Kuma Sushi was a pleasant surprise. The ambiance is contemporary with a unique feel. The space is…read moreopen and airy, making it comfortable and inviting. One thing I noticed was the mix of different tables and chairs throughout the restaurant. It almost feels like a hodgepodge of furniture, but somehow it works and fits the contemporary vibe rather than feeling out of place. The food was excellent, the service was friendly, and the prices were very reasonable. We received our food surprisingly fast, which was a nice bonus. There was a mistake with one of our rolls, but the staff handled it well. They quickly remade the roll and brought us a replacement at no charge, which I really appreciated. One of the highlights was a custom roll with jalapeño, avocado, and asparagus. I added cream cheese and had it deep fried, and it honestly tasted like a sushi version of a jalapeño popper. It was absolutely amazing and something I would order again in a heartbeat. Overall, it was a great experience from start to finish. Good food, good service, reasonable prices, and a unique atmosphere. I would definitely recommend giving Kuma Sushi a try.

Had ordered from the restaurant before on DoorDash and this time I decided to pop in. I was…read morepleasantly surprised at how cute the space is. The parking is a bit of a challenge right now due to the construction in downtown. However, there is a lot right next to them that you can park in and there is also parking on the street directly in front of their door. The restaurant is modern and decorated in Asian theme. The bathroom and the restaurant is very clean. And the staff was very attentive, professional, and very pleasant. I enjoyed the food I ordered via DoorDash, but this time I got it fresh right out of the kitchen and the counter, and it was amazing. We started with the jalapeño bomb, and mixed tempura in a size small. Both those appetizers were delicious and perfect for sharing. Then we ordered a California roll on soy paper, the Kuma special sushi roll, and the creamy salmon roll. Everything was fresh and very shareable. We could've easily shared our meal with two other people needless to say we had leftovers to take home. I definitely recommend this place and I look forward to going back. There are other things on the menu such as fried rice, udon, and teriyaki plates. They also had a couple of desserts, so I am definitely planning on trying one of those. Enjoy!

When you walk inside, you're immediately greeted. The service has always been great! It's a nice, cozy vibe. The sushi bar is to the left of the entrance and there's booth-style seating on the right side by the wall. I love ordering their tempura rolls. The hot night roll and super dragon roll are some of my top picks! And their rolls are very filling. Great portion size! I love getting their green tea fried ice cream for dessert. Perfect sweet treat to end the meal!

I really hate that I have to give this place a 4 but it's because the spicy edamame was not to my liking and they do not carry pineapple soju. The food is definitely a must try, especially the beautiful yellowtail sashimi. The seafood yakisoba was so delicious. I did not care much for the baked salmon roll, Love Sushi takes first place for that roll and Prime Sushi take first place for spicy edamame. The crazy tuna roll I ordered was so big! The crunchy pieces on top can stand to sit in some absorbing paper towels because they were a bit oily but went well with the Tuna dance. I personally did not care for the bluefin tuna. Overall my babe and I enjoyed our dinner and will most definitely return for more.

I do know sometimes there are open tables and people can't be seated right away probably due to a shift change. There may be tables but no servers so people do have to wait sometimes. I did see a negative review about this but keep in mind, if you have worked in restaurants you would understand the principle about seating tables with no servers as they are closing out for the new shift servers to clock in. Also blocking the door is blocking the exit which is against code as it has to be clear for emergencies. All in all this place is amazing. The hostesses are so sweet and the servers are great. Will continue going.

I'm glad we did, because it gave us a whole new feel for the place. Inside isn't massive, but it's not cramped either. Think of it like the Goldilocks of restaurant spaces: just right. The vibe leans calm and cozy, dim lighting, black walls, and splashes of color here and there. It's got that "peaceful sushi zen" atmosphere without being boring. Our waitress deserves a medal (or at least an extra roll on the house). She was the only one working the floor, yet somehow managed to be friendly, attentive, and efficient all at once. Multitasking level: expert. Now onto the food, which is really why we came back. We ordered a spread: two teriyaki chicken plates, one chicken ramen bowl, an order of sushi crunch rolls, egg rolls, a large pineapple sake, a beer, and two iced teas. (Yes, we came hungry. Don't judge.) Everything came out quickly, hot, and fresh. The chicken was juicy, the rice perfectly cooked, and the little bed of veggies under the teriyaki chicken was tender-crispy and surprisingly addictive. Whoever thought of tucking those under there deserves a raise. The ramen had bold flavors that hit the spot, and the sushi rolls lived up to their name, they really were crunchy and delicious. Now, the egg rolls. Let me tell you, these might just be the best I've ever had. Perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and stuffed with flavor on the inside. The kind that makes you regret ordering only one plate. Drinks? The beer was cold (and surprisingly affordable), the iced teas were strong and refreshing, and the pineapple sake... well, it was different, let's just say it's not everyone's cup of tea. Personally, I'll stick to tequila, lol, but my husband happily claimed the sake as his new favorite. Win-win. Prices here are fair and budget-friendly, which is always nice to see at a sushi spot. The place was clean and well-kept, and I'm happy to say it still holds up just as well as when I ordered takeout years ago. Bottom line: Shoyu Sushi is still doing its thing, fresh food, good prices, relaxing vibe, and service that makes you feel taken care of. If you want sushi that crunches, teriyaki that comforts, and egg rolls that just might ruin all other egg rolls for you, this is the spot.

Today I ordered two Handrolls, the Poke Handroll and Yellowtail Handroll. The Poke Handroll with tuna & eel sauce. Also the yellowtail Handroll with masago & ponzu. The rice is perfect and the Handrolls are generous. A lovely little post meal treat of sliced apple with chocolate & peanut butter. The Japanese always know how to make food beautiful but also elevate the simplest of dishes. Most of us have had chocolate & peanut butter or apples & peanut butter. I couldn't believe how wonderful the addition of the apple slices were to the chocolate & crunchy peanut butter. What a delightful bite to end my dining experience. Thank you Love Sushi for a delightful meal.

There were plastic chairs and tables. Plenty of seating available. People seemed to trickle in around the early evening. When I walked in they didn't have a line, so there was no wait. I ordered the Shrimp Spring Rolls (with Beef) that was on their menu board. I think it was deli meat, which was ok, but not what I had expected. Tasted how you imagine. Even though I had it packaged "to-go," I chose to eat it inside while I waited on my friend to arrive. The lady behind the counter was very attentive and when she saw my sauce was low, she offered to refill it. I do wish the sauce had a stronger peanut flavor. Overall, it was decent.

If you love sushi with a Mexican twist, this is definitely the spot! The 69 Roll is always a favorite of ours because it packs so much flavor with the spicy crab, shrimp tempura, avocado, jalapeño, salmon, and that sweet & spicy sauce. But keep in mind you only get 5 pieces versus the standard 8 pieces with a roll. The Mexican Roll was also incredible, especially with the cilantro, jalapeño, red onion, and sweet sauce. The Concha del Mar drink was refreshing and came in an actual seashell, which was such a fun touch! The Bocadillac was another standout because of its refreshing flavor and the fact that it came with a shot on the side. Overall, everything was fresh, delicious, and thoughtfully prepared. We loved the Japanese-Mexican fusion concept which makes Bocados such a unique dining experience. We also loved our server, Jamie, who was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed.

They have a few lunch specials available, but I decided to go with the seaweed salad since it had been a while, along with a fresh roll. I ordered the Extra Spicy Roll, which definitely had a nice kick to it. It had a variety of fish on top: eel, white fish, tuna, and salmon with spicy tuna and shrimp tempura inside. The roll itself was decent and had a good mix of textures and flavors. The seaweed salad, however, was a bit of a surprise... because it was still frozen! You honestly couldn't tell just by looking at it, but that first bite? All icicles. I told the waitress what was wrong with it and asked for the dish to be taken off my bill. Without hesitation, she apologized and removed it without incident. Overall, service was quick and convenient for lunch, and the sushi was decent. I'd probably give them another try, but hopefully next time the seaweed salad has had a chance to thaw!
