The food was incredible. Our server was also our chef and I was honestly super impressed by the quality. Some of the best sushi I've had and the Japanese curry was amazing as well. read more

Ruidoso Sushi - Japanese curry with beef (top) Las Vegas Roll (left), and the Alamogordo Roll (right) - Sushi Bars Near Me - Ruidoso, New Mexico

Drove an hour to Ruidoso to have some sushi which is located right next to all of the shops and restaurants in the cute touristy town. The cute little restaurant is located in a small little plaza and was quiet and quaint. I ordered my sushi roll and also noticed that they had ramen on the menu so I had to try it. My sushi roll was excellent. The ramen was good too but needed just a little bit more flavor for me. The presentation was great. And the service was phenomenal. The waitress was so friendly and attentive. I would definitely drive an hour to go back. They offer a chili oil that had great flavor as well. Stop by if you're in the area. read more

Ruidoso Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Ruidoso, New Mexico

This place is a gem! My family and I are repeat customers, and we are never disappointed in the quality of food and thoughtfulness with ingredients. Sometimes the service is slower, but today we received everything right on time, and we had a wonderful server. First round: a soft and delicate miso soup, green salad with house dressing, and veggie gyozas with a special sauce. Then, we feasted on a variety of vegan sushi rolls - my kids always request cucumber rolls that are not on the menu, but the owner/chef is gracious enough to accommodate, as well as the fried tofu and tempura asparagus rolls. Everything was fabulous and satisfying. One of our favorite spots to visit when in town. Thanks for another delicious meal! read more

Wrote a review just the other day trying to find out if Ruidoso Sushi was still open....it is. Hot lunch for my wife today. We have eaten there several times, always enjoyed the food and great service. My complaint, not really a complaint, was a lack of information about days of operation, when open etc. Even a message on his phone would be helpful. BUT I also realize that getting workers can also be difficult, and it appears at time it is only the owner and sometimes a waitress handling everything, and they do a great job. I would just hate to see the place go under because customers can't depend on the restaurant being open. Everytime in town one of our favorite places, when he is,open. read more

Updating my review after recently swinging in on a Saturday afternoon w a craving for sushi. There were only 2 people working and I know they were the two chefs, but we were greeted warmly and sat down without needing a reservation. Understandably slow being that the Village is still recovering, and it was nice to be a local and supporting a local business. We enjoyed some iced green tea and a couple nigiri pieces and a roll. It was all very delicious!!! We had yellowtail nigiri and unagi (eel) nigiri - both were fresh and melt in your mouth perfection. Can't wait to go back for more! We also had the Texas roll and it was great! The beef was tender and cooked nicely and all the ingredients complimented each other and the sauce was delicious. For sure recommend if you're looking for a roll and you want something more substantial than a California roll. This was my husband's first time here and he commented on how nice the restaurant is inside and it has a welcoming atmosphere. We look forward to visiting again and trying more rolls and having more yellowtail ;) read more

Outstanding one man show. We were seated fast had drinks and placed our orders all by the same guy... then he went and made us some bomb ass sushi!!!! read more

This was my second time at Ruidoso Sushi and I again had a very good experience. The Japanese Curry w/ salmon nuggets was delicious. The young lady serving me was efficient and friendly. The atmosphere is relaxed and comfortable with a mixture of local residents and visitors. This restaurant is a real gem in Ruidoso. read more

It was... ok. A few unique rolls, but nothing exceptional. The potato croquettes lacked flavor.

Great food, great service, everyone who visits needs to stop and spend there money here.

Everything was awesome ! The flavors were on point ! We will definitely be back I highly recommended it read more

Great Sushi; our favorite was the Ruidoso Roll! We also got a California Roll, an Avocado Roll, and Seaweed Salad. All delicious and fresh! read more

The food is excellent, so fresh!! There are several vegan options which are hard to find here in Ruidoso!! Waitress Molly is wonderful, so cheerful. Others have commented on the icky floors & I've noticed that they are sticky. I do not believe they are dirty, I think perhaps the owner treated them with something that has left them feeling permanently sticky read more

Great vegetarian and vegan options for this town. Clearly marked on menu and everything was super tasty.

If you're from out of town, visiting, and a fan of Asian food, then I wouldn't come here. The orange chicken tastes like it's from a frozen packet from the store. The ramen tastes like it's from a ramen packet. If you pay attention before your food comes out, you'll hear the microwave going off a few times, if that's any indication of the quality of food you'll be getting. read more

Food was good everything was so fresh I loved it wish I could've tried the octopus salad but I assume it was to maintain the freshness. However we ordered avocado roll, C4 roll, Alamogordo roll, shrimp, and the seafood noodles. The waitress was nice and overall a nice atmosphere for a small shop. read more

They need to update hours on yelp and on google because when we came it was closed which was a little disappointing

Wowza. This just wasn't good. Where to start? 1) the seaweed salad was from Sam's . 2) the Pork Goyoza were from Costco and were microwaved. 3) the cucumber salad was just some cucumbers with a salad dressing that was probably from Albertson's 4) the beef in the Yakisoba was shaved deli roast beef. The only fresh items in the dish were possibly the onions and peppers but the rest was from the freezer. It lacked seasoning. 5) The eel was decent and therefore brought up them up from 1 to 2 stars. Overall we were SUPER disappointed. This was just not a good food experience. read more

Some of the best sushi my husband and I have had. It's a little pricey, but worth it. We will be back when we visit Ruidoso again!

You can sit either inside or outside. I chose inside this time. The menu has many different choices, if you don't like sushi or if your vegan there's options for you as well! The service is good too. Parking is a little different. You have to park on the road or in the free parking areas and walk to this location but it's usually so pretty in Ruidoso, night as well enjoy a little walk. Social distancing is encouraged indoors as the tables are spaced out appropriately and the staff are wearing masks at this time. Food was really good! Legit place to get sushi! read more

Ruidoso Sushi - This used to be the ramen sooooo good! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Ruidoso, New Mexico

Came in earlier around 1:30 and the hostess informed us that to be seated before 5:30 we'd have to have reservations... cool. We reserved 7:00 pm that night. Once we arrived we ordered: Edemame (spicy) - delicious Miso soup - awful, tasted sour, and not fresh. Tuna tataki - pretty good, loved the sesame mustard sauce. Gyoza dumplings - flavorful, and a good dipping sauce! We ordered the Texas roll, and it was fishy (even though there wasn't much to it) sent it back. And had it taken off. Arizona roll - delicious. Rice bowls were tasty, orange chicken, spicy orange chicken, which wasn't spicy but oh well. The chef was running out of everything so we weren't able to order ramen, any sashimi, no soft shell crab or Nigiri. Bummer. Would I recommend this place to others? Probably not, but it wasn't terrible. Oh, and the soft spoken bleach blonde waitress was really nice and sweet. read more

Great food and service. The blonde lady is really friendly. Make sure to make a reservation. The orange chicken and the ramen were so good. read more

I was in town for a family reunion and was looking for a quick meal after playing the Links Golf Course. I always like trying new sushi places when I travel for work and came across this one. Parking in the Sudderth shopping area isn't the easiest thing but if you like good sushi, this hidden gem does not disappoint. The waitress was extremely courteous and quick with my drink order. I ordered a variety of nigiri and the Almagordo roll because it was similar to one that that I order at one of my usual spots in Texas with a slight difference being cooked salmon and escolar in the place of fried soft shell crab...holy smokes, it was delicious! The quality of the fish was way higher than I was expecting and the price was extremely reasonable. Would highly recommend and will be returning to on my future visits! read more

Ruidoso Sushi - Almagordo Roll, fresh salmon, albacore tuna. Not pictured, tuna and escolar - Sushi Bars Near Me - Ruidoso, New Mexico

Walking down the Sudderth I was given a sample of the orange chicken, instantly I was convinced. It was hot, had a home made orange chicken flavor, and exactly what I needed after a long day. I loved how open it felt, it was put together in a way that was simple and inviting. We got seated right away and throughout our meal the service was great. To start I ordered the miso soup, it was hot and the flavor was great. This was followed by my order of orange chicken. I can't explain how yummy it was. The orange chicken sauce had zests of orange in which gave it an extra citrusy tang. The chicken was roughly chopped and breaded and fried to perfection. I think the texture and overall cooking of it made it taste home made. The rice was also really good and it was a generous portion for $10. Can't wait to go back and try some of their other dishes and the sushi! read more

Up until a few days ago the last time i ate here was about 3 years ago; I remember that it wasn't that bad and really enjoyed the sushi I got; this time around I had their classic ramen and the broth was bland. It felt like it was missing a lot of things like green onion and corn (just a suggestion). I also think the portion of noodles was a bit much. I also took the chirashi bowl to go and ate it later that night. With that I wish they had listed out individually what was in it because i was not expecting seaweed salad and avocado to be in it. The fish was nice and soft, tasty. My boyfriend got the yakisoba and i tried some of it too. It had a funny taste to it and the chicken was dry. Overall I'd still come back to try something else, but I wasn't impressed unfortunately. Waitress was nice, attentive. read more

Really good sushi!! But definitely understaffed. Waited almost an hour just for it to come out. I'm sure it's rough with everything just opening up in NM. The waitresses did the best they could. They were nice and kept apologizing for the long waits. The food was amazing though. Really enjoyed it. read more

Amazing sushi, best in New Mexico so far. They even have green chili and cream cheese stuffed in some, but still have hand rolls, sashimi--anything you would want. The specialty rolls are insane, they have steak on top of the Texas roll and I noticed that they have a pretty delicious Vegan/Vegetarian selection as well that I can't wait to try. read more

Tasty sushi and dumplings last year! I was traveling through Ruidoso again looking forward to getting some sushi and now they only take reservations because they are extremely low staffed. I'm sure it's frustrating having to turn so many confused guests down as the server but she didn't have to be so rude about it. :( read more

This is a hidden gem in Ruidoso that is a must eat here everytime that I am in town!! The staff was very friendly and the selection they recommended was amazing!! I've eaten sushi from coast to coast and the taste and presentation was top notch!! I had the Arizona Roll and California Roll for dinner with the Green Tea Ice Cream for dessert. read more

Very good sushi for the middle of the country! A nice light miso soup, great spring rolls, and pork gyoza. Highly recommend the Red Dragon roll, has a little spice which was great. Las Vegas roll was lightly fried nicely and salmon was fresh. Marinated beef was tasty in the spring roll and as a bowl, really enjoyed the pickled mix on the side. Friendly staff with take out options and outdoor tables. read more

Ate lunch today. Great friendly service. The sushi was very delicious and served appropriately, at room temperature. We plan to return.

Make reservations. And don't be in a hurry. Then enjoy! My wife and I love sushi, and went for some off the wall flavors here. The tuna tataki was the best we've ever had, and somehow even the freshest. And we had to try something with that NM green chili twist - the Alamogordo roll didn't disappoint. Highly recommend this place! read more

DELICIOUS!!! Friendly staff, great atmosphere. Will absolutely be coming here regularly for my sushi & ramen!

My wife loves it and I recently discovered the have fried oysters we will be back next trip.

This place is really great! We had the Ruidoso ROLL and the Alamogordo ROLL. Amazing. The spring rolls were also very tasty and Charlie did a great job putting the order together. A fantastic find right in downtown Ruidoso. Highly recommend!! read more

I wouldn't go here. Staff is absolutely rude. I asked if they did Togo orders and they told me no because of the high amount of reservations they have. Restaurant was basically empty. I stated that it wouldn't be much I just wanted a roll and the lady condescendingly replied yes and walked away from me. Disgusting behavior. read more

The best sushi I've ever had. Try the Ruidoso roll! We had to wait about 45 min due to occupancy limits from COVID regulations, but boy was it worth the wait! read more

Denied me entry due to them being fully booked and only accepting reservations, yet half the tables where empty.
