I’ve been to Japan at least 25 times and know great Japanese food. This is an awesome, family-friendly find even by Californians’ high standards for Asian cuisine. The food is delicious and a tremendous value (especially the kids menu, which includes multiple main dishes, miso soup, sushi and ice cream). The specialty rolls are excellent, with fresh raw fish and daily market selections. The wasabi is made fresh. The green tea is one of the best in the bay. The atmosphere is vaguely Parisian, with large banquettes and comfy chairs, with a beautiful mosaic of Mt. Fuji looming over everyone. The bar is classy too. We are super lucky to have Shiki in our neighborhood.

Stumbled upon this gem while traveling for the Santa Rosa Marathon. The sushi was melt-in-your-mouth delicious with a flare of creativity. Not only was the staff welcoming and friendly, but Yue also spent time providing recommendations tailored to what we most enjoyed. The head chef spent time with us and even brought over a complimentary seasonal dish – Black Sea bass. The entire meal was one we will remember. Next time we’re in Santa Rosa, we’ll be bringing our friends!

Stylish and innovative Japanese food with something for every palate ! We ordered the Agedashi Tofu for appetizer and Rainbow, 49ers, Spider-Man and Lion King sushis for main course. Everything was delicious, served promptly and in generous portions. For dessert we ordered mochi ice cream and chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream. The mochi was the absolute best I’ve had in a while and the chocolate lava was also amazing. Greta service, great food, five out of five stars !

Honestly beyond impressed by the wonderful owner and his amazing staff at Shiki Bistro. They made every effort to make my mother’s birthday a happy and memorable one. Their toro, uni, and wagyu were so fresh and premium in quality. The dinner sets were beautiful, generous in size, and delicious. Definitely recommend and will visit again.

Their sushi is out of this world, so fresh and delicious. They have an extensive menu of many different fancy/specialty rolls that are all so good. The service was super fast, and they were all very kind. Lots of seating inside and outside!

This is a place that will treat you like a “star” unconditionally of your party size. My family is a regular and this is my go-to place for big events as well. Their fish is always fresh, waiters are well-trained and always with a big smile and the Management under Paul is superb!
Keep it up Shikki Bistro!

The atmosphere is nice, which is just about the good thing I can said about this restaurant.
The rolls are very ordinary, that they put teriyaki sauce on three out of four rolls that we ordered. So they tasted just about the same!
They do give you a good size of Takasu dinner combo. The seafood udon soup just mediocre!
The service also just about average or a bit above, nothing much worth of mention!

Came here for my girlfriend’s company dinner. We were seated in a private area. The service was excellent, sake was plentiful and the food never stopped coming. The finale was a whole fish sashimi that was both beautifully presented and absolutely delicious! Given the excellent quality of the food with the large party, I have no doubt their food will be great for a small party. I will definitely be coming back in the future to try their other dishes!

Absolutely loved it! They have great outdoor dining and delicious California rolls. Also, if it’s your birthday they provide you with a small mango ice cream or other dessert for free! They are quite crowded but safer than other restaurants in San Carlos as they are farther away from the main strip.

This is my go-to spot for Sushi. I’ve been here for many years and have settled on this place being the best. Lots of Chefs lined up behind the glass provide fast service. With the volume of fish going through here you know it’s always fresh. Added bonus: They have a full service bar! I like stopping in on the way home for an elegant cocktail with friends and adding some great sushi appetizers. Service is with a smile and always fresh!
