ReviewsGood sushi Aomatsu is the only sushi restaurant in the Corvallis-Albany area; fortunately, it's pretty good. I don't care for the raw fish menu items, but my husband and friends tell me they're good. The California rolls (rice, seaweed, crab and avocado) are excellent, and so are the Corvallis rolls (a California roll plus cooked eel).

The tempura is OK, but the only real reason to order it is if a bunch of sushi-loving friends drag you in, and you don't really like sushi. The only real complaint I have about Aomatsu is that its hours stink. It's open for lunch, then closed from (I think) 2 to 5 p.m. Sometimes we'd like to have a late lunch, or pick up dinner early; it's frustrating that Aomatsu is closed in the afternoon. Also, they are closed Sundays and Mondays. Food Rating [6/10] Service Rating [8/10] Ambiance Rating [6/10] Poor service, good sushi This is a revision to my earlier review. We had mostly used Aomatsu for take-out, not eat-in. In the last few months, we've eaten at Aomatsu on several occasions. This is a revision to my earlier review. We had mostly used Aomatsu for take-out, not eat-in. In the last few months, we've eaten at Aomatsu on several occasions. The service is really poor. Last night, our order was brought in several installments -- first our California rolls, then about 15 minutes later my tempura came, then another 15 minutes later, my husband got the rest of the sushi he had ordered. This is just an example; it's happened more than once (if it were only once, I would assume they were having a tough night, and let it go). Some members of the waitstaff are surly, though most of them are very nice. I assume the reason for the bad service is that Aomatsu is very busy and, apparently, understaffed. That's too bad, but it doesn't make it OK. I would recommend getting takeout if you're in Corvallis and have a jones for sushi. If you eat in at Aomatsu, be ready for long waits and waitresses who are too stressed to be friendly. Food Rating [8/10] Service Rating [4/10] Ambiance Rating [6/10]
