Aji Sushi & Grill

Aji Sushi and Grill is a formal and informal (depending on your mood) Asian cuisine restaurant located on Mendocino Avenue in Santa Rosa.
It is apart of the Mendocino Market Place which is a plaza area.
There is handicapped parking as well as wheelchair accessibility to the restaurant. I think this place was a bit over priced, but their food was pretty good.
I had ordered the unagi nigiri and my guest had the ramen.
The unagi nigiri, which is barbecued fresh water eel, had a lot of flavor and melted in my mouth.
I enjoyed their white rice.
I loved the seaweed that came on the side, so crunchy and moist.
The celery and yellow fruit was a nice touch.
My guest had mentioned it wasn’t the best ramen he’s had, but it was pretty good.
They do have vegetarian options like cucumber rolls and more.
I loved how at the end of the meal when they gave you your check they also give you the little Asian yogurt drinks.
So creamy and nice touch for the customers! They are definitely kid friendly as there are plenty of families that dine here. The servers there were attentive and polite. I loved their choice of decor.
I had tried this restaurant around the holidays and they had a very simple yet sophisticated look to their choice of Christmas decorations. To the beautiful people of Sonoma County and visitors abroad I would definitely give Aji Sushi a try.
It was good food, but one time may be enough.
I wouldn’t come here frequently based on their prices.

Friendly atmosphere.
Great food choices. I had the bento box with three items and it was a lot of food. Tempura was crisp, the ratio of meat for the tonkatsu was perfect, loved the salad... Get there early for lunch, it gets packed.

I placed an order online to pick up some sushi and a seaweed salad.
The order was being completed as I walked in and was handed to me over right away - excellent timing! I found my Philly roll to be fresh and delicious.
The seaweed salad was mixed with what appeared to be cucumber, but delicious nevertheless.
I somehow forgot the name of the second roll, but it was good as well.
The only recommendation I would have for the restaurant is to provide a bit more wasabi and soy sauce packets. Will be back!
