Reviews for Aji Japanese Bistro in El Dorado Hills, CA

Great sushi and street food dishes! Service (5/5): service minded staff that took there time! Food (4/5): great food with good... palette of flavours. Atmosphere (3/5): Good. Nothing out of the ordinary. Overall, decently worth a visit and if I would havelived near by I would defiantly become a regular. Read more

Not much of a sushi fan but did dine there because of a family event. I ended up ordering a hamburger that came with a side of... fries. The burger was a disappointment, as it came on a couple slices of toast. Very cheaply done and came with a high price tagof 16 bones I believe. I'm sure most people will enjoy this place for their sushi. Read more

We moved to the area earlier this year & haven’t really explored all the restaurants just yet but came upon this after my wife... gave birth & wanted her sushi fix after a long 9 months. We were seated right away on a Friday evening and the place was packed& vibe was amazing. Staff was super friendly & gave awesome recommendations on popular items from the menu. We loved everysingle item we ordered and they all tasted amazing. We sat indoor and they had beautiful decor all around. Hope we are able toget seating outdoor next time! Will definitely be back again to try out more of the menu! Read more

Very pleasant and laid back staff. The sushi chef definitely appreciated his work and welcomed the gratitude for his... artisanship. Which we gave to him, because it was awesome! They are still working on some of the place, near the bathroommainly, that said, the place has a very modern/chill/laid back feel. The music wasn't too loud, the food was served at theperfect temperature, it wasn't too dark or too bright. I had a great time! The food was fantastic, the staff was great, whatelse can you ask for? 20-30$ a head and well worth it! Thanks guys! Read more

Beautiful view of the fountain and delicious food. We ordered rolls, ramen and miso soup, everything was perfect, especially... fast service (about 10 min??). A cozy place looks like somewhere in Italy, quiet street, sidewalk and nice patio. My kids wereplaying in front of me and let me enjoy the lunch Read more

great service, food and atmosphere. Bibimbap & peach cheese cake. Yummo! Update: February 28 2020 Came in for celebratory... beverage and grilled shishito peppers. The Smoked Old fashion arrived 15 minutes after my shishito peppers which trailed thewaiter with water by 8 minutes. I was seated 8 minutes before I was approached by the server. So service is now very slow andseems to be on the shoulders of the bartenders. The shishito peppers timing was reasonable but the time to take my order waslacking. Food and beverage was as expected. Update: May 2022 My wife an I came in and had a great meal. The service wasoutstanding sitting at the bar. People have good and bad days and because of the many times I have had a wonderful experience Ihave concluded the one time I did not may have been someones bad day. Read more

I had Spicy Chicken ramen and some fries as a side. The noodles from the ramen were so flavorful and I liked the texture. The... water was spicy, in a very good way, and the rest of the ingredients complimented each other nicely. I really liked the layoutand design of the restaurant as well. Read more

Can't even express how much I love this place - fresh, delicious, creative twists on classic Japanese dishes, plus a few... surprises. The mango eggplant appetizer is a fave, but you really can't go wrong with anything on the menu. And the cheesecakeis GREAT. ???? Read more
