9. Amami Sushi
Reviewed By WilliamC5851
The restaurant was packed with clients at 7pm. Mainly regulars ordering their specials for the day, hamachi Kama (yellow tail cheeks), sashimisâ and Omakase (10 pieces of nigiri sushi) recommended by the Chef. Tempura and special sushi rolls also popular. My Wife chose the beef teriyaki combo with spicy tuna roll. It tasted spicy! Price was mid range and the environment small but functional! Service was quick and attentive.

We had a vegetarian roll, a spinach side dish with some delectable sauces, a great duck appetizer, and our favorite tempura. Everything was freshly made and sparkling with creative presentation. Yum! This is a great location, a stoneâs throw from the transit center with BART and Caltrain.

We ate at Mokutanya on a weeknight. I really like how the tables are divided by glass - we had a couple people in our party who are hard of hearing and this prevented a lot of background noise. The food was awesome! We ordered a variety of dishes and liked them all except the octopus in wasabi (slimy texture). The rice came after the meal and then we tried a couple of the delicious desserts. The location is in a strip mall - only downside was parking (there wasnât any when we arrived). Bathroom is for all genders and has enclosed toilets (not stalls).Thank you! We are so happy we could make sure your whole party had a delicious meal. Glad you loved everyhting you tried, including our delicious desserts! We hope you'll be back for another wonderful visit soon.Best,Jason

Had lunch with a friend recently and had a great time. The food was very tasty and not as hot as I thought it would be. I recommend the Chongqing Spicy Chili Chicken [spicy] and the Authentic Lanzhou Noodles, Korean Jjamppong version. Service was good and parking is easy. Place lloks clean and uncluttered. I'll be back.
5. Sushi Kei
Reviewed By SpazCat
This small, family run Japanese restaurant rated 4 stars for its service, great selection of sushi, and drinks. I came early on a Thursday evening and found a spot at the sushi bar. (Note â They do have a $25 / person minimum at the sushi barâ¦.otherwise you are welcome to sit at one of the tables.)I recommend the House Special Roll (Price $18) that has a mixture of fish and roe. The sushi and sashimi was excellent with not too much rice on the nigiri. Sushi Kei is definitely worth a second and third trip. I would have been back for a second trip on Saturday, but the restaurant was full â which should tell you how good it is.

Wonderful, authentic sushi. A warm, welcoming staff and small, meticulous space. (Not great parking but el Camino will do). Excellent sushi, wonderful hamachi Kama and chicken karage and tempura. Great wakame salad and edamame. Itâs a very special place. Pricey but totally worth it.

Stopped for quick lunch on the way to the airport. Beautiful inside and service is great. Menu is extensive with sashimi, special rolls, donburi, udon, hand rolls etc. Good sake selection too. Albacore sashimi, spicy salmon hand roll, soft shell crab roll and mixed sashimi roll were just all delicious and beautifully presented. Tea and salad and soup come with some choices. Prices are very reasonable. This will be our new favorite restaurant, for sure

We were visiting from Hawaii and were in Millbrae overnight after our flight into/out of SFO. We ate here twice and both times the food and service were excellent. The first time we ate here it was just my husband and me. He had the Sukiyaki and I had the Chicken Teriyaki meal. My husband enjoyed the Sukiyaki and said it was very filling and the sauce/soup base was very flavorful. The Chicken Teriyaki was tender and delicious. We both ordered the miso soup, while he had a fresh green salad as a side and I had the white rice, which was fluffy and of good quality. The second time we were here, my husband and I ordered the same dishes and our two sons accompanied us and they each had the Chicken Katsu Curry and a side of Tempura. They said the curry was great and the tempura was crisp and not oily. They both enjoyed their meals. The owner Kaoru and our server Thomas were so pleasant, welcoming and efficient. They kept checking to see if we were enjoying our meal. Both times the restaurant filled quickly with other patrons who appeared to be regulars, which to us says a lot about the quality of the food and service.

Zen Bistro is a quiet, modern and comfortable place to enjoy very good Japanese food. The menu offers a wide range of tasty options. On this visit I had katsudon, which was well prepared. Street parking is limited, but there is a good sized public lot to the back (east) side of the restaurant.
