I've had sushi from a lot of places and nothing comes close to Oceano. Best sushi ever and friendly staff. I recommend the Seattle roll and tempura roll. read more

Highlights: really liked the pecan on the saguaro roll. Different and new. That's it. I can't recommend this place. Salmon was fishy. Rice was al dente. Pink lady roll was bland, fish on top fishy. We were the only people in there and the food still took a while. Attention to detail on the walls and interior look is poor. Needs some work. Looking back at the reviews, it loos like maybe management changed? Just a complete drop off on reviews, but still coasting at above 4 from a huge base of old reviews. Very disappointing. read more

Very similar review here....we were the only table in the restaurant and it took 25 minutes for the gyoza, another 10 minutes for the kids chicken stripes. The lemonade and glass of wine followed after that. After another 20 minutes our poke was not at the table nor was the sushi we had ordered at the beginning of this train wreck. We waited while our daughter finished her chicken stripes. I asked the server to cancel the remaining items as it was time to move on. Not sure what the hype has been of this establishment, but it has definitely faded. read more

Oceano certainly has fun presentations with their elaborate sushi boats and beautiful interior. Staff were friendly. But the food and service were only ok, and here's why: * avocado looked old and mushy * allergy swaps were only sometimes adhered to (example: let the server know we had a gluten-free need and requested no krab on a roll -- still came with krab -- and no guidance on other selections) * some rolls were quite dry and bland * the menu is very... midwestern. A roll with cream cheese, fine. Half the menu with cream cheese? Ew. * menu lacked creativity * few good veg options Overall I'd take Momo any day of the week (except Tuesdays, which is when they're closed and how we ended up at Oceano) read more

Ambiance 2 stars, it would have been higher had they not been blasting "office chill 2025" overhead. Clean and nicely furnished. Service 3 stars, the hostess/waitress was very nice, but the food was sooooo slow, even though we were the only ones there. Food 2 stars, bland and poorly paired. read more

I reallllly wanted to like this place as I had heard great things and it's close. Hoping it was just an off night, but honestly I don't think I will be able to order fish from here again. The good first: service and ambiance get 5 stars. Everyone was super friendly, the restaurant is nicely decorated and clean. Unfortunately, the fish sushi was REALLY bad. Like, take one bite and throw it straight in the trash bad. My kiddo had vegetarian sushi and said it was tasty, so maybe I will give their veggie options a try. But their fish was truly awful. Tasted rotten/bad. I have never had sushi taste so horrible before. I feel awful leaving this review because the owners seem truly lovely, but I felt like it needs to be said because the food here in my experience is not anywhere close to deserving of the rating the restaurant carries. Hoping I just got a bad batch and their QC improves, but the fish they served me (which was pretty pricey for a neighborhood restaurant) was borderline dangerous. Ugh. read more

In short Gorgeous inside, service is very charming and attentive, and they make the most of every detail with the food. In long Deceptively bland location just north of Thrasher's Corner. Kind of a heap of strip malls for a couple blocks in every direction (and the same thing happens again a mile north, with even more shopping). Inside, though, you settle into a quiet, welcoming, immaculate setting. The hostess today was wonderfully friendly and focused; she was pulling double duty as a busser and server between lunch and dinner rushes. She sat me right away. The floors are polished concrete, which can be a bit slick with wet shoes, but looks nice and is perfectly clean. Nice dark wood walls and furniture, with black curtains hanging here and there to separate spaces, absorb noise, and settle the vibe. There are a few cooked options, including teriyaki and roasted/grilled finfish. Lots of nice options for the kids. The drinks list spends more time on beer and wine than it does on sake, but the sake I got was lovely. They put in a small decanter with room for ice cubes, nicely separated from the sake so it gets cold without getting watered down. Dig it! It's like a tiny bong your grandma would have thought was pretty. Seaweed salad Gorgeous presentation with extra lettuce building up the plate so it's ready for prime time. Cheap and easy way to make a very-common appetizer seem like it has some panache to it. Miso soup A bit more tart than I'm used to, possibly from the wide-leaf seaweed they added. I gobbled up every drop for sure. Sashimi I got the 12-piece and they really timed it to when I was done with soup and salad. Beautifully presented with cukes, shredded daikon, little cucumber cups for ginger and wasabi, and other vegetable flourishes around the plate. Just spectacular visually. The fish itself was wonderfully soft and buttery. Next time I think I'll say no superwhite; that's one of the very few things I avoid at sushi places, but it was tasty this one time and it's certainly something lots of people love, so it makes sense to include it if you don't say anything. Overall there's not a single other thing I'd change about this place, except maybe to move it closer to my house. read more

Oceano Sushi - Dig the chilled sake presentation here - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bothell, Washington

When we arrived, the place was pretty empty. It was clean and had a definite Japanese vibe. We ordered the 12 piece Sashimi which came with salad/soup & the Bento Box with shrimp and vegetable tempura and beef teriyaki. It came with Gyoza, rice, salad & soup. The prices were good for the portions. However, my husband graded his Sashimi as a 3.5. I thought there was too much teriyaki sauce in the beef and it was too sweet for me. The salad also had too much dressing. The tempura was very crispy and the pieces were large and the Gyoza was very good. The service, once ordered, was pretty fast. The waitress was efficient, but did not smile and really wasn't welcoming. There are lots of Sushi/Sashimi Japanese restaurants so we will try others before coming back . read more

Good service, very nice restaurant, my wife especially liked the music. The sushi was good. Would recommend

Very good sushi. No frills, just good rolls. Service is always friendly. Cute place. The menu is pretty big. Lots of choices including vegan rolls. read more

From start to finish this sushi restaurant is AMAZING! The atmosphere is romantic, fun, beautiful and the music is perfect! The service was top notch! Staff was kind, friendly, engaging, and checking on us just the right amount. The sushi was absolutely mouth watering delicious! I absolutely reccomend this wonderful place! read more

Oceano Sushi - Sushi boat - pure heaven! This is the Queen Anne roll, Dragon roll and Vela... (spell?!) roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bothell, Washington

Genuinely horrible management and staff. So much so would never return. Good mediocre at best. read more

We used to go here, and the food was good, even though it was expensive. Around 30$ a person. However, we went here and it was beyond frustrating. They changed the menu and food. The menu lacked the combos they used to have, which were good for reducing price. The entrees were all mid. For the sushi, the cucumbers on the side were rotten, the imitation crab was soggy and smelled weird, and the sushi wasn't out together well. The service was fine, and the restaurant itself has a pretty good vibe. Wait time was around 29 minutes for bad food. read more

The presentation was beautiful. Unfortunately the food wasn't very flavorful, even the spicy mayo was bland. I ordered the spicy tuna roll and rainbow roll. They weren't bad, it just wasn't the best. The service was ok. It was hard to get her attention as she had quite a few tables and only herself to serve them. I have worked in the service industry for over a decade, it's perfectly ok that it wasn't the fastest service. I hope they're able to hire some help soon so they don't have to stretch themselves so thin. I wish this business well, but I will not be back. read more

The worst service. Our order was taken after 20 minutes of sitting down. We tried patiently to wait for our food for 45 minutes and left. Do not waste your time. read more

I would probably not come back. The service was great but sushi was just ok/ not super fresh (they do have great presentation though) and the shrimp tempura udon was too salty and 'gingery' (too much ginger) :( read more

If you're looking for a review to determine whether to come here or not- read this one. I would not come here again. Starting off when we first came in there was absolutely NO one in the restaurant besides 3-4 staff members. The decor and ambience of this place was so out dated and old. The place was ok clean, but looked chaotic, unorganized, papers all over sushi bar. I felt just uncomfortable even sitting in there, idk the whole vibe was off. We thought maybe it was just a one time thing that no one was in there but after reading some reviews seems like there are often times where people enter and there's no one there. We thought the inside is crappy looking but maybe the food is gonna be phenomenal, unfortunately the food didn't wow us either. The sushi did not taste fresh, even the rice itself wasn't my fave. The sushi was a 4 out of 10. We got 3 different rolls, the Pink Lady, Macha Macho & Queen Anne. The presentation was nice though. Took a long time for the food to come out. I also asked for a high chair and it took a few minutes to get it & i could see the waitress right by the high chairs. The waitress was friendly, but again nothing like wow amazing service. Again keep in mind we were the ONLY customers. I honestly don't know how this place is still in business. My husband and i joked it's a money laundering front since the casino is right there, which would honestly make a lot more sense. To anyone who reviewed this sushi as good, clearly has not had good sushi. Surprised the ratings are as high as they are. read more

Ordered a few rolls, sunomo salad, kimbap, and miso soup to go. The sushi was fine, but similar to what you would find at a grocery store. We liked the miso soup and cucumber salad. Probably would choose another place for sushi next time. read more

What a gem! Stopped by for a quick bite after a long day and was pleasantly greeted with friendly servers, a comfortable atmosphere and delicious food. The chicken udon soup was so full of veggies and the broth was delicious. Next time I'll omit the udon noodles and enjoy a chicken veggie soup read more

Came in on a Friday night an hour before closing and waited 15 minutes to order. I had to go ask the waiter if we could order then the food took another 35 minutes to come out. No one is in a hurry here. The eel was so fishy that we couldn't eat it and we found a hair in our ginger. We decided to not even bother complaining since none of the employees seemed to care. Worst sushi we've ever had read more

Quirky restaurant decor but the sushi was fantastic, especially the rolls. The service was on the slower side but friendly. They close at 8p and they were certainly looking at their watches when I ordered another carafe of sake. read more

I was craving sushi recently and ordered take out form here, and based on the reviews I had high expectations. We got the Ocean divers appetizer, the Pink Lady roll, and Lava roll. Both the rolls were okay, I would give them a 3.5 rating. The Ocean divers appetizer was a complete disappointment. Both the Tempura shrimp and calamari rings were bland, didn't have any seasoning on them, the gyoza's were okay, edamame that it came with was the best part of the appetizer. read more

My friends That live in the Everett area go to this place all the time so they ordered us to go sushi and I must say I was very impressed. Samurai roll is a must have! The pecan in the roll sounds like it would be weird, but it was absolutely delicious and it added an extra "bite" to the flavor. Also bought the pink lady and Godzilla roll. I think our friends ordered the samurai roll times five haha so we were extremely surprised when we had free tempura rolls. They value their customers for sure. I can't wait to go back and get the samurai roll again times 5! read more

I feel like upper Bothell Everett highway area is pretty quiet...so Oceano sushi felt like a hole in the wall restaurant. The two of us ordered 4 rolls and tempura but I think we would've been perfectly content with 3 rolls. I can't remember which of the 4 rolls we didn't like as much, but we were pretty happy with our choices! But oh my god, don't get the tempura lol. It was edible of course but it was not seasoned...and the vegetables could've been cooked more. read more

I love this place! Delicious rolls and great service. It's hard to pick only a few rolls. They are all so good.

The food was decent. My wife didn't like her order much. This place has good reviews but maybe our order didn't match the reviews that day? The staff were very friendly. Request you to give it a shot even though I didn't have great experience. read more

I have a VERY sensitive stomach .. so much so that if the basic food handlers rules and principles aren't followed I get SEVERE food poisoning. Sometimes I end up in the hospital.

We got miso soups, spicy California roll, Tamago and Veggie Heaven roll. Food was fresh and yum! The servers were very nice as well.

One of my favorite sushi places around. It's nice and clean, staff is friendly and the food is always fantastic.

Food is always fresh and good. Service is always friendly. After Covid they struggled to hire staff and have never really recovered from staffing. Sadly the Sushi BAR-top portion of the restaurant has never re-opened (which was our favorite place to sit). But we still go and enjoy their food, but sit in the dining room instead. It's a small family owned place and a great place for good sushi. read more

Food was great and the presentation was excellent. Service was friendly and fast. We split the dragon balls appetizer (delicious and very spicy), fuego roll and mount Rainer roll. read more

I have had sushi all over the world including places known for their sushi like NYC and Japan. Oceano is one of the very best. They make traditional rolls perfectly but they also offer some of the most innovative and delicious fusion style rolls you can't get anywhere else (Macho Macho). This family owned restaurant hits way above their weight class. Believe it or not, my kids love this place too. During COVID, we definitely miss being able sit at the Sushi Bar and watch them but their take home experience is top notch as well. Bottomline- This place is friendly, afforable, and DELICIOUS! If you are eating sushi somewhere else, you are missing out. read more

Oceano Sushi - Caterpillar Roll, Macho Macho Roll, Tempera Roll, and Tako - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bothell, Washington

Overall, this is a good spot. The portions are great, but they did raise prices a bit which may not show up on their online menu, so you should double check (about $1-2 increase per item). My only issue is that it always generally takes 30-45 minutes for pickup and not 20min like they always say on the phone. So if you do order, know it will take that long so you're not waiting around for 20-25 min. read more

Everything was wonderful. We came here because of several positive Yelp reviews and it did not disappoint. We had the dragon balls which were wonderful and spicy and then we had the coconut prawns which were the perfect amount of sweet. We had 3 different kinds of rolls which came in the beautiful boat presentation. And then, because it was my fiance birthday they provided him with a complimentary dessert. I can't recommend Oceano enough! read more
