    Veggie (3Pcs)
    Alyssa M.

    It's a conveyor belt Sushi place that is not super busy during lunch hour on a weekday, part of the tables/belt were not even available/operational. Service was kind of non existent (had to ask for water), and the vibe was widescreen TVs. Let's talk food. This was a mixed bag. On the bright side, they have the best veggie roll I've ever been served at any sushi place. They put a lot of effort into this thing, really above and beyond in terms of what it includes. The wasabi was decent and the ginger was properly gingery without that fake pink coloring in it. On the downside, the other sushi rolls I had were lacking in flavor, and the cucumber salad lacked that certain bright fresh taste and flavor I expect from cucumbers. As for what was available right off the belt, it was challenging to find a roll that didn't contain krab. Of course you could order off the menu but no one ever asked me what I wanted.

    This place surprised me. I had this place a few years back and forgot how it was so I decided to come back. At first, we sat down at a table and not a bar so we ordered off the menu. After a few guests left, we asked to be moved to the bar and the server happily moved our table. I have to see, this was probably the best sushi I've had in Eugene thus far and I've tried a lot of places here. The salmon was super fresh and the rolls were really tasty. My favorite item on the menu was the fried calamari as it was nice and crispy and the batter was flavorful. Overall for the price, I think this is a great spot if you are in the mood for sushi. One critique I would say is that their rolls and nigiri have a little too much rice to fish ratio but other than that, this place is great!

    Good service, very limited parking, food is basic/ok. Having lunch here, they premake too many of the warmer plates too early and too much, hence my sushi was cold and old when it should've been warm.

    More tasty takeout! Beef bento is my go to! The chicken bowl is my husbands! And then always extra sushi on the side.. not that we need more food cause both our plates are more than enough, but it's all SO GOOD!! Flavor is great, and portion size keeps us coming back! Now let's talk about ordering online / delivery.. I asked in notes for beef bento because I didn't see it on menu, but I have gotten it many times so I asked them to please sub that.. and they did! Wonderful service. I personally haven't sat in the restaurant in a few years as we usually do delivery or takeout but I hope to visit soon! Go try something from here you will just be surprised at how tasty it all is.

    This is a really nice place for sushi , and the concept is similar to other sushi restaurants-rotating plates of sushi dishes, plus you can order stuff as well. Good service. Not super ambient. But the food is good!

    Walked in at 11:03 and waited almost 15 minutes for an employee to "open" just to order my food, then almost 30 minutes to get 2 rolls and a katsu bowl even though I was the first order. The food wasnt even worth the wait. The portions were rediculous. 1 peice of fish on top of a roll? The raw fish was bland and warm from sitting next to a hot roll. Neither of the rolls looked like there was any care used to package them, and I feel like I should point out the lack of portions again. For $10 a roll, I would have been better off getting it at a grocery store! We used to come here pretty often when it was open for dine-in, and have had take out a couple times this year. It wasnt ever really bad, but this takes the cake. I will not return.

    Service is not great, and the train has went by many times with the same stuff for 20 minutes..

Nice interior, and was waited on quickly. My waitress brought water, and took my order for green tea. It came quickly, a full mug, and a lovely little cast iron teapot with a second serving. Good tea, too! I ordered the nine piece Hamachi sashimi (on a diet... no carbs, lol)! I was brought a six piece... and let the waitress know that. Told her the six piece would be fine for now. Lovely presentation, and the hamachi was beautiful. Fresh too, no fishy odor and the color was good. It was delicious. I would eat here again!

Today I went and got a 'Caterpillar' roll and 'Day Dreamer' roll. Let me break it down for you. Caterpillar roll: AMAZING 10/10. I love sushi and this is a go to roll for me NO MATTER WHAT. This roll is always good, but Sushi Pure makes it amazing, the taste, texture, and fulfillment it brings is unmatched. Day Dreamer roll: Very Solid 7.75/10. This roll had me in a chokehold for a second. That's neither bad or a good thing. The taste all around was very good, but the texture through me off (more personal problem, so many of you may love this). It was like soft, then crunchy, then popping due to the fish egg. All around I would recommend, but it may not be for everyone. The servers I've had both times have always been so kind, quick moving, and motivated so the service is unmatched as well. All in all, Sushi Pure is a must try with an amazing atmosphere!

    We don't *need* another Akira review, but our first time, so here goes:…read more The kampachi was buttery and beautiful. The best piece of nigiri I've had in Eugene or most any other place. Wasabi - like, real wasabi! I kept dabbing in my mouth never having tasted it before. It's both spicier on the front of your tongue and more luxurious on the back. I want more. The fried chicken bao was unfugging, unbelievably delicious. Can we say unfugging on Yelp? We got the Mrs V roll - spicy tuna topped with seared beef. Again, buttery with Rich beef and tuna that's actually spicy. Excellent roll This was an elegant, refined and completely delicious experience. We will definitely be back.

    For starters, their service, while not rude, is certainly not given with a smile. We were seated…read moreupstairs but were not told until after we were seated that we couldn't order anything from the "special menu" which is reserved only for people sitting downstairs. Our server didn't smile and seemed so impatient when we asked questions about the menu. He was going off the clock and flippantly said, if you need anything ask the other guy or the bartender, both of which seemed disinterested in filling in for him. When we asked about which tuna nigiri was which (several were on the plate) they had no clue and were not interested in finding out for us. Food wise, it was okay and I've certainly had better but the lackluster service tainted the entire night.

    There are no reservations at this restaurant, so it's first come first serve. Street parking was…read moreeasy to find, and we arrived around 7. The place was packed, but thankfully we were seated quite quickly with a 5-10 minute wait. The interior is cozy and welcoming. It's dimly lit with mood lighting on the tables. It felt lively since the tables were packed. We started by ordering the sake and shoyu flights and some fries with wasabi mayo while we explored the rest of their menu. We received the flights quickly. Both flights had 3 flavors and were tasty and fun to try. Each flight comes with a menu describing the flavor profile and how the drinks were made. The flavors of each flight were distinct and matched their descriptions. The fries with wasabi mayo were pretty basic fries. They were well seasoned, had a nice crunch, and the mayo had a subtle wasabi flavor without it being spicy. For our next round we ordered the salmon misoyaki, butternut squash, tofu kushiyaki, and steak kushiyaki. Unfortunately, our server forgot to bring our butternut squash, but we ended up being full with the rest of the food we ordered and just took it off our order. The salmon misoyaki was delicious - perfectly cooked, tender, and well seasoned. The mustard greens on the side added a nice sourness. The tofu kushiyaki was tender and flavorful. The steak kushiyaki was well-seasoned, but more well done than I preferred and a little tough. Next, we ordered the spinach goma ae and umeboshi unigiri. The spinach goma ae was such a pleasant surprise! It's a chilled spinach dish with a tamari/black sesame sauce that was refreshing mid-meal. Really good umami flavor! The umeboshi onigiri had the expected sharp salty/sour flavor that balanced well with the ratio of rice. Ended up dipping the umeboshi onigiri in the goma ae sauce to get every last drop. For dessert we ordered the basque cheesecake and créme brûlée. The cheesecake was just okay. The menu said there was sake and black sesame flavors, but apart from some black sesame dust on the plate we couldn't taste the sake/sesame. The texture was thick and not super smooth. It was a pretty heavy dessert and not very sweet. The créme brûlée was yummy. The custard was smooth and the crunchy caramelized sugar on top was a nice contrast in texture and flavor. The service itself was slow. We were waiting around 15 minutes between orders. Given, it was a busy night. However, we felt a bit forgotten as our server did forget to bring one of our dishes, we had to ask for our dessert menus twice, and we were accidentally served two basque cheesecakes instead of our order of cheesecake and créme brûlée. The staff were friendly, and quickly brought out the correct desserts at the end. I'd recommend ordering more dishes at once so you can enjoy more food in between orders. Would definitely come back again to try the rest of their menu. We wanted to try the Japanese sweet potato but they had sold out that night. The oysters, sashimi, and udon also looked quite good!

Because this is a service industry I left my tip based off her service, it's what happened after I left the restaurant that has me . As I was pulling out of my parking space we have a man approach us and knock on our window, we thought we left something so we rolled our window down. His words were, leaving a 2$ tip on a 70$ bill is disrespectful. He then went on to say more things. I pulled back in my spot and went inside to find a manager. Next to the manager was my waitress. I said do you know why you got 2$ and did she know I was just confronted in the parking lot by another employee. She acted like she had know idea, told me it was the bus boy. I then turned too the manager to tell him I was verbally attacked by one of his employees based off my tip, that should have been very shocking too him, it was not, he said I will look into it. Didn't bother to ask for my phone number or anything. I still cannot believe this even happened. Izumi will never get my business ever again!!
