This place flies under the radar. Not fancy at all but the sushi is amazing. Service was prompt and professional, albeit a little impersonal. But the food can't be beat. The hamachi slices were huge. Loved the Redlands roll. Super reasonable prices too. I plan to go back. read more

Long time customer at Tokyo Sushi! I particularly love this restaurant's cleanliness and atmosphere, everytime ive been here, I've ran into an employee named "Matthew" who went above and beyond my expectations. His quick response and cheerful demeanor made me feel welcome and comfortable throughout my meal. Almost as if I was dining with a close friend, I'd like to give a big shout-out to Matthew, who made my day with his excellent service and warm hospitality. He truly went above and beyond, and he helped make my visits to Tokyo Sushi memorable ones. read more

Tokyo Restaurant - Sushi Bars Near Me - Redlands, California

I love love this place. Their sushi and service are always consistent, even with takeout. I wish we can dine in but it is what it is. Be sure to call for take out rather than placing an order when you get there. Support small business! read more

Cozy sushi spot with a delicious selection of Japanese food. Service was great, although a little slow because they were swamped with tables and orders! We'll be going back. read more

Long time customer here. I love this place. They're under new management and have updated some things, while keeping the lovely vibe. New menu options like Toro are fantastic.

Tokyo Restaurant - Amazing Sashimi!!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Redlands, California

When i tell you its amazing, its crazy good. Im a person thats really picky with my sushi but they serve the freshest sushi with a generous proportion and reasonable price. The service is also great specially when u drink bc our server matthew came couple times and vibed with us and made sure we had the best sushi experience. Even if you are a newbie to sushi, they will explain every sushi you order to make sure you get the best experience. I also ordered their sake Kabuta Maju sake which no other sushi place near by offers for a really good price. They will even place a poster of your sake banner to let everyone know you ordered a fancy sake. Ask for Matthew chun and he will serve you right specially when you give him a few shots with your meal!! Definitely will come back 100/10 read more

Rude. Bad customer service. And check your bill because they over charged everything and won't give you a receipt. When you ask why you're being over charged, they tell you" mandatory tip" but still won't give you a receipt of how much. I've eaten here three times and never noticed it until the service I received today. Won't be coming back. read more

This is the best sushi in Redlands! The fish is always fresh and the service is great.

I was looking for a sushi place in Redlands that served sashimi. I found Tokyo restaurant on yelp and I'm super disappointed the fish was not fresh the sushi chef was staring at me like I was an alien or something when I asked him for Toro a blue fin and any specialty fish that are not on the menu. The only thing that I was good on the menu was a yellowtail caller I ate two of those and they were pretty good. The Unagi was cold and it had like a sauce that was just like a teriyaki glaze it was weird the tuna was mushy the salmon was not bad the yellowtail was also mushy I'm really disappointed with my experience I'm not sure I would ever return again. I spent $67 by myself with no alcohol it would've been better to go to Machi Machi and gold for all you can eat read more

This review is in direct response to a shameful review posted by Abril F. We were in the restaurant at the same time and witnessed/listened to the entire interaction between her and the owner she was complaining about. Abril and her mother were extremely rude and demanding from the moment they walked in; to the point where they drew attention to themselves. My family has been going to Tokyo Restaurant for over 20 years and have always been greeted/served with kindness and gratitude. (Not to mention excellent sushi.) Abril's review was dishonest, conniving and shameful. The poor restaurant's window was just vandalized moments before arriving and was already being fixed by a third party technician as we were finishing up, about 45 mins later. Certainly not a "safety hazard" as mentioned in Abril's review as the owner had blocked off the tables in close proximity to the window. This was only mentioned in her review out of spite and was taken out of context. The owner certainly did not call her a "b**ch" and treat them unprofessionally as claimed in Abrils review. The restaurant industry has truly suffered immensely since the start of the pandemic and many have not recovered. Its people like Abril that only throw salt on a painful wound. Be compassionate and remember the Golden Rule; treat others with kindness and dignity FIRST! read more

Delicious sashimi but the service was poor I ordered the plain Blue fin sashimi but was duped into getting the toro with out my knowledge till the bill came, Mighty delicious but wasn't what I wanted to pay also never got my soda but they did get one on my way out cause they forgot was grateful but definitely wanted it with my meal, but if your a regular they take care of you hand and foot but guess not us regular folks read more

Tokyo Restaurant - Blue fin Toro - Sushi Bars Near Me - Redlands, California

Came here for the first time and all the rolls we tried were DELICIOUS. The staff were super sweet especially Anthony!! He recommended the Redlands roll and it was actually really good thank you Anthony for making our experience a memorable one! Give this man a raise!! read more

Favorite local sushi spot! First of all, the staff here is so welcoming and friendly. I have a gluten allergy that got really bad a couple years ago, and the staff/owners here really take care of me! I have so much appreciation for them. They'll bring out the gluten free soy sauce, as well as split all of mine and hubby's roll in half, with no sauce on one half (to accommodate my gluten allergy). They are super understanding, and I really appreciate not feeling like a pest for my allergies. Not only that, but the fish is ACTUALLY FRESH! Very tasty rolls, and even just the sushi itself is great (good-quality fish!). Last time, we even received some nice fatty pieces of salmon in our salmon sushi order, SO GOOD! Thank you Tokyo Sushi for taking care of me. read more

The food was great! The restaurant was nice and cozy. The service was excellent. The price of the sushi is fair but it was a little pricey. Overall definitely coming back again. read more

So Mom and Pop SUSHI in a small town outside of their main square can be risky. Yet the encouraging Yelp reviews and the bustling business we witnessed on a cold Saturday night were encouraging. My partner in crime and I walked in and the masked staff was immediately attentive and friendly. They invited us to sit at the tiny but cozy sushi bar in the back. What the hell... we rolled the dice. Since we're relocating to the Redlands, we compared this place to our favorite Pasadena sushi restaurant, Tokoro. We even ordered very similar rolls of sushi for a direct comparison. Let's just say -- -- I was completely surprised at how fresh and tasty this sushi was. The rolls weren't identical, but similar... and in some cases better. (I know, right?) We will definitely return. I wish the restaurant interior (and bathrooms) were nicer but this just isn't that kind of place. Yet. If this were located in a better hood I'd dock them a star for this. But being this close to a DQ and KFC but serving THIS LEVEL sushi? All is forgiven. read more

Even though this place is a little pricey now, we always enjoy the food and service. Looking forward to our next visit

Set in the university town of Redlands, it was exactly what I expected. Good food, friendly service. Good sushi rolls and sashimi. Would definitely return! Ongod lol read more

What a cute little hole-in-the-wall! I went around 3pm and the restaurant was EMPTY! I was quite surprised but maybe 3pm is an odd time to eat out. The food didn't take very long to come and definitely SATISFIED my udon cravings! The broth had a nice flavor and everything was well made! My only semi-complaint = the waitress/hostess was pretty inattentive, esp since I was the only one in the restaurant lol. I had to wave at her for a little while before she looked up to answer any questions/bring napkins etc (I think she was at her booth watching a movie and who can blame her since service was slow). And as I was checking out, she actually engaged me in conversation and was very warm towards me and told me to come back and keep working hard in school etc... I will definitely be back and with some friends in tow! :) read more

We had such a lovely dinner tonight. The food was tasty, and service was great! We will be back!

My favorite sushi place in the whole city, dare I say in all of SBC. Friendly service, delicious rolls, and cozy atmosphere. Some of our favorite rolls are Lemon Tree, Caterpillar, and Las Vegas. I'm actually a little shocked at the few negative reviews. Maybe I haven't encountered the server they're talking about, but I think it's more likely their review is missing some info about how they came in treating the servers... because my Latino [not white-passing, either] husband and I have had only good experiences, even when he has gone alone. Servers are people, too and sometimes in life you get the attitude you give. Only criticisms: I'm not a fan of the torched rolls' butane taste - maybe they could try bouncing the flame off of charcoal? And I do hope they're able to expand one day, for larger parties! read more

Service was horrible. Never again.. food could be great but if your service is bad, I'd rather go somewhere else, would not give you a dime. Didn't even get to try the food so can't comment. We ran out of there as fast as we could. read more

We have eaten at Tokyo Restaurant for years. The food is always good and the service is great too. Some of our favorites are the Spanish roll, Dancing Shrimp and Tiger Roll. The atmosphere is comfortable and quaint. It does get busy sometimes, but that is to be expected when the food is good. Try it, you'll like it. read more

Love this place! Such good lunch specials! Fish is always so fresh! No crazy sauces needed! Delicious! read more

Tokyo Restaurant - Sashimi tuna... it's amazing - Sushi Bars Near Me - Redlands, California

I give this place five stars because I love their rolls. We really only get two rolls but they're our number one sushi spot right now. I highly recommend the crash roll and big bear roll. If you don't love them, you're cray cray. Service is great too! Bring a jacket. Gets a little chilly in there. read more

This place is great. Been there for years. Stopped by after many years. Was I'm the area. Prices have gone up obviously, but competitive. Sushi was great service was great. I didn't have to ask for drink refills. And, I really love the old school pencil fill out sushi cards. Very intimate sushi bar, maybe 8 seats. But honesty I've never not been able to get a chair walking in. I recommend this place for a low key sushi joint on a lunch break. It works. read more

best sushi in Redlands, super fresh and yummy, great service and the ambiance was goods

I go here biweekly. Good sushi, polite management. I usually get a Boston roll, I think it's pretty good. I cannot stress how attentive management is here. I cannot believe how much time, effort, and care they put into this restaurant. Great place. read more

We've been looking for a good sushi spot close to home and we finally found it. Upon entering the restaurant, we were greeted by the staff, we were seated to accommodate our newborn, and given our drinks right away. The service was 10/10. The food was also very tasty. We ordered a variety of sushi rolls and they were all delicious. Definitely recommend this spot. read more

The sushi tastes fresh and good. Prices are a bit steep and some of the rolls are pretty thin. Service is usually decent.

My fiancee and I were really afraid to try this place for sushi since it looked a bit sketchy on the outside. It's literally squashed in between a DQ and a random Thai restaurant. However, all it took was a lazy night to drive to the closest sushi spot near where we lived. We judge our sushi based on either uni, amaebi, and maguro, or all three if they have it. Tokyo Restaurant was one of the places that did offer all three! While that got our hopes up, we needed to taste it first before deciding. Uni, or more well known as sea urchin, should be lightly briny, mildy sweet, and oh-so-melt-in-your-mouth buttery. The uni served here was exactly that. Moreover, the amaebi came with their heads deep fried--a signature Japanese restaurant mark of quality! And of course, maguro, better known as tuna, was delicious as well. We ate so much that our bill ended up being over $100. If only they had an all you can eat option. read more

We stopped by for lunch after coming down from Big Bear Lake. We got there right when it opens so we were able to get seated right away. We have some picky eaters in our group so we figure Japanese food they will eat well most likely. Two of my nieces had udon and California rolls. They thought the udon was a bit chewy but the eldest niece gobbled up the California rolls. My daughter had the kid's meal teriyaki chicken plate with sauce on the side. The chicken was moist and lightly seasoned. Even without the teriyaki sauce, my daughter was eating it happily. I had a tempura and yakitori combo and a spider handroll. the meal was pretty good. We like the spider handroll. My husband had the salad with green dressing with his combo. Honestly, the green dressing didn't look too appetizing and he didn't want to eat it. When I tried it, I couldn't quite make out what it was. We would have prefer the regular ginger dressing. Overall, the service could be slow but the wait staff was friendly and nice. The food was passable and not the best but it satisfies our hunger after coming down from Big Bear Lake. read more

I've been going to Tokyo Sushi for over a decade and they are my go-to sushi spot! The food is delicious, always good quality. The pricing is reasonable, very worth it. The service is fantastic, they're good people. And it's such a cute place. It's a small location so it could be easy to overlook but don't make that mistake; this place is the best!! I can't say enough good things about Tokyo Sushi, I would recommend it to anyone and everyone! read more
