We were there last night and sat upstairs at the ductwork. The view of the place was nice, just a little loud. The service was good, the sushi was good. I prefer the Elk Grove location. I'm sure we'll be back at some point.

This is a great place to party down with your friends in a more sophisticated atmosphere than other large party places in town. And, the food is very good.

Food was fresh and delicious and this place gets real busy in the evening. Definitely worth a visit.

I don't eat out often (can't afford it) but my friends eat here and love it! I have several friends that like Mikuni! I will try it sometime for sure!

I have only been here once, but was pleasantly impressed with this upscale sushi restaurant in the heart of downtown sac. A little on the pricy side for everyday dining, but not bad for once in a while. They have a very diverse menu with many original items.

This is the place that sets the bar for sushi. Period. Sit at the sushi bar and ask the chefs to make you anything they are in the mood for, I promise you will enjoy!!

Each location has a different early bird set up. It's really good food if you can make it there for their early bird menu. Love their food and service.

Went to this restaurant for dinner based on the reviews I read here. It's a spacious sushi restaurant with big screen TVs throughout so it was cool as March Madness was in full swing. Nice fresh sushi. I had the California 2 roll, the Incredible and the Freaky Edamame (though the freaky was a bit heavy in oil). The service... More

The name says it all. I've been going to Mikuni as long as I can remember when Im in the area. We arrived right at 12 and got what I believe was the last table...a line formed and kept growing. The place was packed on a Friday lunch. We ordered sushi. You can go wrong here with any sushi and... More

We were looking at some Japanese before we went back to Australia. TA recommended Mikuni. We arrived and were told we could have a table, but the sushi bar was full. We got a table on the edge, and were served immediately by Emily, who gave us some information. We noticed that there was a $40 special, 1 course from... More
