Ni Mo Japanese Cuisine & Sushi Bar

A vegetarian person has good number of choices here. Located right in San Mateo downtown. Ni Mo offers good service and has friendly staff. I've been to the place more than twice just for this reason that they have more veg options.

The server starts you off with some fresh boiled whole soybeans to munch on with green tea until the meal is served.

Their vegetarian bento box has all different kinds of Japanese foods one can eat including veg tempura, veg rolls, veg aged tofu, seaweed salad served with salad, miso soup and steamed rice.

In addition to that, they have more than nine different kinds of veg rolls like sour plum, wild carrot, mushroom, fermented soy bean, deep fried yam, pickled radish, cucumber, avocado, and asparagus.

My rating for Ni Mo is 4/5.

Bhavesh, Suraj is in Redwood City. I went there once for a company event long time ago so don't remember it too well. It was a buffet. Bombay Garden is nice. I like the San Mateo one better than Fremont one. Will write about that one soon. :) Udupi Palace is in Sunnyvale but there is one South Indian restaurant in San Mateo now called Annapoorna and another Indian place in Burlingame downtown called Roti (this one's quite hi-fi and quite good as well).

Chinmai, that's absolutely true! I get to explore a lot of places so thought it would be good idea to share my thoughts on here, specially when this place is full of restaurants that make veg food. You're welcome to visit me any time you're in the SF bay area. :) I would love that.
