Definitely some of the best sushi I’ve had. It was a bit of a long wait, but it was definitely worth it. I mostly tried their sushi and I was not disappointed. Apart from the food the service was fantastic and our waitress was pretty awesome. Great food, great service, honestly what more can you ask for? I’d definitely come back to try out the rest of their menu.

What makes Shunka Sushi special is their wide seasonal selection of fish from Japan. If you are interesting in trying some new fish that go beyond your neighborhood sushi join, look no further than Shunka. Here you can order an omakase to get the chefs choice of seasonal fish. They are now offering different sizes to fit your appetite. If that doesn’t work for you, you can always order what you want, or even get some rolls. If there is truly something you have your heart set on, considering calling ahead to see if the restaurant has it or can set it aside for you. Some of my favorite items like amaebi may get sold out, but oh is it ever worth it.

Good sushi place but I would say it’s one level below Nana San or San shi go in terms of the sushi and it’s a bit more expensive as well. The king salmon, Spanish mackerel and toro stood out among the nigiri I tried, the rest are just okay/good enough… I feel that the madai, which was highly recommended by our waitress on the “from Japan” menu was nothing special which is why it was masked with a chili flake sauce/topping. Good place but not great.

Came here for omakase. Food and service was good. I think vince(?) was our servers name. All the workers are soooo cute and expressed alot of gratitude while we were there. They also surprised me by coming out& singing happy birthday to us. I definitely would come back !

I had the 8-piece + 1 handroll omakase here with two of my other friends! Each piece was fresh, soft, and tasty to eat. The handroll was also well made and fresh. But the experience we had was what made me give this a 5 star review. The staff were very welcoming and pleasant, especially our sushi chef, Chef Juro. He made us feel welcome and comfortable with his friendly attitude and side jokes.

I recently ordered a takout order for Shunka; I have been here in the past but this was my first time ordering takeout since the pandemic. Phone ordering was easy and they were very flexible about customization of rolls etc. I ordered the 369 Roll, California Cut Roll with added masago, Crunchy Roll, Blue Crab Cut Roll, Shima Aji Sushi, Yellowtail Belly, Fresh Water Eel Sushi, Uni Sushi and Chirashi Lunch Special Bowl.

It had been over a year since the last time I dined here. Came back for the Omakase.

Serving primarily sushi/nigiri and rolls, this is more of a traditional Japanese sushi restaurant with just a hint of fusion. We ordered omakase and everything we had was very good quality fish, I particularly enjoyed giant clams, uni, unkimo. Service was excellent and prices were very reasonable, very high CP!
