Azukar Sushi was a remarkable find in Sacramento Ca. While my Daughter and I were on a College tour trip thru California. This small strip mall Sushi Restaurant is very unassuming, yet simply elegant, its marble tables with white paper..the maybe 8 tables were all completely filled. The magic of Azukar is simple fair done exceptionally well. Their selection of Nigiri to their Wide variety of Rolls and Sashimi were impeccable in flavor and execution. The specialties of the house and their use of spice is an absolute symphony on the palate. Favorites of the day included The Arizona Roll, All the House special Carpaccios and the Salmon Nigiri and the Spicy Assorted Sashimi. Their fish is fresh and melts in your mouth, all accompanying sauces were all incredible. Will definitely be revisiting whenever in Northern California and highly recommend a visit, you will not be disappointed!!!

Excellent food, good prices, and friendly staff. Atmosphere is calm and relaxing. Will definitely be coming back! Edit : I've gone back. Still delicious. Even on a Friday night, service was prompt and we got our food in a very reasonable amount of time.

Have enjoyed this wonderful establishment since first moving to Natomas. The service is amazing, the owner is beyond friendly, and the fish is some of the best I have ever had in Sac. We'll be coming back long after we move, all you can eat with chef special rolls!! You can't beat it, so thank you for being the best damn sushi in Sac!

Food is good. Servers are nice. It would be nice if they told you they added 18% gratuity prior to placing the un-itemized bill on the table. We went there for lunch and thought the bill seemed high. We then asked for the itemized check only to realize they already added a tip. We were going to tip anyway but it should’ve been mentioned by someone.

Everything was EXCELLENT. My kids and husband love it. The poke salad brought me back to Hawaii Poke Salad. Good place for dinner. And so far it was our 2nd time here and it did not disappoint. Service was great too. Waitress was very sweet and nice.

I recently dined here with a group of 17, and we ordered a lot of sushi. We were very pleased with the flavors and variety of choices available. However, the dessert didn't quite match up to the quality of the sushi. The deep-fried banana was too soggy, possibly because the banana was too ripe. The donuts and sesame balls were average. Despite this, the service and serving time were impressively fast, and the staff managed to keep up with our large group efficiently.

It is ok place to try AYCE. There are some dishes limited one time order. But there is a question I did not ask. If people come there in the future, they should ask what mean on "Only can order one time on this item." Is it for a person or for a table. !!!

Very good sushi for the value. All you can eat for $32 bucks for good quality and options. Not the best service but value wise is good.

TL;DR Food: 4/5 🍣 Service: 2/5 👩🏻‍🍳 What we got Gyoza ☆☆☆☆☆ Some of the most delicious Gyoza I’ve ever had Volcano Roll ☆☆☆☆☆ We got this roll to experiment with something new but we ended up being extremely impressed - highly recommend Lion King Roll ☆☆☆☆ Not the best lion king i’ve ever had for sure but decent for the sacramento area Dragon Roll ☆☆☆ This roll was just ok Overall, def recommend this place for some good sushi in the sacramento area

Friendly and greets as you walk in and leave. Food was ready as I got there. Price is reasonable. The food was really good. I liked that the tempura wasn't all soggy by the time I got home. They made holes in the box to air it out. The sushi was flavorful and a lot. I can normally eat two dishes and a couple but I only at one and was full. I'm not sure which dish is which so I can't label them properly.

Ordered delivery last night. All the sushis were big and neat looking... almost everything were good except for 1 which tasted off... upon investigation and after differnet individuals tried it, we all came upon one conclusion... that the avocado was overriped and stale... aside from that we still enjoyed the other sushis and happy for the free donuts which were really good... just wished the sushis were labeled because it took a while for my family to figure out which is whose LOL!

I do not recommend this place. The 3 stars is for the speed of service, easy to eat portions, and relative affordability for AYCE. Food comes super fast, at the cost of being poorly assembled sometimes. It’s 5 pieces per roll, so you can try a variety without feeling too burdened. The cost for weekends or dinner is $33/person. The food is just not very good. The worst part is that they can’t even cook rice right. RICE. At a SUSHI restaurant! It’s insanely dense and unpleasant to chew and of course they’d add sooo much of it to everything. The fish was consistently bland with some highs and lows. The fish on the nigiri wasn’t bad, but it doesn’t taste great either. I forgot to take a picture of this one but I did enjoy the salmon in the spicy assorted sashimi side specifically. It’s a nice pile of cubed salmon, tuna, and yellowtail. My partner ate the yellowtail and it had a mushy, poorly thawed frozen texture. Tried the 49ers roll, azukar roll, and bay scallop roll. 49ers is ok but the ratio of ingredients to rice is poor. Azukar roll was my favorite, probably cause it’s a fried maki roll and didn’t have an awful outer layer of rice lol. The bay scallop roll is extremely umami and a little sickening, but it’s fine with sriracha. The selection is not very diverse. Lastly we ordered sesame balls, it’s nice cause they can be ordered individually. They’re ok, I like how they’re petite. We asked what the donut on their menu is and the server said it’s just a normal sugar donut hole fyi. You can just go ahead and disregard the Asian food opinions of everyone raving about this being the best sushi ever lol. Just go literally anywhere else run by the Japanese or Koreans. Not trying to sound like a snob, I love cheap slightly low quality sushi. But this is NOT it. Don’t take your Asian friends and don’t take someone here for their first time. Sorry. The inside of the restaurant and servers were nice.

I swear I think people are lying. This is not good sushi. The fish is waaaaaay too warm and the rice shouldn’t be hot on the sushi roll. And the water literally tastes like they get it out the faucet from the bathroom. No amount of lemon can save it. The sushi rolls look pretty but don’t let that fool you. It is not worth it but then again how can it be for $22.95 a person.
