Lunch with family. Friendly service. Well presented sushi rolls. Good variety of specials. Huge lunch specials. Miso soup starter. Great wall art depicting sushi rolls.

Sushi was ok. The rolls looked different and pretty, but all kinda tasted the same. I did kinda like the thinner sliced sizes, but it did make hard them to stay together. Staff was nice. Sake was way too hot to drink or pick up. I had not been here in years.

I ordered one deep fried roll and waited 20 minutes. I heard the workers talking about my order and seemed like it was lost. I didn’t mind waiting, but the roll tasted like it was rushed and pulled from the fryer too fast. It wasn’t crunchy but soft. I would’ve appreciated if they could’ve communicated what happened and get my food cooked all the way. The workers seemed nice and the lemonade I slid for was huge. Maybe just a bad night? Idk if I’ll try again.

Can I rate this restaurant with more than 5 Stars? The whole experience for me was fantastic!!! From the moment we walked in the door we were greeted! We sat at the sushi bar and we were lucky enough to meet the owner Kenny! I also had the opportunity to experience awesome sushi by Josh! Our server Faith was also awesome as she stayed on top of our orders! I have been to many Sushi restaurants and boy let me tell you…this place is hands down the BEST I’ve had so far! We left most of our order up to the chef and everything he prepared was super delicious! My FAVE was the Sashimi! The next time I visit Santa Cruz, Sushi Totoro will be my first stop! The little hole in the wall with a HUGE heart!!!

Delicious! I called ahead to see if they could accommodate a group of 7, when we arrived the tables were set and ready for us. Excellent service and the food was SO good. If I visit Santa Cruz again I will definitely make a stop at Sushi Totoro!

The delivery went quick, but everything was nightmare. No utensils, bad food quality, less say sauce and all of those roll crushed. I should have just ordered poke house.

Food was decent but the service was terrible. Waited 45 mins after ordering for our appetizer to come out and then another 20 for our food. Felt like a slap in the face when people placing take out orders next to us were told it would be a ten minute wait for a similar order.Servers just stood and chatted in the back of the restaurant and didnt check in at all. Dropped our food off but didnt drop off any plates? I had to stare them down each time to get any kind of service.I eat out fairly often and usually never have any problem but I can say this has been the worst experience Ive had. The food was decent but the service was just so sub par

Great sushi place with an adorable theme. Gets crowded pretty quickly and sometimes the staff takes awhile to get to you but I’m glad the place is so busy. The sushi is great and definitely one of the fav places EVER

Fantastic birthday dinner. We are not from the area, but worth a trip if you are in town. Great vibe, excellent service and delicious sushi.

I cannot believe its taken me so long to write a review for this place. THIS restaurant is the place to go for sushi in Santa Cruz. Ive been going here for a little over two years now and its absolutely the only place I go anymore for sushi. Incredible service, fresh fish, and just the most delicious rolls youve ever had. The fish melts in your mouth and basically the whole menu is delicious. The only thing Id say is the miso soup is a bit overly salty, but thats never been a problem for me. Cant recommend Sushi Totoro ENOUGH! GO HERE!!
