Sushi Land - Finished the best sushi of my life - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

I started frequenting Sushi Land when Jay first opened the place years ago, while I was attending Villanova (2005-2009 range). Back then, he would host all-you-can-eat sushi nights every once in a while and hang pictures of his college customers on the wall near the entrance. It was always an awesome experience back then and it still is today. Fast forward to 2025 and the Lion King roll is still my favorite sushi roll ever. I stayed in the area after college, and when I really want to treat myself, I get two Lion King rolls for takeout. They're always incredibly good. I love Sushi Land! read more

I worked temporarily in Conshohocken and used a food delivery app to order from this place. Decided to get the "lion king" and a couple more rolls. I have to confess I was initially confused by the lion king's appearance due to being a hot "baked" roll - I had completely missed that part but was down to try it. This roll is one of the best and most unique flavors I've ever had. Even to this day, I still remember the taste and wish I could go back to order it again. Unfortunately, I live far from PA, but if you are near, love sushi, and like to try new things, I encourage you to get it. ~ Trabajé temporalmente en Conshohocken y usé una aplicación de entrega de comida para ordenar de este lugar. Decidí ordenar el "rey león" y un par de rollos más. Debo confesar que inicialmente me confundió la apariencia del rey león debido a que era un rollo caliente "horneado", pero estaba dispuesta a probarlo. Este rollo es uno de los mejores y más únicos sabores que he probado. Incluso hasta el día de hoy, aún recuerdo el sabor y desearía volver a pedirlo nuevamente. Desafortunadamente, vivo lejos de PA, pero si estás cerca, amas el sushi y te gusta probar cosas nuevas, te animo a que lo hagas. read more

Sushi land, or for me, Teriyaki land, as I do not do seafood willingly, has a solid teriyaki dish. This is one of my rotating teriyaki places in the area. I don't have a regular place near home as none of my local places have ginger dressing that floats my boat. All of them do a good Teriyaki tho. The dressing here is actually my least favorite, which makes sense because it isn't even ginger dressing, I'm not sure what it is just that I don't like it on my salad. I'm sure YMMV. The chicken is always tender and juicy. I do wish it was served on more vegetables like onions\snap peas vs a bed of lettuce, but it is well packaged to go with a nice portion of rice\salad and chicken of course. Everyone is masked up and they have hand sanitizer on the counter. read more

Got takeout today, the George Roll and Jessica Roll, they were delicious! Highly recommend

Suuuuuuper solid! If you're near on the main line I would definitely recommend swinging by to grab some sushi and enjoying it in a park. One of the only places around that offers Hwe Dup Bap which is easily one of my favorite Korean dishes. The dressing for the salad was ON POINT! I would buy bottles of it if I could. Maybe I can. The rice was cooked perfectly. The rolls were fun! I tried a fermented plum and mint roll, and that was surprisingly delicious. I didn't really know what to expect but it was great. I would absolutely recommend the Bryn Mawr roll and the Halloween roll! I also got miso soup, a side salad and some fried calamari. A little sad because by the time I got home some of the sushi was not as cold as I would've liked and the calamari was a little soft. I totally understand that's a time thing and a container thing. It was still really tasty. The inside of the restaurant was cute and homey. The staff was all super friendly and greeted me when I came in for my order a little early. I asked about the hats they wear because they're and they sold me one. I'm pretty excited to wear it around. TLDR: This place is really worth it. Great food. Great people. Affordable. read more

sushiland is the best. i loved it since i was a college student in town. i lived in japan for many years and still think about sushiland when i was in japan. i came back for a visit and still loved it after more than 10 years! i am so glad that it is still open and my son is also a big fan now. read more

One of our favorite places in Bryn Mawr. The food was absolutely spectacular and our server was absolutely delightful. they had something new on the menu and the enthusiasm of our server convinced us to try it and she was absolutely spot on! We also got the Bryn Mawr roll, because we were there to drop our youngest off at Bryn Mawr for freshman year. We ended up ordering two rounds of rolls and man do I wish I had room for more because they were ALL fantastic, but I am still drooling over that Bryn Mawr roll. It's not the most "exciting" but it was just PERFECT. I really can't wait to go visit my kid and go to Sushi Land again!!! read more

I ate here for dinner with a friend one night. I had some sushi rolls and a seaweed salad. Everything was delicious and I can't wait to go back! read more

I was pleasantly surprised with this little hidden gem. Quality sushi with friendly staff in a comfortable setting. Food- Everything we had from salad to apps and sushi were fresh good quality and packed with flavor. Started with a couple house salads which had very fresh iceberg lettuce and a amazing peanut dressing that was so addictive. Fried calamari rings had perfect amount of breading and the calamari wasn't chewy at all. Sushi was very good fresh fish and creative specialty rolls no complaints whatsoever! Ambiance- Trying to impress a first date this is not your spot. Very clean comfortable setting but it is a small restaurant and has a relaxing setting. You won't be getting a fancy sushi boat here. There is nothing upscale about this place but it does serve high quality food. read more

Sushi Land - Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

This is my favorite place to get sushi in Bryn Mawr! I've been coming here for so many years, and I always love it! The service is fast and friendly. It's BYOB so we usually bring some wine. I usually get an eel avocado roll, and I like the dragon roll, rainbow roll, and lion king roll. We also often get bento boxes. This time, they were having a summer special for $1 per piece of salmon nigiri, so we got a few orders of those and the salmon tasted amazing! I want to go back again soon just for that special. They also have BBQ pork and bulgogi entrees which I've gotten in the past and like. read more

Sushi Land, a suburban BYOB, serves sushi and other kinds of Japanese cuisine - we shared a bowl of Agedashi tofu which was interesting. It's a clean, modest-sized venue that can handle about 40 diners. The decor is simple and appropriately Japanese-themed. While interaction with our servers was kept to a minimum, service was friendly when we dealt with them. A few of us dined here this past weekend. I went for the Villanova roll ($8.50), made of spicy tuna, crunch, unagi, and tobiko goodness, and the Cliff House roll ($9.50), with spicy crabmeat, shrimp tempura, salmon, avocado, and tobiko. Both rolls were pleasantly fresh, with a crispy consistency that was fun to bite into, and I loved their tangy, mildly spicy flavors. (Our server told us the chef made the rolls extra attractive because he saw me taking photos!) We all had sushi rolls, and all enjoyed them. Don't feel like driving downtown for Zento's sushilicious creations? Sushi Land will quell any suburbanite's sushi urges, and for a reasonable amount of money. Worth a try! read more

This place is soooooo good. I enjoy every visit and appreciate the affordable prices. I can't recommend enough!!!

We ordered the Mexican Roll, Halloween Roll, and Dynamite Roll. They all tasted the same; they tasted like nothing. They were bland and mushy. The only saving part was one had some crunch bits for a texture element. My bf also got the Miso soup which was just okay. I'm not sure if this was a because it was a delivery, so we will probably give them another go eventually for the eat in option. Will not be doing a to go again though. read more

Sushi Land is a nice little sushi place on the main line. The space is quaint and the staff is friendly. My friend and I came back to the area to visit the college we graduated from and had to go back to Sushiland for nostalgia sake. We split ika ring (fried squid) and chicken tempura appetizers. The tempura batter is very light, my friend thought it needed more seasoning but I liked the simplicity of the dishes. My friend got a bento box with goyza which she thought was delicious and a California roll with cream cheese added (per her request). I ordered the Eagle Roll which was honestly the reason why we came back after all these years. Its a very simple roll - a California roll with salmon on top and lemon slices. So simple but so good! I've yet to see it on any other menu at a sushi restaurant. I definitely recommend it. The only downside was that the sushi rolls were made way before the appetizers were ready so they were sitting at the sushi making station waiting for us to be ready for them. You know because the sushi is made at a little counter in the dining room, which is a fun thing to watch. Since the lemon was sitting so long it was very strong but still good. read more

Sushi Land - Ika ring - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

They've recently upped their prices at this place for sure. I used to come here all the time and then after moving away and coming back to visit I was disappointed to see that some of my favorite rolls were more expensive than I left them. This place is definitely out dated, but the food itself is pretty good. I ordered the summer lover roll. I also love that they have plenty of options for vegetarian rolls Incase you don't want the raw fish. This visit in particular I was disappointed with how long the food took the come out. The sushi we ordered did not need to be cooked and the restaurant was not crowded but it still took a little over 20 minutes to get our food. I will probably still come back to this place because it is slightly cheaper than surrounding restaurants and the sushi always hits the spot. Pro tip - it's BYOB so bring your favorite bottle of wine! read more

Sushi lands food was very tasty. The ambiance is transitionally a Japanese restaurant. The family friendly service they have is very cozy.

Perfect local sushi spot. They have a great selection of rolls and everything tasted really fresh. I loved their green salad dressing. It wasn't the standard ginger dressing - instead it is creamy and peanuty. Great spot for a casual dinner or for take out. read more

Sushi Land - Spider roll, Jessica roll, George roll, pink lady roll - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

Hey what should I say, this place is in the middle of Bryn Mawr, BYOB and always quite packed. Prices are not so cheap especially for average supermarket sushi and no atmosphere. But service is fun and once in a while ok. I had the sashimi platter that comes with a miso soup and a green house salad; all Ok and quite priced for 21$. No need to praise it but also no need to give a bad rating; it is just ok so three stars read more

I just got off work today and I was craving sushi, I have a regular place I go to that has amazing fresh sushi that is such of quality but I'm so disheartened from this sushi place. The sushi was lacking flavor and was just not fresh tasting. It was really disappointing especially after spending $30. The best thing I got was the kani salad and it wasn't even all that. The best thing about this place is the main lady she is sweet and very caring and nice. When I walked in the place was empty and hot and I was hoping the food would not resemble but it did. Won't be eating here again sadly read more

Sushi Land - a plate of sushi and chopsticks - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

Sushi Land is your typical cheap sushi joint, really only suitable for college kids looking to eat on a budget. I would not come again. Our party of 5 was seated immediately. Staff was very friendly. I got the chirashi bowl -- white tuna was discolored and tasted strange; salmon was good; tuna didn't blow my mind. Overall, not impressed and it didn't hit the spot. I just felt "meh" and even gross after I finished. I liked their miso soup and salad with delicious sesame dressing though. I also tried the green tea tempura ice cream, which was fine but not mind-blowing. I love green tea ice cream, but I found the tempura too chewy and not crispy enough. read more

One thing I've learned since returning to the Main Line is that good reasonably priced sushi restaurants and BYOBs are two things that can be fairly hard to come by. But fortunately I've found that Sushi Land provides an equal amount of both and does it well. While some of the special rolls may have come across as being a little too gimmicky, especially the Angry Bird which featured chicken and cheese done spicy sushi style (http://img.izismile.com/img/img4/20110729/640/hilarious_do_not_want_images_640_02.jpg). But there were also a plentiful amount of winners like the Honeymoon of spicy yellowtail and & eel; and the Halloween combo of spicy crab, tuna, and salmon. the regular rolls were reasonably priced and easy to mix and match; as I found out when I got my plentiful share of spicy crab, tuna, and salmon crunch rolls. Bust there's also a huge selection of sushi & sashimi dishes, and a number of noodle dishes to satisfy those weirded out by sushi. Add in an even better priced lunch menu, apps like gyoza and agedashi tofu, an ever refilling pot of tea, and solid service, and you have one of the better sushi destinations in suburbia. read more

An excellent sushi experience!! Bring your own alcohol. The sweetest serving staff and excellent sushi!! read more

I was in the area, and started craving sushi for lunch this weekend. I stopped in to get a quick fix. I go for maki rolls, mostly spicy tuna, spicy salmon, and combination rolls with avocado. What this place puts out is among the better rolls I've had in the area. Fish freshness was on point. I'd come back here happily and recommend it to anyone. I was mildly disappointed in one thing. I saw a three roll special for $12.95 listed, but I found out that one of the rolls was a simple cucumber roll. The sushi places I frequent most often, farther up the main line in Paoli and Frazer, tend to offer three fish maki rolls in their specials for a similar price. It wasn't enough of a disappointment to give them a bad review by any means. I enjoyed what I did order very much. But it was enough for me to not give them 5 stars. Just a personal preference. read more

Sushi Land is your local cheap, affordable, easy take out sushi. If you want quality- fresh from the sea or New York Nobu sushi, this isn't the place for you. However, if you had a long day and need a quick pick me up, Sushi Land is the place to go! The angry bird roll is very different because it has chicken in it, but it's worth a try! If you want to play it safe, but want a special roll, the " Spice Girlz" or " Pink Lady Roll" are really good! read more

Pros- have lots of fun and unique sushi options for the adventurous and sushi lovers Cons- I'm not a very adventurous sushi eater and their veggie sushi was simply mediocre. Yumminess: 8/10 Instagrammability: 10/10 Ambiance: casual read more

Pretty good food, very good service, byob. Had a very nice girls night. Parking was easy around the corner.

Husband and I stopped for a quick lunch here at Sushi Land. Not too crowded at all and a waitress let us choose where we'd like to sit. I'm not as adventurous as Husband when it comes to sushi so anything I don't recognize I don't order. We both ordered Bento boxes which comes with miso soup and salad. I never like miso soup but I keep thinking eventually I'll find one somewhere - someday - that I enjoy. Found it! I really loved their miso soup! The actually boxes are huge chunky boxes that have normal size portions that look tiny in these plates. The salad was just iceberg lettuce and a couple of slivers of cucumber saturated with a sesame/mayo type dressing that was very tasty. Salad could be better if it had more than iceberg lettuce and cucumber. How about adding a bit of cabbage/carrot/scallion? I ordered teriyaki shrimp & California roll. The teriyaki shrimp had good flavor BUT how about cleaning the shrimp? It's gross to see that dirty vein in a shrimp. The California roll was - eh - had better at the local grocery store. Husband had the sashimi - tuna & salmon. He loved the tuna but didn't like the way the salmon tasted and only had a bite. He had the chicken teriyaki and agreed it had good flavor. One thing we both noticed was that the seafood looked good - seemed fresh - it was kind of warm. The waitress was very attentive and sweet. Don't ask for water because it doesn't taste like its filtered at all - it was gross. If we get a craving for sushi again we'll come back and try some of the other items. read more

Went here on a Friday night with friends and it was packed, but we called about ten minutes ahead of time, and they managed to save us a table for 6. It's BYOB, and they even brought us some ice to cool our wine. The service was incredibly fast and our waiter was really understanding when some of us needed more time to look at the menu. I wasn't that hungry and just got a yellowtail scallion roll, but it was so good and I shared some pork gyoza with my table and that was a solid choice as well. Overall: great prices for what you're getting and BYOB is a huge plus. read more

This is my favorite place to get Sushi on the mainline! The prices can't be beat for their quality and this is coming from a NYer who has eaten at their fair share of sushi places with ranging prices. I have tried almost everything on the menu and you really can't go wrong. I particularly recommend the spicy sashimi salad, whe du bop, bento boxes, and any of their special rolls. Jae (the owner) is very accommodating and the chefs work hard to get your order right! read more

Sushi Land is gross. The fish is not fresh, or at least it didn't smell or taste fresh. It kind of felt like when you get sushi to go from a grocery store and it's been in the plastic container for a while. The reason sushi is expensive is because sushi grade fish is expensive. I do not trust cheap sushi. And this place proved me right. read more

Small place with great food. We ordered some rolls, udon noodle soup, nagimaki, and miso soup. The nagimaki is SO cheap and delicious compared to places we've had in the past. We'll definitely go back next time and try out their Korean dishes. read more

Sushi land is hands down the best sushi I have ever had. I will be the first to admit I am not a huge sushi fan, and I usually go for the cooked items (I know, I know). But sushi land will change your mind about that if you are like me. You absolutely cannot beat the prices here for the quality of fresh sushi. This place is BYO, and the atmosphere is not amazing (don't be deterred by the outside), but the sushi makes up for that in every way. In college, I would get take out from here at least 3x per week and I still go back every few months for the amazing sushi. A MUST TRY, you won't be sorry! My ultimate favorite is the French kiss roll- the crab mix in this is out of this world. Oh and another thing- they can do sushi with brown rice!! 10/10 recommend! read more

Sushi Land - French Kiss Roll with brown rice and without tuna - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

Main line sushi is a hit or miss proposition. Some places start out ok, but they get worse and don't last a year for whatever reason. Sushi Land has been here for years, so they must be doing something right. I'm sure the location helps being across the street from a small movie theater. We went on a Friday and it was quite busy. There's no waiting area, so we hung outside for about 15 minutes. This BYOB doesn't take reservations on Fridays, so keep that in mind. The sushi is good and the prices are reasonable for the area. They don't serve sashimi as cold as a lot of restaurants, but I'm told this way in more traditional (eh, I still like it colder). If you get an appetizer, go for the dumplings. They are tasty and very delicate. The staff is very nice. They were in good spirits even though it was packed and everything still came out pretty fast. read more

This is a popular sushi spot in Bryn Mawr for the locals and college kids from Bryn Mawr and Villa Nova. It's good but not great. If this was downtown it would not be so popular. It is small and feels local. It's a little messy with a lot of clutter laying around. The service is good, not great. The offerings seem pretty standard. The sushi is not as pretty or well made as other spots in the city. The fish seems fairly fresh. I also have had the udon here and it lacks a lot of seafood and noodles. The portions are not very generous. I eat here a lot as it's near the Bryn Mawr movie theater. It's not awaful, just VERY average in every way. read more

Sushi Land - Sushi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania

I've been here a couple of times because I want to give restaurants a chance before deciding that they're terrible or amazing. Unfortunately, SushiLand is nothing special. I have had their Sake Maki, Tekka Maki, Halloween Roll, and their tempura shrimp. The tempura is fine, but this is a sushi restaurant. Their rolls are not made very well. The rolls are 80% rice with a very small amount of filling. Not only this, but upon my second visit, the tekka nigiri I had a gray hue instead of a dark red. That is not a good sign for sushi. The wait staff is friendly and the atmosphere is inviting. But if you're looking for quality sushi, the name is deceiving. read more

The sushi here is low quality. The reviews are inflated by Villanova kids who don't know any better. We went here a year ago, and had a really bad experience. Based on inflated reviews, we decided to try Sushiland. We ordered a large assortment of Sushi, and it arrived very quickly. As we were eating, my seat was facing the Sushi bar. I noticed that one of the Sushi chefs kept putting his fingers next to his mouth. At first, it didn't register, but then I did a double take. Sushi chefs usually have a sponge to keep their fingers wet, but this guy was actually licking his fingers! I told my girlfriend that "we needed to leave now!" We didn't touch 3/4 of our sushi. I paid the bill, and we got out of there ASAP. I didn't tell her why until we got out the door. Needless to say, we will never be returning to Sushiland. read more

Pretty good sushi for the suburbs, and it's BYOB. My girlfriend and I came here on weekend evening. We were seated very quickly, and the wait staff was fairly attentive from the door. The rolls are typical and tasty-- good spider roll. They do have an inventive bay scallop roll (warm, saucy, and pretty good) that I would get again. They also serve barley tea (nice change from green or jasmine tea). The space is fairly large, clean, well kept. The biggest draw back is that it's a hub for college students (I'm a young working professional), and they crowd the place, are sometimes loud, and drink boxed wine by the Yahtzee shaker. Maybe I'm spoiled by the very good sushi places in Center City, or maybe I just wasn't into the restaurant the day I visited. Either way, it's a good spot for the suburbs. Bottom line: Go to Sushi Land, have some good sushi, drink some wine, and beware the college kids. read more

I'm not a big sushi eater, but I'll go to appease my friends. One of the reasons why I enjoy Sushi Land is that they're non-sushi options are just as appetizing. I recommend the edamame (perfectly salted), miso soup, and chicken teriyaki. The menu is cheap, and my friends say it's the best and most affordable sushi around. Sushi Land also does take out, which is a huge plus when you don't have time to sit down. One of its main attributes it the fact that it's a BYOB. In fact, the reason I gave it five stars is that Jae, the head chef, enthusiastically did a round of sake bombs with me and my friends one night after the place had emptied out. That alone is worth the highest rating. read more

Yes, this is the sushi spot I run to when I get a hankering. It's close, good, and affordable. It's a comfortable little byob in the heart of Bryn Mawr. Jae, a Korean Californian transplant mans the sushi bar. I've mostly had the sushi here, so I can't say much about the non-sushi offerings. I had the agedashi tofu and can't recommend it. Also, their house salad dressing is a bit weird... it's nutty and not gingery. I'm not a fan. I am a fan of their rolls... they have a pretty large variety and also have specials. I am a huge fan of the villanova roll and the mexican roll. They also have all-you-can-eat sushi sometimes, if you're into that sort of thing. I would give this place 5 stars but the service can be spotty at times. And they play some terrible korean pop music. This place is also overrun by Villanova, Haverford, and Bryn Mawr students. I don't know about you, but I sure as hell couldn't afford to eat sushi when I was in college! Must be nice, you trust fund babies! read more
