Volcano is always a 10/10 experience! The staff is so friendly and helpful. I had been wanting sushi for the longest time and I always think of Volcano and how good the sushi is. I typically go back and forth from the Dream Roll to the Philly Roll. The rolls are both great options depending on how hungry you are. This time, I had the Dream roll because it is so so delicious! The crab meat on top just adds the perfect touch to the roll. I am so excited to go back! read more

The food is always so fresh and delicious! Service is also prompt and the staff is friendly. I always try to stop here when I'm in town.

I've been to Volcano years ago when I was a student and I remember it being a fun place for group dinners. It still is and the service and staff are wonderful. This time though I wasn't completely satisfied with the meal. I usually get sushi, but this time I tried the steak teriyaki. The steak was cooked perfectly, however the sauce was not good to me. It was so thick and sweet that I felt like I was eating barbecue sauce. My sister's chicken katsu looked great, but she also commented that the sauce didn't seem to go with it. She used mine instead lol. The side salad was so wet and the dressing tasted off. The miso soup was hot how I like it and the gyoza were delicious. read more

The lead hostess(?) was AWESOME! I had a catering order for 15 and they helped me through the ordering process (could have just let me spend money, but told me what was reasonable for my needs). Called to double check pickup time so food was coming out as I arrived and not sitting around getting cold (or warm for the sushi/shashimi). A great experience and I unhesitantly recommend! read more

Excellent dinner. Looks very popular for dates. Daughter had dragon roll. I had hibachi chicken. Highly recommended.

Awesome food and service! Loved roll and twin tower roll 10/10. This is my favorite sushi in Morgantown :

We had such high hopes coming back here. We have always had great experiences here. It's been years since we last ate here and there are more seats inside. We were seated right away which was fantastic. Our server brought us water but didn't take our order for 15 minutes. We ordered the Special Roll combo which comes with two rolls, soup, and salad. We had the spicy beach, rainbow, and sunset rolls. Honestly, the rolls are fantastic. The problem is the wait to get the food. We waited an hour and fifteen minutes to get our sushi. We considered leaving a few times but each table around us was being served so we thought we'll be next. It appears they are serving to go and online ordered as well and they definitely were served before us. It wasn't just us. All the tables waited a long time to be served sushi. The hibachi was pretty quickly. I would say if you're going to come, don't come during dinner or order it to go because it's really not worth the long wait. read more

Amazing service and food! Same as I remembered it from years ago. Consistent and always satisfying .

I ordered shumai and Udon with Tempura Shrimp, my husband ordered a salad and a Peace Roll. His salad and my shumai came out first - very good- succulent. Then my huge bowl of Udon came out with a side of 2 huge tempura shrimp. The shrimp were awesome, the udon not so much. The chicken pieces in it seemed a bit old and tough. The udon noodles were okay but the broth had a weird off-taste. And no salt at all, kinda bland, so I added some soy sauce. That helped with the seasoning, but that weird taste was still there. I've had udon at other places and never encountered that before. Meanwhile, my husband's sushi had not come out yet. A couple sat down next to us, ordered, and in a few minutes they got their sushi! Still none at our table. So my husband told someone. Come to find out, they never took down his order. I was right there and heard his order. He told me that after the waitress took our order she said to him "Is that all? ". And he said she had a strange look on her face. So he figured she must have never heard him ordering the sushi. He plainly said Peace Roll. At the time I was curious what the heck would be in a Peace Roll. So, finally his sushi came out and he said it was good. I don't know if I'd go back, because that's kind of embarrassing when you have to ask for your meal while showing them that the table next to you that just sat down had gotten their food already. I'd definitely never get the udon, but everything else was good. Just a bad experience. read more

While the servers were very cordial and nice, and the atmosphere is pleasant, the food was just not good. Their yellowtail jalapeno appetizer is deep fried with cream cheese... And no, it doesn't mention that on the menu. If you are a fan of this appetizer, then you know typically it's fresh (raw) yellowtail slices, in a ponzu or similar sauce, with slices of jalapeno on top. It's fresh, light, and a good way to judge the upcoming dishes. I wish I had ordered that without ordering anything else, as I would never have expected it to be deep fried with cream cheese! Their crab is fake crab, which is typical, but to have it *in* and *on* a roll is the epitome of mediocrity. The escolar was stringy and chewy, which is just downright strange. Can't recommend. Positives: The eel was decent, the house wine was cheap, and as I said, the waitresses were nice. read more

Located In a strip mall that doesn't scream quality food. I'm not a huge fan of dark restaurants in Shady strip malls as it feels less then "clean". That's just an observation and shouldn't really make u decide to visit..just explaining the environment. On to the important part, my son got the spice CA rolls. He said they were ok, not sure how good they can really be. Kinda boring choice. I got the Salman lovers and sunset roll. Sunset roll was very generous and very good. The salmon lovers was plentiful and it came with very thick portions of salmon. Waitress was friendly and came back often. Would definitely recommend read more

Food is great. Service is friendly. While pricier than fast food, here you definitely get what you pay for.

During COVID it's carry out only. The young lady brought out our food quickly. It took exactly the 25 minutes they estimated. We got all but one roll cooked because my sister is 8.5 months pregnant, but it was delicious. We had the California roll, the Shrimp Tempura Roll, the Crazy Volcano Roll, the Crazy Stone Roll, and the Beautiful Roll. We got the lunch special for $8.55 each that came with 2 rolls, miso soup, salad, 2 dumplings, and a side of steamed rice. The Beautiful Roll was extra and reasonably priced at only $5.95. With tax and tip, we paid $27.13. It was a lot of food and we didn't finish everything in one setting. It was well worth the stop! We plan to return again once my sister has her baby so we can try other sushi rolls as well sashimi. I'll get pictures next time, we were hungry! read more

Surprised to find a very good sushi bar in Morgantown. The avocado crab appetizer is really good and I tried about 10 different sushi orders and they all were awesome. The West Virginia roll was a favorite and the oyster roll was very good as well. Good service and I definitely would recommend! read more

We really like this place when visiting WVU & treating our daughter & friends to sushi when we are in town. The prices are very reasonable - always surprised the bill is so low no matter how many we have in our party. The presentation of the dishes is very nice. The service has always been good. The sushi is certainly fresh & the cooked appetizers & entrees those in our party have had were very enjoyable. read more

Love this place, especially their lunch deals. The pickled cucumber you get when you eat in is a favorite of mine. I get the lunch bento box usually with a salmon roll and veggie or shrimp tempura. It is always really good. You can also get the lunch to go, which is a lot of food and nice option when you are in a hurry. I always order the cucumbers to go even though you have to pay a little as a take out customer (less than a buck). I have never had bad service but I also usually always get it to go. read more

The sushi was great. We got it to go. Service was very good and the staff were friendly. Ambiance was also very pleasant.

Sushi was at best mediocre, tempura shrimp was NOT a tempura batter. Way overpriced for the quality.

Did a take out from this restaurant my friend and I decide to eat at home. Turn out to be that there food very satisfied my appetite and hunger! Amazing Sushi rolls and Katsu Don for a low affordable price. Definitely going to go back there again when I visit Morgantown WV. :) read more

Finally found a good sushi place in Morgantown! My girlfriend and I arrived in town late on a Friday night and this was one of very few decent-looking places open past 10:00. We ordered a Spicy Salmon Roll, Spicy White Tuna Roll, Spicy Scallop Roll, and a Ninja Roll Appetizer. The salmon roll was about average, but the white tuna and scallop rolls were amazing. The Ninja roll appetizer was cool in that it had no rice (which we didn't miss at all), and the 6 pieces was a pleasant surprise for the low price. UPDATE: Tried the Beautiful Roll Appetizer and the Ichiban Roll Appetizer. I wanted the Beautiful roll because of the seaweed salad but it really just gave the roll a really undesirable chewy texture. On the other hand, the Ichiban roll was terrific. It was loaded with fish for a very reasonable price. read more

I have never been to a sushi restaurant with such salty food! They even salted the sushi rice! Totally ruined our California rolls and spicy tuna rolls and our spicy salmon rolls! I also find it unforgivable that every Japanese restaurant offers regular sodium soy sauce (red cap) and low sodium soy sauce (green cap). We had no option but to go with the regular so it was saltiness on top of saltiness if we wanted our wasabi mixed. As for my salmon teriyaki, the sauce that was on it was a visibly solid cornstarch combination that had a slimy taste to it. Super disappointing food. read more

This is by far my favorite sushi place in Morgantown. We (my wife and I) went there for dinner the other night. While you wait for your meal you are given a small plate of what tastes like cucumbers in vinegar. Delicious. Then we started out our meal by ordering a sushi appetizer. We ordered the Crazy Volcano roll and Shrimp Tempura roll. The presentation was beautiful. That was followed up with salads and soup. Both of which were mediocre at best. Then we ordered a main course each. I ordered the chicken and steak hibachi dinner. My wife had the chicken hibachi dinner. The food came out sizzling on hot "fajita like" plates. The vegetables were crisp, the meat cooked perfectly, and the sauce was great. They even give you a dipping sauce for the meat that is great. For desert they brought out a slice of cheesecake for us on the house. I don't know if this is typical, but it was great either way. To cap the meal off they brought out an orange that has been pre-sliced for you and presented beautifully. Two notes: small dining space, so expect a wait and to be sitting close to other couples/guests. Second, from what I can tell they only have two servers at anytime of the day (went for lunch one day also,was treated great then too!!!). read more
