Fun and quick sushi! Sushirama is a fun and colorful restaurant with a novelty conveyer belt that allows you to try pairs of different rolls at different price points. I’ve been to Sushirama a handful of times and overall it’s a neat hang-out spot for casual sushi. The basics: There are five different colors for plates which designate the price points of $1.50, $2, $2.50, $3, and $4. On each plate the nigiri or rolls come out with 2 pieces. The plates have chips on the bottom so that when they have been out on the conveyer belt for 90 minutes, they automatically get taken off. If a roll you would like is not out, you can just ask your server for the roll, and can also order the complete full roll if you would like as well. I recommend ordering off the menu, especially when its busier and there’s less of a selection on the belt. Sometimes waiting for that perfect roll to come by takes a little longer than expected. When you order off the menu, the rest of the pieces also go on the belt. Vegetarian and gluten-free rolls are also designated on the menu. If you’re not feeling like sushi, they also offer a couple of ramen options. I’m a huge fan of sushi with fruit, so I do tend to like the sweeter rolls over the more savory. My top favorite rolls are the pineapple express, lobster tempura mango, and spider. I have tried the ramen as well, but I honestly prefer the sushi. If you are in the mood for ramen, it’s probably best to check out Osaka Ramen which is owned by the same owner of Sushirama. Cool things: If you work across the street on the medical campus, you can get 15% off with your badge. Happy hour is Mon-Fri from 3-6pm and is 25% off all rolls. Happy Hour is a great time to go because those sushi plates can really stack up! They also have a robot that prepares the rice! (While this is cool, this does seem to contribute to looser rice in the rolls which can result in pieces falling apart). The Fitzsimons location also has its own special roll called the Fitzsimons. Sometimes they will have signs out for other special rolls or appetizers. If you’re looking for fun and casual sushi to enjoy with friends or just want to try a bunch of different rolls, this is the place for you.

Kiyoshi’s Sushi LLC – Menu with Prices – 6550 Gateway Ave, Sarasota

Everything we had was delicious and the place is small but awesome. The service was incredible; friendly and attentive from as soon as we entered and continued as we left. The restaurant’s decor is really cool; the conveyor belt, when not in use for their sushi plates, has a delightfully awesome array of rubber ducks. Their spicy salmon roll was some of the best sushi I have ever had, the eel was incredible, and the tuna was beautiful. As one of my daughters said, “this place has ruined sushi for me.” We had 2 pieces of nigiri, and 6 sushi rolls with 2 salads (with homemade ginger dressing), 2 bowls of miso soup (homemade on site), and 3 drinks with tip for only $73! I will DEFINITELY be back!!!!

Sushi Factory – Menu with Prices – 8115 NE Vancouver Mall Dr, Vancouver

My review is not reflective of the sushi, only because I eat very basic veggie sushi (avocado and cucumber rolls and an assortment of such). I love shrimp also, so I come in and see a tempura shrimp roll with a little crab inside topped with avocado. Basically what I love. I grabbed the only 3 I could find on the belt and ate almost all of them. I couldn’t find a picture of this roll on the menu am I saved the last bite to show the waitress. Very long story short. I ordered two more. The original plates were orange. I was handed ONE plate. And it was blue. $.75 difference. No big deal. It’s the principal though. He then proceeded to put 3 plates of the same roll on the belt with teriyaki drizzled on top. And before you start to question if the blue plate had a double order like some places do, it didn’t. Same amount of sushi. I grabbed the next 3 plates and ate them because that was the only roll appetizing to me. I’m really just writing this in hopes that the owners acknowledge this and make sure they stay consistent. I may not return because the chef rolled his eyes at me twice and consistency is key. Once when I ordered the sushi, another time when I wanted more spicy mayo. I’m going to take it with a grain of salt and move on but I figured you should be warned, just in case it happens to you.

Kura Revolving Sushi Bar – Menu with Prices – 9659 Milliken Ave suite 104-105, Rancho Cucamonga

Been coming to this sushi place since 2013 when it used to be Kula Revolving Sushi. In comparison, the new and improved Kura is way better! They definitely upgraded their technology and the way the restaurant works. LOVE that they have screens that allow you to order and also the belt. I keep seeing bad reviews in regards to their sushi but I honestly feel the quality and the service far exceed what you pay for. $2.60 per plate is cheap in comparison to other sushi places. Not to mention their hand rolls are AMAZING! They give you the option of using seaweed or rice paper for hand rolls. I will say, this place was hit or miss up until the remodel. Since then, we have only had good experiences at Kura. Oh and the prizes for eating 15 plates are a GREAT WAY TO GET YOUR CHILD TO EAT! Our 10 year old who has been eating there since she was 4 has ventured out into trying rolls and now has a new favorite: Golden Crunchy. We make it a goal to eat at least 15 plates as a family and alternate who get to open the prize.

Sushi House – Menu with Prices – 901 Sunrise Ave # A2, Roseville

Went to Sushi House for the first time for my lunch break and introduced by one of my coworkers, and I’m glad brought me here. It’s a little hidden inside a small plaza and there aren’t a lot of available seating so don’t expect to bring a big party. The service was quick and food came out fast and still tastes fresh and delicious. The sushi rolls we ordered had the right balance of rice and sauce and wasn’t too heavy. Just the perfect amount. The one thing I did notice about the sushi rolls was that the rice was very soft which made it even better. They also do have some rolls that are 50% off! The tonkatsu ramen was also good. I liked how the tonkatsu pieces they gave us were thick slices and not paper thin like most ramen houses. I’d say it was a successful first time there. Definitely recommend trying it out.

Sushi Sakura – Menu with Prices – 24711 Katy Fwy Ste 500, Katy

I’ve been wanting to check out a revolving sushi spot and finally got an opportunity to do so at Sushi Sakura on a Monday evening. Sushi Sakura is located in a shopping center so parking isn’t an issue. Katy has really blown up lately and their dining scene is growing tremendously. I don’t visit often because it’s a far trip but this was worth the visit. They have bar-style seating as well as booths by the conveyer belt. If you’ve never been to a place like this, it’s a pretty cool concept. A conveyer belt brings around a selection of sushi and other Japanese tapas. If you’re interested in an item, just take it off of the conveyer belt and eat away. You can supplement what happens to be on the conveyer belt by placing a custom order. Since their menu extends well beyond what was offered on the conveyer belt, I did a mix of both. When you place a custom order on their tablet, it comes straight to your seat. You’re charged per item and there are different prices based on the dish. I tried an assortment including gyoza, pork katsu, a sushi roll with shrimp, shrimp shumai, teriyaki roll, and one or two others. Everything was good and I like that this experience gives you the opportunity to try a bunch of dishes. It’s a unique dining experience and one that I would compare to other unique dining experiences like hot pot, Japanese BBQ, fondue, etc.

Piranha Killer Ramen Menu with Prices 309 Curtis Mathes Way #149, Arlington

I went a different route today & instead of getting ramen I got sushi. Their sushi selection isn’t very large and the quantity you get isn’t normally the portion you’d get at normal sushi restaurants. Their rolls are more on the smaller end, maybe an inch at most thick. It’s really not a lot and you’d have to order 2-4 rolls to really get full depending on your stomach. The quality was like buffet sushi. I honestly wouldn’t recommend gong the sushi route. Along with sushi, we also ordered the Uni Pasta and that was actually pretty good. The amount you get wasn’t worth the price point. Although it was a little fishy, it was minor enough to overlook. Service today was a little iffy. Granted it’s a Sunday night during dinner rush hour. It took longer than expected for our food to come out and it seemed like some of it was forgotten. Overall, if this was my first time and I had went the sushi route, I wouldn’t have came back. I don’t recommend the sushi and for someone who doesn’t like ramen and loves sushi – GO WITH RAMEN !!!

Kura Revolving Sushi Bar – Menu with Prices – 9292 Warren Pkwy Suite 320, Frisco

OK sushi, but really fun concept that I wish they would have more of in other large cities. Basically, the gimmick at Kura Revolving Sushi Bar is in the title, the revolving sushi bar or conveyor belt. Customers sit down at their tables and can either order dishes made by the sushi chefs and have it sent to them via the revolving sushi bar or they can pluck items from it that have been rotating around the entire restaurant. If it’s your first time here, you’ll have tons of fun, maybe even a little too much fun to the point you’ve overspent. We came here with my family on a Saturday evening at 7:30pm and there was only a short wait. Once we got seated, we went straight to work and started taking different sushi dishes off of the conveyor belt. I have to admit, it was a lot of fun just taking dishes off of the revolving bar and not having to order/wait for our food. And you might ask, so how do you pay for the dishes that were taken from the revolving bar? Simple, there’s a small opening at the edge of every table that can fit a small plate. After customers are done with the plates, they slide it into the opening and it’ll count towards their total number of plates eaten. For items that were specially ordered, those will automatically be tallied because the system knows you ordered it. As for the food, the sushi was OK. There was a good variety – salmon, tuna, eel, beef, tamago, etc – but there’s only 2 pieces of sushi on every plate and the rice could have been a little fresher. For our 1st time here, it was a fun experience and something different than the usual order and wait for your food. Would we try it again? Definitely. It wasn’t bad at all.

Osaka Sushi – Menu with Prices – 3685 W Henrietta Rd, Rochester

This place used to be good. Now please just avoid it! 1. As a buffet restaurant, this place tries to fill you up with rice, noodle and water, not in a subtle way. I ordered avocado sushi with a smear of avocado, seafood ramen with tons of noodles and two tiny pieces of imitation crab, eel rolls with a paper thin eel on a giant rice ball, etc. They don’t want to sell good food. They are trying to make you feel full. 2. The service is terrible as well. I ordered tempura that I never got. When I tried to order some more, the server told me that I needed to finish the rice bowl. For god sake, I couldn’t finish the eel rice bowl because it’s just a full bowl of rice with two pieces of paper thin eels on it. At least let me order some other food to go with the rice! 3. The worst part is that the food tastes not fresh. The teriyaki eel has gone sour. Again, I left two pieces because I can’t force myself to eat stale food! Overall, I had a lettuce salad, two shrimps, four avocado rolls, eel rice bowl, seafood ramen, four eel rolls. I paid $16 and a stomachache later that day.

Sushi Mioga – Menu with Prices – 7904 NE 6th Ave, Vancouver

This has become my favorite late lunch (2-4) place to eat because of the Happy Hour pricing. They have several rolls I absolutely love and I’m a bit of a sushi snob. I recognize the level of quality you’ll get at turntable sushi restaurants and I think they are a step above most other turntable sushi joints in the area. I avoid every roll they have that has tempura though, I do this with every turntable sushi place too though because it’s never fresh tasting. I do have a complaint about Sushi Mioga though. The last two times I was there I was overcharged. The first time was pretty significant, I’d guess by $6 or $7 but it didn’t really dawn on me until I had left and started tallying up how many rolls me and the person I was with had eaten. I just wrote it off as hopefully an honest mistake. Today we went again we counted the number of plates we had, this time it wasn’t as egregious they only overcharged us by one plate ($2.15). I didn’t say anything because it was still a pretty cheap lunch but just an FYI to be on the lookout for possibly being overcharged.

Rock’n Sushi – Menu with Prices – 11940 Fairway Lakes Dr, Fort Myers

I recently discovered Rock N Sushi. it is a hidden treasure in Gateway! I live about 30 minutes away & have been coming to them for about a month now. They have a happy hour menu from 4-6pm Monday-Friday (I posted a picture of the menu). I like this place so much that I have started a list of sushi rolls that I have tried, and every time I go back I try a new roll until I have tried their entire menu. I’m doing that mainly because I have been to Blu Sushi so many times before that this place is just so unique with all sorts of different sushi roll options that I have never tried before. I highly recommend them and have referred tons of friends! They have a huge sushi menu (see photos) & a big menu for other food (I just go for sushi). I normally sit at the sushi bar and chat with the sushi chefs. Honestly, I have not had a bad experience so far & I am looking forward for many more visits (gotta complete my list!)

Sake 2 Me Sushi – Menu with Prices – 9205 E 71st St, Tulsa

Wow. What an experience. Small, intimate space with about 15 tables and an eat at bar. Everything was clean and fresh…a great little spot. Staff was friendly and attentive. We stopped in here because I wanted a $12.99 Bento box, which apparently is only for lunches….for dinner they offer some combos, and they run a bit more up to about $20, but are supposed to have larger portions. By the time we looked at the prices, figured on the extra pieces or rolls we would add, we decided on the ALL YOU CAN EAT SUSHI for $29, each. Now that sounds like a lot. For me that’s huge, because I am the advocate of value, and I am frugal, but have dropped serious change at sushi houses before…The last time I had fresh made (not buffet) AYCE sushi was about 10 years ago, was $40 a plate, and they served “white tuna” (swordfish) because it was a cheaper alternative. If you have ever eaten fresh made sushi, you know how expensive it can be, typically $4-6 per order Nigiri sushi and $8-15 per roll… If you are going to complain about a $30 AYCE price for fresh made sushi, this isn’t your bag. That’s ok, just go elsewhere that’s more your speed. If your ready for a feast, this is it. By the time we were done, we had made, and subsequently devoured, 14 orders of Nigiri sushi and 7 different rolls….yeah.. we got our money’s worth. This would have been well over $120 if we had ordered by the roll/piece. But here’s the key…this wasn’t all rice. The Nigiri sushi pieces were HUGE about 1-1/2 times the size expected with small rice portions. The rolls were also not all rice. Many had a generous portion of crab, but this was always offset with ample toppings of everything from fried crawfish to eel to masago. We left stuffed, and weren’t hungry all day the next day… There were times we just sat and enjoyed the flavors. It was that good. We will be back…not tomorrow, still full.

Blue Sushi Sake Grill – Menu with Prices – 105 Summit At Fritz Farm Ste 130, Lexington

My boyfriend and I were seated and served quickly, we came in at 5 on a Thursday. We appreciated the atmosphere and felt welcome. As far as service goes we were greeted and helped by our server named Andrew. He explained the menu to us and was attentive, they were slow so we were checked on more than normal but I wait tables and understand that making sure your few tables are happy when you aren’t busy is considerate and it was appreciated. Let’s talk about their happy hour, I’ll be honest the happy hour is a great deal… most of their rolls are discounted and drinks are too, I had a margarita for less than $4. This was one of the main highlights for us. We absolutely loved the mango crab rangoons, it was our favorite part and probably the only thing we would order again. My boyfriend really enjoys Sapporo which is a Vietnamese beer that is served in many sushi restaurants, they of course carried the beer, but they served it out of a bottle with a cold glass, which would be great if a bottle of Sapporo is as good as it is out of a can (yes I know, normally beer is better out of a glass bottle) my only reason to highlight this is the fact that Blue has an entire wall displayed of Sapporo in a can but you can’t order it? Alright, Sushi time.. I’ll be blunt here, I’ve had better Sushi which is fine, but I’ve had better Sushi right down the road in Lexington. I ordered the Lion King Roll which was sort of meh, my boyfriend ordered a roll with soft shell crab (spider something roll, we can’t remember the name) so he was really happy to see that they carried one of his favorite types of shellfish BUT this roll was pretty disappointing for the price, a few pieces of his roll didn’t even have the soft shell crab in them. Overall our sushi was average at best. I rarely have pictures to post to my yelp reviews because I make it a point to not use my phone at the dinner table, but, if you’re looking for average sushi I’d go somewhere else.
