Food was good. Attentive service. The restaurant is old and the decor is not much to write home about. We enjoyed the lunch special Bento Box. I was a bit traumatized when I went to the restroom. Clearly has mold in the back of the building that impacted my asthma. read more

Good food and family owned. My favorite sushi place in temple terrace! I recommend the avocado boat appetizer.

So hungry after a long day at Busch Gardens, and found this little place. It was perfect! Great sushi and a good noodle bowl for the kids 10/10. read more

i've been eating here for the last nine years. When I worked closer to Tampa, we would eat here multiple times a week. They have the best sushi in Tampa and the most amazing service. when I first started eating here the owners kids were so small and now they've gotten so big. I love seeing all of them work as a family. All of the sushi is made to perfection, and they offer other appetizers and entrées read more

Good sushi and Japanese food. Good service. We will be coming back. Worth a visit.

Good sushi for a reasonable price but service was really slow, took over an hour to get our food in a half full restaurant

Nice fresh rolls. Tried the Tampa roll, Boston roll and their popular Volcano roll. All great! Service was great as well. Clean restaurant. Not expensive. read more

This was my first time visiting this location, they had a variety of sushi and everything tasted so fresh and good. We order several different kind Godzilla Rolls, California Rolls etc. The person at the front door greeted us he was friendly and so was the waitress. The wait only lasted about 5 mins and food started rolling in. Overall its a great experience a small restaurant nive little ambiance to eat with a family or a few friends that live sushi read more

Spicy tuna Spicy salmon Tuna- avocado roll Spacious inside and clean. Empty when we came, but it was thanksgiving day... I imagine it's busy otherwise. Order took a little longer than expected for two people. Sushi was good, not phenomenal, but good. read more

Tokyo Sushi Bar - 3 roll special - Japanese Near Me - Tampa, Florida

I love this little place. I've been here a few times with my husband and their sushi is always delicious and service is always pleasant. I came in today for lunch and ordered their lunch special - 2 rolls for 9.95 and this included salad and miso soup. You can also do 3 rolls for 12.95. I ordered the spicy tuna and angel roll. The angel roll has cooked tuna and the roll is fried. I actually thought it would be raw tuna and outside fried. I'm not a fan of cooked tuna but this one was not bad if you prefer cooked sushi rolls! Their crab Rangoon roll is the best! I honestly forgot about it during my visit today and was sad I didn't order it! Next time! COVID: The employees all wear masks and they kept all guests with one table between everyone. read more

The food is satisfying with the good price. I love the quietness in the restaurant. The service is excellent.

This restaurant has been here for over 20 years! I finally went back again tonight and had a lovely dinner! The avocado boat appetizer is delicious! The pork dumplings and crab Rangoon were also very good! We had the dancing crab and it was beyond delicious! All the sushi was very good! I can't remember what I ordered! All delicious. The fried ice cream was huge and we shared it between 4 people! The place was very clean and the sushi chefs all wearing gloves! Everyone helping out each other. Only one server and she worked extremely hard! Why the 4 stars only......I know they've been there for over 20 years but some attention in the bathroom is needed. It gives a bad vibe when the bathroom is dirty. Wipe the light switches, doors especially around the door knob, the door frame and baseboards too! A clean bathroom gives a better impression. read more

Went here for lunch with my daughter. It's located in the shopping center on the corner of 56th and Fowler in Temple Terrace. They have a pretty good lunch special for $8.99. You get a choice of 2 rolls plus soup and salad, or 3 rolls, for $11.99. I chose the 3 roll deal, selecting a volcano roll, eel, and spicy crunchy tuna, and ordered seaweed salad instead of the regular salad. The volcano roll was delicious, and the 'lava' was surprisingly a large and tasty serving. The other two rolls were average, but enjoyable. I could only eat half the rolls after the soup (fairly plain) and seaweed salad, (very good and a generous serving) so I took the rest home. Enjoyable. read more

Very happy to have visited this sushi restaurant! The sushi was delicious and service was great, did not feel rushed at all. They also have a good selection of beer. read more

Came here after being told not to expect too much. Wish we had listened. We ordered a love boat and it was supposed to feed two. It was very small in size but not price. We also ordered edamame as an appetizer and they were soggy. We also ordered chicken teriyaki and it was a good size but chicken pieces had fat pieces which were a bit off putting. The waitress was nice and our food came quick but overall not happy with the quality of food. read more

I normally don't like giving sushi places low ratings. But being an avid sushi connoisseur, and seeing the great ratings for this place (plus the convenience of it being so close to home), I had to give this place a try. And...I was incredibly disappointed. The wait alone was over an hour. Granted they were busy, which is normally a good sign. I ordered online, and after the order I chose the text option so they text you when the order is ready. Cool! Well...after 45 min I decided to call to check in. The phone line was busy, so after 55 min wait mark, I got through. I was told 20 more min because the mussels take 20 min to bake. Wow... After 25 min I had to call again because nobody texted or called to tell me my food was ready. My bf and I head back home super hungry and excited to try. We got 4 rolls, mussels, avocado boat and takoyaki. Here's where the fun begins: Extra charge for the sauces. Thats fine, but we had no napkins, and there was no Wasabi or ginger with our meal. Worst takoyaki I've ever had. Undercooked, super mushy and soggy. Only 3 balls in an order of $4.95 Avocado boat was also sad...very mushy. Tasteless. The mussels were done well. I give those a plus! The 4 sushi rolls....terrible. We REALLY tried to love them. But there was one common theme involving all the food besides being mushy. Everything was BLAND. So bland! The rice isn't seasoned AT ALL. All the rolls tasted the same, no flavor. No kick. Nothing stood out. We got 2 rolls that looked exactly the same minus one or 2 ingredients. They both tasted plain. I spent $80 that night on food that had absolutely no taste and was soggy. Hard pass on this place, sorry. ‍ read more

Service is great!! I got the rock n roll roll ,it was delicious ..definitely would recommend

They are awesome! Whenever my partner and I come to Temple Terrace to visit his parents, we always come here for a sushi pick me up. The quality is always pheomenal and def satisfies our sushi cravings. Btw - they are closing at 9pm now. Learned that the hard way when the owner told us they were closed. She didn't rush us or anything! read more

Atmosphere is nice, but not fancy. It's very open and the booth has a lot of space to fit comfortably. The food was pretty good but not my absolute favorite. The avocado boats were really good (could have used a touch of salt, since avocado always can use a little salt). The simple rolls were my favorite (Alaskan roll was awesome). The more complex rolls were just good. Service was very friendly and pretty quick. Price was about what you would expect. read more

The Chef was great. Very accommodating. I wanted to sit at the bar, with an eye view of the fresh fish. Instead, a very pushy server, put me at the bar in front of their 100 styrofoam "to go" boxes. You go to a Sushi bar to watch the main star (their Chief) not to star at useless take out containers. What an insult to the customer & the Chief. Food was nice, but, I won't go back (either will my friends) until they show a little regard for ambience & their patrons. Thus a #3 grade read more

Food was great, our server was very polite. The restaurant was clean. The vegetable tempora was perfect all the way down to the dipping sauce. The sushi taste fresh. I would diffintley go again read more

I first ate at Tokyo Sushi within weeks of moving to Tampa to attend USF back in 2003. Every experience since then - 20 years (that hurts) worth of regular sushi lunches and dinners - has been better than the one before it. I am so happy they survived the pandemic; I've been in a relationship with this restaurant longer than half my friendships and my marriage! Try anything from the specialty roll menu. If it contains ingredients you like, I promise you will be thrilled by the freshness, balance of flavors, and attention to detail. read more

I love this place. Their items are well priced and they have good options for their happy hour. The servers are incredibly sweet. I'm always seated immediately and they've always treated me well. read more

Love it Great sushi great prices nice ambiance lunch deal is a goto on fridays 5 stars

Popped in for a quick bite to eat for their lunch sushi special. As seems to be the normal for all restaurants right now, the place was empty except the workers. The gentleman was polite when I picked up my food, but I couldn't hear what he said under his mask. (More my hearing issue than him really). The sushi was good and I ordered the three roll special with the Crab Rangoon roll, salmon avocado roll, and tuna roll. Add ins for these rolls were .99 starting and was listed clearly in the online menu which was great! I love transparency and upfront listings for extra charges. This lunch special also included a salad and soup! I haven't eaten those yet, but if they're the same quality they'll be yummy! I forgot to ask for yum yum sauce but thankfully had some at home! All in all pretty good sushi I'll be back for their lunch special again! read more

This was such a nice surprise and hit the spot. Loved the dancing crab and sweet potato roll, but had to add avocado to the latter because it was plain sweet potato. Their seaweed salad was a good portion, good for two people. Only drawback was that they charged for sauces like yum yum and spicy mayo (which both tasted like spicy mayo). Otherwise, super delicious food!! read more

Service was trash from the get, I should've known to walk out from my gut intuition. Sushi rolls were great, the udon soup is not your traditional Japanese soup, I don't recommend. Ambience is depressing, I'm extremely dissatisfied. read more

I am honestly not sure how anyone could rate this above a 2 star. Really really gross, sad, and yucky. Tuna looked dark. Place smelled like mildew and rotten fish. Nice staff, but wow this place is horrendous. Avoid at all costs. read more

Hi it's me, Mr. Egg allergic again. Yup this time I stopped in and notified the staff that I was egg allergic. As is usual for most Japanese places, they use mayo in the salad dressing. So I asked for some rice wine vinegar. The server did not want to bring it saying that I would not like it. I asked her to bring it anyway and it was fine! The miso soup came out hot and had an excellent roasted soy flavor. The steak teriyaki.... This has to be the sweetest Teriyaki sauce I've ever had. It's good! Steak was marginal qaulity but ok. read more

Stopped in with my daughter for dinner and everything was great. Small, quiet place, with a really large sushi menu. Lots of raw and cooked options. Tasted fresh, good portions, and not cheap ingredients. We will definitely be back. In a strip mall down the road from Busch Gardens. read more

Recently I went back to Tokyo Sushi after over a year since my last visit and I enjoyed some pretty amazing Tataki with various fish - it was very filling and the quality was excellent. As far as the rolls go, all of them were fresh and I was really impressed because it was the excellence I previously recognized in the place when I used to visit with friends for parties and lunch outings. The quality of the nigiri and sashimi is usually great and there is a huge variety of rolls on the menu - so each experience can allow for experimentation. I love the J-Pop and various other Asian songs that play here as well. This has been one of my favorites in town and I hope to go more this year in 2014! read more

I wish I had discovered Tokyo Sushi Bar earlier! Their lunch specials are out of this world. 2 rolls with miso soup and salad for $8.50?! 3 rolls with miso soup and salad for $10.95?! Yes, you read that correctly. Unlike nearby competitors with similar lunch special pricing (*cough* Sake House *cough*), Tokyo's sushi rolls are of much better quality. They look nicer and they taste better, too. The couple times I ordered take-out sushi from here, the hostess (I forget her name) was so incredibly friendly. She offered me water while I waited, chatted with me, and always had a smile on her face. There need to be more people like her working in the restaurant industry. The last time I went, I ordered some Mexican rolls (fried shrimp, avocado, smelt roe). For some reason, the sushi chef added slices of raw carrots in there (which was not mentioned anywhere on the menu). It kinda ruined the taste and texture of the sushi. Luckily, I was able to push most of the carrot sticks out (but not all). Oh well - I'll be more specific next time. The inside of the place is pretty large, too. I don't know how busy it is during the peak of the lunch rush, but given how good the sushi and prices are, it honestly should be packed. Visiting Tokyo Japanese Restaurant & Sushi Bar is a must for any sushi-loving USF students. This place is a hidden gem! read more
