This place has the best sushi in the city. I have tried so many rolls over the years and they have not missed. Parking is a little difficult because of the location but you will be able to find something. I think I got the derby roll. Man!!!! That was amazing. Very large to put in your mouth. I struggled a bit but I did it. So worth it. I can't wait to try everything else there. The service- they were always around checking on you. Never had to ask for anything. read more

Oishii Sushi - 229. Derby Roll (No Rice Roll) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Louisville, Kentucky

I had Oishii Sushi yesterday for dinner. Their sushi is second to none and the prices really can't be beat. The restaurant has gone through many changes over the years from a small diner to the two room setup they have today.. The football on the TVs rakes away from the atmosphere somewhat but is overshadowed by the food and service provided. read more

Although given a generous amount of fish the flavors were bland, I ordered smoked salmon and could barely taste the smokiness, might as well have been just salmon or no fish at all read more

I have tried just about every sushi spot in Louisville, and Oishii is my favorite. The location is convenient, but parking is a nuisance - their lot is tiny. Service is always good, the ambiance is a bit bland. And frankly, none of these extraneous considerations matter to me! When I go out for sushi, I just want it to be plentiful and delicious. For reasons I have yet to contemplate and unpack, I don't really look at ordering sushi as a fine-dining experience where the service and the venue and the decor and the menu diversity all factor in much. To me, either your sushi rolls are top-notch or they're not. And by this rubric, Oishii is unrivaled in Louisville, KY. One can argue that Sapporo's happy hour is a better value, or that the Dragon King's Daughter's bento box is the best bang for your buck sushi lunch. But no one can accurately claim to have better sushi than Oishii. Here are my ratings for rolls I have tried: Koi 9 Highlander 8.5 Hot 8.5 Aloha 8 Crazy Eel 8 Zen 8 2in1 7.5 Hawaiian 7.5 Volcano 7 Lieutenant 7 Big Daddy 7 Sunset 7 Derby 6 Spicy Tuna 6 Spicy Salmon 5 I also appreciate that Oishii isn't stingy with their pickled ginger. They're not the cheapest spot in town, but when one considers that their rolls are generously-sized, they're not unreasonably-priced at all. Highly recommended! read more

Amazing service and staff was very friendly. A coworker highly recommended this place. Very hole in the wall vibes with a tiny parking lot but they make up for it with the sushi. Very fresh and the hot saki was a cherry on top. Great date spot were it isn't loud and can have a nice conversation read more

We dined at Oishii Sushi - it's somewhere I've always wanted to try but never got around to it. It's usually pretty crowded. We ended up stopping by on a Saturday night but came in past dinner hour around 7:30 so we were seated immediately. The menu is more extensive than I thought it would be and includes simple sushi rolls, speciality rolls, teriyaki plates, etc. We ordered a California roll, crunch munch roll, and rainbow roll and the teriyaki chicken plate with fried rice and vegetables. The sushi only took about 20 minutes and the portions were big. The sushi was fresh and there was a large portion of ginger and wasabi. The chicken dish was okay - I wouldn't recommend upgrading to the fried rice. It didn't taste like hibachi rice and wasn't worth the added price. read more

Yummy japanese food here! We started with vegetable tempura and chicken yakitori which were fantastic. For entrees we had chicken teriyaki, chicken katsu, ton katsu, and chicken yakisoba. All were amazing except the yakisoba (which is traditional a pan fried noodle dish, here i could tell the noodles were not fried and they did not use enough soy sauce while cooking). The service was a bit slow, but the restaurant itself was clean and well decorated. Overall I would come back for anything except the yakisoba, as the rest was truly delicious. read more

I visited Oishii Sushi for a lunch date and it was a great option for lunch. They really came to our table right away, took our drink order and were very effective and efficient on getting our order in and to our table. I tried the calamari and Oishii Fried Roll. Let's start with the calamari. Very interesting as I have never had calamari in long strips, only circles. It was fine, I go back-and-forth with if I would buy it again. Their sushi is very big. Where are you? Have to take multiple bites for just one piece. The sushi with overall was good and I would definitely order again from this location. read more

Oh man. I've had sushi in some major metropolitan parts of the world and Oishii is solid! The staff are so friendly, helpful, and funny. Portion sizes are great and everything is so flavorful. The menu is a bit overwhelming but the chefs will also accommodate your cravings. (Such as seared salmon nigiri---sooo good). They aren't afraid to add some spice to the rolls which I appreciate but you can also get tremendous flavor without the heat among their options. read more

To put it simply Oishii is extremely mediocre "American" sushi. Don't get your hopes up. The rice was very low quality, tuna lower quality, and the rolls were just a mess. read more

Our neighborhood Sushi bar is the bees!! We do miss the sushi bsr being open. Since Covid, togo is the highest rate its ever been and the sushi bar is gone. The sushi is felicious and their daily deals are a steal! For someone short with extra love on their bottom like me, sitting at the sushi bar was more comfortable than the tiny but tall uncomfortable chairs and higher tables. read more

Well... I was yelled at for trying to order sushi... I gave the waitress my order- they didn't have anything I wanted so I asked if I gave her the ingredients for a roll could they make it. She said yes. Gave her the inside ingredients and for the outside. I know how this works... some lady comes from the kitchen and starts screaming at me the restaurant is silent and I'm so embarrassed... so yeah we have left the building. Waitress was really nice though. I can't even. read more

I had lunch recently that was very disappointing. My sister treated me to a birthday lunch. We arrived a 1: 20pm. We were not informed by our server that they closed at 1 : 45pm. We ordered an appetizer of shrimp tempura which was good and a lot of different maki & nigri sushi (5 dishes) and hot tea. After we were served all the sushi dishes, our waitress came back 10 minutes later and told us they were closed and she could bring us boxes, that we needed to leave. I looked at my watch and it was 2: 05pm. We had just started eating. I questioned her and said well go ahead & pay now but can we please stay and finish our food for another 20 to 30 minutes? She said no they are closed. We were shocked. We paid & asked for boxes. I suggested that she should have told us before we ordered that we'd have to leave in 25 minutes. We spent more than $75 on sushi that was mediocre at best. She did say she was sorry but it wasn't genuine. My sister did give her a 20% tip. If it would have been me I would have not tipped her at all. It was the worst, disingenuous service I've ever experienced. She ruined my birthday. They lost good customers that always spend lots of $$$ & tip well. We will not be back or recommend this place to anyone. There are many other better sushi places in town like Omakase, Sakura Blue, Sapporo, Hikomon & even Malone's that serve delicious fresh sushi & have graceful service. I would give 0 stars if I could. read more

I've been wanting to try Oishii for quite a while, and finally ordered take out for my book club BYOD (bring your own dinner) indoor picnic this week. I ordered by phone, and the person who took my order was polite and thorough, repeating back my order and phone number to ensure it would be correct. I ordered the vegetable sushi roll (DELICIOUS and unique, stuffed with jalapeno, pickled radish, gobo, asparagus, avocado, and cucumber and topped with seaweed salad), as well as an order of seaweed salad because yum. My order was ready on time, correct, and so tasty. I especially appreciated the generous helping of pickled ginger, which is one of my favorites. Oishii - you rock. Thanks for a great first experience - I'll be back! read more

Great portions for the price but not what I would consider an upscale sushi restaurant-- which is fine! I would come back again for takeout. The sushi rolls are very tasty and loaded up with toppings! My only complaint is that I prefer "one bite" sushi pieces. Its a little impractical to try to take two or more, but I can appreciate the amount of food they provide! The tables are a bit close to one another so it's not as private as I may want for a date night. That said, the service is quick. The sushi came out fast after we ordered, but I didn't love the method of writing my own order on the paper. It was also a bit confusing because it seemed like the paper for ordering had different items than one I saw on the physical menus. read more

This is the best sushi restaurant in Louisville hands down. Biggest rolls. Best bang for your buck!

My favorite dinner date chose sushi for his birthday dinner, so we met some friends at Oishii to celebrate. Oishii is one of those places that you may notice when you drive by and think, "I need to try that", then forget about it by the time you get home. Or you may not notice it at all. There is nothing fancy about either the exterior or interior; but that is where the meh ends. Great food + great service = a recipe for success!! As you can see from the pictures, we ordered 6 different rolls and some white tuna nigiri. The nigiri was, hands down, the largest I have ever seen. Maybe the Jolly Green Giant could eat it whole, but any normal person will need it cut in half. The spicy roll was extra large, too, and had to be eaten in multiple bites. Even so, it won the 'best of the night' award from all of us. I can honestly say this is the first time I have liked every roll we ordered. Of course, I had my favorites, but I would order every single one of them again. read more

Good spot for sushi, if that's your thing. Not too many other offerings other than teriyaki and yakisoba. BUT, the sushi is good. We've been coming here for years and have never been disappointe. Lots of different things I've never seen on sushi menus. They put fruit on some of the rolls. Sounds strange, but really it works! There's also a good fruit roll, that even the waitress joke is the dessert role. Not crazy fancy, or crazy big, but these guys definitely know their way around a sushi mat. The staff is always very nice and makes the experience that much better. Go check it out! read more

I forgot what we ordered but it was just okay and the service was really slow and inattentive. One of the rolls had such big pieces we had to cut them in half. I wish they had photos of all of their rolls to make choosing eI prefer Osaka or Sakura Blue personally. read more

Oishii has been a favorite for a few years now. Their sushi options are delightfully delectable They offer pretty good portion sizes in comparison to some other sushi places in the city and their quality is CONSISTENTLY top notch. Their ginger salad is delicious. Probably also the best ginger dressing you will find locally. The sushi options seem endless and they have something to offer for every persons liking. Shrimp, salmon, crab, eel, and veggie rolls with a few favorites being the geiza roll, the dragon roll, Hawaiian roll, and the lobster roll. Their fried rice is pretty good and the portion is hefty. The service is quick, attentive, and friendly. We visit oishii between 2-4 times a month, it's REALLY, that good. read more

Fresh and unique sushi. Clean restaurant but not that much 'atmosphere.' Live getting sushi to go from here.

As a sushi lover (and I mean LOVER) this place is my all time favorite sushi spot ever!! The fish is always fresh and the rolls are always consistent. You get so much bang for your buck here with the fish to rice ratio. It's ALWAYS packed, so just be patient. It's worth the wait! My favorites are the Randy roll, thunder over Louisville roll, Ned way no rice roll... the options are endless. Now I'm craving Oishii Sushi! read more

The last thing you want in a Japanese restaurant that serves raw fish is for it to be dirty.. Oishii sushi looked. Dirty to us as soon as we enter the front door. We should've turned around at that point however, we love Japanese food and wanted to try a new place. When we ordered, items were left off and never delivered. No one checked to see if everything was OK. The food was not good. The service was not good. Both my wife and I have been sick for two days after eating there. Not going back. read more

I don't usually give 5 stars but why not. Coming from nyc, they truly do have some delicious and fresh specialty rolls. My fiancé and I went there for dinner and ordered 4 specialty rolls. They were nothing but fresh, mouthful, flavorful, and delicious. Compared to nyc where we came from, the pricing is about the same as nyc but here you get bigger portion and more ingredients filled rolls. The freshness you can smell. The flavor that explodes and remember. Server is pretty standard. The place is spacious enough for empty spaces between patrons. I'd totally go there if we ever stop by Louisville again. read more

Ok. Shrimp heads and sweet shrimp. You have won me over. The maki pieces are still enormous and hard to eat but, fried shrimp heads. The scallop sushi with tobiko was pretty excellent but did I mention the sweet shrimp with the fried shrimp head? I also had the hot roll. Big pieces of fresh tuna with jalapeños and tempura crunch. It was really good but I can't get the shrimp heads out of my mind. Oishii I am converted. It will not be nearly as long before I return. Will you have shrimp heads tomorrow? read more
