Sushi 29 - Santa Barbara

This place is almost like a hole-in-the-wall, as it?s not in main downtown aka lower state. But what a find! My boyfriend and I were looking for a sushi place when our go-to wasn?t open. We decided to try this one out and now it?s our favorite! Prices are fair and roll selection is great. Their house rolls are so unique and delicious, and I love the soy paper they use. Great and friendly service as well! Highly recommend!

Great options for a sushi restaurant ? has more than just sushi for those looking for some authentic Japanese dishes. Great appetizers, great sushi choices, good selection of Sake and Japanese beers, and above all wonderful atmosphere if you are looking for a quiet, calming place to have lunch or dinner. Service is good, not perfect, but they?re accommodating and polite, so it?s what you?d expect of a good restaurant. I always choose to come back here because of their wide variety and wonderful location!

Avoid. Review:Sushi: American-style sushi of low quality here.1 Sushi rolls and starter of poppers consist of low quality ingredients, small portions, and dressed with strong tasting Americanised sauce that shouldn’t be near sushi (all too common sadly .2 salmon nigiri is cut with dodgy knife-work (see picture and I strongly suspect the fish has been frozen (appearance, served temperature being cold, texture .Service: Front of staff have mixed experience levels from the completely beginner so the medium-tenure. Low communication skills and staff took no notice of the low quality food being left behind when asking for the bill.Kitchen:The kitchen is open which would in most circumstances is a positive thing (love it! , however sadly in this case revealed the amateur, unspecialised kitchen operation and mobile phone usage by undisciplined staff with a lack of purpose. Poor quality control, no specific training in Japanese sushi preparation noticeable in any of the staff along the cook line including the cook who’s designated to prepare the fish.Price: expensive, 75 dollars for 1.25 person dinner.

We will definitely visit here again next time we are in SB!!!!Kid-friendliness: My son is 11 and the staff was so patient with him.
