Can anyone recommend a good Japanese restaurant in the east Bay (we live n Walnut Creek) for GOOD sashimi? We know of a few "fair" places but are looking for a REALLY GREAT one!!

    I recommend Jo's Sushi Bar. It's off Morello basically on the borders of Walnut Creek/Pleasant Hill/Martinez. The food there is great and the service is always good.

      Don't usually do sashimi there, but given the high quality of their nigiri, I would say Uzen. The fish specials (often from Japan) are usually excellent.

        Worth the schlep. You can take BART, it's not far from the Rockridge station.
