loved the service day immediately and was well taken care of. the sushi was probably the best part of this experience. ate the pork cutlet bento box, comes with a side salad which was amazing, 4 pieces of california rolls, rice, and you have a choice between steamed and tempura vegetables. i chose the tempura and i wasn't a huge fan but it wasn't bad. the pork cutlet had this vinegary sauce and i wasn't a fan, but overall everything was great. had the lobo roll or maybe it's called the dragon roll . super good and did totally recommend even tho it's a bit pricey. read more

We don't come here often, but always enjoy it when we get the chance! We sat at the sushi bar so the kids could watch the action. Quick dinner before Popejoy. I didn't take photos of the rolls. But we enjoyed the ABQ roll and the kids shared some veg rolls. The shi shi peppers were a yummy appetizer and for dessert we enjoyed their fried bananas and mochi. Our friend said, wow, this mochi is the real deal! read more

Stopped in for second dinner. Can't say I'll be back. Neither my GF nor I enjoyed the food. The hamachi kama was overly seasoned with lemon, and the caterpillar roll tasted only of salty tare. I dont understand the hype. read more

I haven't had Japanese cuisine since Covid-19 started. I had a wonderful meal at Shogun, and I am sure to return back. I used to go to Japanese Kitchen, but Shogan was very tasty and the service was excellent and fast. Enjoyed my wonderful meal. When in the Nob Hill area, stop by and taste for yourself. read more

A little gem of Japanese food in Albuquerque! I brought my son for a mother son dinner date, and he was excited! We started with beef udon soup, heartwarming to the stomach! Then we tasted the crunch rolls, California rolls, and salmon sushi... if you sit at the bar, there's little boat platters that sail around the bar to serve you... it's an experience for the whole family! read more

I am a native Burqueno and, I have been living near the Nob Hill area for the past 10 years or so. Not to mention I frequent most of the eateries in the area! I have to admit I barely made my first visit to Shogun not too long ago. I love sushi, so I have no excuse as to why it has take me so long to try it. My boyfriend actually picked it for a Friday night dinner. The place is small, but super cute with the island that the sushi chefs are all secluded in, catering to our sushi needs. They're surrounded by a moat of sushi boats! I loved it! Obviously, large rolls and things don't sit atop the boats. They did send our pickled ginger and wasabi on it, along with my order of salmon sashimi! I was thrilled! My salmon was also very prettily shaped into a flower. They were winning with me, that's for sure. I don't normally stray from the classic sort of rolls, but I saw their Flaming Crunch Roll on the menu and had to have it. I am obsessed with Flaming Hot Cheetos and I thought what better way to combine two foods I love. Why not, when in Rome right? It hit the spot for me. I really enjoyed myself here. It may seem like a fairly simple and possibly corny set up with the stream of sushi boats, but I found it to be quite entertaining! What I had was delicious and I look forward to coming back to try more. read more

Do NOT eat here!!! The sushi was terrible and after dinner my friend and I had a drink across the street and they had both of our vehicles towed. The tow company said they towed 15 vehicles from the lot that night alone read more

On this #thank you Thursday I'd like to highlight one of the best dining experiences I had in Albuquerque! The service was accommodating and they made room for us in the back! It's so cool to watch everyone's sushi being made and it going out knowing the little boats. This was also the first time I got to try uni and it was the best sushi I have ever had to this day! I am an uni lover for life! It was an amazing tine spent with friends and I still look back on it fondly! It's such a unique spot and it's located on central. The restaurant is quaint and the sushi boat seating is spacious. I hope you all have a chance to check out this amazing place in abq! read more

Absolutely amazing sushi. It's a small restaurant with a general table seating area on one side and a sushi bar conveyor belt style on the other side. The service was quick and friendly and the sushi was phenomenal. The fish was extremely fresh and flavorful and it is one of the only places in town that has real wasabi if you ask for it. The sushi prices were comparable to most places in town but the quality is much higher here. read more

We went here to show the kids a sushi boat restaurant. They are not really operating like a normal sushi boat place though- nothing is on the boats as they go by, and you have to order off the menu. When a small plate is ready, they put it on a boat and tell you to watch out for it. When a large plate is ready, they just hand it to you over the counter. Not a real sushi boat experience. However, the sushi was good. We got an assortment of rolls and some nigiri, and all were good. The Beef Gyoza were also very tasty. Not cheap, but overall an enjoyable dinner. read more

A cozy small Japanese restaurant in Nob Hill. Since I'm from Japan, I'm picky when it comes to sushi so it's not my favorite place, but I think it was alright. The boat thing is the closest thing to a conveyor belt sushi we have in abq. Lol. The scallops tasted good. The volcano roll was alright, kind of heavy but it has cream cheese, so not surprising. The server was very nice. If someone invites me, I'll go again. read more

Really good sushi and a fun vibe. The place is rather small but that's what makes the atmosphere fun. We sat at the sushi bar which has sushi boats bringing your food around. We ordered the Tempura, Smokey roll and a couple others. All were worth the price. They have sushi from sashimi, to California roll, all the way to $15 specialty rolls. Will be visiting again. read more

Sushi is about both the fish and the rice. This wasn't good sushi rice. Neither properly cooked nor properly seasoned. If you go, maybe stick to sashimi. read more

Worst sushi in Albuquerque. I'm not one to complain usually but i had to this time in hopes that the restaurant might improve (doubtful). Sushi smelled fishy #1, rolls were loose and even found a hair in the rainbow roll. Didn't even eat the rest of our order. I think the worst part was coming out of the restaurant with some other guests and they realized they had their car towed while parked behind the restaurant in the designated Shogun parking. They seem to be more concerned with their parking situation than the actual quality and service of the restaurant. Please avoid at all costs! read more

Wasn't expecting much going out for sushi in ABQ since we are just so far from the coast. Walking in we were promptly greeted and the staff was very friendly. They were prompt with our orders and it was spaced out nicely where we didn't feel rushed but also didn't feel like we were sitting around for the food. The food was good and the sushi was flavorful and tasty! I also got the Kama which is always a nice treat to have when not in the mood for sashimi! read more

I miss Sushi from the Bay Area. I can't lie, but this place was fantastic. I highly recommend the sushi. The rice is fresh, which is a huge plus. Sushi boats! I had been missing sushi boats on a little conveyor belt while sitting at the sushi bar, awaiting your sushi as it comes floating to you on boats. I know it's quite cheesy of a preference, but it adds to the ambiance. The service is great and staff is very friendly. Highly recommend the NY steak roll. It's a great take of Surf and Turf with a delightful addition of jalapeño for a slight bit of heat. The monkey ball was wonderful and I really enjoyed the green mussels. Prices are very affordable and you get a good amount of food. I will definitely return. I recommend you go early. They open at 5pm, so be there if you want to find parking behind the restaurant or nearby and the restaurant fills up FAST. read more

We went to o Shogun last night after not having been there for a year. We were warmly welcomed by a lovely woman in a kimono. We ordered two rolls and a tuna salad. The rolls were not rolled tightly and not all were cut through so when you took one piece, it unrolled the next piece. It tasted good but it fell apart before you could get it into your mouth. It was sloppy! The lovely woman didn't understand the concept of the roll not being rolled tightly... she focused on the sticky rice being sticky. The tuna salad was unremarkable- lots of tuna but no flavor. I hope it was just an off night for Shogun. read more

This place has boats. Little boats that go around the chefs and deliver your sushi. Now it only delivers sushi if it's not too heavy. Most sushi rolls will not come by boat. The sushi is very good. I found the sashimi to be fresh and good size portions. The sushi rolls were also very good. One criticism is that they tend to make everything spicy. Now I like hot and spicy just as much as anyone but I found it a little counterintuitive to sushi where you want to actually taste the fish. Their non-spicy sushi rolls were very good. I recommend the shogun role. It was exceptional. Great place to take a date. Quaint and good quality. Also, did I mention they have boats? read more

In my experience they're one of the best sushi places in Albuquerque if not New Mexico everything's always fresh and good service

Stopped by here for a little dinner date with my partner. I believe this is the only restaurant in Albuquerque that has a "conveyor belt" type of sushi place. I am not certain about that, so don't take my word for it. They have little boats that are on water that go around the bar. We got an appetizer that was like popcorn chicken. When we got it, it was frozen on the inside! We told our waitress who was very apologetic about it and made sure that it wasn't. She brought it back and it was cooked fine, awesome! The sushi that we got were delicious. The person who was making the sushi explained which plate was what and had put them on the boat. We could barely hear him and he seemed so annoyed when we asked him to repeat himself. He didn't seem happy at all that we didn't get our plates right away. I checked in to Yelp and they had a free non alcoholic beverage coupon but the waitress told us that they haven't been using that for a long time now. She validated it for us anyways since there was the incident with the appetizer. Overall, the place is good but the sushi isn't the best in the town, in my opinion. read more
