The remodeling they have done to this place is spectacular! The sushi is very fresh unlike it used to be. I lived in Hawaii for 4 years and this sushi is almost as good as right from the ocean to your plate. read more

My SIL said she loved this place so I made a reservation for 8 of us with adults and kids. Upon walking up I was skeptical but boy... is this a hole in the wall. The sushi was so good and service phenomenal. I loved that soup and salad was included in the sushi we ordered. It's very rare that it is anymore and that really made the experience better. Andes candies with the bill. Can't wait to move over here, this will be my go to sushi spot! read more

Really friendly staff, nice decor and average quality of fish. I ordered the sashimi player so there is no hiding regarding fish quality. Salmon was good and very fresh. You could sell the Ahi and yellowtail(hamachi) was not as fresh. Staff was very friendly and on top of their game. There was a lot of roll options though I did not try any. read more

Five stars for consistently being awesome. I've been to Sushi Zen a dozen times or so and never had a bad experience. The food, service, and atmosphere are always top notch! When you first walk up to the place, you really don't expect it to be as nice as it is. It's in a strip mall, next to a CVS & looks a little dark from the outside. My first time, I was very surprised at how nice the interior was as my expectations were set pretty low. We've enjoyed boats of sushi, bento boxes of spicy chicken, soba noodles, tempura rolls, and of course, saki! My favorite is a large warm saki with a Sapporo beer. I know they do the formal saki bombs too, which are always fun! Excellent choice for date night, a big group of friends, or on your own at the sushi bar. Can't say enough good things about this place! read more

I love going here for sushi. Though I haven't tried other places, I haven't needed to because the sushi is always amazing when I receive it. Staff can be a little slow at times but as a server I understand how that can happen in a, generally, very busy restaurant. They have other options, such as the Bolgogi, which my mom loves and gets every time. Complementary soup and salad are very refreshing and nice to have. I love being able to sit up at the bar and see them make the sushi, that's always super cool. read more

First time here and I was very impressed. Large menu, sushi is very fresh with a wide variety of sushi and noodles.

Double date night was an absolute delight at this gem of a sushi place. Over 60 specialty rolls to choose from meant everyone got exactly what they wanted. The sushi was fresh and the sashimi slices were generous BUT nothing compared to the Avacado BOMB if you don't order it you are doing your palate a disservice. Ambiance was lovely and it wasn't until we were walking out that we realized they had closed about 40min earlier- but we never once felt rushed. Our waitress was also a delight. Their red bean ice cream is also a must try! read more

Having come from Hawaii and now living in Michigan...It is hard to impress me when it comes to Sushi, Chicken Katsu. I was very impressed. The wait staff was quick, friendly and very helpful. The place is really busy and there are no tables available when I come and that tells me everything I need to know about a restaurant. I loved the food and the experience and atmosphere. A must and my go to for Sushi and the like. I will be back many times. read more

Favorite sushi in all of Michigan. I live in Grand Rapids and always have to stop here when I'm passing through.

Our family and friends really like Sushi Zen we are pleased they are in our hometown and that they expanded their seating area. We really like sushi and on nights where we don't eat at home it's a top choice for carry out . This place is always busy and if you want to dine in over the weekend you had better get reservations or get there early. Hope you enjoy, if you sit at the sushi bar it's a cool Experience watching what you order being prepared. read more

Even using Grubhub the sashimi and sushi are wonderful. I should have taken a picture! The food taste as great as it looked... sensational

All sushi lovers should enjoy their experience at this lovely restaurant. Great food and dining plus friendly servers.

Good sushi. Their website helped with finding sushi that doesn't contain raw fish. I don't like raw fish but I do like sushi. Their firecracker and crazy girl rolls tasted amazing read more

small tables but overall the Ambiance was good and the food was delicious would come back

I've been here a handful of times and needless to say, the service and food is outstanding! Yesterday, our order was taking a bit longer than usual so the manager came over and apologized to us! We received a desserts complementary and that was greatly appreciated. We will be back! read more

Amazing first experience, very knowledgeable and attentive staff. Suzy was quick with recommendations, and guided us in the right direction. Will definitely be back. read more

Introduced my in-laws to sushi (nigiri) at this restaurant. Yep, they lived in Brighton for many years but never find the appeal of eating raw fish. The experience was very pleasant, they enjoyed it a lot. It changed their view on raw fish, they said it tasted sweet and fresh and not fishy like they'd imagined. Great job Sushi Zen!! We'll be coming again when we're in Brighton next time. :) read more

Located in a strip mall plaza with a CVS and an O'Reilly's auto parts, we didn't expect much when we drove up on a snowy Sunday afternoon. But, we were pleasantly suprised when we entered and found a large, clean comfortable space and were greeted by a friendly host. The space was quite full with other customers but wasn't loud and didn't feel busy. Service was quick and pleasant the entire time - our waitress checked in often but wasn't intrusive, used plates were cleared quickly, beverages refilled before a request could be made. The food was delicious - we ordered the tempura appetizer, salmon sashimi, and several sushi rolls - and received more than enough food. The only negative might be the price of some of the larger/fancier rolls - $16 is a bit pricy, but they were delicious and I'd likely order them again in spite of the price. Don't hesitate - go to Sushi Zen! read more

Sushi Zen - sushi rolls & sashimi - Sushi Bars Near Me - Brighton, Michigan

Love me some real sushi. This place is great. I've been coming here for years. The first couple of years we got soup and salad free with carry out not anymore so that kindof turn me away from ordering carryout anymore. I wished they gotten more desert over the past couple of years. I wish the prices stayed reasonable, now it seems that they are getting a bit high to be able to eat there weekly or every other week anymore read more

First time here for lunch ordered the sushi burrito,chirashi, and ginger salad.. not too much of fan the fish quality seemed different from most sushi places ..but i guess there isnt much in the area to compare too unless you go toward Ann Arbor or the metro Detroit area which is more competive when it comes too sushi. Will give another try and possibly update my review. read more

Sushi Zen has Absolutely Amazing food.. The Avacado Bomb & Ahi Tuna Tower for appetizers r to die for.. The Dragon, Las Vegas, Fusion, Livingston rolls to name a few r Very Delicious.. Presentation is Always Fabulous.. Service is Great. Ohh.. the Martinis r Delicious as well! All around great place to dine! read more

UofM Roll & Firecracker are always my go-to. Great waitstaff and our carry out orders during covid have been on point!

Our family has been coming to Sushi Zen for years. It is worth the 45 minute drive to us! Of all the rolls we've tried (and we have tried a LOT!) there are some standouts. Keeping in mind we like spicy - our favorite rolls are the Red Wing, Blizzard, Kiss of Fire and White Cajan. You really can't go wrong with any of these, but the Red Wing Roll is a definite favorite! Not the healthiest choice, as it is the only one deep fried of the four, but, when at Sushi Zen... Soup and salad comes with your meal. We skip the soup but enjoy the ginger salad. Edamame is a go-to appetizer for us as we wait for our sushi. read more

Sushi zen rocks. Forget any other joint in the Brighton or surrounding area. If you want to be blown away by delicious sushi here's your new spot!! Presentation is always on point here. They really plate things Lovley!! It separates them from good to great. Price is awesomely affordable. And the sushi always is fresh and yummy. The restaurant itself is very clean, and has one of the better staffs in Brighton. I only get take out after work for the most part, but I never wait long and I'm greeted immediately by very friendly people. If you love sashimi tuna a lot like I do I'm not sure how I feel on the quality of their tuna, I do wish it were a little higher quality. And other than one time, my Togo orders have always been spot on perfect with nothing forgotten. All in all they are the best place for sushi anywhere around Brighton area. Love sushi zen! read more

I've been going here since they opened and I can't find better sushi ANYWHERE! I moved out of Brighton 4 yrs ago but go back just to eat here. I've had sushi many many places and no place compares. The Pistons rol is my FAVE, it has the best of everything with a spicy kick. I even have friends that live far from Brighton but will drive the hour to eat here Try it, you'll be hooked! read more

The sushi is so great and the service is excellent! Definitely worth the wait! We will be back

When did seafood get so good in the middle of Michigan? I haven't had good sushi unless I'm on one of the coasts. This place is a good find. Every roll I've tried I've liked. I suggest reservations if they are offering them or get there early. You will wait a while of you don't! read more
