   Simply an outstanding experience. We attended the reservation omekase experience. The small venue was comfortably seated, and with fewer patrons than a larger place means a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. The staff were attentive, friendly, and seemed genuinely happy. The chef's passion for his work, both the food itself and the ambience of the location, was clearly visible. I greatly enjoyed learning about the food itself as well as the intention behind its creation. I was pleasantly surprised by several of the dishes, having never had such a silky smooth savory custard or properly aged sushi ingredients. The flavors were superb, the presentation lovely, and the location easy to get to.

   This is a stunningly good experience - not just a meal. The passion the small staff had for their food and its delivery was palpable. Treat yourself to a special night out. Each course was exquisite.

   This was my second time dining at Hikari and Chef Sithu and his staff provided yet another out of this world Omakase dining experience. If you are wanting an authentic, elegant, creative and seasonal meal, you need to dine at Hikari. It is formal yet unpretentious and the intimate setting (only seats approx. 12) allows the Chef to share information about the fresh ingredients and method of food preparation in such an engaging manner. And I love that this is located in Davis. It is like having our own version of the Kitchen but sushi only. And the quality of fish is just as good if not better than Kru.

   Omakase at Hikari was wonderful. We got to experience a one of a kind meal as we are in a limbo between winter and spring and they work with seasonal ingredients. It was delicious and palatable. The wife/husband owner duo were lovely and attentive throughout service, as were the two servers. My partner and I will definitely be back!

   Amazing dining experience. The owner and chefs introduced each course with background on the sourcing, aging, and preparation of each dish. Small intimate restaurant, perhaps twelve diners, open to kitchen. Inventive dishes with fresh ingredients and a commitment to supporting sustainable practices. We will definitely come back!

    WOW!! I went to Hikare before and tried to describe it to my "foodie" family, using every superlative possible. Then I took them there last weekend and they said it was way BETTER than I'd described. Every bite is amazing; unusual, exquisite tastes all beautifully prepared. It is true omikase; you get what the chef prepares. And he does a FABULOUS job!! We were all full and satisfied. My STRONGEST recomomendation!

    We had an amazing experience at Hikari Sushi, we did the Omakase experience. What a special experience it was, the fish was so fresh so delicious, just melts in you’re mouth. The plating was beautiful. Each dish unique. The chefs were so friendly so pleasant. The sake selection is on point. Can’t wait to go back. Would drive 1hr again just for this place.

    Omakase at Hikari is the experience that every sushi lover dreams of. All the fish was so fresh and perfectly prepared to highlight the flavors. Sithu and Zin put a lot of heart and passion into their craft, it truly is an art to watch them and dine with them. I’ve gone twice and it was even better the second time around because they’re always striving for perfection. My favorite dishes include the blue fin tuna and uni. I always try new dishes every time I come and I always learn more about the world of sushi.

    We arrived early. They told us to wait for another 10 minutes, then they closed the main door. It was cold outside so my family killed time by walking in downtown Davis. We have been to other Japanese fine dining experience. Usually, they let the patrons/customer come inside, get them settled & offer drinks while waiting. When you celebrate a special occasion like birthdays. You usually get a special shout out or a Happy Birthday writing on the dessert. We try to support businesses in Davis esp family owned. The chef owner explained each dish, it was educational. All the seafood esp the fish were fresh and of high quality. Loved the wagyu and tuna. It was delicious. Service was great. Overall, we had a great Omakase experience for a family of 4 ( 2 teenagers ).

    Amazing Omakase experience! We’ve also been in for Hikari a couple of times. The sushi (all of the food, really) is of exceptional quality. Service is on par with the best restaurants we’ve been to. This little gem is great to have closer to home compared to places like San Francisco, Napa, or Sacramento. (We live in Winters.) I highly recommend it though, for selfish reasons, don’t want it to get too popular and then have difficulty getting in myself! Seriously though, the best sushi around!

    HiKari was amazing. I am so excited that we finally have such an awesome high end restaurant in Davis. The sushi was delicious and varied. Each bite was special as well as beautiful. They have created a warm comfortable serene setting in their tiny space. The service was attentive, thoughtful and informative. I have been to some high end Japanese restaurants in Sacramento and San Francisco and HiKari was the best. We hope to make this our New Year’s Eve tradition.

    An intimate, elegant and artistic dining experience in Davis. The food is outstanding...MICHELIN star quality. The personal touch placed on each of their Omakase entrees was a tasting experience in itself. We enjoyed tasting a wide variety of seafood, beef and vegetables. If you love The Kitchen in Sacramento-Hikari is a must. Can't wait to go back!

    The Omakase featured the most authentic sushi I have had outside of Japan. Beautifully prepared and presented. A pleasure to watch the team in action. The chef also explained the various courses and the unique features of the ingredients. The sake selection is excellent. We should not have had even the light lunch that day though. We will be back.

    A true gem in Davis! The 16-course omakase meal was of incredible quality, from the edamame to the trio of bluefin tuna. The food was beautifully presented, the pace was not rushed and the service was warm and welcoming.

    Very solid omakase. Service was slow, and there are many opportunities to be more efficient in prep. Additionally, too much blow torch use. Chef did a great job engaging with the patrons and explaining the story behind each dish.

    The Omakase experience was amazing! Best dinner I've ever had. Every dish was complex in flavor and in detail. At this time it is $125 per person, and it's worth it. Every dollar. Imagine that everything you eat is meticulously crafted, and on purpose. It is a party in your mouth, like all the time, with everything they serve you. The food they serve you will burn a memory in your tongue, stomach, and brain. If you like sushi or Japanese food you will be doing yourself a dishonor for not trying this.

    Went for special price fixe dinner. Amazing service. Dishes were interesting and some were special. However, each serving was not excellent and the last course with the Kobe beef was too raw. I think the idea is very good but it’s not worth the money.

    The omakase experience was exquisite. The fish was the freshest I've ever tasted, the combinations of tastes and textures beautiful, the presentation gorgeous. It was a lot of fun to watch the chef and assistants prepare the food and wait staff were very professional. One suggestion: a list of the night's menu (could be printed, projected on the screen above the counter, on a whiteboard). It was sometimes hard to hear the chef as he announced each new course and also hard to remember all the components of each item as we were eating. A fantastic meal, well worth the price. We will be back, with friends, to share this incredible experience.
