Toyo Sushi - Stockton

This sushi restaurant is exceptional, and I can't believe it took us three years to find it. The miso soup is amazing, the sashimi is top-notch, and we absolutely love the rolls. We've dined in and also ordered takeout, and both experiences have been outstanding. When we ate there, it genuinely felt like we were guests rather than just customers. Service: Dine-in Meal type: Lunch.

On Sunday, July 30, 2023, we had such a delightful dinner and outstanding service during our last visit that we couldn’t resist returning tonight—making this our third visit in just two days! Why did we come back? The delicious food, generous portions, reasonable prices, and, most importantly, the exceptional servers! When we arrived, the restaurant wasn't too busy, allowing us to choose our own table. To our surprise, the same server from our previous visit came to greet us and remembered exactly what we had ordered, including our drinks. This kind of attentiveness speaks volumes about the service here. The staff consistently exceeded our expectations—always attentive, diligently cleaning, and frequently checking to ensure we had everything we needed. My son's drink was never left empty! My son ordered the same meal as last time, while I decided to try something new. I started with a cucumber salad, which I’ve experienced at other sushi places, but this one was exceptionally well prepared. I also ordered an appetizer-sized California roll and an appetizer-sized teriyaki chicken. Everything was delicious, and I left feeling completely satisfied! I can’t wait to come back soon. --- **First Visit** We dined on Friday evening just before the dinner rush and found the atmosphere quite relaxed. However, by the time we finished, the restaurant was packed with no tables available. Both my son and I chose the $16.95 dinner special, which included a selection of three items. I opted for tempura, a California roll, teriyaki chicken, steamed rice, and a salad. It was a fantastic deal! The only downside was the tempura; the batter was a bit soggy and didn’t taste fresh. Next time, I’ll be sure to request it served hot and fresh. My son decided on the teriyaki chicken and swapped one item for an extra California roll. Even though the rolls are smaller than average, it’s still an excellent deal for $17. He also enjoyed the rice and salad. The service was top-notch, with all the servers being friendly and cheerful. We are eagerly looking forward to our next visit!

This is definitely my favorite sushi restaurant. The owner is exceptionally warm and personally greets every guest who walks in. The sushi is consistently excellent. I highly recommend the Crazy Monkey and Bad Boy rolls; those are our favorites. I've tried a number of other rolls, and they’ve all been fantastic. The service is always friendly and welcoming too.

Toyo Sushi has quickly become not only my favorite spot for sushi in Stockton but also one of my favorite restaurants anywhere! The sushi is fresh and absolutely delightful. What truly amazes me, though, is the level of customer service. On just our second visit, they remembered that I prefer soy wraps instead of the usual seaweed for my rolls. Even months later, they still know my preferences. It's rare to find places like this these days. Although it looks like a small, unassuming place across from Starbucks, in my opinion, it doesn’t get any better for sushi in Stockton.
