Serika Sushi Restaurant

The food was absolutely delicious. The sushi was incredibly fresh and beautifully laid out on the plate. The setting was a lot of fun and the servers were efficient, friendly, and informative.. Everywhere you looked throughout the restaurant families and couples and friends were thoroughly enjoying their meals.

Good food especially the tempura, which is lightly fried and delicious. I like the the light coating that leaves me satisfied without feelling over stuffed. I usually go there with friends for lunch. the bento box choices are great. The waitress is very friendly and the prices are reasonable.

NEW CHEF! Formerly sixteen years with Ozumo and it shows. A new husband and wife team took over bringing the standards and stories from one of the top places in the Bay Area to Orinda. The menu has been revamped, but what is remarkable is, outside the fish quality he is accustomed to having, the stuff that is not on the menu but made to order on the Chef's recommendation. Hence, letting him choose will provide the best experience and be yet one more level up. Update: The place is doing well, he now added two staff. Glad to see how the quality continues to be outstanding, and how new regulars flock the place.

The new owners of Serika are doing a good business since it packed! Lion King Roll and Rock and Roll were pretty good! I think their presentation needs a little help to highlight the food being served. For instance, the Rock & Roll that I had was served on it's side hiding the Tobiko... still tasty. The tiny Gyoza are deep fried, oh no! The taste of the filling is masked by the oil in which it was fried (and everything else cooked in that oil). The Orinda Roll tasted good.

Our family and friends go to place anytime and for all kind of celebrations. We are always welcomed with warm greetings to delicious cuisine and phenomenal service every time. Keep up the amazing work.
