    Spicy California roll, spicy scallop roll, crunch munch roll
    Katy C.

    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!

    Crazy Salmon
    Kaylee L.

    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!

    Combo 1

    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.

    Teriyaki Chicken
    Matt I.

    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.

    The last great sushi on Lansing. Portions are sparse, like read the paper thin Nigiri and sashimi cuts, but fresh and tasty for the Mitten!

    Omi maki roll
    Michelle G.

    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.

    Tempura Udon
    Danielle D.

    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.

    salmon combo crunch munch II spicy California, California, crunch crab

    I get Sushi here every week because it is so good. I usually come to get the lunch combo because it's the one of the best fields for a College Student. It's a small place but service is great.

    Mango Saki
    Rebecca I.

    Best sushi I have had anywhere! I love been to big and small places. Spent a lot and a little money but the sushi never tasted this good. The atmosphere is small and college towny (MSU) but the sushi is outstanding. Also I recommend trying the saki because it's super flavorful.

    House Small Udon
    Bianca S.

    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

    Salmon Teriyaki Bento
    Zoe K.

    I ordered the Salmon Teriyaki Bento Box from here and it was absolutely delicious! The service was quick and the server was super polite. The presentation was so pretty and the food was even better. I would definitely recommend heading over, there are so many options to chose from.

    Diablo roll, tempura California roll
    Maya C.

    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!

    Sushi rolls. Crunch Munch II, Sweet Potato roll and angry bird.
    Stephanie S.

    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!

We happened to come during happy hour which looks to be Tuesday-Thursday 4:30-6p. We ordered the potato croquettes and tempura portabella mushrooms for appetizers.

We were surprised by the amount that we got. I didn't really like the sauce that came with the croquettes so I used the sauce that came with the mushrooms.

The team members we encountered were welcoming and friendly. We were seated right away as during the summer with the college students scarce, getting seated right away isn't abnormal. The restaurant was quiet so we selected a seat next to the window; the foot and vehicle traffic on Grand River was a nice backdrop. We started with shrimp shumai and the tempura appetizer, then decided on the sushi combo b and avocado don for our mains. The shrimp shumai were dainty but tasty! However, the tempura veggies weren't really flavorful and I'm not sure what the sauce served with them was intended to offer but minimal flavor was found there as well. The avocado don was like a deconstructed sushi roll and was absolutely delightful, although the dish would have benefited from the avocado being more ripe; it was flavorful and plentiful! The sushi combo was also delicious and fresh, served with plenty of wasabi and ginger. Speaking of ginger the ginger dressing on the side salad was so crisp, fresh and tangy it was definitely one of the highlights. I think the avocado don may end up being a lunchtime staple for me!

I'm absolutely flabbergasted that I have to spend the rest of memorial weekend with food poisoning, especially after spending $60+ tip for a lunch with myself and my two toddlers. While it seems that cleanliness is not a top priority, I should have walked out when the high chair they brought my two year old was filthy. How hard is it to clean a high chair? If the front of the house is dirty, it makes one wonder what the back of the house looks like. And now I'm especially curious after being sick all night. The odd thing is, they were not busy and they were not short staffed. The culprit was either the papa crema roll or the crab Rangoon dip. My bet it was the dip because it just tasted off. You could definitely tell that the Rangoon chips were not made fresh that day. Not only did they taste funny but they were also stale. However, it could have been a handful of things. Take a look at the most recent health inspections and there are some huge red flags; ones that come at no surprise given the way I have felt for the last 18 hours. Do yourself a favor and don't eat at Maru. They don't even have a three compartment sink. How in the heck are they cleaning ANYTHING properly?
