Fair sushi

by Sue Smith

I wonder how long the sushi has sat. i always ask to have mine made fresh. I don't eat the raw fish here. The bathrooms are dirty. The wait staff is getting better but is that because they aren't busy anymore? The prices have gone way up as well. The $1.00 plate is not more. This all happened with the new owners.

• Pros: good sushi
• Cons: I never eat the raw fish at this esgtablishment

I feel sick...

by Btw911

Sushi boat is an absolutely amazing place if you have no standards in the quality of your sushi. I do not agree with some of the reviews, in that I felt the service was just fine. I was greeted promptly and felt very welcomed. HOWEVER, the sushi here is horrific. Inexperienced sushi chefs plague this establishment. You will see stacks and stacks of prefabricated sushi plates waiting to be placed on the conveyor. ABSOLUTELY NO STANDARD FOR PORTION SIZE OR QUALITY. The sushi was warm and the rice smelt like body oder (which means it has been going round and round on the conveyors all damn day!). I shared my dissatisfaction with the lady sitting next to me. The fact of the matter is that Sushi boat is just fine if you have never tasted quality sushi. I knew going in that conveyor belt sushi is typically sub prime, however, Sushi boat sushi is a JOKE. I ate there about 30 minutes ago and already I have a clammy sweat going down my forehead and my stomach is in serious pain. MUCH BETTER SUSHI ESTABLISHMENTS AWAIT YOU! SHAME OF YOU SUSHI JOKE!

Horrible Place

by marcjap

This has to be one of the worst places (period) I have ever been to. First the fish was not very fresh. Second the rice was very cheap (tasted like Korean rice). Third when I went to use the restroom one of the Sushi chef's was in there and when he was done with his business he walked out, me right behind him and he did not wash his hands in the restroom or at the sink behind the counter. Needless to say we walked out immediately.

• Pros: none
• Cons: dirty people, dirty food

Sushi for the whole family

by grambo

My family and I love this place. I have to agree with a previous rater - we've been going here since it opened, and it's still our favorite go-to place. It's a good place to try out different kinds of sushi without having to order a large serving. It's very clean, the food has always been delicious, and it's good for families, couples, or just by yourself. We highly recommend it!

Watch Out

by allen_family

The fresh (relative term) fish sits pre-made waiting way too long to go on the conveyor. Items which should be cold are not; items which should be hot are not: items which should be crisp are not. If you are new to Sushi you might try a Japanese Grill instead.

• Pros: cheap, quick, caters to those new to sushi
• Cons: poor qualily

Great for a quick meal.

by bethgr503

I have lived in this neighborhood for over 5 years and have gone to Sushi Boat since it opened. The staff is nice and very hands off so they are not constantly in your face. If you are looking for an easy quick meal (lunch, small young family) this is a good place. The sushi is fresh and the number of selections is somewhat limited but covers the basics. I think this is a great "quick" place and hope they are here for a long time. If you are looking for a swank, intimate dinner this isn't the place but otherwise I definitely recommned it.

• Pros: Quick, simple, bright, easy, cheap, very clean, good hours
• Cons: not a 4 star place but still clean and nice

Cute idea.....

by jhermens

I was excited about eating here, I thought the little boat idea was cute and it looked like a nice place to go. The Sushi wasn?t anything special for how much it was, only a little bit more per plate than other places around but that will add up very fast.

The wait staff isn?t all that attentive, only got my tea refilled once and there were only two other people in the restaurant. All together not a bad place but not as good as I thought it would be.

It not all about the food!

by jahvino

My family and I eat here quite often. The sushi is usually pretty frech and the prices are good as well. HOWEVER, the service is not great. The wait staff was friendly but not tentative, the owners, one at the cash register the other behind the bar are both unfriendly. One would think that the owners, who are there everyday would be more friendly. When customers go out or come in, they the sushi chef all say thanks or hello, but never look you in the eye. The lady behind the register never smiles and looks pissed off every time I go in. I've been going in for almost two years now and she still does not even smile!

The sushi is nice, just need to work on the customer service.

• Pros: good sushi, fast, mostly fresh
• Cons: service needs help, owners need to smile, service service

This place is FANTASTIC!

by jwkhmp

Sushi Boat is mine and my best friend's place! We go there at least every other day. The sushi is fabulous. The little river of boats and surf boards is a huge step up from conveyer belt. The sushi makers are nice, most of them don't speak a whole lot of english, but they ALWAYS greet you when you walk in and say goodbye when you leave! The ladies that act as the waitresses are very nice, too. The pricing is from $1.75 to $2.75 a plate. Sushi Boat goes beyond just sushi, they also serve dessert. Fruit salads, cream puffs, cheese cake. They also have teryaki and soup! It's worth a try!

• Pros: Great food, nice servers, good location
• Cons: expensive, not enough parking, not big enough

Excelent Place

by mdrebin

I go there as often as I can. It is a rotation sushi place, so it may not be as "fresh" as some made-on-order places, but it is the best of it's type, hands down. I have never had bad sushi there, and the chefs and staff are very friendly. If something is not on a boat, don't be shy to ask for it.

• Pros: Friendly Staff, Inexpensive, Good Sushi
