We have been here many times and My favorite roll is always NUMBER ONE ROLL, Spider Roll. Now, I find my second favorite roll is Dragon roll without avocado as I can request NO AVOCADO. 👍! It is a nice touch that they add a little side salad alongside the roll. Forgot taking a picture 😂. Will update the picture next time. Monday, there is a special price on Hand Roll. Update June 27-2024, Guest what's everyone, we are still married to this restaurant 😜. And this time, they just added a dessert on their side menu. Mochi ice cream is served in a fancy way. Who would have thought it was a counter service dessert huh😘

We are from out of town and just happened upon this place and decided to eat here because the place next door was too busy and I am so glad we did! I was shocked when I went back to read the reviews and it was poorly rated. Our food came out quickly, was really good and very generous portions--Salmon Terriyaki with rice, salad, miso and sauteed veggies--I had no idea it came with all that. And my Salmon was moist but crispy and so flavorful!! Food was good, service was fast and kind and we sat outside and they came over and offered to turn the heater on, I am so happy!!! Spicy garlic edamame was so good too! Great specials, good service and a variety of options. Both my boyfriend and I loved it and we eat Sushi all the time! Highly recommend!

Don't pay attention to the bad reviews about Brandon. We almost didn't try this place because of that. But we did. He's the last person that would be rude! He was so nice and helpful!! The food was rockin! Super fresh too!! So glad we came!

The service was honestly worth noting. The young girl who served us was quick and getting after it! No hesitation to serve. And she served with care and attention. Besides her, you noticed the other staff were really trying to do their job well. Great staff and good food 💯

Sushi Ai is a hidden gem! We’ve been going here for more than 5 years, and it never disappoints. The sushi is always fresh, beautifully presented, and bursting with flavor. The staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, making every visit a pleasure. Whether you’re craving classic rolls or creative specialties, this spot is consistently amazing. Highly recommend!

Let’s get straight to what matters most: the sushi. Every single piece I tried was beyond fresh, expertly prepared, and bursting with flavor. The balance of textures and flavors in each roll was nothing short of perfection. Unlike many places that overload their rolls with sauces to mask lower-quality ingredients, This place allows the natural beauty of the fish to shine. The spicy tuna roll was one of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly spiced with just the right amount of heat without overpowering the delicate taste of the fish. The salmon avocado roll was incredibly creamy, with buttery salmon that practically melted in my mouth. And don’t even get me started on the yellowtail scallion roll—it was a masterclass in simplicity done right, highlighting the pristine quality of the fish. For those who love crunch, the shrimp tempura roll is a must-try. The tempura was fried to crisp perfection without being greasy, adding just the right amount of texture to every bite. The restaurant also offers a fantastic selection of specialty rolls that take classic flavors and elevate them with unexpected yet complementary ingredients.

The sushi was genuinely just impeccably bussalicious. Visiting this honest establishment invoked sensations within me, physical reactions I did not know possible until experiencing Sushi Ai Goleta. One could say I sure did "ai" this place!!!!!
