I got the salmon bowl, the salmon avocado maki, and tuna crispy rice. The salmon bowl was definitely my favorite. The salmon was cooked very nicely so that it wasn't dry, and I loved the miso glaze that they put on top. It added a very nice sweetness to the salmon and created a very nice char. It was pretty small portion size though. The salmon avocado maki was solid too. It was the most filling! You get 5 pieces :) The tuna crispy rice was just alright. The rice part was good, but there was a bit too much mayo in the tuna. The miso soup that came complimentary with it was good too! I like how generous they were with the seaweed. Such a nice vibe inside! It's definitely a nicer spot, but still casual enough for lunch. I wanna come back for dinner! Service was quick and server was kind.

The place wasn't that busy at this time but by the time we left around 6:30 it was pretty packed. Fish was decently fresh, not super creative combos out there like some places. I always get a salmon sashimi piece at the end to test the quality and it didn't disappoint. Everything else was fairly normal, probably not my favorite place in the city, but I got the job done.

I have recently got a gift card at Printer's Row location for my birthday. It clearly is for all their locations. Unfortunately, here at Chinatown's location, when they attempted to scan the card, the staff said it does not work and only works at the Printer's Row location. I ended up calling the Printer's Row location and had the team talk to the manager at the Chinatown location, and the manager at the Chinatown location kept their stance that it does not work, stating Printer's Row location does not know why the gift card does not work at the Chinatown location, and will not make any exceptions to accepting the gift card. Thankfully at the Printer's Row location, they are stating it's due to their system being new as they are a new location, and reason why the gift card is not working at all the locations yet which they are now working on to fix so it does not happen to any other customer moving forward. I just wish the Chinatown location showed some compassion to address the issue and still accommodate the inconvenience instead of us having to go back to the Printer's Row location to use the gift card Price: Approximately $20, not including tip for 2 people. There are lunch specials! Ambience: Indoor Seating Overall: Worst experience, especially to follow up my birthday celebration

My only critique is the pacing. Since the chef already had the fish sliced and prepped, I expected a smoother flow, but the meal took about an hour and a half for 14 pieces of sushi.

The taki yoki fritters weren't bad either. We saw people getting omakase, so we ordered a yummy looking piece they were receiving. It was just okay (chutoro truffle). The nigiri was also okay. The tuna piece was the only I really loved. The fish quality wasn't as high as I was expecting. The sushi was decent. A little too much truffle in the spicy blue fin tuna and a little too vegetable forward in the hamachi serrano. All in all, the atmosphere and amazing service pushed this up to a 4 for me.

Where do I begin? The service was kind of spotty, they only give you 1 menu for the entire table which made it a little inconvenient for everyone to select their sushi, and the food really wasn't that great. They put either spicy mayo or that damn tempura crunch in/around/on everything which doesn't even taste good. The rolls were pretty bland for what we paid for. Also, they give you a $2 discount if you pay cash, haha! Wow, a whole $2....gee thanks! They also serve shitty Pepsi products to save money obviously because no one likes drinking that battery acid except libtards and beta males. Their godzilla roll was by far the worst I've ever had and they should rename it the goat-zilla roll because when I tasted it, it was like a goat jumped in my mouth and passed gas...let me tell you...it was really baaaaad. Sorry for the bad joke, but even more sorry I didn't bring Tums. Anyway, God forbid you leave a bad review for this place because the owner's friends might flag the review as offensive or inappropriate to Yelp HQ. Whatever, I'll just write....insert DJ Khaled voice here...ANOTHER ONE. Avoid this place at all costs. You've been warned. read more

It is about 21 dollars for an all you can eat which is the price at most of these but the staff here was extremely nice! The manager actually came to us and asked us how everything was. The sushi is served on a boat which I thought was really cool. Definitely a place to return too with the family. They also have a lunch buffet which I have not tried yet but I will be back. My only complaint was they charge per roll that you do not eat. Also the parking is ample and free which makes things a lot easier. read more

I went there on the first day they opened. I usually went to Sushi Para 2 but they have become horrible and sushi world was very close to me so I decided that I needed a new sushi place. The owner and workers there were very very nice and great to have a conversation with. If you do go there you won't be disappointed. I suggest anything with salmon and shrimp tempura in it. The dragon roll and shrimp tempura roll were great and the fish has outstanding quality. Will definitely visit again! read more
