    I tend to come here for the happy hour sushi prices from 5p-7p. Nothing phenomenal in terms of sushi, but it is a good compromise for the prices. Tuna nigiri wasn't is fresh as it has been, but I've noticed raw nigiri can be hit or miss here but still tasted good enough There usually only tends to be one waiter working, even on a Thursday at 6pm. The man had hustle though and was super nice so he didn't go unnoticed It's never too loud in here, staff always says hi when you walk in, and there's plenty of seating as well

    We love Sushi Avenue!! The rolls are flavorful and fresh, and the speciality rolls on the menu are so creative and unique. Seriously some of the best flavor combinations in Tampa. The sushi chef/owner is super friendly and it is a casual, comfortable environment to grab some awesome sushi!

    Our daughter who lives in Tampa eats here frequently and kept telling us how delicious the sushi was. Boy was she right! We came with a party of 6 and were quickly sat at a high top table. Our 2 waitresses were amazing! They answered all of our questions, frequently checked on our party, and were quite friendly. For my drink I tried a Peach Sake that was a winner. Perfect if you like sweet white wines. We started off with appetizers: Edamame and Geso a Japanese style calamari. The edamame's were tasty and the Geso delish. Not greasy at all! A great dish to start off with. For our main dish we tried quite a few different sushi rolls and all were amazing! I would dare say some of the best sushi we've had. As a matter of fact, there wasn't a single roll we didn't finish or did not enjoy. As a matter of fact, we even asked for a few more additional pieces bc they were that good! We had the Eskimo Roll, Krab Roll w/o cucumber, Spicy Roll, Green Menace and Spider Roll. For dessert we had the fried Oreo which was just okay. Not something I'd order again. I rather eat more sushi and skip dessert lol. The prices are amazing for the quality and quantity of sushi you get. FYI- Gratuity is included for parties of 6 or more. I can't wait to be back in Tampa so I can try some more of their sushi!

    Good sushi option located by USFs main campus in north Tampa. We ordered the crab Rangoon to start, they were unfortunately overcooked but the flavor was pretty good. I had the special Sushi lunch, 5 pieces of nigiri sushi: salmon, tuna, white fish, krab, shrimp and a California roll with choice of Miso soup or ginger salad. The sushi was pretty good, I've had better but overall it definitely filled me up. Nice decor and friendly service. They have lunch specials 1130-2:30 Tuesday to Friday and happy hour 5-7 with reduced price sushi rolls and drink specials. Located in a shopping center, they have plenty of parking available.

    Happy hour rolls!

She chose this location as it's her "favorite" place to go for sushi. They don't take reservations, but you can do call ahead. Luckily, she got there early and got us a table. They were packed shortly after we arrived -- on an early Saturday night. My husband got a selection of sushi and sashimi -- choosing each by the fish/option he wanted. He said it was very fresh. I started with their kani salad. I'd asked the server how spicy it was and she said "not too". Sadly, it was a bit too peppery for me to totally enjoy. I shared some with my husband. There was a nice mix of cucumber and krab in it. After the salad, I had their lobster roll. It was tempura lobster with lettuce, cucumber, and avocado. On top was some eel sauce. It was very good. My friend had tuna tataki stack. There were three types of caviar (fish eggs) on top of avocado. And then sushi tuna in the middle and a layer of avocado on the bottom. It's her "go to" dish. She said it was delicious. We weren't rushed. We enjoyed our food and some good conversation. But as we realized there were a lot of folks waiting for a table, we decided it was time to leave. I might have even asked about dessert.

These were served together on a black plate. We also added the red dragon roll and the spider roll, which arrived on a white boat plate. We started the meal with edamame and chicken karaage. The presentation was clean, and the rolls provided a solid portion size for a lunch portion. The service was good and attentive throughout our visit. Our waitress was highly informative. She took the time to explain the lunch specials and offered her top menu picks to help us decide. She checked in on the table the right amount of times to ensure we had everything we needed without hovering. The dining room is small and cozy. The space features Japanese-inspired decor, mural walls, booth seating, and low lighting. This gives it more character than a standard strip-center restaurant. Parking is easy. There is an ample parking lot located on the side and behind the building.

She runs a consistently welcoming operation, and that level of care shows in every visit.

The sushi chef is highly skilled, and the quality is evident. The sashimi is cut thick, incredibly fresh, and truly melts in your mouth. A few standouts: the Firetail Jalapeño with fresh yellowtail is a must-order every time. My husband, without hesitation, always orders the Volcano--he considers it the best. After three decades, the consistency, quality, and service are exactly why we keep coming back.

The Hawaii Roll is raw with tuna, salmon, shrimp tempura, crunch, avocado, and mango and it is wrapped in soy paper and topped with spicy mayo and wasabi sauce. This was $18.50. I've never had mango in a sushi roll and this was fantastic! I wasn't sure about it at first but the variety of fish and the crunch with the sweetness of the mayo and the sauces was pure perfection! The Miyazaki Roll is smoked salmon, krab meat, and cream cheese. It is deep fried and topped with eel sauce. This was $10.95. Loved this! It was not overly breaded and definitely not oily. So good!! My meal also came with a choice of soup or salad. Naturally I picked the miso soup, which was great! They had a lot of options and variety!

They were super helpful when I arrived and asked if I wanted any sauces before I left. I ordered two sushi rolls, the shumai, and chicken hibachi dinner. The shumai were delicious and flavorful and were devoured in one sitting. The spicy Manhattan roll was good but very large so difficult to eat in one bite. Very good with eel sauce. The rainbow roll was also good. Seemed fresh. Clear soup was flavorful. The salad was a bit disappointing. Looks like just lettuce, sliced cucumber, and dressing. I have not tried the dressing yet as I was too full. I am saving the chicken hibachi dinner for day 2 but did have a bite of everything. Did not seem overly flavorful so I will be adding some soy sauce to it when eaten. Might also add some veggies or something to the fried rice. Just very plain. Overall it was good and I appreciated being able to order to go and eat at home.

We were actually on our way to a different Chinese buffet when we accidentally stumbled into AJISAI Hibachi Buffet... and let me tell you, sometimes getting lost is the best thing that can happen!

Basically, if you leave hungry, that's a personal decision. Now, I walked in hungrier than a hostage... and my daughter? Let's just say she activated her Big Back Scholarship.

Overall, I'd still go back when I'm craving AYCE sushi with friends...just maybe with slightly tempered expectations.
