Sushi Kami has quality sushi and the workers here are so friendly. I love their rolls and their nigiri. They have a bar area and general seating area. My favorite rolls are the Double Albacore, Spanish, and Samurai. They have a great selection of nigiri. I love their Salmon, Salmon Belly, and Toro. They have high quality sushi that is flavorful and fresh. They also have solid desserts. The yuzu cheesecake and the macaron ice cream sandwich are great options. I recommend this spot if you love a mix of rolls and nigiri. They have plenty of tasty selections and their service is excellent.

After visiting my sister on the way home we decided to finally stop by and try this place out. Cute little spot. Service was great and the food was amazing! Everything was delicious and we wanted to keep trying more. The only thing I didn't like was the amount of wasabi on top of my uni since I don't like wasabi at all. But besides that everything was absolutely delicious. Even the kids loved the big selection of flavors for their dipping dots. We definitely will come back again.

I don't know how I've passed this place so many times since it's right next to my doctor's office and extremely close to the freeway. The parking lot is small, and only on a one way side of the street, but still worth making a trip in. I wasn't too hungry so my husband and I shared 2 rolls, nigiri and I couldn't pass up dessert! The rolls were good, we enjoyed both, but if we're honest, the clear star of the night was the fried onions that came with the samurai roll. If those are sold as an appetizer they'd run out of onions so quickly they were addicting! We couldn't stop snacking on them, as they were the perfect appetizer, especially with some spicy Mayo to dip them in. All of the fish was delicious what we tried and quality of the fish was perfect. Dessert we ordered the yuzu cheesecake. If you're a fan of citrus fruits I highly recommend this for dessert. It was very light, and perfect balance of sweet to tart flavors. Pretty sure my husband lost his slice of cheesecake to me, but absolutely worth it. The staff was extremely friendly and courteous, I can't wait to come back and visit to bring my friends here!

Started off sharing the edamame. Then ordered a bunch of very tasty rolls, including spicy tuna, spicy salmon and vegetable. Kept it coming with yellowtail and albacore sashimi, which I liked and had a good presentation. Tried some of the teriyaki chicken, which I wasn't a big fan of. Plenty of interior space for groups, small and large. The service on our visit was excellent. The parking is semi-hard-to-get-to if you're not exactly sure of where you're going, but is plentiful (especially in the evening).

Parking: lot Ambiance: casual Service: friendly staff and food did not take too long either. We came thursday at 6pm and no wait. Rolls were all tasty and a good size. A few rolls were different than ive tried like the mango touch roll and the mango was so smooth and sweet i really enjoyed this one! Lemon salmon is normally my go to but the lemon here was a bit bitter. Would def come back to try out more!

The restaurant located in a corner plaza, and got there seated around 6pm right after I arrived. And inside like fast food place, simple decoration, not a lot of diners but good traffic on takeouts. Ordered the chirashi , and it comes with complimentary miso soup, those went very well. The fish looks really good, the tastes needs a little moisture. Meanwhile the sushi rice was a little dry for me that day. Other than that , no complaints. Great place for fast and good quality fish, the price is little higher than I expected ($30 total after tax) .

The Atmosphere was quiet before the 7pm dinner rush. We were the only table before dinner service and caught the first few innings of the Padres game. The menu options are good and they also have premium special items. We got the salmon roll, Philadelphia roll, & salmon handroll for the kids. They had no complaints. Fresh salmon. The calamari appetizer was so tender and easy to eat! We prefer this kind over the chewy tentacle kind. We requested easy sauce on the specialty rolls to prevent the rolls from being drenched/overpowered. It was perfect! I wasn't expecting the "fried" onions on the samurai roll to be full portion of onion tempura! It was delicious. The oysters were also yum too!

First time trying out this sushi place, everything was very good and the staff was very attentive! Ordered the lemon roll w/ salmon, toro sashimi, uni nigiri, assorted nigiris, hamachi Kama, tuna handroll & salmon cut roll. The toro and uni was my favorite! Fresh wasabi is also the best! I can see this place becoming a regular for me!
