Teru Japanese Cuisine - Santa Barbara

Amazing food!!! We loved it!!! Rio gave fantastic service!!!The shrimp tempura and the edamame were fantastic!!!!

Highly recommend dining here! Some of the best sushi I’ve ever had (and I’ve had a lot ?)Food: 10/10. Here’s our standouts: bluefish trio (special) melts in your mouth. So fresh! oyster uni (special) one of the best things we’ve ever eaten! baked eggplant toro taku roll: toro uni welcome roll: topped with salmon and a basil truffle oil. So good!Overall, I don’t think you can go wrong with anything in the specials menu. It changes each day with what’s fresh!They also have a rotating sake on their specials menu, which is fun to try new ones!

Clean, fresh flavors and savory cuts of fish. We never fail to find a dish we must order from the specials board!Chef Teru has created a great space for a truly Japanese experience

The food and service are amazing! I had the New Zealand salmon nigiri special and the Dream Press Box. The best!!

One of the best sushi I had in my life. More than correct prices for the center of Santa Barbara. Friendly staff. Nice place with beautiful paintings on the wall, by a local artist.
