Best Japanese Restaurants in Pleasant Hill

My son and went to celebrate our birthdays on 2/17/25 . We were pleased with how fast we were seated . The waiter passed out water and soup and salad’s right away . The cook did his thing we were pleased .

We as a family had very good experience. This is our first time trying sushi and the stuff made sure we were well served and taken care off. The service seemed very personal which made the overall experience very good. Food was very good also !!

Overall 4-5 stars, our server was a bit overwhelmed, which initially resulted in spotty service initially. Thus the 3 stars for service

Everything was perfect Chef was awesome our server was amazing Tho we went for a regular dinner out There was a few toddlers running around and crying yelling. Which made us leave sooner than we wanted.

Thoroughly enjoyed our meal and I would definitely return. It was a busy Saturday night so the service was on the slower side - but all very, very polite. Excellent range of Japanese sashimi, nigiri, udon, hand rolls, and a la carte - we had the chef’s nigiri tasting menu options for 5 and 8 pieces. The fish liver appetizer was sold out or else we would have had that too. Plus the “avocado bomb” appetizer, which arrived after our sushi. We tried a couple of sakes too. Everything was super flavorful and umami-rich. I will be craving it until I can have it again.
