I have found my favorites and have them most often, but I like to venture into new rolls and I'm never disappointed. The staff is always welcome, friendly and provide amazing service. During the pandemic we ate here once a week to keep supporting local businesses and they knew me by name. This is a hidden gem If you go for a birthday they have flashing neon lights and crazy music that plays that make you feel emboldened and special all at once. Always very clean with multiple tvs that don't mess with the ambience because they keep the volume down.

You could also sit at the sushi bar, if you prefer. And there are a variety of tvs. When we went, it was featuring the world cup; no audio and some tvs had captions. Music was playing at a good level. Menu features lots of options. Some of us were craving sushi and the other half had bowls (beef bulgogi, spicy pork bowl, orange chicken). Our meals were served around the same time and waiters regularly checked on our refills and if we needed anything. At one point, music turned loud and lights flashed, to celebrate someone's bday so something to be aware of that they do. Overall, our dining experience was satisfying. I was a big fan of the salmon carpaccio and the super sexy bowl. The fish tasted fresh and portions are large so you get your moneys worth. My companion did mention that their bulgogi had more onion than meat which was visibly notable. Definitely aim to visit again and will recommend this spot to others.

After reading some of the reviews my girlfriend and I were slightly hesitant to go for the first…read moretime but decided to give it a try and a few things to note. We went on a Saturday at 6pm without joining the waitlist as yelp said we didn't need to. Our experience vs recent yelp reviews was overall pretty damn positive. The only thing that is true that every other review mentions is yes they add auto gratuity so when you get your check the option is there to still add a tip which if you don't pay attention can lead to you giving a 25%+ tip without realizing it. The service we had was fast, I still don't know who our server was because about 6 different people kept asking us if we needed anything. Our tablet worked fine and we were able to order everything from it without having it malfunctioning or not working as some others have stated. One odd thing to mention is the soda cup is about 2x as big as the water cup. The sushi itself tasted good, however my girlfriend and I try to get our moneys worth so we normally only pick nigiri and the standard apps, and avoid any kind of rolls. Our take is on the carpaccio, seared salmon, tuna, and escolar, and fresh water eel. All the nigiri we had weren't "fishy" or tasted not fresh or whatever some of the other reviews mentioned but again we didn't have any of the items other people have complained about. So if you're looking for an AYCE sushi place and are tryna get your moneys worth I'd say it's a good place to go.

Well, that all came to an end today when we decided to visit our old friend and she acted like she didn't even know us. We purchased 3 of our favorite rolls off our list but none of them tasted the same, they were bland at best and the best was no better than 'just okay'. Even one of our favorites, the Tokyo roll, was a big disappointment. I'd like to say that I was surprised, but I really wasn't. I started to see the writing on the wall last year but like a relationship that is past its prime, you get comfy and hope against hope that things will change but you know you're just fooling yourself. This evening, I chose to take a moment and look around remembering better times and memories made, I felt like Norm from Cheers on their final day. So, as I took my final lap I dabbed the "allergies" from my eyes, left my doggy bag on the table, turned and walked away. We're going to miss you, Big Oak. It was good while it lasted.

I was able to try all the no rice rolls and they were all fantastic. One dish that stood out to me was the seared nigiri tuna. I normally don't like tuna but this one had perfect texture and flavor. They have indoor and outdoor seating. And they have tvs for entertainment. They also have bar seating. There is a service charge of 15% that automatically goes to your check. Dinner for 2 was $95 with gratuity and with no alcohol ordered. Over all Not bad, I'll be back.

I'm currently pregnant and before I enjoyed going out for sushi at our normal location south of the 210. However, I prefer to stay as local as possible nowadays and try to find places that I can enjoy. I am obsessed with the "Golden California" rolls, and if you don't know what that is, it is a California roll that is fried in tempura batter. I can't always find a place with that style roll and when we happened upon this place our very first time, I saw that they offered the roll. Well, let's fast forward to present, and our order is usually always the same. Husband and I share a Golden California roll, a ramen we feel like having spicy, some mixed tempura with shrimp and then he will choose a roll that's more on the raw fish side. I actually changed it up our last visit l because I did not realize they had a Spicy Golden California, and that roll was very good. I'd definitely get that one again when we are on a sushi run. My sister and my nephew are also sushi people, and they have never been to this spot. I took some sushi to go, and they actually enjoyed it. They too are used to the other spot we frequent, but this is perfect for just my husband and I as we do t consume too much to warrant a visit to the spot we usually go to. If you're in the area, looking for a sushi spot, I'd recommend it. I know they offer other items, we just haven't decided to try anything other than our usual mix.

My only gripe was the the sauce container to pour you sauce in was a little dirty and i had to clean it myself... kinda grossed me out tbh Now on to the food the sushi was pretty yummy. The texture of the salmon was melt in you mouth. I totally forgot the names of the items I got but the salmon rolled crab meat was my favorite along with the Salmon belly. the sushi roll i got was recommended by our waitress it was good although I wished that they had used a little less i'm assuming sesame oil in the sauce because the flavor of peanut was a bit overwhelming and overshadowed the flavor from the Salmon and Tuna :/ . Overall I would recommend trying, you might meet some cool people. That was honestly the highlight of my experience. The sushi was good too. I would try them again. I would say 3.8/5 stars

Our waiter was amazing very attentive and on top of everything. The food came out in stages, which was actually great because it gave us time to enjoy one roll before the next arrived and kept the table from feeling crowded. The ambiance was perfect as well. This is definitely a new favorite!

Very disappointing experience today…read more This was actually our second chance for this restaurant. We used to enjoy the food, but previous visits were plagued by incorrect orders because staff repeatedly chose not to write anything down. Today, my husband found a hair fried into the batter of his popcorn lobster roll. It was wrapped around the piece of "lobster," making it clear the hair was there during preparation--not something that fell onto the food afterward. It also raises concerns about basic food safety practices, including whether proper hair restraints were being used by whoever prepared the meal. He quietly brought it to the staff's attention, and they simply took the plate away. No apology. No follow-up. To make matters worse, we were still charged for the contaminated roll. We mentioned it again when paying and, again, received no apology and no offer to remove the charge. Mistakes can happen. What shouldn't happen is dismissing a legitimate food safety concern and charging customers for contaminated food without so much as an apology.

Drinks weren't consistent the second round, and the food came out one at a time with about a 45-minute wait for everyone to be served. By then, most of us were done eating. We also had to keep asking for water, and my molcajete chicken was not good at all (though the carne asada and sausage were tasty). Sushi and dragon roll were delicious. It seemed like they may have only had one cook, which affected timing. Our waitress was kind, but overall the service and experience just didn't match our first visit. Sadly, I may not return.

Woah , sushi was super delicious!…read more We grabbed the eel sushi, the baked lobster and I forgot the name but it's a ceviche sushi in aguachile. This place is off the chains! Everything was amazing. Probably, best sushi place in the riverside area. The service was excellent. The waitress was so kind and friendly. She took the experience to the next level. The crazy thing is that is also a Mexican restaurant because I saw in the menu a bunch of Mexican dishes. This place is a 10/10.

They have such a large variety, which is hard to find at sushi restaurants. So far, my favorite has been the Magoto roll which has mango, sweet potato tempura, and avocado. I also really enjoy the tomago. They have a really good happy hour with a great selection of rolls at better prices, plus appetizers. It's definitely worth checking out! I highly recommend coming here with a group of friends. They have plenty of seating, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. I'll definitely be coming back again!

First Visit Experience…read more My wife and I tried Sushi R 91 in Riverside for the first time, and overall it was a good experience with a few areas that could be improved. I ordered the beef ramen, and the flavor was great. The beef tasted really good, and the broth had nice depth. I do wish they offered more condiments on the table so you can adjust the broth to your liking--spicy, savory, etc. My food took a little while to come out, but it ended up being worth the wait. The price was also a big plus: $13.99 for a bowl of ramen, a sushi roll, and a drink is a great deal. My wife ordered two rolls--the Salmon on Fire and the Caterpillar Roll. Both were tasty and comparable to what we've had at other sushi spots. We also tried the gyozas, which were average. Customer service could use some improvement. Our waitress wasn't rude, but she seemed rushed and tried to take our order almost immediately after we sat down. Since it was our first time, we needed a moment to look over the menu. Overall, the food and value were solid, but the service and small details could be better. I'd rate Sushi R 91 a 3.5 out of 5.
