Higuma Japanese

We found this restaurant when we were in Redwood City. We were actually looking for a particular restaurant and turned to Higuma to make a U Turn. Halfway through the U Turn, we decided to park, eat and take our chances. It's on the El Camino Real and really easy to find. You have wonderful Japanese cuisine! My husband had the Ahi and I had the standard Beef Teriyaki/Tempura Combo. The Ahi and Beef Teriyaki were both cooked on a wooden cabbage grill. It is enough just to sit there and smell the food cooking! It is a small place and has a very casual atmosphere and staff. The architecture recalls a Japanese village dinner. The bamboo and the bridges feel like in Japan. You will really enjoy the artworks they show inside. I felt comfortable leaving my place to wonder, only the art they have on the display. Would I go back there? If I'm in the area, I'm sure I'm going out of my way to eat there again. That's good!

It's a small restaurant, so make a reservation or come early if you want a table. The sushi is superb and fresh. They've got unique options like a genuine caviar sushi and barracuda if you're feeling like going off the common path. Otherwise, they have lots of staples. The service was great and there's usually always a waitress looking out for any needing diners. The seating arrangements can be a little cramped though, so I do advise sitting outdoors or just ordering take out if you're trying to feed the extended family.

The staff here are incredibly nice and extremely attentive. I'm in town on a business trip and just picked the sushi place closest to my hotel on a whim. It was a very happy accident, as the sushi rolls were excellent, fresh and flavorful. This is the kind of place you find when you're out of town that you wish was right around the corner from your house.
