Best Sushi in the Lodi area by far! Fresh and perfect. I'm so spoiled by their sushi that I can't go anywhere else. And believe me. I have tried EVERY Sushi place around. read more

THE BEST SUSHI IN LODI! If you're looking for a good and inexpensive traditional Japanese restaurant you've found it. Lodi is lucky to have one of the best sushi chefs in the Central Valley. Sit at the bar and just let them make you lunch or dinner. You can't go wrong here. read more

Great sushi here. Probably the best in lodi. All of the fish tasted super fresh. Good service, nice owner.

Absolutely delicious, fresh, and reasonably priced. Service was top notch as well. I am a serious food snob and never rate any restaurants a five.....until now. Hands down the best sushi in Lodi. Try the lomi lomi roll. Best thing i've eaten in months. read more

If authentic Japanese you deserve and want, around here Yume is your place; if you desire less than authentic, you have other places to choose from. While a but pricey, the taste, freshness and quality you get is worth your money. Ask for the secrete meal of the day, if available, enjoy. read more

This is the best sushi in the valley... This is a cute little place that has really come a long way. I love the tempera roll and the Phillie roll here. The flavors are so clean and fresh! The prices are a little pricey but worth the quality that they give you. The staff is friendly and they always fulfill my togo order fast. If you are looking for good sushi this place wont disappoint. read more

The best Japanese restaurant I have experienced in Lodi so far. The service was satisfactory - the waitresses are very friendly and thoughtful every single moment during our dinner. The food was excellent - the seafood was fresh and delicous. I highly recommend the Dragon Roll. Hope to try more dishes next time. read more

Yume and Haru are tied for the best sushi everrrrrr. I love how fresh the sashimi is here! The lomi lomi appetizer is perfection and the owner is always friendly and helpful. They have an assortment of beers and it changes frequently. Every time I eat there I discover a new beer to enjoy. Do yourself a favor and RUN there. read more

Absolute favorite Japanese food in town! It did not help that I worked across the street and literally would be there every other day. The teriyaki chicken bowl is a MUST! It comes with grilled onions and grilled mushrooms over a bed of steamed rice. Asparagus roll is really good as well! Everyone that works there is super nice and they'll remember you after your 2nd visit read more

Our family goes to Yume all the time. It is definitely our go to restaurant! We like to get the teriyaki salmon, tempura and Saba plate (the Saba is not on the menu) and their squid vinegar appetizer. Masa has been so kind to our family and the Buddhist church so we enjoy seeing him as well! The only critique I have is the service. When Yume first opened it was great, but now we have to continuously ask our servers for refills on beverages and etc. All in all one of our favorite places in Lodi. read more

This is a great place. Never disappointed with the spicy dragon roll. Great service and quality food.

Love this place. They focus on their fresh fish and good veggies, not like the latest sushi restaurants that saturate their rolls in fancy sauces. I would go here every day if I could! It is very well priced and the owners have great customer service. read more

one of the best meals i have had in a long time. service on point. appetizers and sushi rolls were AMAZING. my server recommended the rice beer which was so refreshing. it's a saturday night and we were served and ate within an hour. so impressed and will definitely make this a regular spot read more

Yume - Japanese Near Me - Lodi, California

See all

So refreshing to go finally get the combination of friendly service, quick service, and good food! We will be choosing Yume from now on.

This restaurant is the best sushi restaurant in town. Menu items are very reasonably priced--ignore the reviews that say it's too expensive, they must be buying their sushi at Costco. I know of one place that is cheaper, but the quality of sashimi is nowhere near the quality of this place. The owner was the head chef at CoCoRo's and he left to open this place. This is a sushi place I can get behind because it's not all frat guys doing sake bombs and Americanized sushi rolls with too much sauce. It is a quality establishment with great service and excellent food. Monk fish liver FTW. read more

Consistently among the best sushi I've ever had. Very high quality and excellent service. I love asking for the chef's recommendation and letting him create something unique for me. It is always delicious! You won't find better sushi in the area. read more

We were so impressed by Yume. The wait staff was very attentive, and the food was AMAZING!!! (The tuna ceviche and squid was my favorite!) The prices are very fair for the quality of sushi you are getting, and the atmosphere is very comfortable. Next time I think I'll sit at the sushi bar so I can watch them make all those creations! Definitely a place I will go to time and time again, and also bring along my friends who appreciate REAL sushi, and not that garbage you buy in the grocery store. ;) read more

The spicy tuna roll had several scales in it and the fish was poor quality. The California roll was ok. Oz and Shangri La are better choices for sushi. read more

This place was fantastic. Wonderful service. Delicious sushi rolls. A great local spot.

My primary reason for stopping here was to try their ramen. You may not know this but I am a big fan of noodles no matter which country they're from. We started with a couple of small plates; Yume prawns and spicy lomi lomi. Both were excellent in flavor and presentation. We also had an Eschigo micro brew; also excellent. Our ramen followed and I was quite impressed with the tonkatsu broth although the bowl itself could have been a bit bigger. The noodles were fresh and tasty but the chasu should have cooked longer to improve texture. Overall a nice experience and one I will repeat. Yay Lodi finally has a noodle house! read more

It's really a cozy and elegant gem of the town with friendly customer service and delicious food. It's been my favorite for years.

Yume is definitely my Lodi Area Favorite for Japanese food. Recently, they started offering a "Dinner for Two" for $35 which includes: Edamame Gyoza (best tasting around!) Miso Soup 2 entrees (they even let you do minor substitutions, which is awesome!) 2 mochi balls for dessert. My wife loves their SPICY TERIYAKI sauce, last night she had the Salmon. I love the Crunchy Rainbow Roll. I've had many different items from their menu as well as specials over the last few years and I have yet to have anything that wasn't up to par. (I still love the pumpkin tempura and the eggplant appetizers!) Fish is always fresh and never questionable... (Ever had sashimi that you were afraid to put it in your mouth? Well that has never happened here!) The service is almost always excellent: prompt and attentive. The place is always clean. They have a wide array of Sake to try. They always have relaxing dinner music playing softly in the background which adds to the family friendly atmosphere. (As opposed to at least one place in town where I leave with a headache after sitting through 45+ mins of head thumping hip hop - Not to say I don't like dance music, but save it for the club scene...Needless to say, I don't go that place any more) The owner is very friendly and always makes sure to step out from behind his sushi bar to make sure all of his guests are having an enjoyable meal. read more

Been here twice and I love it! The pumpkin tempura is so good and every roll I've had has been great. They have a good wine list too.

Everything tasted very fresh. We had the red Dragon roll (hot!), Dragon roll, Caterpillar roll and Snowcrab California. All of them were presented beautifully. The Udon soup was okay, just some seaweed strips and noodle in a tasty broth. The beef teriyaki with rice was flavorful. The service was attentive for a late Saturday night before closing time. We will be back. :) read more

Been here numerous times and it's always delicious. (We really like the beef teriyaki - one of the best I've had!) The service is great and the prices are reasonable. What more can you ask for? Guess that's why we keep coming back. read more

My favorite roll here is the crunchy rainbow roll. One thing that makes this place stand out is the sashimi because it tastes fresh and the cuts are good sized portions. I also enjoy their mixed tempura whenever I'm in the mood for it. This place manages to make the perfect tempura: light, not too greasy, and a very crispy outer shell. The area is fairly quiet and I enjoy coming back here again whenever I'm in the area. read more

I have a love-hate relationship with sushi, so this place getting 5 stars is a big deal. Everything here is very fresh and flavorful.

Great place for sushi. Good presentation and service. Clean place and tasty food. This is my new favorite place for sushi in lodi by far. Kinda pricey but worth it in my opinion. Maybe I'm giving this place such a good review because I was with good company, who knows. read more

Great Restaurant!! Amazing sushi!! And best of all great owner and staff!!! Very friendly and caring ..

I have been here a few times now, I love this place. Reasonably priced menu. Top notch service, and great food. The Sashimi Salad is delicious. I also tried the Spicy Salmon Roll this time. While it was very fresh and tasty, it was lacking on the spicy. Hardly the end of the world, I'll ask them to kick it up a bit next time. read more

What a treat! This place is worth the visit! Fresh fish, good service and pleasant atmosphere. Great stop for lunch!

I had a great meal tonight... I used to work with sushi so I understand quality and they have amazing staff as well the waitresses are super friendly. read more

Great staff! Excellent authentic Japanese cuisine! Happy girl! Good service and sake too!

This place was really good. I was surprised with how much food i got, we went with the meal for 2 for 35 dollars and it was a lot of food. We had really great service too, our sever was really nice and very funny, I will defiantly be going back there again and again. read more

Nice, nice, nice!!! Great service and attention to detail. We will for sure be back..worth the short drive from Galt.

They don't thoroughly list what is all included in the meals and i seen a cockroach in the back while waiting for my meal.....

This wonderful little restaurant is easily the best Japanese in town ... the Salmon Tempura is absolutely perfect and the California rolls are easily the best anywhere in the area. They do something with the rice to make it authentic and delicious. The food is fresh and cooked and presented to perfection. The service is top notch. The owner recognizes regulars as does the pleasant waitress. Quietly elegant atmosphere and pleasant music and ambiance. Somehow every dish is plated with a flair that emphases quality. I see one review suggested they lower the price and save the quality for evenings ... are you kidding me. They kill with every meal. read more

My daughter and I had our favorite sushi roll, spicy crunchy scallop roll, it was fabulous! My mom had tempura shrimp and immediately said she would be back. Same with my youngest daughter and her boyfriend. The service was impeccable. I will definitely be back! read more

Meh, the food here is just okay, but the prices are on the lower size which is a nice plus. I ordered the teriyaki chicken and tofu and split a spicy tuna roll. The chicken and tofu wasn't anything special. It sort of tasted like something I could make myself. The tuna in the roll didn't taste terribly fresh. It tasted fishy and not in a good way. I get you're eating raw fish, but I've eaten plenty of tuna rolls and this one just didn't taste great. Service was good and the chef checked in on the table. I'm not saying it was bad, it just wasn't anything special. read more

Don't let the hole in the wall strip mall fool you. This place is pretty tasty and reasonably priced. The service is awesome. We came in on Valentine's Day (no reservation) and thankfully they were open (they're typically closed on Sunday's). We ordered a few rolls, Nigiri, sake, edamame, and even paid an $8 corkage fee to open one of our bottles of wine we just picked up from a local winery. All in all we walked out under $70 for the 2 of us - including tax & tip! I can certainly see us going back here next time we're in the Lodi area. read more
