Great vegan sushi

We loved the vegan sushi rolls we ordered. I can't remember the names, but one was citrus and super refreshing, and the other was just fantastic all around. The atmosphere was also very cute. This is a great place to go if you are a vegan. They had tons of clearly marked vegan appetizers, mains, and sushi rolls. We also got the veggie tempura, it was okay, but we've had way better. If we went back we'd skip it and get another roll instead!

Pros: Sushi rolls, Clearly marked vegan items

Delicious sushi at a good price

I have never been to a sushi restaurant with so many vegan options. They even had vegan miso soup which is strangely unavailable in most places. The sushi was SO GOOD and the prices were great. Honestly, it was comparable to what we would spend at a burger place for a family of four. The only problem was that I have never waited so long to get sushi. It must have taken 45 minutes from order to table. Maybe because it was the end of the night? Even with that, we would definitely return the next time we are in the area.

Pros: Vegetarian omakase, Vegan sushi rolls, Vegan tempura

Cons: Long wait after ordering

Grateful for their vegan sushi

First of all, their 70 roll is the absolute best. The smoked tofu roll, actually, I’ve never had a vegan roll here that I didn’t like. The free miso soup when you first sit down, the friendly staff… I’ve never had a bad experience at Aonami Sustainable Sushi. Can’t wait to go back.

Pros: Great vegan sushi, Good prices, Good service

Hit the spot

Had to be in Chico around dinner time so we came back here. So happy we did. We shared the veggie tempura and I had the 20th roll (asparagus, avocado, cucumber, daikon sprouts, spicy miso sauce and crunchy shallots). Fantastic!

Pros: separate vegan menu, affordable , super, friendly staff

Cons: way too far from our home (90 minutes away)

Some of the best sushi I've ever had

This place is really delicious. I ordered two vegan omakase (chef's choice) rolls. They're more expensive than any of the other rolls, so I was expecting something special, and they exceeded my expectations. The rolls were gorgeous (unfortunately I didn't get a great photo) and all tasted really great. The tempura was also really yum. I'm dreaming about returning... One negative to note was that it took them a really long time to make. There seems to be one person making all the sushi at the moment and they're pretty popular.

Pros: A lot of vegan options, Very high quality, Very delicious

Cons: Long wait time

Vegan Sushi

Best sushi in town by far, especially for vegans! No cucumber rolls here, just actual imaginative and unique rolls for vegans as well as omnivores. There's something for everyone on their menu including non sushi items and they are always doing cool specials. Vegans should definitely check out their Tofu Tuesday Special. My partner and I have been coming here since they started out on Nord and it has been great to watch them grow and become successful. It is the only sushi place in town we go to.

Pros: Unique menu, Great atmosphere, Friendly staff

Cons: Can be pricey, Not a lot of seating so wait times can get long

Delicious vegan rolls

Instead of serving something bland and boring like avocado rolls or asparagus rolls they actually put effort and innovation into their vegan rolls and they were downright delicious! I wish I lived in the area so I could hit this place a few times a month, but I feel lucky to visit and come here anyhow.

Pros: vegan options are high effort and taste amazing

Awesome!

Incredible vegan rolls. I just went there for lunch, and I'm considering going back for dinner! Lots of other vegan options too, if you aren't in the mood for rolls (gyoza, edamame, tofu appetizer, and more).
