"I have a couple local sushi joints that I have picked out over the years for mainly their quality among other factors. If you eat sushi, you know quality means everything. I travel a handful of times a year. Whether it’s business or personal and I try to venture out to sushi bars/restaurants on my travels. I’ve been to quite a few over the years. Recently, I traveled to Lathrop, California for business. I found this place on Yelp just down the road from my hotel. I always check reviews before eating at a new sushi bar. This place had a pretty good rating 4 4.5 stars, so I figured I’d check it out. I sat at the sushi bar. The place was clean and had a very pleasant atmosphere. My sushi chef’s name was Shawn, whom I found to be the owner. We had a very nice conversation, which led me to asking questions about the history of his restaurant. They’ve been in business since 2013, and survived through Covid. I noticed there were 5 or 6 awards displayed proudly for being voted best sushi restaurant. When I mentioned it, Shawn spoke about his quality standards and how much it meant to him. Service at the restaurant was top notch! I ordered the Sashimi Moriawase, which is the chef’s choice of select cuts of sashimi. I was blown away by the quality of sashimi along with the preserved wasabi, which I had never had. It was so good I caught myself eating it off the chopsticks by itself. Who eats wasabi by itself? As I was walking out thinking of my local spots, and the places on my travels, and how Amici Sushi might just take the #1 position on that list. I returned a second time during that week and was just as satisfied when I left. If you like cheesecake, you have to try their Japanese cheesecake. I ordered strawberry and it was the most well balanced slice of cheesecake I’ve ever has. This was quite the dinning experience for me. If I ever make it back to this area, Amici Sushi will be the first thought on my mind."
