Buddha's Favorite

One of the better sushi restaurants I’ve had on the West Coast. Prices were a bit expensive, but the food tasted fresh. The close proximity to the water creates a pleasant overall eating experience.

A place recommended to us, and the execution was wonderful. The wasabi was creamy, ginger was fresh and crisp, the rolls are mostly enclosed in rice paper instead of seaweed (I don't mind seaweed, it's an acquired taste I have come to expect and enjoy, but this was different and better), and every roll had an umani quality where it just melted in your mouth. We all (3) loved this place, ordered 6 rolls and crushed 6 rolls - 48 pieces, ginger salad, and desserts, plus a special unlisted roll at the end of the night to-go. Atmosphere and service were excellent.

My friends and I sort of stumbled upon this gem of a sushi restaurant when we found out Nobu was closed during the mid day hours. One of the workers there suggested it as a potential alternative to out sushi craving. I'm glad we decided to give it a try.

The venue is fairly small so it is best to make reservations ahead of time. Fortunately reservations are a breeze thru Yelp online and I literally booked them as I was leaving Nobu.

The outdoor patio seating was a little crammed but it was situated by a dock with a nice view. We saw fish jumping out of the water and it was fun looking at all the boats.

The food was delicious and service was great. The staff was friendly and efficient. Prices were also not overpriced as they can be in the area and each dish was a good portion size. Overall a decent value for the area. Also note, the bathrooms are a little trek from the venue (by the parking lot) and require a code to get in.

Overall I had a great experience at Buddha's Favorite. If you are craving good sushi that won't break the bank check out this place.
