My husband and I have tried several sushi establishments in the Tri-City area, and Satomi is our go-to place.They have 2 locations, one on Thornton and one on Mowry. The Mowry location is the better if the two, we think. They are always busy on weekends and come prepare to wait a while. Tables do move fairly quick.The service is very hit or miss, your food may come out in bizarre order, they may even mess up your order, but their fish is always fresh here. They do have some specials from time to time, so do ask the servers. However, don't expect them to know the prices of those specials. It is a family and kids friendly place, with fresh fish and plenty of cooked items to choose from for those who are not a fan of raw stuff.

We've been using this family Sushi shop for over 10 years now. They have a rabid fan base and it is always top notch preparation for their dishes. It's small inside, reminding me very much of an authentic Japanese restaurant. Parking really is tough around dinner hour because of the small lot and several food shops in the strip mall. I would not try to go there on a Friday or Saturday evening as your first visit. Although they are very attentive and accommodating, the size makes it hard to enjoy the true ambiance of a nice family shop. Otherwise, the sushi itself is a really good take out option. On busy nights, It might be helpful if someone can drop you off long enough to pick up your take out order and just drive around until you re-emerge with you feast.

I have eaten here before but I was quite disappointed today. My biggest concern was that the rice was not properly cooked. It had been made with too much water and was gooey. I actually like eating plain j-rice but this rice was just no good. That carried over into the sushi that my wife had (california roll from the bento) which was also gooey. It was also very irregular in shape (square ones and round ones, medium sized one and large ones) that I seriously wonder about the skill of the sushi chef. The tempura was not crisp. It appeared that it had been put into oil that was not hot enough and so absorbed oil into the food. Tonkatsu was very crisp. In fact it was so crisp that when they cut it, the breading fell off of the pork and it ended up with about half of the breading just lying on top op the pork. All in all, not a good effort.

Our local favorite Japanese restaurant. Favorite rolls/sashimi include - Super Lion King, SF giants, A's, rainbow, and chirashi,The staff and suishi chefs are welcoming and very accommodating to their guests. Suishi bar and tv's scattered in restaurant for sports buffs but volume low enough to carry on a conversation. Complimentary extras may include - edamame, calamari ringlets, gyoza, side of salmon (depending upon order amount and eating frequency), and the best green tea ice cream.
