    It's really rather bland. My daughter had the bento box and her chicken and salmon where under seasoned And overcooked. There rolls are pretty basic for the price. Lacking on flavor. Probably wouldn't go back.

    Thank you lord for A.J Sushi !
    Best sushi in town hands down.
    I absolutely love coming here.
    I am always greeted with a smile.
    Everyone is so kind and the food is even more than I could put into words.
    The cooks sure know the way to my heart because my sushi always comes out delicious.
    The owner of A.J's is the sweetest and kindest individual.
    She knows me to always come back especially when I was pregnant with my now five year old. She remembers him and asks about him every time we see each other.
    The restaurant is clean, I love the decore and the symbolic root behind it.
    It might not be everyone's style of setting but I find it quite pleasant.
    Also love the Mini Koi pond.

    Here the other day with a colleague for a working lunch.  The food here is slightly above average but the venue needs a serious overhaul and a top to bottom cleaning.  The staff is friendly and helpful enough, but this place is a little rough and needs some investment by the owners.  Also, behind the counter and sushi bar is a complete mess.  It is as if the owner has his or her office with all its glory and old junk mail, files, and paperwork strewn about where customers can see just beyond the sushi bar and the kitchen is spilling out into the customer area.  This place just needs to be cleaned up and I could easily go 4-stars based on the food.  Otherwise going 3-stars for now with an option to upgrade in the future.

    UPDATE 06-23-2017
    Same great service during dinner rush.

    UPDATE 06-20-2017
    Food is still great. Dropping one star because parking is TERRIBLE. Try the sake!

    UPDATE 08-27-2016
    This restaurant continues to please.  Have tried multiple rolls now, all are great.

    Original Review:
    Another rare 5 star experience!

    The staff is very friendly and attentive. The dining area is large.  Dining area is casual and clean.

    Most meals and rolls are served with miso soup and edamame as appetizers.

    The gilroy roll is great!  Deep fried with a hint of garlic. Served with ginger and wasabi.

    The sushi chef is very skilled. Sit at the bar and watch him work.

    Offers soft drinks, tea, beer, and sake.

    Will return!
