It's so nice to have a neighborhood sushi bar in La Quinta. Excellent food and service. See you again soon.

wanted to leave a review of this awesome sushi spot in the valley my partner and i tried out! tian was our server and he was very attentive, kind and fast with our orders. we enjoyed our meal here and were fortunate enough to have tried their yummy green tea ice cream on the house! 10/10 experience and the food was great. would come here again if in the area read more

Food was insanely overpriced for the quality and portions. Paid 17.50 for this spicy tuna. 24 dollars for some mediocre teriyaki chicken and white rice and a little cup of cucumbers?? I've had better from a food court. Will never be going here again. read more

Always an amazing meal! This time tried the yellowtail carpaccio which was incredible, flavors were well balanced and let the fish shine. Will be ordering that every time! Another highlight is the hideaway roll, simple but very tasty! read more

3.5 stars for Coral Sushi. There are a lot of positives to say about the service and decor but I left feeling that the food and price point were not worth it and overall I'm not sure this would be a spot I would frequent again, not for awhile. Starting with the positives this restaurant is darling and they did a fabulous job on the decor. When I walked in I was impressed with how nicely this space was styled and felt very spacious inside. Great decor and plenty of seating. Another bonus is that they have outdoor seating with warmer lamps making it a great spot to dine in the cooler evenings. Service was also super friendly and welcoming. I opted for a to go order from here and when I called in the gal who helped me on the phone was super sweet and clear in her communication. I appreciated that when I came the food was ready for me right when they said it would be. Upon paying at the front the service continued to be hospitable and friendly. Nice people work here and they definitely appreciate your business. Unfortunately this sushi spot is pretty pricey comparable to other spots nearby. Presentation was beautiful and initially had me okay paying a little extra $$ as the rolls were pretty and serving size cuts of fish were good but the flavors were just not there. Very pricy spot to not deliver on amazing bites. One fancy roll, two orders of nigiri and two small veggie fried rices ran us $70+. I was shook. I would say the sushi was about 3/5 at best and the fried rice was 1/5. The best bites had here were just the simple salmon nigiri. Tasty but comparable to anywhere else. Disappointed that the one higher end roll we ordered tasted extremely fishy (usually implies not fresh) and it was hard to eat. The fried veggie rice was mega mega bland. Almost no flavor. We regretted getting two sides of it as one went uneaten and eventually tossed out. That says a lot as we devour our food. The rice just had no real flavor and being a veggie / no protein rice - they barely had any egg. We were bummed. Probably this spot is more 2 stars in my experience for the food but maybe it just wasn't the best time of the year to eat here with the freshness of the product or something? I still want to give three stars as the staff couldn't be nicer and it's a cute restaurant. Sorry that this newer spot on the border of La Quinta and Indio just didn't work. read more

Excellence across the board. The food, service,& environment check all the boxes. Tien is usually our waiter and he provides top tier service with every visit. It's truly nice to have a perfect go to spot. Always fresh & delicious. And their playlist is fire too; nice mix. Love this place read more

Came to this restaurant based on multiple strong recommendations. The space is very clean and the décor is well done. Service overall was excellent--the front desk agent was friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in, and our server was professional and attentive throughout the meal. She did however set her serving tray on our table and brought us the wrong food twice. Speaking of the food, it was underwhelming and lacked flavor. For two adults and two kids, a $200 bill feels hard to justify given the quality or lack there of. This isn't Nobu at the Tennis Gardens. Do better. read more

Another disappointing Coachella Valley sushi spot. Servers are friendly, but the quality of the sushi is mediocre at best. It's a convenient location for us, but we'll have to stay with the drive down to El Paseo for either The Venue, or across to Musashi for quality fare. read more

Superb menu with all the right options. I had the 6 piece chef's nigiri plate with miso soup and 2 tempura shrimp. Fish was delicate and tasty. Others had the calamari (excellent with the jalepenos) and chicken katsu . Good friendly service too. read more

Had an amazing lunch at Coral Sushi Bar today! Chef Jason absolutely impressed with the freshness, creativity, and precision of every bite. The fish was pristine--especially the toro and the chef's special rolls--and the presentation was as beautiful as it was delicious. Their signature purple rice added a fun twist and incredible texture to each piece--light, nutty, and visually stunning. Our server, Tian, made the experience even better with friendly, attentive service and great recommendations that hit the mark every time. The pacing was perfect, and the relaxed, welcoming vibe made it easy to just sit back and enjoy. Overall, Coral Sushi Bar delivers true quality and care in every detail. 5 stars all the way--I'll definitely be back soon! read more

Amazing sushi! Fresh and creative!! Food. Service and ambience all 1st class!! We totally recommend this restaurant for all sushi lovers

Genuinely disappointed... I'm absolutely mind blown that they think 5 pieces of basic tuna sashimi and 5 pieces of salmon sashimi is worth $49?! Look at the picture below and tell me where you see 49 dollars worth of value? The tuna is basic 6/10 in taste and same with the salmon. None of it screams delicious. Hopefully ownership takes note and realizes this why they are never busy. read more

Service was perfect. I sat at the sushi bar and Ordered the Hamachi Kama collar which was cooked perfectly. The sashimi trio had quality sashimi. Very tasty. Great atmosphere as well. Miso soup was hot! read more

Good sushi and nice menu. Good service. Moderately priced. Not super fancy. Easy parking. Will be back. read more

Outstanding! We had the Hideaway, Road Runner and Coral Special rolls and the Kimchi Spicy Pork Belly Fried Rice (and plenty of other stuff too!). Food was exceptional, service was great, vibe was top notch. A must visit for anyone looking for amazing sushi anywhere in the desert. read more

The outdoor dining environment was Quiet, clean, and it felt like the beginning of a nice meal. The service was very slow. As if they were understaffed. But the restaurant was less than 30% occupied. We were searching for our server a couple of times. Food was clean, the yellowtail sashimi was delicious as was the Joy roll. The purple rice yellowtail jalapeño roll barely had any fish and the jalapeño overpowered the roll, leaving lots of room for any type of flavor profile . We're always seeking out our favorite sushi restaurant. Unfortunately we will not returned to corral service was extremely slow and Food lacked the flavor you'd expect. read more

I was quite impressed with this place. I enjoy sushi, so this was a great restaurant for me. My friends live in Palm Springs and they chose it. I don't think I would have found it on my own. We started with the edamame and vegetable tempura. Both were delicious. Then I had the spicy sashimi bowl (which is very difficult to say, surprisingly). I finally just pointed to it and she got it. It's a pretty good size portion, and we had the appetizers (because on Monday they were half off) so it was quite a filling meal. I don't drink but Mike had the sake, and he enjoyed it. That's about all of the review I can give of their alcohol. And we were too full to even look at a dessert menu, so maybe next time. read more

Love this place! So good every time we come, usually not too busy, so service is fast. There is a nice variety of rolls and they are all good. The employees are always so kind, and the restaurant is very nice and inviting. read more

Coral Sushi & Sake Bar - sushi rolls - Sushi Bars Near Me - Indio, California

Great Canopy location easy access and parking in the Citrus Center. Yelp Short Answer: YES for sure, only open a week working out a few kinks but still very good. Giving 4 star but had the 3 Star experience. Location: Excellent Buildout: Excellent, new and nice. Menu: lots to choose from sushi bar or table. Food prep: busy but trying their best but a little work to do here. Food Quality: pretty good but have to try more items to give full review. Waitstaff: learning, these are not seasoned sushi style servers but getting better with each table. Overall Value: Very expensive and not sure they are providing a good value compared to other options near by, but that will change and I will update. TIP: At the moment don't expect a full on sushi experience, hope to see them having huge success here. read more

The ambiance and service was good. I was disappointed by the charaishi bowl. Only two thin slices for each fish on top of a meager amount of rice. Looked nothing like the yelp photos. For $36 it was a major rip off. I've gotten this type of bowl many times before. Typically 3 pieces of each fish and thicker cuts. read more

Great food fabulous service server remembers what we order and Recommends other new items we may like may like. The Restaurant comfortable. read more

It was a good meal. My wife loves sushi so when she wants to go out that's where we go and she wanted to try this place. Very clean. Customer service was solid. My wife said her roll was very good. My chicken Katsu was very good..it's a little on the expensive side, especially the $15 for the beer and the four dollars extra for a little scoop of white rice that probably should come with the food (weird) Overall..I thought it was pretty dang good and I would recommend it. Very clean great decorations! Very good food. Here's some advice. Don't charge $4 for a small scoop of rice. Add 25 cents to each meal and serve rice and soup with it. Very odd. Hard for me to get over. I would go 3.5 overall but 4.3 if they didn't nickel and dime you for rice. Tacky. read more

Tried this place because of Yelp reviews. Guess I should've listened to the bad ones. We were very disappointed. Our server was nice, but it felt like she was in a rush to walk away whenever we asked a question or ordered something. She told us that some orders are only made with purple rice...no substituting white rice. Saw other orders come out with white rice. The food is fine, nothing special. read more

It's a bit too fancy for my taste. Beautiful restaurant but I didnt think there rolls were very flavorful. The Tuna was very soft and the Purple rice is an odd pairing with fish. It's sweet. The waiter was ok. He never refilled my water and that was all I had to drink. Rolls start at $12 and go up to $30 read more

So after 3 times of dining at this place, I think it's time I give them the shout out they deserve. Service every single time has been spot on. They are always on top of what you want or need. Orders also come out in a timely fashion. Staff is very informed on the menu. Apps Wings 10/10 sweet spicy savory (favorite) Tempura 8/10 some pieces are a little to thick and don't get cooked in the fryer but taste is great regardless Seaweed salad 10/10 Coral special roll 10/10 tried it with purple rice and without I personally preferred the regular rice (my favorite) Hide away roll (favorite)10/10 I've tried nearly every specialty role they have to offer. They are all very fresh and have a nice sweet and savory balance to them. I even want to say the freshest in the valley as I've tried the majority of places. The sushi portions are not too big where they don't fit in your mouth and not too small they are just right. I I also really like the decor and ambiance they have both seating or table seating . A little patio area with plenty of warmth in the winter. It's the perfect semi casual intimate place to grab a bite. Most seating is for groups of four. read more

Hands down the best sushi in the Coachella Valley! The restaurant itself is beautiful, with a welcoming atmosphere that makes the whole dining experience feel special. The staff was incredibly attentive, making sure everything was perfect from start to finish. A highlight of the night was when the chef personally came by our table--such a thoughtful touch that made us feel truly valued. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and artfully prepared.

I had high hopes for a new sushi find in La Quinta unfortunately it was far from positive. The decor was clean and pretty but the service and food were mediocre. To start, our server served us the wrong roll, telling us, as she set it down rather than fixing the problem. The rolls were extremely dry, tasteless, and very small, edamame was over cooked and soggy. We paid the over $200 bill still hungry and unsatisfied. I will not be trying this place again. read more

Great experience every time we go here. The wait for the food is worth it as the effort put into each dish is noted. We had a few types of nigiri, two rolls, and a main dish. read more

A Bay Area caliber top Sushi place. The sushi is fresh, large size, beautifully presented. Nothing like it in this area. Sake is great. Ambiance and decor is also top level. Strongly suggest this location read more

Talk about a hidden gem in the Coachella Valley. The food was absolutely phenomenal. It came out piping hot, and all the flavors were there. The service was also well above average. This is a great date spot for all in the valley. I'm just frustrated. I didn't find it sooner. This place is a must go. read more

Went for Happy Hour to check the restaurant out. Arrived just before 4. Not many in the restaurant. Friendly greeting. Sat outside. After about 5 minutes, someone came out and brought us water. Had to ask for menus. Took about another 10 minutes before our server came to take our order. Ordered a few items off the HH menu. After ordering, my wife decided she wanted to add one more item. Mentioned this to our server and another person who stopped by the table - Never saw the other item during our entire meal. Thought th prices seemed reasonable for HH, assuming we would still receive a relatively good sized portion. However, when our items arrived (minus the extra item we ordered), we received 2 pieces of sushi, one piece of tempura, and one item never showed up. For $10, the tempura was a joke - a wrap of some sort around a few tiny pieces of shrimp and some type of vegetable - not enough for even one person really... Rather shocking experience considering there were only a few at the restaurant - maybe 6 or 7 tables only with people. Food, so-so, prices steep for what we got at HH. Miso soup $6.50 at HH? Won't be back. read more

So, in my past experiences with sushi restaurants it hasn't been the best with reviews like in a range of 1-3 stars. My older sister wanted to go here because she said it had a 4.8 stars so we had kind of high standards for this restaurant. When we got here it looked like everyone was pretty happy with their meals so I got a good vibe from this place at first. When we sat down our waiter was super nice. She served us right away but my dad got dirty chopsticks and had to ask for new ones. We ordered some tempura and the prices on everything were very high. Once we got our appetizer, almost all of it was really soggy and undercooked. And especially for 18 dollars it was a real let down. One thing I also noticed was that there were chipped pieces of glass inside the tempura sauce. A real hazard. As I did have high hopes for this restaurant it didn't start out as good as I would've liked it to be. We waited a while for our food and when it came, the sushi was not good. I believe that you should charge less for not really high quality food because everything was really pricey and not good. After we ate and told the waitress about our time she said she was sorry and that she wished our time could've been better. I wish it could've been too. I'm sorry but this was a real waste of money and not as pleasing as we would've liked. I hope anyone else who does go can have a better time than me and my family did. Thank you to the staff though. read more

This was our first time visiting Coral Sushi and won't be our last. Service and atmosphere were great! They let us try the cucumber salad which was fresh and yummy (I'd order it next time). We decided on the Coachella Roll and the Road Runner Roll, both were very tasty. If you like a lot of sauce I would ask for extra when ordering My 6 year old with picky taste got the Teriyaki chicken with fried rice and was happy with his selection. We had enough for him to take home for a late snack which was nice. Overall very nice dinner and we are excited to explore their new happy hour menu. Oh I almost forgot the spicy edamame!! Don't forget to get that!! Best way to start the meal read more

This is very unfortunate. We really enjoyed our first visit. This time around, we walked in and were turned away and told we had to make a reservation; even though there were 8-9 open tables. Which gave me an idea. I walked outside and made a reservation on OpenTable in 15 minutes time. When I went back in to share my newly made "reservation" I was told we would have to wait 40 minutes. Something is broken, going to think twice next time. Too bad. read more

Fresh and unique rolls with an authentic revival. Lots of starter choices and entree options. They have early bird pricing on a big portion of their menu.

We tried to go to Cork & Fork for dinner and they turned us away at 8:01pm because their last seating was at 8pm - so dumb. Their loss! We walked over to Coral Sushi and were a bit nervous because we were vegan. Our server was so helpful and instead of saying "I don't know" when asked what vegan options they had she said "I'm not sure but this is good, I'll learn which options there are" - a response showing their staff really care about their customers! We ended up ordering the veggie roll and the veggie tempura. We didn't have to modify the roll but we did have to get another sauce for the tempura - ponzu - which was perfectly fine with us. Thanks to our server (whose name we have forgotten) for being so helpful! We do appreciate it. Also, kudos to the person who answered the phone to told us they could accommodate when we had called earlier in the day. She originally said their miso soup was vegan and I got a call back from her apologizing that it was not vegan. Another plus for their staff. Also, the restaurant is beautiful and impeccably clean. read more
