wrong with a classic! - Spicy Scallop: my second favorite

    Jalapeno Poppers

    Jalapeño poppers were so creative being a Japanese spin with the tempura and sauce. The filling was on dry side as I think the cream cheese maybe got too cooked. I got basic rolls of California rolls and shrimp tempura. Not the prettiest but still tasty. The shrimp tempura was still crunchy as it was a door dash order. The colossal chicken was very good. Veggies cooked to a nice texture and chicken great flavor. I've tried other speciality rolls here prior and I enjoyed although the toppings were quite a lot.

    Ghost Kitchen sushi, strictly take-out either call/pick up yourself or get it delivered to you via delivery platform. I've picked up my orders when I was working in this area, as I don't do delivery services out of choice. They are in an industrial area, so if you're not savvy at driving in such zones, then choose delivery. San Jo actually has a thing with sushi. They love big, monstrous rolls with multi-ingredients and not so much traditional simple rolls. And often you'll even see lots of Mexican seafood places doing sushi where they'll take these monstrous multi-sauced rolls and incorporate ingredients that Mexicans are fond of like jalapenos, chipotle and lime. I've only tried a couple of things here and even though this isn't my preferred way to eat sushi, but when hungry and on a time constraint, this filled me up in a jiffy without pretense or hassle. Hamachi Lover ($15/4*) Spicy hamachi in the middle, hamachi slices on top then drizzled with spicy mayo and topped with green onions and fresh sliced jalapenos. Not as spicy as one would assume with these ingredients. This is a roll that I felt represented San Jose quite well, equal mix of Mexican and Asian. For a crazy roll, I actually liked it as it was a bit more focused by having just 3-4 ingredients versus 7-8. Feast Maker ($15/3*) I shared this once and this is truly one of those crazy monster rolls that I find more amusing than delicious. IMO a stoner's dream. Lol. This was a shrimp tempura in the middle, then topped with salmon and tuna slices on top. Probably has some cucs and avo in there as well and probably 2 sauces on top. Now the ingredients were fine, but this is where these types of rolls can get a bit busy for me. I only had half and I was actually full. So to that I guess I can't really hate on this too much. But to get this for myself, probably not, to share a few bites with someone who are more into these types of rolls, totally doable. I think they do most of their business from large catering orders from companies/businesses, so they'll go through their inventory quite well. But for the common 408 youngster who probably uses delivery services daily, this is a decent out for ya.

    #4 Iron Salmon Hero Roll
    Jezza Mei O.

    I remember when The Sushi Heroes had a brick and mortar store front in Alum Rock. First, because it was less than 5 minutes away from me and second, because the names of the sushi were named after superheroes. I missed being able to come in and look at the menu because it was nicely designed. This location is similar to a Local Kitchens. It's a little hard to find, to be honest. It's kinda tucked away in a dark business corner, so be aware of that. This is a quick fix sushi spot that's tasty and affordable. Refer to the menu for your preferences. I always make sure I get deep fried California roll because my partner doesn't eat raw fish and he loves it! If you put your number into their system, sometimes they send promo codes :)

    Jane E.

    We've been ordering from Sushi Heroes for a while now. The first time we went to the store a few years back and it was a small store front w/ collectible marvel and super hero toys. Not much room to sit and eat, so we grabbed our food and ate in the car. Parking wasn't easy, but the food was good, hands down. We've been ordering for delivery from there for our sushi fix!

    Iron Maki Salmon Tiger King (Baked) PhatBoy
    Coleen P.

    Meh. I think it's just the rolls I ordered, but I thought they're just ok I got: -Iron Maki Salmon (Salmon roll) The rice was a little too squishy in this roll I got this because it was marked as popular on Grubhub, but it's too much rice, not enough filling...it's $9 tho so can't complain -Phat boy This one was good out of the 3 -Tiger King Over baked fish inside the roll. It's cooked fish topped with more cooked fish. I was thinking it was a Lion King roll, but my fault for not reading the description I'd rather order from Sushi Day or Sen Dai, but I might try different rolls another time.

    Left to right: tuna torch, HULKAMOLE, sushi manhunter
    Frank L.

    This is a casual sushi spot that focuses more on rolls. They have an avengers theme goin on that's kinda cool. Got 3 rolls from em... The HULKAMOLE, SUSHI MAN HUNTER, and the TUNA TORCH. All of em were pretty good it just depends what fish/combination you like. Overall, felt the quality of the woods were good and wouldn't mind comin back if I was craving rolls

Spotting a delicious-looking sashimi plate at the next seat made me eager to try their sushi. The menu featured a wide variety of dishes, including sushi rolls, soups, and specialty plates. Still, I found myself not fully in the mood, likely because I was disappointed about Flaming Ox. I ordered a dragon roll and, craving California rolls, decided to get two. My daughter chose the chicken teriyaki plate and really enjoyed it. The sushi was so fresh that I saved my extra California rolls for lunch the next day. I'd definitely return to try more of their beautiful rolls or sashimi plates. Service was decent overall. We waited a bit to place our order, but the food arrived promptly. There was a moment when our server took a while to return, and I grew so thirsty I almost went searching for him myself. Fortunately, another server noticed and quickly brought me water. I'm glad I discovered this restaurant in the same shopping strip as Flaming Ox. It was odd that one side of the strip lost power while the other remained unaffected.

I ordered the teriyaki…read morechicken bento box, which came with chicken, rice, salad, soup, potstickers, and California rolls. For the price, it felt like a great value and was a very filling meal. I also ordered deep-fried oysters. They were tasty and cooked well although no dipping sauce was provided so I ended up just using soy sauce instead. One thing I noticed is that the value doesn't seem to carry over to delivery. When I looked at DoorDash, the bento box listed there didn't include the potstickers or California rolls. Ordering directly through the restaurant's website to get the full meal added about $12 in extra fees which made it much less appealing. Overall, the food was good and the in-person pricing felt reasonable. I'd happily dine here again but if you're considering delivery, be aware that you'll pay significantly more and may not get the same meal options.

I had a tour to Japan last March, I traveled from Osaka to Tokyo. I was impressed that the traditional sushi section here in this restaurant compared to Japan is not different. Far from the original, they have their own special rolls which are satisfied other style of appetite. I've been telling that the Japanese never put sauce or anything other than fish in their maki. However, the non-Japanese create sauce and ingredients to make maki more favor. As more as you know about the history of Japanese sushi, the more you respect the head chef here.

Unfortunately, the sashimi was by far the worst I've ever been served at a restaurant. The fish appeared discolored, old, and slimy. When we asked our server what types of fish were included, we were told tori, salmon, albacore, yet the almost every piece (minus the salmon) had a brownish-gray appearance that was extremely unappetizing. I'm not sure if we happened to receive the last of their inventory for the week, but serving fish in that condition at full price ($60) is kind of crazy. Some of the sashimi looked comparable to raw pork that had been sitting out, which was honestly concerning. The sushi rolls were also disappointing. They were very average, with flavors and quality that reminded me of grocery store sushi. Nothing stood out or justified the price point. Overall, this was a very disappointing experience. I was especially let down because this restaurant came highly recommended by a family member who has dined here multiple times and always had positive experiences. To make matters worse, I developed stomach discomfort within about 15 minutes of leaving the restaurant. I had been looking forward to trying this place, but unfortunately, my experience fell far short of expectations.
