I had a really cool time here !!! The chefs are amazing so kind and understanding. I was losing my voice and he was very patient and the second Chef was really fast . I think this isn’t favorite sushi place now ! The staff really looked out for me and I don’t think they k pa How much it meant to me . Sometimes I show up places and people treat me negatively for no particular reason but I felt the love in there food

Ordered Pink Lady from Specialty, Rock n Roll and 2 maki s for lunch. Rolls had good amt of fresh sashimi in them and were tasty. Staff was very helpful with recommendations and nice. Ambience wasn't fancy but perfect for lunch

During the week I spent visiting my daughter, a student at Berkeley, we went there twice: delicious, everything fresh, huge portions. After Europe, this is unreal quality for reasonable money. Thank you so much! I hope to visit you again, and more than once!

Fun local Japanese restaurant for a quality and balanced dinner or for some small bites with drinks. Theres a great deal for the 2 item bento course and our food came with complimentary miso soups and cold orange desserts at the end.

The chirashi don comes with a generous portion of sashimi, and the bento box is also quite substantial. Though the flavors are definitely mediocre. It's great value for the price, with attentive service. Perfect for a quick lunch or dinner.

My partner and I enjoyed our late lunch here! The layout of the restaurant felt very open and airy because of the huge windows that were open. We ordered three different rolls- the lobster, spider fantasy, and spicy crunch roll. While we were waiting, they brought us salad and miso soup which was really nice of them. Two of the rolls were HUGE and everything tasted fresh. The lobster roll had lots of chunks of fried lobster on top which was fun. After we finished, they brought us each a cut up orange as dessert! Overall it was a relaxing and delicious lunch experience. I would recommend checking out this restaurant and supporting a new local business!

Friendly service. Enjoyed warm miso soup on a chilly night. Solid sushi rolls and portion. The Real California Roll with real crab was delightful. Surprisingly tasty with good texture. Scallops nigiri tasted fresh. Ocean salad with salmon, tuna and hamachi was was delicious. Spider roll was crunchy with cucumber and fried soft shell crab. Solano roll has everything. Ended the meal with cream puff on the house. Appreciated the friendly staff and refilling hot tea several times. Interior was cozy and spacious. Mainichi is a great neighborhood sushi spot.

Hands down my new fave. Quality and quantity falls both into service, ambiance and food. For you keto people there is one sushi called the volcano that’s rice less and wrapped in soy paper. Vegan friendly too! We ordered: salmon bento, chicken bento, tofu plate, kapa maki. Meal comes with tea or water and miso soup. Very abundant in size and everything extremely fresh and flavorful. Plating is thoughtfully presentable. The chef and server memorable.

Great sushi spot and friendly atmosphere. You won't be disappointed. We stopped here because of the bento box and sushi. What stood out to me about this restaurant was how they provided everyone at the table Miso Soup for no extra charge before we even ordered. There was plenty of room to sit as well as parking in front of restaurant. We ordered the paparazzi, lion king and a bento box and were not disappointed by the quality of the food. Highly recommend the restaurant if you are in the area.

This is my favourite Japanese place in the Berkeley/Albany area. Fresh produce, consistent service. They’re also so generous with their portions - especially the sashimi platter! Must visit.

Just superb! Everything on the menu (and we tried almost everything) is excellent and tasty, inviting you to have more. The chefs are top class and the service is excellent.

Great sushi place! Free miso soup and orange slices. I recommend getting a few rolls and splitting them with a party. Our server, Mika, was great. I like to get the orange blossom roll with lemon slices on top instead of tobiko. It’s delish. I highly recommend.

Free miso soup to start. The udon is good. The mussels are not. They are too creamy and stuffy. The bento box is mix quality. The tofu is excellent. The shiosaba is small and too rough.

I was picking up some food for dinner and parked next to Manchi Sushi. I didn’t even know this place existed up until this point. I impulsively walked in and checked out the menu and ended up ordering 2 sushi rolls. Pricing is on par with most of the other sushi places in the area. Service was relatively fast and I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by how good the rolls were. I am definitely going to go back and try more of their extensive variety of sushi.

We had to wait 15 minutes for service, but the staff was very kind. Flies from outside made finishing lunch tough. Rolls broke up easily, but glad to support the neighborhood restaurants. We'll be back.

Sushi served here tastes/smells odd. For their high prices, I expected more, but this place did not deliver. This is about as good as it gets in the city of Albany. I’ve had better in the middle of nowhere. Would not recommend.
