Absolutely delicious! We drive 30 minutes to get here because it’s THAT good. The rolls never disappoint β€” fresh and flavorful. And the omakase nigiri is another favorite of ours. Highly recommend giving this place a chance! 🀩🀩

Stellar Sushi Experience at Sushi Star

Sushi Star truly exceeded our expectations! The freshness of the fish was simply divine, elevating every bite to a culinary delight. The generous portions left us feeling satisfied without breaking the bank.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. They were even accommodating to our dietary needs, happily customizing a roll for my partner who doesn't care for avocado for whatever illogical reasons

A delicious restaurant that should have more customers. Have no complaints. The dishes are amazing, not too heavy for our stomachs and not to light just perfect. Unique recipes and creative designs on the plates with the sauce. Definitely will recommend the best sushi place ever one, too. I'm definitely coming back to Sushi Star.

❗We always ordered sushi here, but now we ordered and are very upset, first of all, the price increase, three times for such a price, very small portions (photo), the portions have become much smaller than they were, now we ordered for a large company for a birthday, and we did not have enough :(
They didn't put soy sauce in the order, the fish came with bones, this place is really disgusting!
we will not order here anymore

Hands down the best sushi in citrus heights, and I have been to yiu marlu. Mom and pop (japanese) place.

Sushi is amazingly fresh, as evidenced by the subtlety of their lemon sushi, which delights, not overpowers. The fish eggs present in many of their dishes pops with satisfying crunch, not mushy like most places (stale or wet).

Service is also a stand out here. We have been going here since first week they opened. Each "premium" takeout dish was lovingly decorated with a lotus leaf (edible) and packaged immaculately. For anyone who has been to japan, this is their thing. They don't do the lead anymore, but it was the essence of sushi: food as art.

And I was a bit tickled with their odd ball selection of saki, odd fruit drinks, etc all in single serve size. Try the crackling rice drink! Seeing my curiosity, the owner/chef offered me one, free of charge. Buddy, you just made a customer for life. I gave him $5 for it, just the same because of the gesture. And tipped them $30 on a $100 takeout order. Again, all very Japanese, humble, kind.

We order from there once per month. The food is always top notch, if not THE best. Service is not SUPER fast, but quick, and careful EVERY time. Prices are reasonable to good. Nothing expensive considering the quality and care.

Am I raving? Yeah, because they deserve it.

They have a tiny little place for the moment, not the best, in the back, but ample parking, and we have eaten in. Service was decent. The mom gets a bit overwhelmed being by herself, checking out, and to go orders. They are both wonderful people making great stuff, well worth what little time it costs.

I have had sushi in Japan and in Las Vegas, where it is fiercely competitive. These folks knock it out of the park.

Looks unassuming from the outside, but I had legitimately the best sushi in my experience, bar none. The omakase is very reasonably priced. I had asked if the omakase had uni, and the chef made sure to make that happen.

Each piece of the omakase was expertly crafted. My wife with went a normal roll, and she loved that as well. Not sure how often I'll be in the area, but every time I visit I'll be sure to come back.

Excellent people and better food. Can't beat the value of that!

By far the best sushi restaurant I have ever been to. The flavor profile from their roll to roll is amazing. Other restaurants like blue nami and mikunis over sauce their rolls and they all taste the same. Every dish I have gotten here is amazing. Service is top quality and I love the vibe. Stop here If you’re in the area or plan to come to Sacramento. My wife and I have been going for years and will continue our patronage

Don't be fooled by the mall location, this is not your average sushi restaurant. The fish is some of the freshest and most flavorful we've ever had, the selection impressive, and the chef's presentation is a work of art. The service is attentive and friendly to perfection, we had our server (possibly the owner?) bring a free appetizer and sake because they were busy and we had to wait a couple of minutes for one of the dishes. We live more than an hour away, but have eaten there three times already, and will continue to do so anytime we're in Sacramento. Congratulations to the owners and staff, dining with you is a treat and a pleasure!

We had Mother's Day late dinner here with our daughter's family, last-minute choice after finding other places' waiting lines too long. We called ahead and they had a table for 6 waiting for us. We ordered five rolls, one kid's bento box, and the 10-piece sashimi platter. Service was very friendly and efficient. My wife and I have eaten there and ordered take-out before, but this was my first time with a group, so enjoyed trying more dishes. All of the rolls were delicious. I hadn't eaten sashimi in a long time, it came in a fishbowl (!) over a tray of dry ice, garnished with greenery and an orchid flower - sorry I didn't get a picture. There were two generous-sized cuts of each of the 5 kinds of fish, not sure of the varieties beyond tuna and salmon but all very firm and fresh-tasting. The waitress brought out a complementary appetizer, jalpeno bombs stuffed with crab salad, the peppers were very mellow. The grandsons had big appetites, so we ordered two more rolls, then enjoyed the complementary Mother's Day mochi ice cream treats. Several families at other tables were all having a good time too. It was a much better experience than we'd have had at our original restaurant choice.

As a long time and loyal customer, it saddens me to change my five star review after only one year. Over time and under newer ownership, the prices have finally been raised to a point that I'm seeking a new restaurant to go to.
Why the prices bother me now is the overall decline in service and the same (if not slightly worse) quality of ingredients. Nothing has been greatly improved that I see needs the repeated and exponential increases.

This was the most disappointing sushi restaurant and dining experience I've had in Sacramento. For context, there were 4 of us, my wife and two children. My wife is a career bartender/server/trainer at a steakhouse, so we're super chill and easy with servers and restaurants. We get it, bad nights happen. But they can be corrected by a little bit of hospitality and the eventual arrival of good food. There will be none of that here.

For the tl;dr - Drive a mile up the street to Bonsai Sushi, you'll get better service, MUCH larger portions, and better food.

The whole experience started with red flags. The restaurant was full so we sat at the sushi bar. The sushi chef didn't acknowledge us, there was none of the usual hospitality one would expect for sitting at the bar. The servers were very invested in moving my family from the bar to the table, which is fine. Mind you, we eat out at sushi a lot, sitting at the bar is no big deal... but fine, all good.

We ordered our appetizers, food, and drinks. Some appetizers arrived, some didn't. Pretty sure one of them got shipped to another table in the chaos. The other table's order got to us like 20-30 minutes later.

After the first touch, the servers wouldn't make eye contact with me. All I wanted was to order a second beer, and it wasn't like I was slamming them down. Eventually I was able to eye one into coming over and I ordered another beer, at this point I also reminded them of the missing apps. That was legit like 45+ minutes later.

The restaurant was churning out to go orders while we sat waiting, along with other the customers. (Recommendation: Quote longer to-go times and take care of the house first.)

Slightly over an hour after ordering (for SUSHI!) our food arrived. The hand roll wasn't a cone, looked nothing like the picture, it was a small roll in crispy seaweed like you would buy at the store, not soft, and it was a roll! A tiny roll! Like the size of your finger and thumb together. It was SMALL! Which was a theme for the night.

As our sushi rolls started arriving they too were small, super tiny. Yet the prices were full on Mikuni prices. And by small I mean between the size of a quarter and a half dollar. So small that one of my 11-13 year old girls could have polished one alone and still been hungry. My wife opted to not eat so the kids could get enough food. (and I didn't clue in until after cuz I too was ravenous...don't judge me!) None of the rolls looked like the pictures.

The food was alright but the wait, the portion size, the price, the service, and the experience... It was terrible~ We will never go back.

Look, 1.5 miles (5 min) up Sunrise is a place called Bonsai Sushi. It's amazing. The portions are the same price but like 3x the size. The food is delicious. The servers are friendly and take care of you. Go there. Skip this place.

We ordered chicken noodle, crunch roll, and chicken hibachi. Their chicken noodle felt very saggy and watery. Chicken is very bland and rough. Their crunch roll was good but not like anything I have tasted before. I have asked no wasabi and ginger with my sushi, but I still received it. I also had to wait 35 min to get my food when it was said 20-25 min. I come from I Love Teriyaki for many years, and comparing their food with this is such a disappointment. I really wanted to believe their 4.9 hype train rating they have, but was really disappointed when I left.

They’re under new management now and sometimes that can make or break a place and so far it’s still making it! I hope it doesn’t break it! The last time we went, we waited a really long time for service and food which was unusual BUT we then found out they were super short staffed and it was a busy weekend night, so we were patient and we were taken such good care of! The food and service were still top notch even being short staffed and really busy, it was as pleasant and delicious as always! Food is always fresh and filling and we always leave fully and happy!

I really wanted to like it here but unfortunately it was not a great experience. I ordered a roll and told it would be gluten free and it was not so unfortunately I don't think the waitress knew what was gluten free. It also had shells in the crab that I had received so I could not safely eat it. There was also Wasabi or some very strong/bad flavor in everything I ordered eventhough it was not listed as an ingredient and it was in simple rolls that should not have it. It was expensive for sushi that was not enjoyable and I did not eat most of it. My spouse did not like or eat his rolls either unfortunately.
Hopefully my experience was rare and others enjoy this much more than I did.

Went here for my bday. Food was great and staff are all super nice. They also have a ton of food options! Many of us have that one family member that doesn't want sushi... Which is totally fine here. They have sushi, ramen, bento boxes, and more. They also have a two roll option for sushi if you want to save a little (I love sushi, my wallet doesn't). This was perfect for me. I'm definitely trying some of their combination plate and ramen options later, they looked great on the menu. Definitely worth a try, and I'm definitely coming back.

Great food. The only thing that bothered me was that the owner (wife) did not wipe down the tables. You can't just do it with your hand. You need a wet rag and clean it. I will be back but with table wipes. I grew up in restaurants.
The husband makes great sushi rolls. So worth it! Oshinko Maki is one of my favorites.

All of the food here is "A" quality. And, you must try their Ninja Roll. The server was very nice. However, If you are in a hurry call ahead and make your order ahead of time.

My new favorite sushi restaurant in the area. Definitely family owned but they have excellent customer service. Clean environment and very friendly. Sushi itself tasted delicious. Love their steak and would highly recommend. One thing was their salmon was kinda thin, I would rather get the steak more. Other than that, no complaints! Would definitely come back here again

Got 4 items. Belly belly roll, mango crunch roll, agadashi tofu and hamachi carpachio. Agadashi and hamachi were great but the belly belly roll was incredibly fishy and the mango crunch was wrapped badly. Also their descriptions online of what is in the roll is wrong

I love this place! I’m a big fan of the baked scallop, but my husband who doesn’t particularly enjoy enjoy sushi options really likes the hibachi selection. When we went our server was excellent at attending our needs, after a long day out on the lake I was drinking glass after glass of water and right when I hit the bottoms she was back with the pitcher which I was super grateful for.
I definitely recommend this place!

We went to our normal spot but they closed dining service at 7pm so we decided to try Sushi Star and we are glad we did! Very inexpensive and delicious. It's a family owned business. The wife served us and the husband was the chef. Their young son was there and well behaved. My daughter is a picky eater. She gave them an A+ and said this is now her favorite sushi place.

We LOVE this place! We have went there 4 times recently just to try all their rolls. Fresh fish, excellent service, unique, incentive, pure talent. We were there on Valentine's day today and it was the busiest we've ever seen it, with small amount of staff. The hustle was real! The hostess/server/owner? Was doing everything with a smile on her face. They smartly had something coming out for each table at one time, alternating so we were all taken care of. Come try this amazing sushi!!

One of the best sushi restaurants in the Sacramento/Roseville area! Family run and consistent quality of food every time. I order to-go at least 2 times a week.

Some of the best customer service I ever experienced, with an extremely clean environment.

Pictured is my favorite roll (walnut prawn roll) and snow crab roll….also the chicken hibachi plate, which is amazing every time.

I don’t leave reviews often but when a place is this good I have to….Must try!

Came in about 1 on a Thursday, no customers, so quick service. Got the yuzu Ramune I ordered and a bowl of miso (that was really good) immediately. The music they had on was okay, the wall art was cute, there was some guy talking to Larry king about prostate supplements which was a little odd but whatever.
Got 3 sushi rolls,
Unagi roll smelled fishy but tasted alright
Vegetable tempura roll was good, but dry
Sunrise roll was the best of all of them, but not striking
Overall it was alright, might come back again to try their ramen or donburi instead

Just finished a great meal here, well deserving of their current 4.9 stars. The gyoza was light and crispy but not too fried, the sushi was fresh and tender (in particular the avocado & tuna/salmon hand rolls), the hibachi salmon was tasty & accompanied by great mushrooms/vegetables, and the hamachi kama was melt-in-your-mouth tender.

5/5 would visit again

Love this place! Amazing customer service. Friendly and attentive. They made us feel so special. Food is exceptional. There are so many items to choose from. Price was fair. Everything look so good. We ordered alot for just two people. We had the pink lady, fire star rolls, sashimi platter, dragon rolls, OMG rolls, salmon avocado seaweed wraps, and mochi ice cream for desserts. As you can see, they were so pretty, very fresh, and delicious. We'll definitely be returning. Thank you so much for such a wonderful experience. We really enjoyed our meal. πŸ’“ πŸ’— πŸ’›

Awesome family ran sushi restaurant!
We love ordering off their specials menu, the ankimo, lobster roll, and fresh oysters (pictured) are always great. Other specials currently include Santa Barbara uni, yakisoba, and steak, lobster, and scallop hibachi for around $22.

I recommend the hamachi kama (pictured) appetizer, around $15 for 2 pieces which is a great deal. The skin is crispy, and the fish is meaty and moist. We always order it, sometimes Togo and it reheats great in an air fryer.

Our favorite rolls are the Sushi Star, Fire Star, Salmon Blossom, and if you like crab, their Snow crab roll is SO GOOD. The snow crab roll (pictured, missing a piece because it's just so good...) isn't too fancy but I think they use real crab, and the taste is just so so clean, I love the texture, and it's 10x better than any Krab roll.

Hamachi sashimi and otoro sashimi (pictured) are always on point. The sushi chef does a great job with presentation and cuts.

You can call ahead to reserve omakase.

The service is always great, but not the fastest depending on how busy it is. Everything has always been worth the wait and I recommend it regardless! Again, family ran and you can tell they put a lot of effort into the food and art of sushi! So glad to have a staple sushi restaurant in citrus heights!

Edited to add review of omakase experience!!! October 2022

Splurged on their omakase for our anniversary. $150/pp for about 12 courses, call a few days ahead to reserve. The chef did call after I made my reservation to confirm any allergies and preferences, of which we had none. Everything was AMAZING and really showcased the chefs skills and artistry. Highly recommended for something new and unique, and come hungry! Portions were very generous.

Courses included miso soup, ankimo with scallops, oyster shooters with uni and ikura, chawanmushi with uni, amaebi, and ikura, assorted sashimi in a beautiful ice sculpture, more sashimi with the fish remains fried for display (this was so beautiful y'all), geoduck sashimi, Kobe beef tataki (sooooo savory and delicious), broiled fish, assorted nigiri, deluxe hand rolls with toro, uni, crab, and ikura, and mochi served in an ice bowl topped with spun sugar threads.

I'm still drooling as I look over these photos. This was not a cheap meal, but I'm so thrilled to have an authentic and delicious omakase option without having to trek downtown or to the city!

Great little place that I will revisit again. Super friendly and quick staff. If I had to come up with a complaint it would probably be that my roll was sliced very thin and I prefer thicker pieces when my roll is cut. The muscles are absolutely delicious I think they're a little pricey for only four small muscles but the flavor was so good I would probably pay for them again lol.

The staff is very friendly, the food is great always fresh. I do wish they had a few more menu selections, more fish choices, however everything has always been very good and it's reasonably priced

Ok,months later, and I have to add to my review. They recently updated their menu, and there are so many new delicious options. And beautiful photos so you can see what you're getting. I ordered something new to me, the CeCe roll, and it was so fresh and mouth watering delicious! This has fast become my favorite go-to Sushi place. Well done

Affordable sushi that was actually good! We went here for lunch (around 11:45am) and the place was just open for the day so we were seated right away. The food came out pretty fast.

- california roll: lots of filling and good. My kid loved it and finished it all
- spider roll: soft shell crab was crispy and generous pieces of the crab. The sauce was good

They made a cute orange character for my kid at the end of the meal. We'll be back when we're in the area
