Really solid sushi and AWESOME lunch and dinner specials. The nigiri was fresh and well-done, and the rolls are tasty and creative. Most sushi here in Idaho is pretty rough, but this place is officially going in the rotation! read more

My first time at Shogun Sushi was utterly embarrassing. I picked the All-You-Can-Eat (AYCE) option and ordered way too much sushi. To make things worse, the restaurant had a Leftover Rule which required me to pay an additional $40 ($5 per four pieces of leftover sushi) on top of the $26 AYCE fee. I was getting punished for my gluttony. And deservedly so! However, the server talked to her manager about my situation, and they both decided that I was only a hungry soul who had just come from playing three hours of volleyball, and that I had no bad intentions. Instead of paying $40 for my leftover, I was asked to pay only $20. I got to take my sizable leftover home, of course. Needless to say, I had to give the server a generous tip. Lesson learned: Don't be a glutton when it comes to AYCE! Lol. Shogun Sushi is located in Southeast Boise. I've been there a few more times after my humiliating experience and have been smarter with my choices. Most recently, I skipped AYCE and ordered pork teriyaki. It was a little bland, in my opinion. But props to them for being generous with the veggies. I am a huge fan of their baked salmon. It's my go-to sushi.  I'm giving this place four stars because while food is decent, the sushi is rice-heavy. Not a lot of seafood or meat. It's mostly rice. Staff was pretty friendly on all occasions. Restaurant is tiny. Only 10 or so tables. Bathroom was decently clean. Just a final note about Shogun Sushi's Leftover Rule. It states, "More than 3 pieces left per table will be subject to additional charge." The additional charge is $5 per four pieces of leftover sushi. Pace yourself if you're doing AYCE. Don't be like me. :) read more

Pros: Waitstaff are friendly, music is nice, safe environment Cons: Wasabi could be better, Kimchi soup could be significantly improved instead of putting in leftover cabbage ends and not the actual cabbage itself which is probably used for salads. Green tea was a tea bag and water was too hot. Fish is going to be frozen but that's understandable. Thought the ramen could be a lot better and not just a leftover soup . read more

The food is good - not my favorite sushi but it is more affordable than other places. The inside of the restaurant is small and tight.

Must have been an off night. Usually very good sushi and meals here. Tonight we ordered a set menu of 3 rolls and 3 appetizers to go along with a grilled teriyaki chicken plate for pick up to bring home and watch the Denver / Seattle football game. Bland bland and blah! The three DIFFERENT rolls were tasteless and covered with the same sauce! Unusual to say the least. The rice was overcooked and watery causing the rolls to fall apart when you tried to pick them up. Never was able to get them to the soy sauce! . Egg rolls were burnt and the jalapeño poppers were so hot we couldn't swallow them. Ah-Seeds were still in them. Chicken dish was over cooked and tasteless. Did I mention everything was bland and tasteless? I guess there is a first time for everything including a bad night at our favorite sushi restaurant. After all we did order right at 5 pm so maybe we caught them before they were able to get "cooking"????? (Yes pun intended) Understand restaurants are facing challenges these days so we will give it another go before looking elsewhere as prior visits had been delightful and delicious. How was everyone else's dining experience on 9/12? read more

I mean-it's sushi. Nothing about this restaurant stood out to me. Good or bad. The rice wasn't hard, there wasn't too much sauce on my roll, etc. But I also don't recall my server, sushi chef or the flavor. I didn't take anything with me, meaning I ate it all, but I also didn't call my daughter and show her where I was like I do if a place is fantastic. Since I didn't get dysentery, I decided it's worth 4 stars. But if I'm eating on total dining experience, I give it a 3 because it's so immemorable.‍ read more

Best sushi in town! Every time I come here everything is made perfectly with great service. Made my birthday extra special!

The food and service was amazing! First time coming and didn't disappoint. Is now one of my favorite sushi places to go to in Boise.

Bottom Line Up Front: Great Sushi, Great Service, at a Great Price. I'm a huge fan of sushi, and have eaten at almost every sushi place in Boise since I moved here two years ago, but this place keeps me coming back! The sushi speaks for itself, as the fish is as fresh as you can get in Boise. The manager and chefs are constantly challenging themselves to push the boundaries of flavor to bring the very best to your plate! So make sure you give the special a try when you get there! But the food isn't the only thing that's special about this place. The service is second to none, and I'm not just talking about speed! I was stunned as the servers and managers actually remembered me and followed up on conversations we had had a few weeks ago! But if you are more of an introvert don't let that dissuade you as it seems they are very keen at reading a table. If great service and great food doesn't tickle your fancy, rest assured the price will! The "Set Menu" is essentially all you can eat prices, but without the pressure of trying to gorge yourself "trying to get your money's worth". At the end of the day, I believe this is the top spot in Boise for all of your sushi needs. Whether you're dining in or taking out you can expect quality sushi at a fantastic price! So go say hello to the Shogun family! read more

BEST sushi in Boise. Originally being from the west coast, I am somewhat of a sushi snob. Shogun has fresh fish and unique flavors for their rolls! We make that our weekly date spot! read more

I like this restaurant, I only wish they had more seating. The booths were reserved for four people, so we had to sit at a table in the middle of everything and it did diminish the experience a star for me. We started with an Octopus Salad. It was very good and a nice sized portion. Our next selection was a Spider roll and eel on the side. It was fresh and well prepared. They have an option of an All You Can Eat menu, but it's not my style, so I can't speak to this. As this restaurant is close and I love well prepared sushi, I will be back, maybe early so I can get a coveted booth. So much easier than being in the traffic way. read more

My husband and I are sushi lovers and this is the best sushi we have had in Boise! The bronco and miyako rolls are the BEST! Wish there was more than one location! read more

Officially my go to sushi restaurant. I will drive 30 minutes to town just to eat here. Everyone is so friendly and the sushi has always been consistent! read more

This place is amazing as well as very clean! I went for lunch and it was busy and I sat at the bar and my food was outstanding and I didn't wait long. My meal was brought out to me before I could even finish my soup. As a truck driver my walk was well worth it! The head chef and I talked while he was making rolls and when I was getting ready to leave he Blessed me to go bag that had extra rolls that he had made. It was outstanding! Definitely recommend this place if you are looking to have some excellent sushi or Binto box meal!! read more

My husband and I came to shogun sushi for a date night and we truly had a great experience! The service was very quick, and everyone was very friendly. We ordered a few different rolls to share and each one was delicious. Will definitely be back! read more

I look forward to coming here every time I get to Boise. It's basically my first stop. I almost always order the Cherry Blossom roll and it never, ever disappoints. We've also ordered the Rainbow Roll, the Garlic Shrimp, the Diablo, and several others. They're all great. They have also weathered the COVID climate with grace and ease. I always feel safe and clean when I'm there. Additionally, their takeout process is easy and streamlined. read more

I picked up a spicy tuna roll and one order of smoked salmon nigiri, it was $15.90 and I gave $20 and had them keep the change. I'm really disappointed with the meal. The roll is small and barely has any tuna and both pieces of nigiri were tiny. read more

Just good all around! Food, service and environment. I really enjoyed it plus they have great dinner specials.

Incredibly yummy tempura, hand rolls and sushi at a great price plus friendly service and very helpful explaining all the combo options.

Look forward to this place every time I visit Boise. I always get the all you can eat, I just wish I had more room in my stomach. The sushi tastes very fresh. The appetizers are even included in the dinner AYCE. If you're in the area definitely give this place a try. I'm pretty sure you'll be back. read more

Very friendly greeting and service! A lot of different selections for rolls, and decent pricing!

there wasn't really any salmon, avocado or CC in the crispy Philadelphia rolls. it was all rice. I mean A LOT of rice and not much else. it wasn't worth eating or buying. pretty disappointing. they also put the crisp rolls in the same box, as the alaskan rolls. The salmon from the alaskan rolls were sweaty, steam cooked, and gross. paid $40 bucks for take out for multiple people, and it disappointed all of us. wish they would have packaged the hot rolls in a different container. would not recommend for take out or dinner. just lunch. read more

Shogun Sushi - got take out and it was not worth it. suppose to have salmon, but got smaller than a sliver of salmon. disappointing. - Sushi Bars Near Me - Boise, Idaho

We went here for lunch during the week. It was wonderful! Service was excellent! Jalapeño poppers were yummy! We got the cherry blossom roll and it too was good! read more

Everything was fresh, and well prepared. The tuna sushimi was not glued to rice well, but very tasty. The rice ball it was on was a bit too small, but overall yummy. Recommend everything, as not one thing was unfresh. The only reason I did not give a 5 star is they missed part of my order... Know I am being picky, but alas, I must be honest. For Boisie, ID - I would say the food was comparable to california and impressive! read more

While visiting Boise I was recommended to check out Shogun Sushi and I was not disappointed. We went with the set menu option that allows you to build your own combo. The must tries; Saipan roll, cherry blossom roll, red dragon roll, all nigiri (trust me), salmon skin salad, seared tuna salad, cucumber salad, jalapeño poppers, gyoza and bulgogi bowl. The staff is extremely nice. The restaurant is beautiful and clean with a great vibe. I'll definitely be returning to Shogun when I'm in Boise. read more

My favorite sushi joint in Boise bar none. I have to get the AYCE bc it's just too hard to choose one or two things and impossible to stop. They also include appetizers as a part of the meal. There is also quite a wide variety of choices. I always have to start with that seared Ahi salad because it is so amazing! It is a little spicy so if you don't like spicy please know that. Their jalapeno poppers are to die for as well. And I love tempura any way I can get it, and they do it so well. They just do everything so well. As far as rolls go my favorites are the Ichiban Crystal crunch, and cherry blossom. But there are so many really really spectacular rolls here. The place is clean, it is a little small and I wish they had a location closer to the west side so that the rest of us don't have to drive quite so far to come visit. 26 bucks for the dinner price isn't bad really when you consider how much Sushi some of us can eat lol. read more

Seriously AMAZING sushi! My husband and I are sushi snobs but this place has a great selection and freshness! Also, their hot tea was just perfect with the sushi! We did the lunch deal and didn't regret it! read more

Delicious sushi and a huge selection of speciality rolls, Raman, and great apps. Friendly staff and a good atmosphere. We got the Thai Peanut role and Miyako roll and they were phenomenal. Prices are also very reasonable - especially the lunch specials! Highly recommend this place! read more

We had a lot of fun here. They don't do all-you- can-eat sushi here. But for $28, they do a set menu and it is a huge amount of food. We both needed to-go boxes. Our sushi tasted amazing! We are looking forward to coming back. read more

Best sushi spot in the boise area! The freshest seafood and best service. 10/10 will be back again.

Loved this place! There's a lot of sushi out there and I live in the Seattle area so there are a lot of options here. Who knew there would be a place better than the majority of the places we have here in Boise? I was driving back from UT and I was talking on the phone with one of my eating buddies as I drove through ID. I mentioned that I was jonesing for some sushi after a week in UT and WY. He is a guy who travels a lot for business and he immediately told me to try this place. I went in with marginal expectations. I have a place I love at home and no one anywhere has ever come close to it. This place nailed it. The prices were reasonable for sushi and the food was fresh and delicious. I loved the garlic shrimp roll and kind of want one right now. I tried a bunch of different items and they were all awesome. I particularly enjoyed the cheesy corn, which seemed very out of place at a sushi bar but was so good that I didn't spend much time thinking about whether or not it belonged on the menu. I think it's a safe bet that I'll eat here every time I roll through Boise. Note to my cousins who live there and love sushi; this is our go-to place now! read more

They call their food sushi? It should be called RICE ROLLS!!! Each contains TONS of RICE!!! Server said if you're diabetic you shouldn't eat SUSHI, so does that mean people in Japan who happen to be diabetic don't eat sushi??? This is a low blow to people who are watching their rice intake and still wants to eat "REAL SUSHI"!!! read more

Shogun Sushi - Too much rice!!! - Sushi Bars Near Me - Boise, Idaho

Came here recently to try it and out and all three of us really enjoyed our meal. We went for an early dinner to avoid the crowds and paid dinner price for the all you can eat sushi. It was around $25 and well worth it. As for the restaurant in itself, it was a bit "cozy" but very clean. We were helped by a very nice waitress who attended to our every need. She was very attentive and provide excellent service. In one of the reviews, they mention the seared tuna salad and how they could eat that daily. I would have to agree. Only on the dinner all you can eat option can you have the seared ahi salad. It was excellent. It had a great salad dressing and the tuna was very fresh. The sushi was very well done as well including fresh fish and creative combos. Their all you can eat also included appetizers which were really good. All in all, I would definitely come back. I do have to mention that the seared ahi salad makes this review lean towards excellence. Since it is not included in the all you can eat lunch, I probably would only come back to pay their dinner prices so that I could indulge on their salad. We are planning on going back next week to see if our experience is consistent with our first visit. read more

My new favorite sushi place in Boise. They do nigri right! Lots of fish that covers all of the rice. My last favorite place started over filling and use the rice as a stuffer and less fish. I sat at the bar and it was a pleasant experience. The sushi chefs are great. The saki was also very good and I tried some I have never had before. Rolls were great and they have an all you can eat special. It is a bit far out from where I live but wayyyyy worth it. I should have taken more pics but like I said, I was at the bar and taking pics felt awkward. LOL read more

Best Sushi in the Treasure Valley, family owned and operated. The staff is friendly and the food is amazing. The family is from Saipan and Korea, they are some of the kindest people you will meet. The Shogun roll is my favorite, but I haven't had a bad roll yet. My family has picky eaters and ordered some of the Korean barbecue entrees, no complaints and cleared plates. Enjoy the food and support a local family restaurant during these difficult times! Let you sushi roll! read more

Service: great! The server was extremely friendly and the food came out pretty quick. Ramen: it's more like a jazzed up top ramen rather than Japanese ramen, but I guess what should I have expected, I'm in Boise . Sushi: they were ok. I'm from LA, so obviously I've had many options for sushi. Not sure how they do it here in Idaho, but shush i is not their thing for sure. Overall: I think it's a great pace for food. It's just not the best. Four stars is for the service and definitely not the food. read more

Very impressed!! The sushi is fresh and well made! There is a lunch and dinner menu. The Shogun roll was so good my husband ordered a second one! My husband LOVES sushi and tends to only like certain places. We live in Mountain Home and drove out to try this place. Absolutely worth it! We will definitely be back!! read more
