    Sushi San is always an incredible experience. We had Chris as a server, and he went above and beyond to give us a memorable experience. Perhaps my favorite restaurant ever. A can’t miss.

    Food was delicious! Menu has lot of different items, not a ton of sushi options, but the spicy tuna & spicy salmon were delicious!! Good ambience: on a cold Thursday night, the place was full. We ate at the bar. The bartender was friendly, nice & very attentive filling our water. I would definitely recommend.

    The food was some of the best food we’ve ever had - we tried Wagyu tartare for the first time and it was so great. I would suggest this place for sure!

    Outrageously priced cuisine for the quality. The ambience is nice but food is ok as well as the value.

    Third visit to this location. It doesn’t disappoint even after several visits. The Tako Tacos are a favorite. The 12 piece nigiri is a winner too.

    First time diners and we loved it. Had 5 different sushi rolls and some special rice and all was fresh and delicious. The energy there was so positive and we enjoyed the whole scene.
