Sushi in and near Sacramento, CA

When you think of Sacramento, sushi might not be the first word that comes to mind. But the so-called City of Trees is located just a short drive from the Pacific Ocean—a fact that many Sacramento restaurants take full advantage of—and is home to a sizeable population of Japanese immigrants. So it’s really no surprise that some of the best places to eat in Sacramento happen to specialize in raw fish. Take Jensai Sushi in Midtown, for example, where chefs handcraft amazing specialty rolls such as the Jensai Blue Fire, a torched assembly of jalapeños, eel, spicy scallops, and tuna.
