We felt very spoiled ordering the Omakase (chef’s choice) sashimi. We tried almost every special/seasonal fish they had- and some unique preparations and presentations. Jin took very good care of us. This place was impressive and amazing quality. The fish is flown in overnight from Japan. Very fresh and top quality! Other reviews say it’s the best sushi in the area- I would agree!! Order the omakase.

Don’t follow the picture on the review. Order small plates and consider next orders.

Wonderful service. We even got sample drink for free because we were excited to try plum wine and were given the soaked plums as a fun bonus. The food is delicious and also affordable.

Go-to favorite sushi in the Bay area. Fresh from Japan every day, no other compares. The fresh salmon in particular is the best I have had outside of Japan.

After more than a year of lock-down, we celebrated social liberation with a fabulous sushi dinner sitting at the sushi bar watching the sushi master preparing “Omakase” (chief’s choice) assortment of the most delicious and beautifully presented succulent servings of fresh fish east of Japan, all while savoring glasses of fragrant chilled sake from a 1800 ml bottle of Konteki Tears of Dawn Daiginjo – absolutely heaven on earth! Not cheap, but worth every penny spent! In short, the best sushi in the Bay Area!

I absolutely love this restaurant. Chef Jin is amazing – his fish is always fresh and top quality. I have been coming here for years and the experience just keeps getting better and better. Thank you Kamado

Was very unimpressed, especially after reading all the amazing reviews. Tried many things here, chriashi, katsu don, multiple rolls, etc, but all were just acceptable, but for above average prices. The fish was somewhat fresh, some pieces were definitely not as fresh as others. The katsu don was extremely disappointing with very dry meat. Wouldn’t really recommend, you can find better sushi / Japanese food elsewhere. Food and prices were only worth two stars, however service and hot towels added an extra star.

My favorite sushi restaurant in Berkeley so far! They have the largest, freshest, and most interesting selection of sashimi in the area, ranging from tuna toro to ankimi (monkfish liver) to mackerel. They also have a solid selection of rolls, including the typical spider roll and the more uncommon oshizushi (box pressed sushi). I wouldn’t come here if you don’t want to spend the money, or if you want sashimi and rolls in large volumes. I would come here for fresh and tasty bites, and a new fish to try each time.

The food was ok, just wasn’t hitting the mark on flavor. 2 dishes were dry and a little bit to much char from the grill. Service was excellent, so nothing wrong with thar. Just missed the mark on the food being good with that price.

If you’re looking for omakase quality sushi without the high price tag, I recommend Kamado! My partner and I ordered 2 chef’s choice (ordered to our table instead of the sushi bar because we wanted a casual dining experience) along with an additional dish (not pictured) for under $200 after taxes. Pretty reasonable for the selection of premium fish you are receiving imo! I’ve been here a few times and their food and service has been consistent. A must try if you’re in the area.
