Mutsumi Sushi

Update 2024: Still grrrrreat!!!! Update 2023: Still my fav in the valley!! THE best sushi in pretty much the whole valley! Traditional Japanese sushi. Great selection of fish and quality.

As good or close to as good as Omino was. I think it’s a bit overpriced but it seems everything is overpriced nowadays. That being said the sushi is excellent, service is great and you should try it. You’ll be happy.

Neighborhood great Sushi place. The downfall is that they never pick up the phone for you to place an order. You have to go in person and wait for your order or eat there. This at times get very frustrating.

My son decided to treat me to dinner this past Sunday. Knowing that I love sushi and am very particular about it, he chose this restaurant. He had heard great things about it. What he heard was true! This place was a hidden gem. The first thing that I noticed was that even though it was in a little shopping center, the parking was plentiful and the spaces offered plenty of room. I am always nervous about getting my car scratched in tight spaces and I did not need to worry about that. As we walked in, we were immediately seated. The atmosphere was very nice. It was well lit, which I enjoy because it makes it easier for me to read the menu and see the food. I also enjoyed the fact that it was not loud. We were able to carry on a conversation even though there were many other patrons there. The waitress was always available, yet never hovering. We selected several rolls and my son chose some nigiri. I am not usually a fan of nigiri. I tend to prefer rolls with their toppings and sauces. My son suggested that we share all of the dishes. I agreed, but thought that I would not really like the nigiri. Well, I was wrong. The nigiri at Mutsumi Sushi was AMAZING! I loved the toppings and flavoring on each one. The flavors were subtle, but distinct. I was actually blown away. I will no longer avoid nigiri...at least at this restaurant. I was getting full after our first round of food, but it was so delicious that we ordered more. That was equally as delicious. Two of my favorite rolls were the Cajun Deluxe Roll and the Chatsworth Roll. We topped our meal off with some Tempura Ice Cream. It was the perfect ending to a perfect meal! I will definitely be returning to this lovely restaurant.

Went with my mom to this place last Sunday, and we had an amazing time! Mutsumi is located in a perfect little intersection, and we had no trouble finding parking! The hostess was very friendly, and found us a table immediately. While we were deciding on what to order, the servers gave us some great recommendations. I even got to try some new things, such as the baked scallops on the B.S.C. Roll, and King Mackerel. But even my usual favorites such as salmon nigiri and seared tuna were quite delicious! I loved the care and attention that went into the plating and garnishes. Every little crunch, bit of spice, or savoriness added up to make each item stand out. My mom and I shared a few rolls, and a handful of nigiri and never felt like I was breaking the bank or my belt! I would definitely come back here with friends to try out many of their other specials. The place even has a classy enough atmosphere to come here on a date or business meeting, for sure!

Love the sushi and great happy hour special!

This place still has the ambiance of Amino, as always consistently good food. The portions are large, never disappointed. Still has the Covid limited tables, but worth the wait. Vegetarian options: If you don't mind the frying, meatless sushi is possible, tempura is tasty, noodles, miso soup. You can have a good meal.
