Sushi Teri Santa Barbara Japanese Restaurant

If you are looking for delicious sushi in the Santa Barbara area, this is the place to go! The Sashimi plate is a must-try, and all of their rolls are consistently excellent. The spicy Adames are particularly delicious. The service is friendly and efficient, always making sure that we have a great experience.

I would give this restaurant 0 stars if I could. When I tried to place a to-go order and mentioned that I had a gift card, the employee on the phone told me they couldn't accept it but couldn't explain why before abruptly hanging up. This refusal was shocking to me, as I can't believe a company wouldn't accept their own gift card at their own location. The quality of the food was also terrible, with sushi from Whole Foods being better in comparison. I would not recommend Sushi Teri at all.

It’s a Monday of a three day holiday. Every other place I went was out of Uni. These guys weren’t. And what that means to me, a chef is either they have secret sources that being them fresh seafood over the weekend OR they take meticulous care of their seafood. The fatty salmon was spectacular. The uni nutty and briny and even the tuna was crisp and flavorful. But probably more notable is that the rice is very good. The seaweed properly toasted and the ginger is the fresher type with no dye. And they are soooo nice. I highly recommend!

I came here unexpectedly and found a great little spot to enjoy some sushi. It doesn't look like much but the portions are generous and the food taste delicious. I left here with a full belly and a smile. I will keep this place in mind next time I'm in the area.

I really enjoyed the sushi, karaage, tempura, and Japanese soda at this restaurant. I would definitely recommend it! The staff is also very friendly to talk to.
