Only a mile away from Gunn, Sushi Tomo is located at 4131 El Camino Way. The service is friendly but somewhat slow, which suits the laid-back atmosphere. On regular nights, there are a few tables, as well as a sushi bar, open for seating.

It is not the best idea to eat at Sushi Tomo if fruits and vegetables are a must in your diet. Consisting mostly of carbohydrates and meat, Sushi Tomo is not ideal for those who like a balanced meal.

Otherwise, the choices vary greatly. There are over 40 different kinds of sushi rolls, such as the New York roll ($3.50) and the caterpillar roll ($7.95).

If you want high quality sushi, however, don’t bother coming—you get what you pay for. The fish is not as fresh as it could be and the taste is not impressive. The few vegetarian dishes include vegetable udon ($6.95), inari ($1.75) and green salad. The chicken teriyaki is superb, and the sashimi combo dinner is excellent for those craving the taste of raw fish.

If you are up for dessert after finishing your meal, give their green tea ice cream a try. The ice cream blends a hint of bittersweetness with a frozen yogurt flavor, an irresistible combination that only leaves you wanting more of this delicious treat.

Although it is not the best or fanciest sushi restaurant around, Sushi Tomo is a great place for casual gatherings with friends and family.
