Best. Sushi. Ever.

You know that spot that forever affects how you approach all other restaurants of the same cuisine? Sono Sushi is the sushi for which I compare all other sushi. By a stroke of crazy, mad luck, John happened to be raised using the same sushi bar as his sushi measuring stick. So it is quite fortunate that our appreciation for fine sushi comes from the same roots.

On Castro St. in Mountain View, Sono might be operated by a Chinese family, cheaper than city sushi, or even gimmicky with floating boats. Don't be fooled. You'll never have better tempura rolls! And those are certainly my favorite rolls—I highly recommend ordering them directly from the sushi chef so the shrimp are still warm when you take a bite. Please note the lack of actual food in this photo. It disappears that quickly.
