Nara Sushi was a pleasant surprise on a drive through Folsom. We were looking for a late lunch and…read moredecided to give it a try. Since it wasn't very busy when we arrived, we were seated right away. The dining room is fairly large, with a mix of tables, booths, and counter seating. Each table has a tablet for electronic ordering, but we decided to go old-fashioned and order through our server. We started with a large hot sake and six pieces of gyoza, asking our server to hold the entrées until we finished. The sake hit the spot and paired nicely with the gyoza. The gyoza tasted good but was just a bit harder than we'd like. For the main meal, I ordered a bento box with nigiri sushi and tempura, while the others chose a salmon teriyaki bento box and a Spicy Yellowtail Roll. My nigiri tasted fresh and nicely prepared. I also tried a piece of the Spicy Yellowtail Roll and found it to have a nice flavor profile. The salmon teriyaki was clean and sweet, with a natural salmon flavor, and was tender and juicy. The portions were generous, making for a satisfying meal, and everyone enjoyed their food, although my companions thought the tempura was a bit too oily. Despite the slightly firm gyoza and oily tempura, the good sake, generous portions, and relaxed atmosphere made for a very enjoyable lunch. The highlight for me was sipping the remaining sake and enjoying the nigiri.

Great sushi and great service…read more I've been here a couple times and also ordered to go; I have always been pleased with the quality of their food and the kindness of their staff. Two times, we have gone with our kids when they were infants and toddlers. The staff was very kind and patient with them and found a place where we could all sit without waking the baby. They have a great happy hour and their sushi is delicious. They give great cuts of fish and each roll is unique and tasty. My father in law LOVES their sesame chicken bento box too.

We visited our friends here in Folsom. And one of our…read morefriends treated us at Hisui Sushi. I read that it is a popular spot known for its impressive food presentation. The staff are friendly, the restaurant is clean, I used their restroom and it's clean. I always do this coz this is really important to me. If they treat the restroom really good that says about the food they serve as well. Their decor is simply nice and beautiful as well. The menu offers a variety of delicious options, and not too pricey. However, I just learned about their AYCE sushi when I read the reviews the next day. Wish we had known before we ordered so that we can try it. We appreciate the experience, attentive service, and their high-quality food. They even put orchid flower on a couple of the plates we ordered as a decor. Some staff recommended for us trying the Chirashi Don bowl or innovative sushi rolls but we declined. Parking is free and ample. Next to Ranch 99 so you can go after you eat if you need to go groceries. Highly recommended.

Phoned in a takeout order. There was a bit of confusion over name-description of items I was…read moreordering, but in the end, my order came out exactly as I wanted. The order was ready in about 15 minutes, as estimated. I ordered the Spicy Ramen, but skipped the egg and pork (and requested extra veggies in their place). They did seem to give extra veggies, and the bowl was loaded with spinach and mushroom slices, along with several fish cakes and peppers. The Ramen noodles were cooked well, and I enjoyed eating everything, except the broth itself (not much flavor, and salty, to my taste). My husband looked at photos here on Yelp, and found one labeled "Stir fried veggie udon". That isn't on the online menu, and when I tried to order it, I was told that it was Veggie Udon (which is usually cooked in broth) "stir-fried in Teriyaki sauce" (not on the menu). And indeed it was. He loved it. The Teriyaki sauce was not overly sweet (like many other places). The stir-fry was well done (not oily), with a very good selection of veggies, and some tofu. The veggies and noodles were cooked to perfection. It was a big hit for him. Prices were quite reasonable, and the few people I interacted with were very pleasant. It was a very nice lunch experience.

Disclaimer: My reviews are intended to provide an honest account of both the positives and…read morenegatives of my overall experience at a restaurant, not just my personal food preferences. Taste is subjective, and what one person finds delicious, another may not. However, there are certain universal aspects of dining, such as customer service, cleanliness, communication, and overall hospitality, that every restaurant should strive to deliver. My reviews reflect the complete experience, not just what's on the plate. We decided to try Hasu Teriyaki & Sushi in Folsom for the first time and brought the kids along. Unfortunately, the experience got off to a rough start. When we walked in, there were several open tables, but no one greeted us or explained whether we should seat ourselves or wait to be seated. A female employee saw us but didn't provide any direction, so we picked a table ourselves. After waiting for a bit with no acknowledgment, I had to get up and grab menus on my own. We spent about eight minutes deciding what to order (never easy with kids), but still no one came by. After another several minutes, I finally walked the few feet to the register and asked, "Are we supposed to order here or at the table?" The response was simply, "Yes, order here." After placing my order, I was immediately prompted to add a tip before receiving any service, which is something I personally find frustrating. Then I grabbed our cups to fill our drinks myself, only to find the ice machine was out of ice. At that point, it felt like we were striking out on every opportunity for a good first impression. It appears there's only one employee handling both the register and the dining area, which may explain some of the confusion. If that's the system, it would really help to have a sign letting customers know to seat themselves and order at the counter. There are only about seven tables inside, but without any guidance, the dining experience is confusing for first-time visitors. Once the food arrived, it was presented nicely. I ordered the Rainbow Roll and Dragon Roll, and visually they looked great. Unfortunately, I found the flavors to be underwhelming. The sushi was very mild, and even the wasabi had almost no heat. I added far more wasabi than I normally would, yet it barely had any kick. For someone who really enjoys sushi, the overall flavor just didn't stand out. The kids' non-raw rolls were also just average. To her credit, the employee did check on us twice after the food arrived, and she was friendly. I think she recognized that I was frustrated after spending roughly 15 minutes in the restaurant without any acknowledgment or explanation of how ordering worked. Overall, the experience wasn't terrible, but it wasn't one that makes me eager to return. Between the confusing service, lackluster first impression, and sushi that was simply average, I'd probably look elsewhere next time.

Mikuni has several locations and they are always consistent in their quality of food. I like that they have their standard menu but also showcase some seasonal highlights and whatever fresh fish they might get in. But I've seriously never have had a bad meal at a Mikuni. This location follows the usual Mikuni decor and upbeat vibe. Seems like this location is very popular and is always busy. I some people stop here on their way to Tahoe if they are driving for a long distance. This time, we ordered a bunch of sushi for a birthday event at home. They have several different platter options and you can add on additional sets of nigiri. Came with a whole sealed container of soy sauce, a large portion of ginger and a VAT of wasabi (it was an extreme amount). We also ordered some simple Udons for the kids. It was a hit!

Edamame: Soybeans with Choice of Regular (Plain), Freaky (Seriously Seasoned) or Garlicky (garlic, lemon, cilantro, butter). We chose the Freaky, which was the edamame was tossed in a garlic and shichimi togarashi. So, it had a slight spice to it. They were really tasty. Beef Teriyaki: Stir fried beef and onion in teriyaki sauce with sesame seed. The beef was a bit chewy. Spicy Tuna Handroll: Spicy tuna, cucumber, sesame seeds.

I literally crave the spicy version we've always had before. Luckily I had the spiciness from the edamame dish and used some of that on it.

I do appreciate places that charge you less when you pay cash. I'm all for that idea and I understand it. I do feel like the prices are getting a little high. It would've been $25 for a five scoop bowl. Which seems to be a little pricey, even for poke. But I will continue to come here now and then, as I do, find the fish of great quality.
