Sushi Star - Citrus Heights, California

Thinking of dinner, we remembered seeing a sushi place behind a corner drugstore. It was not an impressive location but that turned out to be irrelevant. Inside was a lovely, comfortable full-service restaurant and a cheery welcome from the person on duty. The menu was large, with lots of variety, several interesting beers and reasonable prices. We ordered a Coedo Shikkoku, a Unagi, a Dragon and an OMG roll.

It did take some time for our order to be ready but we had a bowl of tasty edamame to keep us company. Upon seeing what was placed on the table in front of us it became clear the wait was justified. Everything was beautiful and perfectly delicious. The beer was exactly-right cold, the rolls were creatively and lovingly prepared, fresh-as-could-be and full of flavor. The special rolls were each a unique treat. Yes, everything was perfect. There was much more to try on the menu so we will be back to Sushi Star soon with our sushi-munching friends.

Absolutely delicious! We drive 30 minutes to get here because it’s THAT good. The rolls never disappoint — fresh and flavorful. And the omakase nigiri is another favorite of ours. Highly recommend giving this place a chance! 🤩🤩

Stellar Sushi Experience at Sushi Star

Sushi Star truly exceeded our expectations! The freshness of the fish was simply divine, elevating every bite to a culinary delight. The generous portions left us feeling satisfied without breaking the bank.

The staff was incredibly friendly and attentive, ensuring our dining experience was smooth and enjoyable. They were even accommodating to our dietary needs, happily customizing a roll for my partner who doesn't care for avocado for whatever illogical reasons

Delicious and well crafted sushi! Everything was fresh, beautiful, and showcased the chef's abilities. Sushi Star is a cozy, little gem of a restaurant!

I pretty much compare all sushi places in the area to this one. The food takes a while to get to your table but is 100% worth the wait. I loved how the waiter offered to fill our water even after we had already paid the bill. Genuine honest folks here with fantastic sushi

Don't be fooled by the mall location, this is not your average sushi restaurant. The fish is some of the freshest and most flavorful we've ever had, the selection impressive, and the chef's presentation is a work of art. The service is attentive and friendly to perfection, we had our server (possibly the owner?) bring a free appetizer and sake because they were busy and we had to wait a couple of minutes for one of the dishes. We live more than an hour away, but have eaten there three times already, and will continue to do so anytime we're in Sacramento. Congratulations to the owners and staff, dining with you is a treat and a pleasure!

We tried Sushi Star for the first time out of convenience, but wow, were we impressed! The tempura was light and crispy, the rolls were as tasty as they were lovely. The Fiesta roll was simple, fresh, and beautiful Definitely take a chance on the Walnut Prawn roll, we ended up needing a second! Chill vibe, friendly and attentive employees.
