Great food and service. Brought my son who loves sushi but had only been to larger restaurants. We loved the quaint size and authentic feel with salad and soup provided with our rolls. Ordered app, Sapporo and 3 rolls - bill was $65. Stayed nearby at Marriott (short walk). Will go back another time when in town! read more

Omi was the spot back in college 20 years ago. Hip interior. Busy business. And awesome food. I introduced so many people to sushi for the first time here. Hell, this was the best sushi in town when Sansu still only had 8 tables. Been back a few times in recent years and it's not what I remember. Either everyone else upped their game or the quality just went down. Be good again Omi. You have a place in my heart. 3.4/5 read more

Omi Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - East Lansing, Michigan

It's always fun to stop by old favorites whenever we're in East Lansing. Omi Sushi was one of my favorite places when I was in college, and I'm happy that it's still open. I ordered takeout from this spot countless times while living in EL. Nate and I were in the area and stopped in for a late lunch on a Sunday recently. We were seated right away - I loved that they had vases of flowers on the tables. The blue color scheme is soothing, and I like the cozy bench seating. The menu has expanded a ton since I was there last! They have a bar now, with beer, wine, and sake, as well as lots of typical sushi restaurant offerings. I noticed they also have tabletop shabu shabu, which I'd love to try in the future. Omi Sushi is the first place I ever tried a crunch munch roll, which is still one of my favorite sushi rolls to this day. We got one of those, a spicy California roll, spicy scallop roll, and an order of the soft shell crab karaage, which I'd never seen before. Our meal also came with a miso soup and house salad. The soft shell crab karaage came out quickly. The dish consisted of a deep fried soft shell crab and a little bit of shredded cabbage, a squirt of kewpie mayo, and a lemon slice. I was expecting it to be crispier - it was a little soggy and soft, but the flavor was nice and the taste of the crab was prominent. I wouldn't order this again but it was fun to try. The soup and salad were your basic versions of these sushi restaurant staples. The rolls were all presented nicely. I did notice that the crunch munch roll is smaller than I remember but it's still very tasty, with tempura shrimp, crab salad, poached shrimp on top and eel sauce. The fish all tasted fresh, the rice was cooked well, and the bill was reasonable. Our server was great and very kind. While it's not the best sushi I've ever had, I'll always have a special place in my heart for Omi and hope they stay open for a long time! read more

It has a kind of cafeteria type atmosphere. It's clean and very quaint. The service was spot on very fast and friendly dishes removed fast. The food was extremely good. The Maki roll was so good we also had the monkey brains appetizer. The mushroom in that was crisp and popped in your mouth so much flavor in everything I had. read more

Omi has a very relaxing atmosphere and there are often beautiful fresh flowers on the tables. I have had excellent service every single time I have ever visited. There is a 2 for $12 or 3 for $15 lunch special if you order before 3 pm. My favorite house special roll is the Crazy Salmon. The soup and salad that come with it are delicious too. My favorite dessert is the fried cheesecake! read more

The hot pot is soooooo good, and the device is quick and they check in frequently to see if you need anything. I highly recommend.

It has been years since I last visited Omi. Once a great place to enjoy sushi, it did not disappoint me much with the same. However, their teriyaki chicken is not something I would order again. It was overcooked and, overall, mediocre. While not in the picture (was in a hurry to eat the first dish full of delicious sushi), their rolls were as good as I remembered. I had ordered a you pick 3 consisting of spicy tuna, spicy salmon and Philadelphia rolls. However, you usually can't (shouldn't) go wrong with these choices. If I am ever in town again, I will surely to re-visit. read more

Omi Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - East Lansing, Michigan

Since traveling to Lansing for work recently, I was pleasantly surprised by the number of interesting food options around where I'm staying in East Lansing. I tried Omi Sushi for the first time two nights ago, since I was in the mood for sushi and this one of the at least three well-reviewed sushi places on Yelp was the closest to me. I walked in on a weekday evening and put in my takeout order with the host who was nice. The food didn't take long to prepare, which I appreciated, and it wasn't too crowded. I ended up ordering a house special roll, which varies in having 5-8 pieces. When I asked him how many pieces the omi maki roll had, he said five, and I think he saw my incredulous look before I could stop it, because he reassured me that they were fairly big pieces. You can decide for yourself in my photo, but it was actually an okay size for me. The omi maki roll has eel, cream cheese, and asparagus battered in tempura and deep fried with eel sauce. The rolls come with a salad or miso soup, and I opted for the salad in an effort to be somewhat healthy. Originally, I wanted to give a three star review because I was so disappointed in the salad. The omi maki roll is good especially if you like cream cheese, and it was an enjoyable dinner. The salad, however, was nowhere close to fresh, and the dressing tasted like watery oil. The dressing did nothing to spruce up the salad, and I couldn't force myself to eat it. I'll probably come back to Omi Sushi depending on how the other sushi places in East Lansing compare, or if I want some katsu, but I will probably skip the salad. But, I've been here a second time and gotten the maki 7 roll, which is yummy, and got the soup this time, which is definitely the move. Given how much joy this sushi place (and the fact that I still want to keep working my way through their sushi menu as well as their non-sushi items), I bumped my rating to 4 stars. Just don't get the salad. read more

The place was small but very cute. The tempura udon didn't have much flavor to it. Neither did the complimentary miso soup. The noodles have a nice chew and texture to it but the tempura shrimp was tiny & not like any other tempura shrimp i've had before. Would not recommend. I also got the dragon roll & that was really good. My friend got the spicy salmon roll & that was really good too. The sushi is better than the other food they serve. read more

Enjoyed dining at Omi Sushi. Good portions. Loved the appetizers and sushi. My daughter ordered the spicy ramen bowl which was very generous portion size and she loved it. read more

I omi. The service is nice and fast. I ordered the crab rangoons and it's one of my fav places to get them. I wanted a salmon mango roll but they don't have mango which is disappointing, but the salmon avocado with a side of eel sauce was still amazing. Salmon tastes fresh. I also got the house small udon and I think it it the perfect size if you get appetizers. The broth needs a little more salt, so I add soy sauce and it is great. The shrimp tempura in the udon gets soggy so if you want it crunchy, ask for it on the side. Overall, omi always hits the spot when I want sushi or udon read more

This is my go-to restaurant in EL. It NEVER disappoints. You can go there for sushi - hibachi - shabu shabu - noodles - Japanese entrees. Service is impeccable. Sake is reasonably priced. We come at least 1-2 times a month. Try the tofu steak appetizer, crunch munch 2, fish egg don, or tonkatsu. read more

This is our go-to spot in East Lansing. The sushi is always great and we typically get the Top 4 special. Prices are a lot cheaper than other places around Lansing and the lunch specials are a great deal. Service is always quick, but the miso sometimes comes out cold. Other than that, we have not had a bad experience here! read more

My go to sushi place in the Lansing/East Lansing area. A great place for great sushi! I have no complaints and staff is friendly. I usually get the Crunch Munch II and then get another roll that I haven't tried yet. My boyfriend always gets the Sweet Potato and Angry Bird rolls. Delicious sushi rolls and better than most in the area. Enjoy! read more

The food here is nothing less than very enjoyable to eat! I had the spicy tempura chicken, the spicy ramen and diablo sushi! All of which had unique aspects to them that you would not expect! The sushi incorporated rice paper, jalapeños and avocados. The spicy ramen added a diverse mixture of fish cakes, oysters, large shrimp, fried egg, and napa cabbage and the broth was spicy and delicious! Very creative presentations! Now, for a little bit of the downside. When I was first seated, I was there alone. So, I was seated near the back by the bathroom.. Asked to be moved and they didn't seem happy. I was moved to a table that was unstable. I had to put numerous things on the underside of the table so it would not topple over. The staff, initially, seemed a bit cold and annoyed with me. But, as the experience went on... They did warm up a bit and it all ended well. The food came out in a timely manner and as I said, it was not disappointing at all!! Great lunch combos on the menu as well! Looking forward to coming back soon with more people! If I am not by myself, I know I will get a better table and the food is good! read more

A solid price point for Sushi in a college town. It's in the middle of Michigan, and you're not gonna see much better prices than this for any kind of sushi in the Midwest. Yes, Goma by Dante in Cleveland is incredible, but if you order sashimi your gonna hit close to 75 - 100 before drinks, and entree. The staff seems to always be very attentive. I've eaten there three times in the last month, and the food seemed to be aligned with what the menu says. The taste is solid for the price point, and the menu is basically an homage to a meat and three. I've seen the same items before across the US and it's kinda like sushi comfort food. Ain't nothing wrong with that! read more

Really solid sushi. Some of my favorites are the eel combo and the deep fried spicy California roll. However, the appetizer are just alright. The takoyaki dough is a little undercooked the soft shell crab was pretty mediocre. read more

One of my favorite sushi places in east lansing! Besides the fact that it's smaller and doesn't have free parking, the food is soo satisfying. I've tried many of their different rolls, udon, and some different appetizers. This one eel roll was soo big it lasted as two meals for myself. The interior is all clean and perfect for a nice lunch/dinner out. Just wish they had some larger tables for groups too... and that you didn't have to pick between miso soup or salad. read more

Reasonably priced with very big portions! i ordered some sushi and hibachi vegetables as well as tempura ice cream. the sushi was amazing and the hibachi was also good although not as good as the sushi, but that's to be expected since it isn't a hibachi restaurant. i absolutely loved the tempura ice cream and i wish i had left space to eat more of it but i will definitely get it again next time! read more

I just stumbled upon this place while staying in East Lansing. I played it safe and got a spicy salmon roll, California roll & edamame. I was pleasantly surprised at how fresh the sushi was. Usually you can't tell sushi is fresh until you bite into it. You could see the freshness when you opened it. It was really good! The avocado was literally perfect in my California roll. They were not stingy with the salmon in the spicy salmon roll. My only complaint is the edamame didn't have salt on it and there was none in the bag. Other than that this will be my new sushi spot when I'm in town read more

Omi has been a long standing go to sushi spot for me. As a past long time MAC resident I spent too many afternoons shoving my face with delish rolls then rolling over to the Riv for an evening of fun. Omi never has a bad day. Cool interior and generous portions! read more

I've been out here for work for a few weeks and have been staying at the Marriott and wanted some legit Japanese food. I asked the front desk and they recommended Omi sushi. I'm originally from Hawaii and live in California so my standards are a bit high. So when I say it's legit, it's legit. Here's why: 1) The sushi is not filled with rice and while they do have rolls with mayo and crispy stuff to appease the non-authentic roll crowd, their sushi is good. The pieces of fish they give are good quality and cuts and the tako is done well, not chewy. 2) I like amaebi, aka 'sweet shrimp'. You know a Japanese restaurant in Michigan is good when they fry the head. And do a good job! 3) Their bento is delicious and on point. You need to dine in for it though. I always get the salmon teriyaki bento. It comes with a California roll, but you can upgrade it to just a salmon roll for $1. The agedashi is perfect. Not crazy fried, the tofu skin is thin and mochi like. The tempura is also perfectly fried and flavored. Also the salad dressing on the salad is just like what Japanese restaurants should serve - ginger :) 4) Their music. While I've dined in there, they played M-Flo (throwback whhaaat) and Utada. So you know they know what's up. If you haven't tried Omi yet, you need to. I've gone there several times in the last few weeks, 3 times actually last week. They also do take out! read more

I've gotten food a couple of times here. I got to come into the shop recently as a lunch date with my friend and it was perfect for that. I loved the shades of blue on the interior; it made me feel calm. We ordered their 3 for $12 lunch combo. Sushi here is good, I think my sweet potato one could have been slightly more cooked, they also didn't have non-imitation crab rolls so we got salmon and tuna. It was okay, I mean I guess they were also the basic rolls. Nothing to write much about but still it was decent amount of food for the price, and it tasted good. My friends fried katsu was very delicious- thinly sliced and juicy. The other time I had gotten food I got the Japanese vegetable udon which is a very earthy taste and the curry udon which I definitely recommend for that standard yellow curry taste. Our server, Amanda, was very polite, attentive and friendly! read more

Stopped in to Omi Sushi with my boyfriend last week and enjoyed our experience. It has been several years since I've eaten here, and the menu is much better than I remember. We loved everything we ordered, and were surprised that the 'green monster' roll was our favorite of them all. It is was definitely in my top two in the area for that type of roll. A few of the rolls that had spicy crab salad in, or on top of, it tasted pretty similar, but were good. I'm giving them four stars for this visit because our service was great, the presentation was nice, our rolls came with a soup or salad (and the salad was pretty good sized), and the sushi rolls were filling and flavorful. Worth checking out, but parking can be tough. I'd recommend parking across the street in the MSU structure after hours and walking to avoid getting a ticket. read more

Probably the best cheap place for sushi in East Lansing. Service was good and staff was very knowledgeable about the menu. Sushi was fresh and the rolls were pretty large. For a group of 3 people, 6 rolls were enough to fill us up. We ordered 3 signature rolls and 3 simple. Total bill including drinks was around $44. read more

Teriyaki beef is not their strong suit. It was somehow both over cooked and nearly raw, extremely fatty, and luke warm. The rice was the warmest thing I got. Miso also nearly cold. There was no discernible seasoning on the beef. What teriyaki? The only flavor was cold beef. Could not finish my plate. I'm taking a long break from this establishment read more

It doesn't look like much from the outside, but the food and service here is great! I'm so happy we discovered it, and we will be back soon!

Me and my boyfriend went here for a dinner on Wednesday night. The food was absolutely great! We got the Special California roll, Philadelphia roll, shrimp avocado cucumber roll, and a smoked salmón nigiri. It was all absolutely amazing. It was my boyfriends first time having sushi and my first time ordering it at an actual restaurant - take that as you would like - and we were both very happy with the quality :) The raw smoked salmon seemed to melt in my mouth and was delicious. We will definitely be back. read more

The food was ok. Hot pod was not bad, but overpriced, should be cheaper. Sushi and nigiri were so so, definitely American style Asian food. Service was bad, All the staffs were standing there and taking to each other, no one took care of us, had to wait and wait and asked if they have time to refill our water, their attitude was rude. This review is for the service, terrible. read more
