I was in the mood for sushi today, so I did a quick search round my work area and this restaurant popped up. The reviews looked promising and it seemed easy enough to get to, so I figured I would give it a try.The place is clean and well organized, but on the small side. The ceiling is high, so sound is disseminated and it's easy to hold a conversation there. The staff is attentive and very friendly. There was a clipboard hanging on the door outside- you sign your name on the waitlist and wait to be seated. I was fortunate enough to be eating alone and was seated immediately.I decided on the bento box- my mind was tired and I didn't want to have to think too hard about what to eat. I chose the tempura and a California roll. The food arrived quickly and it was fantastic! Everything was so fresh and tasty. The tempura batter was cooked perfectly and I'm pretty certain that they used real crab meat in the California roll! I only had the 2-item bento box and I was fairly well stuffed! All that for under $10!I did take a look at the rest of the menu. They had a nice selection of rolls ranging in price, but it seemed that most of their rolls were right around $6! That is dang cheap! I do feel that I owe it to myself to come back again soon and try some of their rolls just to see how fresh their fish is, but if it is anything like my meal today, I won't be disappointed!

We were a large group that had a buffet dinner in one of the private rooms. It is an interesting place with exotic interior and with a beautiful front door. The various dishes were very tasty. But I was most impressed with the servers. They were refilling our water glasses constantly, the servers were efficient and our drink ordered were quickly brought to the table. They were helpful and friendly. They worked very hard to please everybody. Good job! I plan to return and try some of the dishes on the menu.

I was staying in Hayward for two nights and felt like sushi. So I checked on a number of websites and this place came up as highly recommended on a number of reviews. From the outside it looks rather inconspicuous and nondescript. It is a rather small restaurant, which was rather crowded when I was there. Fortunately I found one spot left at the bar and enjoyed one of the best sushi meals ever for a very fair price. Regulars most probably do hate me now for posting this online as I would want to keep this secret if it was on my doorstep. However, the food is simply too good for not being enjoyed by sushi lovers around the globe.

Because it is one of the bigger restaurants that serves dim sum outside of Oakland and locals have the hankering for dim sum and seafood dishes, it is one busy place since it opened. Be sure to come early when they open for dim sum (a line starts before they open 10 am). Likewise, be sure to book a reservation if you have a large party for dinner or arrive early when they first open for dinner service. Otherwise, you are in for a long wait.We had an early dinner reservation to celebrate a family member's birthday. We ordered individual dishes and not from the set menu for large parties. Their seafood was very fresh. We could not get enough of their version of sashimi. The other dishes were creative, savory and tasty.The decor of blue and gold was calming and soothing. As I write this review, they are expanding to the location next door, next to the JoAnn store.
We went there for lunch after church and order Fujian fried rice, black bean chicken chow fun with gravy (but no gravy) and Chinese broccoli with preserved meat; however, everything seemed bland with no fresh flavor. Maybe it's an off day and they forgot garlic and ginger!

Had early Saturday lunch here. Only had sashimi, karage, and 2 beverage. Perhaps we lucked out. The omakase sashimi was 14 pieces of good sized fish and all tender. And only $18! That is unusually good value. The karage was average. Service was fast and efficient but this was before noon.

Sushi Ichimoto is a family owned restaurant. We specialize in exquisite Japanese cuisine and providing an exceptional dinning experience to our guest. Our main focus is on the freshest sushi possible, but we do offer an assortment of traditional Japanese
We have been patrons of Ichimoto since they took over the space from Ray's. While I was sad to see Ray's go... I love the people who work at Ichimoto! They totally make the experience and make us feel like family! In addition to being open on Monday, which is often a rarity, the food is yummy and the experience is awesome!

China Bistro is a fabulous restaurant, in the heart of Hayward, their menu is excellent! Service is always great, their staff is very attentive. The honey walnut prawns are fabulous and their chow mien with chicken is excellent. Looking for a good lunch; chicken lettuce wraps and sizzling rice soup and your tummy will be quit continent. If your looking for a little flare to Chinese food, this is your place.

I had the Bento Dinner Box with Chicken Karaage, Sashimi, Rice and a Japanese Kirin Beer! The Chicken Karaage was "off the menu" and you had to ask for it if you wanted it. It's Japanese fried chicken. Always a safe place to go for a meal when you don't want to cook. Good food and good service. They treat you as if they actually liked you! I'm always pleased at the food they put out.

R&D is my aunt & uncle's Lunch Spot of choice, and I have no complaints about joining them. The menu is extensive and the food excellent. Service is prompt and, being with regulars, actually familiar. Unless you are super hungry, order a small rather than a large, portions are generous.
