So I saw this place on Yelp and decided to give it a try. The prices weren't too bad so I figured I'd give it a try. I ordered the shrimp shumai, fried lobster rangoon, a California roll, and a Shrimp Tempera roll. The shrimp shumai are steamed and don't really have a taste. The lobster rangoon barely has any meat, it's about 95% cream cheese, and taste like it was fried in old oil. The California roll and shrimp tempera roll were also alright. I feel like because of the old oil aftertaste, I couldn't really taste the flavors of the sushi. If I do try this place again, I'd skip on the appetizers and just eat the sushi. read more

This is my second time eating here & i absolutely enjoyed it. I ordered the volcano roll(special roll), which had eight pieces of fried rolls filled with/ tuna, salmon, & crabmeat. It's drizzled on top w/ spicy mayo, too. The rolls & the salad stayed crunchy, which i liked, & they paired well together. The seaweed salad is always my favorite dish. read more

So - if there is such a category as Sushi Dive Bar, this place is it. Tiny little shop, which only has a few tables. It's clearly designed more for take-away. You order at the counter, with the entire staff behind the wall. They make your order, and then put it in a box that you open and take it out. Completely separated from the customer - probably a Covid change that has stuck? Not sure. But you put the order in and they make it immediately for you. Anyway, wasn't quite what I was expecting thinking I was going to eat a meal out. But I decided to give it a shot anyway. I ordered the gyoza and two sushi rolls - one sweet potato tempura and one shrimp tempura with cream cheese and salmon. In terms of flavor, the gyoza was pretty solid - the sauce in particular was good. The sushi pieces were VERY large - the sweet potato was great when it was still warm. The salmon one would have benefited from a veggie - maybe some avocado - but the salmon was fresh. The rice consistency was a bit more starchy and not as flavorful as other places, and the wasabi was pretty weak. I ended up with leftovers that I ate for lunch today - the salmon held up great, but the sweet potato wasn't as good cold. Overall, I'd put this at a 3 1/2 - convenience is nice, the flavor and taste is great for a more fast-food kind of experience - just not a sit down, nice meal kind of joint. read more

It was okay. I ordered the hibachi steak and shrimp to go plus a side vegetable dumplings and a shrimp tempura roll. The sushi was good. I wasn't a big fan of the vegetable dumplings but the hibachi hit with that yum yum sauce. Honestly I can't complain. It wasn't anything spectacular but I was would get it again if I had too read more

The food was so good that I forgot to take a picture. Nonetheless, I called in a to-go order for a shrimp and chicken hibachi with steamed rice, a shrimp, steak and chicken hibachi with steamed rice, a spicy salmon roll, and a seaweed salad. Both of the hibachi meals came with miso soup. Every single item was delicious! I managed to remember to get a picture of the seaweed salad and the sushi roll but we totally forgot to take picture of our hibachi. Overall, food is amazing. The staff was attentive, and my order was ready on time. The establishment was clean and there were a few inside tables to dine in if needed. read more

I decided to try something new since the prices looked good but I'm not sure I would return. I placed an order for pickup on 6/12/24. The pickup time was 7:48. I arrived at 7:45 and was told it would be a few minutes. The food was not ready until 8:05pm, which is a decent wait for me considering I ordered almost 30 minutes before I arrived. My other concern was that the place was hot. Like the air condition was out? In my opinion, that's not a great look for somewhere serving raw fish. It made me skeptical from the jump. However, I did get my food and took it home. Review of food will be in the next paragraph. I got a special roll with real crab, some kani salad and decided to take the salmon roll from my husbands box dinner combo. He got the steak hibachi. My food was 4/10. The salmon was light pink in color and had a slightly fishy taste but the special roll brought me the most concern. The crab on top, while real, had a very acidic smell to it. It caught me off guard and I scraped it off to ensure I wouldn't get sick. My kani salad was My husband ate the steak from his box, he said the shrimp in the Gyoza smelled bad so that went in the trash. After he ate the steak, he threw our the rest and we hit up McDonald's. This wasn't the most expensive sushi (40 overall) and I understand that but I've had better for cheaper. I would have felt safer ordering from Kroger. I would not visit here again and feel that the ac getting fixed needs to be a priority, along with following estimated pick up times. Three people were waiting along with me so that tells me that they were behind. I try to be understanding but this missed too many marks for me to not say something. Overall I was very disappointed. read more

Based on delivery experience: This place really gets you the most bang for your buck. With that said, it's not the most generous in serving sizes of all the sushi joints I frequent. The salad was good, dressing was okay. Miso soup was good as was the shumai. Sashimi dinner deluxe dish - felt cheated on quite a bit, crab sticks were included in the sashimi count... I've never been served imitation crab as sashimi before. Salmon maki probably would have tasted great had the hot food not been sitting on top of it and underneath in the delivery vehicle, cooking the maki half way and making it hot and chewy. Be sure to ask them to separate the hot and cold stuff! Leave tip for this on arrival and check the food. Also - get the sushi and sashimi combo - you won't get imitation crab in place of sashimi.... Still, would definitely order again; pocket and bank account friendly. 3.5 rounded up. 010/2020 read more

This is a nice little pick up spot. Nothing fancy but the food is decent and the service is quick.

I ordered over the phone tonight and picked up the food because I was craving hibachi style. I ordered hibachi chicken and shrimp with white rice and a house salad with ginger dressing. UPDATE: The salad was good with ginger dressing. It was fresh and a great portion. Fast forward, I get home and my meal is pretty tasty. I really didn't like the chicken. It had a weird taste and it was flat chicken, so it wasn't like chicken breast that I assumed it would be. The shrimp was the best part and the broccoli...which I got 3 broccoli pieces in my food. All of this came to a total of $16. I thought it was overpriced for what I paid. I may come back to try the sushi. read more

I ordered from door dash . I had the chicken and steak hibachi and the shrimp tempura!! Both was bland and the sushi was horrible !! I had to throw it all in the trash !! So disappointed!!! I don't know how they have any good reviews if their food was anything like mine!! Someone called a sushi house should have decent sushi!!! Very disappointed!!! read more

Yes, I got sushi two days in a row this week. I'm grown! I can do what I want! Well, sometimes you can go overboard and sometimes it's best to leave well enough alone. I didn't enjoy the food from Japan Sushi House but it wasn't the worst sushi in the world. My rice was falling apart from the roll itself and my dumplings were a little too crisp. The dumpling itself was too hard to eat on some pieces. Maybe it was a bad day, because overall it wasn't terrible but it wasn't a good order. read more

Okay. First and foremost, soy sauce is made from Water, Soybeans, Wheat, and Salt. Not the Kari-Out packets, which aren't even soy sauce. These packets are the Dane Cook of condiments, and I have to admit I'm a little pissed off that *Japan* Sushi House is using such a garbage product (basically a westerner invented what he thought was Soy Sauce and sold it en masse). That said, if I'm intended to put this on sushi of all things, that's like asking someone to put ketchup on steak. Have some integrity in your product. That stuff is gross. read more

I actually do not recommend this place. Why? It's because they give you the "regular" the "fake" soy sauce packets that you would get at any take out Chinese Restaurants. If you are a sushi lover you would and should know that sushi soy sauce is different from the regular type. It wouldn't taste right with regular and cheap fake sauce. Also, I had ordered the sashimi... they are thinly sliced so I suppose it's why they seem to be a little on the inexpensive side. It's how they would fool you to think they are so affordable but really they tricked you with their amount/sizes. And if you must know, I don't think they are as fresh either. Good luck on your order if you want to try them out at least once like I did. read more

I eat sushi all the time, in all areas across the southeast, I would have to say this is the worst sushi I have ever had. Extremely fishy ( smell and taste) I had tuna lovers roll and was terrible. Save your money and go somewhere else read more

I have to say when I looked at the menu I had quite high expectations as a fellow Asian, and quite frankly my expectations were met! I Was craving some good fried rice. And I have so say I'm impressed. I ordered the Grilled Vegetables w fried rice Hibachi style. The rice was perfectly seasoned, not too oily, I liked the variety of vegetables (broccoli, carrot, onions, zucchini). The dish had a very nice smokiness to it from the grill, full of flavour. And not stingy on the rice of veggies which is great. It was a very good portion for the price! Also came with a miso soup, which I enjoyed, nice ration of tofu and seaweed to soup, and not too salty as well which I appreciate. I also ordered a side of yum yum sauce which paired really well with the rice and vegetables. Overall very pleased with this meal, will order again, hope to have the same experience! read more

Definitely my go-to when I don't feel like cooking or when we have guests over. We have been ordering from this establishment for about three years now. The food is always hot and fresh when I receive my order. I always order the sweet potato roll, shrimp tempura roll and steak hibachi for my husband. The food is prepared rather quickly and I never have to wait when I pick up. We will continue to support this small business. read more

So I ordered sushi from here for lunch today. I got the lunch special with 2 sushi rolls, soup & salad. With this I got a spicy tuna roll & spicy crab roll. I also added a dynamite roll. You get a lot for the price, however the sushi was not that great. My spicy tuna & crab rolls had more rice than anything else & that was all I could taste. Also the tuna & crab did not taste very fresh. The best part of the meal were the dynamite rolls & the soup. read more

After leaving NY I was skeptical about finding a sushi spot as good as the one back in Brooklyn. I stumbled across Japan Sushi House and was pleasantly surprised!

Really good sushi and service. The restaurant inside were simple but good, I felt like I went back home.

OMG . Mind Blowingly DELICIOUS! My new favorite place. Thank you for this astonishingly delectable meal. Sushi was especially SPECTACULAR

I live quite close, thus eat here frequently. I have yet to have a bad meal. My wife has food allergies and they ALWAYS get it right. I can't say that about many places. Tried the Udon noodles for the first time today, it was delicious. The sushi is very fresh and well made. I would recommend this place to anyone. As far as authenticity, I have no idea, but the food is delicious. read more

I had the steak, scallop and shrimp hibachi to go. It was my first time ordering from here. It was quite delicious. The meats were all well seasoned and it even came with the miso soup. That was my first time getting the miso soup included, when I got it to go. One of the better hibachi places I have had. read more

I ordered a beef teriyaki bento box for lunch. The beef was tough as shoe leather - I was extremely disappointed. Also , it did not taste like the sweet Teriyaki flavor that I know (maybe they're super authentic and I just can't appreciate it?) Anyhow - tough meat is unacceptable to me so I gave them a 3. The California roll that comes with the bento box was falling apart and made sloppily. The only thing that I loved were the little dumpling things called shumai ... those were delicious. I would try them one more time before writing them off altogether. Maybe their chicken is better than the tough beef I had. read more

This place is on point. Craft made Japanese Sushi that is fresh and served fast. It's made fresh right before your eyes The staff is great and the restaurant is clean. I love that it is in driving distance of my house. Oh and the price is right! You may question the portion sizes but I think it's reasonable. Give this place a try. It is a hidden gem in our area. read more

Great sushi and bento box. I love that it is close to my home and whenever I get that overwhelming feeling for sushi or teriyaki I can just go around the block and get me their lunch special (Bento box) or just a few sushi rolls to cover me over till the next sushi attack. Food is very delish. It is in the Hampton Woods Plaza so you can easily miss it if you are on Big Bethel Road. If you are in the area go check it out. You will not be disappointed. read more

I've ordered delivery here at least 4x now and they have come in a timely manner and the food is hot and it's good!! All of their sushi is delicious! It doesn't taste like commercial sushi if that makes sense. The last time I ordered they gave me a small sushi order on the house! I will keep ordering here when I'm lazy and don't want to cook for my family. Thank you!! read more

I only ordered from here because they deliver. The food wasn't the best. I'd give it one star. I got the spicy crab roll and it was decent but not amazing. The AK roll was really gooey and slimey. I didn't like it at all. I also got the volcano roll it was also really gooey with way to much sauce. I won't be back. read more

Thier food is really good they are just soo annoying when it comes to the meats. I say only onions, they pack a bunch of onions at the bottom and put only a thin layer of meat on top. I no veggies and they put a shit ton of rice and a little section of meat. that's why it just 4 read more

Japan Sushi House is similar to sushi you would get at a grocery store. Fair prices, basic rolls, and a-okay. I would come back here for a quick bite to eat or a quick to-go meal. For nicer rolls or sit-down dinners I would go to Hayashi in Newport News since it is more upscale. My co-worker said that he wouldn't return and the food wasn't that good, but in my opinion I thought nothing was bad. The atmosphere was spacious and plenty of room for large parties or families. Tip: Japan Sushi House is to the right of Lion Supermarket & you can order online. Tip 2: AMEX is not on their preferred credit card list/they will not accept it. read more

Placed the order through yelp and it was ready 15 minutes later. Picked it up, Got the chicken soba and a shrimp soba. It was bomb. Would eat here again for sure. read more

Love love love this place! Love the raw and cooked sushi. Great quality and amazing price. I prefer to go here over anywhere in Hampton!

I love this place because it's close to home and also does delivery. The staff is nice and always friendly. I've eaten sushi from all over and I would say theirs is average. As far as local, it's way better than Sushi King or grocery store sushi but not quite as good as Yama Roll House, Musasi or Saisaki. Overall 4/5 stars. read more

I had Japan Sushi for the first time on Sunday it's set up like a take-out place but you can sit. I ordered avocado sushi and vegetables with white white rice! The vegetables were seasoned and good (I've experienced places a little better) BUT it definitely wasn't nasty!!! The avocado sushi was yummy...and it comes on this cute little tray. The employees gave me tons of soy sauce without asking and a soup. The prices aren't bad at all! The employees were super nice and friendly! I'll definitely be visiting again! read more

So this place is just okay for me. I would give it 2.5 stars actually. It is "okay" as in if you are craving Japanese food or sushi in particular, you could stop by this takeout place for a fix. It isn't the greatest like out of this world kind of sushi. But it wasn't bad either. Just very standard. One thing that bummed me out was how hot that little place was. There was no AC, let alone moving air in that place. I thought I was suffocating just standing at the register. And it was super dark in there. It wasn't exactly an ideal place to actually sit and enjoy your meal. read more

If I could give 0 stars, I would. Miso soup tasted like they just added water to one and split it between 5 bowls. Forgot our seaweed salad, and they knew about it and sent it anyway. We never received our drinks that we ordered. When we called back to tell them, they had an attitude and told us that they "only forgot our seaweed salad, not our drinks" meaning they knew that they forgot it and didn't care. Awful. Terrible service. I will never order from here again. ALSO, I got a tiny ball of wasabi for 4 sushi rolls. Pathetic. read more

Placed an order for delivery waited almost an hour and a half and still no food when we tried calling the store there was no answer. Maybe if we had received something they might have gotten better than 1 star if I could they would get zero. I do not recommend their delivery. read more

I go here all the time. Only place to get quick to go online order sushi. I deff recommend

This place is amazing. Their delivery is fast and food is great. I definitely recommend this sushi restaurant if you are in Hampton. I have not been in there yet but it will be the next sushi restaurant I go and dine at. This place gets 5 stars from me for sure! read more

Nice local spot and close to everything (home). Great selection and service was exceptional

There are not many good sushi places in Hampton, in my opinion, so I was scrolling through Google just looking for a new place to pick up from. I called Japan Sushi House and was excited when they offered delivery as an option. My estimated delivery time was 40 minutes and it got here in about an hour. The driver was nice and apologetic, and explained that he had to take four other deliveries along with mine. As a former delivery driver I totally understand, and after working all day I was just happy to not go anywhere. I got a ridiculous amount of food for a pretty reasonable price, I would say the sushi was on the same level as that of farm fresh or buffet sushi. I ordered the spicy maki combo, a crab roll, a salmon roll and received miso soup and salad with my order, tons of soy sauce, wasabi and chopsticks. The salmon roll was my favorite. I got my sushi fix, didn't have to go anywhere, and didn't pay an arm and leg so I will definitely be ordering again. My kids love the crab rolls so this will be a nice change up from ordering pizza or Chinese. read more
