    First time here, as we are trying out all the different sushi places in Chico. I had never heard of or noticed this place, but the yelp reviews were great, so we went. Tables were full but there was space at the bar so we were immediately seated. We ordered the Elm roll to split, and it was amazing! They served miso soup, on the house, which was nice. Staff were all attentive, and service from the waitress was quick.

    Aonami is my favorite sushi spot in town. Their miso soup is really good. The Gilman roll is amazing, I get it every time. Intimate table seating, or sit at the bar. Service is always, always impeccable.

    My husband and I were having a really rough day with evacuation from the fires in Oroville and decided to treat ourselves to a nice dinner. We came about an hour before closing and didn't get our food until closing, and it ended up being someone else's order. My husband ordered a Chef's Choice roll, so when it came with a name we didn't recognize, we figured that was the roll the kitchen made. We waited for the other roll we ordered, not eating anything, and realized this time that the name wasn't right. Our order had gotten mixed up with the people behind us, who had already started eating. Julia was amazing and offered to get us mochi ice cream and drinks on the house. We didn't end up leaving until over 30 minutes after closing, and the restaurant was still busy. Julia was so kind and helpful despite having to stay late, and our food ended up being delicious. We will definitely be back, despite the hiccups!
