We ate at the sushi bar and it was great! Definitely recommend!
You have to try the gyosas or korokes while you wait for your main dish. And happy hour has great prices. $5 for a tempura yam roll.
Cook completely forgot our order as we sat and waited, no one bothered to check on it. First and last time
Consistently great sushi, busy place because its one of the best restaurants. During prime hours it may take over an hour for a takeout order so plan ahead. The Niku maki roll is a hidden gem that I havent experienced anywhere else, give it a try!
Just as good, if not better, than they were 20 years ago. Their albacore is some of the best in California.
The food was really good. I was different sushi than Ive had anywhere else. Maybe northern California on the coast has its own sushi vibe or maybe just this restaurant, but it was good.
Best Asian food I’ve ever had. The staff is great and friendly and down to earth. The staff is clearly family with one another. The boss is great and kind. One time the boss paid for me and my friend’s meal. No charge at all.Everything about this place is great.Definitely a place to stop by in Northern California.
Great and friendly service, best sashimi ever!
The food was great but my only problem is when you have a whole table full of customers you need to serve them all at the same time. 3 out of 5 of our party got our food and it took them 20 mins for the remaining people in our party to receive their food. No one wants to eat in front of other people.
Been years sense my last visit but I have fond memories of really good Ramen bowls and sake.
Absolutely delicious food, and the service was outstanding. The specialty sushi was amazing. We could not have asked for a better experience.
I always enjoy Tomo. May not be my favorite, but has been consistently good for years. Thats a hard bar for Humboldt. Awesome owner too!
Nice place; slow. Located inside hotel. Reservation recommended for dinner.
Great food, better service (all if the wait staff are nice and engaging people) and just a pleasant place to eat. Weird thing though, Miso Soup is Miso Soup right? Negative. They have the best Miso Soup ever. Rich and flavorful. This is a great restaurant
Their veggi tempura was the best dish ever..... loved it.....😍😍😍
Ive been eating here for 17 yrs. Its always good. I travel and rarely find such delightful sushi and Japanese cuisine. Never do I tire of it. So come enjoy excellent food, happy atmosphere and great service. Gluten free recognized and handled well.
Cant beat the atmosphere or portion sizes. Its the local restaurant on the Plaza for the historic Hotel Arcata, and the decor of the restaurant brings to mind early 20th century Asian-American culture. Vegan and vegetarian options are available, and if you eat fish, the salmon entree is more than enough unless youre an unusually big eater. A full bar in the old style, including sake.
Tomo is good however the service is really lacking at the moment. They have one waiter serving 7 tables that all get seated at the same time.The food from the kitchen came out before the sushi, the sushi took over a half hour.Not sure why but the owner wouldnt seat us where we requested and did not give a reason. He sat another party there shortly after us.Its too bad the owner ruins an otherwise good restaurant.
Best sushi I have ever had. We have altered our travel plans just to make sure we get sushi on our coasts trips here.
Absolutely amazing sushi and the chicken teriyaki was to die for!!
This is my favorite happy hour spot in Arcata. The Mini Rainbow Poke Bowl and the Hot Hamacita make the perfect afternoon meal.
One of my top special favorite restaurants - absolutely lovely people working hard and making great food
We had, hands down, the best service weve ever had in Humboldt! The cuts of fish in the rolls were generous and everything was perfectly executed! The server was knowledgable and very attentive. Excellent!
Great food service could feel a bit faster but other then that the aesthetic is pleasing and almost a homey feeling and the waiters are very nice
I had forgotten how good they are! A friend and I shared the $49.00 dinner for 2. We had so much that we had a full dinner the next day! Very tasty! The service was excellent. Definitely a place to start going on a regular basis!
I’m a regular customer and have spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars on this fine establishment however the line is always busy and after persistence and patience I finally was able to get through to the staff who refused to take my order at 736pm. I was told the kitchen closed at 730pm ! This is not the first time they have rudely hung up the phone after advertising that they are open until 9pm for pick up. It’s obviously the only lace in town so they do not care. Thur customer services poor and the WEB site is incorrect. They never have Chi-so and the hot sake isn’t even hot! 😢
Tomo is the original sushi restaurant in the Arcata plaza. Before all the other sushi spots arrived Tomo was the place to go. Management has allways been accommodating to our huge tables for birthdays or harvest parties and the food has always been top notch. Try the buddah belly hand roll for a treat or the teriyaki salmon dinner. Tomo never dissapoints!
This is a lively place, with an extensive selection to choose from of some of the best sushi we have ever eaten. They serve cocktails as well, so it is not your traditional Japanese restaurant, but with a college town twist. The atmosphere is louder but not out of hand. It is expensive but you get what you pay for.
Tomo used to be a fave for good food and a celebratory meal. It has gone down hill recently. Tempura batter has gotten too thick and greasy, and many offerings are too dry and overcooked. Will try a third time soon and if it hasnt improved Ill speak to the manager. The service is still great.
The service was perfect and the sushi was SO GOOD! Im only docking a star for ambiance. Tomo has always been kinda shabby in that department.
Tomo is one of the longest standing sushi spots in the area, located inside one of the oldest hotels. Great atmosphere and service. I love the food. The happy hour gives a great spread and drinks for a great price.
Always great! We went there for my birthday last month. 300 bucks worth of sushi!
We met with friends at this spot for a meeting. my friend recommended this spot. Well, we were not disappointed. The staff were extremely nice and we had a great feeling. The meal was fresh and delicious. We had a great time and we will definitely return to this restaurant. We recommend this place to all.
Food was amazing and a great family setting. Our server Echo was on point! She made some suggestions that my lady and I thoroughly enjoyed. We will definitely be back with the type of service and food Tomo had to offer. Thanks again Echo!!
Always love some Tomo! Excellent sushi with lots of North Coast Love. The butsuguri is not to be missed. Try the Yam tempura roll for something different. Larrupin station for a uniquely Humboldt flavor. The house rolls tailor to every palate. Epic... Thank you Joe, Mimi and company for holding down this staple of Northern California. A Humboldt visit isnt complete without a trip to Tomo! As I was welcomed back this last month (with an accompanied unannounced table of 12) I was told Welcome Home. They pulled together tables and rocked it as good as it always has been and more! This place certainly is just that... Home.
Lovely place. Great location. Always a little bit busy, which I like because I often times travel alone and when I stop through Arcata theres something kinda magical about sitting at a crowded sushi restaurant by yourself. Been here 3 times on 3 separate trips and will definitely be here a 4th if I get the chance again
Really nice setting. Friendly staff too. A little pricey considering there arent actually any Japanese sushi chefs and also the non-traditional upscale setting, but a really great place to take a date.
Joe the owner is a class act. He and his staff always aim to please and never dissapoint.The sushi and service has been stellar for years. The dinner for 2 we just had was incredible!
Very beautiful location. The food is great quality and extremely original. I was very surprised by the combinations of ingredients that made a simple roll a explosion of interesting flavors. Downside, the waiting time...but if you are not in a rush, is way worth it! ☆
This place is absolutely amazing. They have real traditional rolls that are outstanding. I highly recommend this place over sushi spot who is non-traditional. The sushi chefs are absolutely wonderful with am amazing attitude and willing to answer any question you have with complete honesty. I asked for a recomendation from the kitchen and there advice was the best things I have seeked all year. An absolute must if in the area.
It was a lot of years ago when I last ate here (around 1996), but the food was good even if the sushi man behind the bar was dull and uncommunicative. Frankly, I thought it was just wrong to have a white man who looked like a lumberjack making sushi, but he was quite good at it and the fish was delicious, not to mention very affordable. If the same guy is still working there, he would be an old man like me, but still not Japanese.
Great food with decent portion sizes. The staff has been friendly, the restaurant and bathrooms are kept clean. You need a code for the bathroom as it belongs to the hotel. The restaurant is located within the hotel/underneath, in the lobby area. It is right in the Arcata Plaza. The atmosphere is great , a good spot for date night. The menu can be a little pricey depending on what you get but for the amount of food & quality it is worth it. I would recommend it and go again.
The food was delicious and the service was great. Had no problems finding vegetarian options on the menu and our server was conscientious enough to let me know that the sauce that came with the tempura basket had fish sauce in it and she brought me a vegetarian version.
I dine regularly at Tomos and love it! The staff is invested, well trained, friendly, and they provide great service. Sushi and greens are fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented.
Went for lunch. The portions are big for a lunch. Cant imagine the dinner portions.The sushi roll had a decent portion of fish. Their sauces and dressing are very tasty! Service was friendly.
This place is amazing, with an incredible staff Mimi is FANTASTIC shes so nice her customer service is top notch! Cant wait to go back!!! Thank you for being such a wonderful place to go!!
I love this place! Great atmosphere. Great food. Always a great time. The sushi is great, many choices, always delicious. I also absolutely love the teriyaki salmon and chicken. Great dishes as well. Would highly recommend.
Had chirashi sushi. The sashimi portion and size were very generous; however, the sushi rice was terrible. Barely had any vinegar mixed in. We also had to wait for a long time to get our food. The waitress was very attentive and gave us complementary mochi ice-cream which was nice.
I cant believe this place is still in business. I ate here back in the mid 1990s and the food was good: Id had better sushi before, but the prices were fairly reasonable, the food was better than fair and I never got too sick after a meal.The one major drawback back then was that the sushiman was a white guy, and a surly hick of a white guy at that. He was largely uncommunicative, which was uncomfortable because--back then--the bar only had about 5 seats. Im used to boisterous, fun, Japanese sushimen who are a blast to get drunk, because then they give huge servings. This guy never drank, never smiled and his sushi tasted like it was made by a honkey... and it wasBut Ive had worse.
Your typical Japanese food with good choices for apps, entrees, and sushi. They have plated entrees and all kinds of sushi and hand rolls freshly made at the sushi bar. I was pleasantly surprised how the food and drinks were pretty authentic and great tasting sushi, but i saw no sign of Japanese working at the sushi bar or wait staff, unless they were in the kitchen. Definately unexpected in a town like Arcata where there is not much if any Japanese or Asian people.
We stoped in last night and had to come back tonight!!! Yes 100% if in town or driving by you should stop!! Oysters shooters delicious and my lemon salmon roll was to die for!!!! Everyone was so nice!!!
Great place! The ling cod dinner is amazing! Get it spicy. Also the happy hour has $2 pints--you can get ripped for like ten bucks
Best sushi in the county. I know they serve food other than sushi, but why? If you order something with spicy salmon skin you wont be disappointed.
The food was very good. The atmosphere is relaxed and convivial; full of noise from friendly conversation. They had sippy cups for our kids as well as booster seat and highchair.I recommend getting a reservation.
The food is always fresh and delicious, staff members hands out awesome service. I like the cleanliness and mood. Worth a try.
Probably the worst sushi ive had. Rolls were poorly made and fell apart. Fish was mushy in both rolls we got. The steelhead special was good but did not make up for the sushi or bad Moscow mule.
Great sushi! Gets busy. The Tomo salad is really good and filling. Try the unique rolls, strawberry dream and larrapin and the Humboldt honey.
Ive been eating at tomo for years, Ive had several birthdays there and always had a good experience. The restuarant had a fire a year ago and has reopened better than before. Good spot for families
Fabulous as always , waitress star was superb, took care of party of seven and made it look effortlessl. Fidel was our buser, he did grat, keeping our table clean an smiling.
Some of the best and most consistent sushi and Japanese food in Humboldt. Love the Japanese Cowboy, ebi spicy salad hand roll, and all of their specials are always on point.
The food here makes me angry because I live 1000 miles away and cant come back every week. Probably the best sushi Ive had outside of Japan (and better than some Ive had in Japan).
Sushi definitely wasnt the best I have had. Service was slow and not the best. Pretty expensive for average sushi. I probably wouldnt eat there again.
Great sushi! Fantastic staff! Comfortable atmosphere! I cant say enough about this place its great! So worth the price!
The staff was very nice but the food and sushi was such a disappointment. I used to love this restaurant 3 years ago but its just gone down hill. The food was soupy, the sushi rice was stale, the bar now has a TV with loud sports on and people yelling. Not the relaxing environment it use to be.
The service and the sushi are both great. The sushi was fresh and reasonably priced. We had dinner there three times in one week!
I prefer this venue very much. there is a great atmosphere. The meals are superb. the service is effective and the personel is very professional. The price is satisfactory. truly recommend.
I very much enjoy Tomo. They have well done traditional style rolls, overlooked classics (such as the lunch noodle bowl, and spicy salad-style scallop nigiri, oh and grilled shishito peppers) as well as new school vegetarian/CA style rolls.
Best Sushi in Humboldt County! Our familys favorite. Excellent food, atmosphere, and service!
Love Tomo! Large selction, great customer service, tasty vegetarian rolls. Nice for intimate dinners and also larger parties. Highly recommend!
Amazing food and the best waitors/waitresses of any place Ive been too. Definitely recommend Tomo over all other sushi places in Humboldt.
Amazing food quality and service is quick, the atmosphere is very friendly and welcoming making it one of my top favorite sushi restaurants in Humboldt county
Food is fine. Always feel like I am dining in a cafeteria, and not a sushi restaurant. Typically good, just could have better atmosphere.
Our favorite restaurant in Humboldt County. Always great service and really good food. They take good care of our kids. Many memories here.
For Humboldt sushi, this is the spot. No sushi in Humboldt will blow you away. So this place at least has a full bar, room to banquet, and excellent service.
They screw up the order or ring up the ticket wrong more than half of the time... Not going back.
Really good sushi here and great service
Always great, tonight especially on. Food was done perfect and delivered to the table fresh, despite being a busy night. So glad they recovered from the fire.
This place is a great sushi restraunt and at happy hour the prices are really great I had a decent meal for around 20$ and the service was excellent.
Excellent food and service. Will continue to eat there at every opportunity. Try their happy hour! 2$ pints!
Been going for years. Had sushi in so many other places. Tomos rocks it. Best sushi anywhere. OXOX
Good dining and variety to choose from.
Great food, and great staff. It can get pretty busy so make sure you have a reservation.
Great sushi. Very friendly staff. Veigtarian friendly. Great place. Highest price around but worth it.
I had a combination plate with the Ling Cod entree and California roll and the entree was SOO GOOOOOD. Good atmosphere, friendly staff, Ill go again.
The sushi is so good. Try the tomo dragon roll if you want sushi. The service is so friendly and energetic.
The Chicken Katsu and sushi is very good. The Happy Hour has tasty inexpensive foods.
Overpriced, and really lame vegan options. Possibly close to the saddest sushi I’ve ever had.
Good service. Very busy. Chicken katsu wasnt to my taste. Gyoza and miso soup were delicious.
Some of the best sushi I have ever had. Seriously. Go. They will not disappoint.
Some of the best sushi, really great sauces and appetizers.
You dont realize how amazing Tomo is until you leave Humboldt. Well to be very specific, for vegan or vegetarian sushi.
Amazing food, the best calamari I have ever had, hands down. Cant wait to go back.
I love Tomos! Im Always treated so well and the food is wonderful. Thanks Tomos
Great food and service! The kitchen rocks with timing and the servers are kind and efficient :)
Teriyaki chicken half order on rice and sometimes a new tshirt too
The place serves large portions and for affordable rates. welcoming employees. I recommend this place.
Goto for bday meals. Or when craving fish and wasabi sinus treatment.
Menu is unique and food is great but for the dirty carpet environment and poor service from college kids, the price you pay isnt worth the food alone.
Always a favorite when I come back to my college town. Great food but can get a little noisy during busy times
One of my favorite places to get sushi in Humboldt. Great atmosphere and A+ sushi
I had the Teriyaki Salmon & Rice..... Must delicious 😋
Good food, great customer service. sometimes a bit slow due to popularity and the price is on the higher side.

Absolutely recommend coming here and our waiter wasP h e n o m e n a lI cant wait to go again!!
Food was great. I recommend the butsugiri. Other restaurant patrons were intolerable.
Great waitress, atmosphere, and delicious (vegetarian) sushi, I loved the Humboldt Hunny.
Great Service. Amazing food! Explosion on the taste buds.
Good basic sushi.....better than I expected for Arcata but not the best in town. Try the chicken katsu.
Yum. Always fresh and delicious....a personal favorite of the whole family.
Blackberry saki margarita goes great with anything on the menu. The sashimi is great.

2022-04-22Nice and super attentive servers. Good food. The tofu teriyaki is a bit sweet, but the texture is very interesting, Ive never had tofu made like that anywhere else. My dinner bento box comes with a spicy tofu roll which tastes amazing, and a salad which is supposed to have shrimps but they skipped it even though I didnt even ask. I guess they figured that out themselves because I ordered all vegetarian items. They sat us right next to the fish tank because I took a picture of it first thing when we walked in. I love it when people detect these subtleties. The bathroom is shared with a hotel, clean and well stocked, and it requires a code to enter.

2021-07-21Our server, Luis, was fantastic, but the place is clearly understaffed. The wait times to order and receive food were long. However, the the food was great and very well priced. For appetizers, we ordered fried scallops and rainbow poké. Both were good, poké was better. For rolls, we ordered #4, #7, and the special Coco cabana roll. All were good but the special rolls was by far the best. Worth noting, most rolls were cooked opposed to raw, might be a common for the area.

2022-03-23Ive been going to this restaurant for at least 15 years. This is my current favorite sushi place in Humboldt. Its ALWAYS done right. They have a wide variety and its always been fresh. Never sloppy.They can get very busy on the weekends though, just a heads up. Try to come before 6pm to get a table

2021-05-18If the photo below doesnt encourage you to try this place out, if you havent already, bless your soul. I have never been disappointed by Tomos service, rolls, and delivery of food items. Everything Ive tried here is made with detail and so much flavor! Please be adventurous when going here. You wont be disappointed!

2022-04-18We went during their happy hour and I must say that, though expensive for small portions, their happy hour appetizers are DELICIOUS! Their chicken was so perfect and they had actual karaage! Super light and crispy.I was a little sad by the lack of variety, it felt like, from their sushi menu. Especially as someone who is practically obsessed with unagi. I must say though, every fish/meat that we got was cooked absolutely flawlessly. Perfectly done.And they have ramune!!

2021-12-14Disappointing...and it was highly recommended to me so that made it even more disappointing.I am not into drinking so this isnt a review of their happy hour. I ordered the fried prawns, their number 4 specialty roll, a BBQ eel roll with tamago and I think a Philadelphia roll along with a miso soup. While the soup was good, and the Philadelphia roll average, the prawns were crispy enough but I didnt understand the sauce you were supposed to dip it in. It was like watery, bland, vaguely lemony or gingery broth with green onion floating in it giving it no extra taste. I didnt end up liking the eel but that is personal taste so my husband took that one. The specialty roll ended up being one of those oversized rolls that are wide with the nori on the outside, and it was also so bland and the fish had a strange texture. It didnt seem like anything in that roll was really done well including the rice, which might have been overdone or too starchy or something, it just wasnt good. They at least comped that one when we told them about it so that was nice.

2021-11-03Great local sushi spot! Full bar. Large dining space. Not only is their food delicious, but their presentation is on point too! I also appreciate that their tables are spread out a good distance during Covid and staff members wear masks. They get busy, so plan accordingly.

2021-09-28#1 dont be in a hurry. Food came out Very slowly. We ordered dinner combo with each having choice of main and a roll. Ordered lemon drop martinis and I sent mine back as it was just straight vodka. The second was better but not great. My husband said later he should have sent his back too. Both left sitting on the table. Food arrived 1 hour 15 minutes after ordering. And we left 15 minutes after it arrived. We did have nice lunches the next day. Katsu chicken was dry however.
