Reviews
We tried sushi spot for the first time for a coworkers birthday and really enjoyed it! There was a huge variety of rolls that were all very reasonably priced and all very delicious! We shared several different rolls and we all liked all of them. The service was amazing, the woman who was working while we were there was so kind and helpful and even brought us out extra plates and knives and forks when we brought out the cake we bought for our coworker. The restaurant is very small so you should call to make a reservation. I would definitely return in the future!
Best sushi I've ever had. Staff was very friendly and helpful, and the outside patio was the perfect place to sit. Will always come back here when we're visiting.
I absolutely LOVE this restaurant. Let me get the cons out of the way: 1. Location isn't that great because the restaurant is small so it can only hold a small amount of parties at a time and it can get pretty busy. The parking can be a hit or miss because it can fill up due to the other businesses located in the area. But if you go right when they open or right after lunch rush, then you're set! And to be honest, it is worth the wait. 2. The menu is HUGE. I personally like the variety, the pictures provided and the descriptions given. But I've gone to the restaurant with other people who say the menu can be a bit overwhelming. I recommend giving yourself a head start by looking at menus and pictures on yelp so you know what to order. Now, what's great about the restaurant? The portion sizes, taste, quality and service! The portion sizes are fair for the price and it's hard to order anything that doesn't taste good. There's are items for those that don't like seafood, but limited items for those that are vegetarian or vegan. But let's be honest, this is a sushi restaurant. The quality of fish is great for the price you pay. And the service? Top notch. They're attentive and pay attention to detail. You also get one free miso soup. The food comes out pretty fast so you can be in and out of there. But again, this is based on the times I've went and I've been there during lunch, lunch rush, after lunch, and dinner. It's always been consistent for me.
Saw a review on IG and decided to give this a shot. We arrived around 6pm on a Friday evening so we weren't sure we would get in. It is a small restaurant with very limited seating. (6 tables) Lucky for us we were greeted with a smile and warm welcome as we walked in. She asked how many and we said six and there happened to be one table left open and it seated 6! As we looked through the menu she asked for our drink orders. Once those arrived she brought us each a bowl of miso soup. It was unexpected and really hit the spot. We ordered some shrimp tempura, four different sushi rolls, chicken katsu and for dessert fried Oreos with ice cream. The items arrived one by one as they were made. First out was the shrimp tempura. 2 pieces for a great starter with the miso. Next out was the crab tempura roll. Delicious. After that the chicken katsu came. Crisply fried and the sauce was great. The Kamikaze roll was next. May have been a favorite at our table. My selection was the Lion King. Delicious! The pieces are stuffed so full and high that you had to take two bites. So good. This roll is baked and the cream cheese left it so creamy I may have been wise to use a fork as the chopsticks made it fall apart. It was delicious no matter how sloppy it may have looked as I ate it. The last roll to arrive was the Mt Fuji. It was really good too. There wasn't a roll that we wouldn't order again. We are known for over ordering when we go out but believe it or not to our shock and amazement we ate every bite and had nothing left to take home. The dessert came out and everyone divided it up. Our waitress even brought us some extra ice cream to share. We didn't stick around any longer than we needed to bc there was a line of people waiting to have a seat and our table was in demand. I'd definitely return again. Just beware you may have a wait when you arrive. I believe it would be worth the wait though. Enjoy.
if you like getting sushi that is more meat than rice, this is your place. super fresh and generous portions. Very friendly staff and clean environment. it ain't a pretty store on the outside but don't let that fool you
