33 Best Sushi Bars near Ellenton

“Dining at Tsukino was an absolute delight. We ordered generously fully expecting to enjoy dinner there and still have plenty left for lunch the next day but the food had other plans. The rolls were so irresistibly fresh and flavorful that we happily polished off every last bite right at the table. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance of energy and comfort, and each dish arrived beautifully prepared and bursting with flavor. Having visited sushi bars from Japan to San Francisco, I can say with confidence that Tsukino stands out as something truly special a place where great ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and a wonderful vibe come together in the most delicious way. 🍣✨ like its name - Tsukino… the food reflects a calm, elegant, slightly mystical vibe. My new ATF!“

“Being Asian , I want to give a resounding endorsement to this Japanese food truck – it’s an absolute gem! 🍱 I opted for the chicken and Dragon sushi, and to my surprise, it could easily satisfy my soul. The food was not just delicious but also impressively fresh, served piping hot, and delivered with lightning speed. Watching the chef prepare it right before my eyes was a delightful experience, and knowing that all the ingredients were cooked to order, made it even. This food truck has quickly become my top spot, and I genuinely hope they stick around for a long time! 😊“

“An absolute culinary delight. We have been here six years and now we have finally found a Lakewood Ranch sushi house that delivers flavor, presentation, and explosions of taste. The decor is absolutely on point for Main Street. Well done, Daniel.“

“My son and dil asked me where I wanted to eat for a belated Mother's Day dinner(my choice}. I wanted to have hibachi since I haven't had it for a long time. After reviewing what was somewhat close by and reviews, I chose Izumi. So happy I did. The food was wonderful as well as the staff, drinks, and entertainment. Told them first time there and will be back!“

“My friend and I went on Saturday night. We both had a drink and ordered appetizer while looking at the menu. Our waiter was right there with our hot appetizer within minutes. We both ordered shrimp and scallops coleslaw hush puppies along with our fried calamari appetizer. Our food was one of the best we've had in and around Bradenton/Sarasota. The atmosphere was perfect and service was the best. I cant wait to go back.“

“Best Thai in Bradenton! Fast and friendly service and the most relaxing and well decorated atmosphere. Food was fantastic, portions were amazing. Highly recommend, I’ll 100% be back when I visit the area next year❤️“

“Best Place in Bradenton! I go every Monday for lunch..I have tried every place and No one can out due this place...love love.“

“Me and my family have been coming here for over a year now and it's absolutely fantastic every time. Every dish is made to order and so so fresh. We typically stick to the rice bowl options but we've tried a few other things and never been disappointed. Their egg drop soup and seaweed salad are amazing appetizers as well, and all the food comes out so fast. The owner and employees always recognize us and greet us with the biggest smile and best service. We modify our bowls to exactly how we like them (encouraged by the owner!!) and the prices are very reasonable, with only a $1 upcharge for some modifications. Plenty of meat in the bowls as well, you will never leave hungry, even if you only ate the meat with no veggies or rice. Overall, amazing customer service and some of the best chinese I've had.“

“I’ve been coming here since I was 10 years old (now 28). I dream about this place when I’m away and constantly crave it. Their sushi is so good and such high quality. The Thai food is also delicious. The atmosphere is relaxing, they always have jazz playing softly in the background. The staff are incredible, so attentive and caring. This is my favorite restaurant in the world.“

“I had the absolute pleasure of meeting the manager, Pho Street — Son — and I honestly don’t even know where to begin. From the moment we walked in, his kindness, warmth, and genuine hospitality made us feel like more than just customers… we felt like family. You can tell when someone truly cares, and Son is that rare kind of person who pours his heart into every guest’s experience.

Two years ago, I ate here for the first time… and ever since then, I have not been able to forget it. That taste stayed with me. That feeling stayed with me. I’ve been craving it for TWO YEARS. And today, I finally made the drive all the way from Bradenton just to come back — not knowing if it would still be the same… but hoping it would be.

And somehow… it was even better.

Son recommended the pho with beef bones, and I can honestly say — hand on my heart — it is the best pho I have EVER had in my life. The broth was so clear, so pure, so rich in flavor… yet so clean, with absolutely no unpleasant smell. Every sip felt comforting, like something made with patience, pride, and love. You don’t just taste this kind of food… you feel it.

My entire family was blown away. Every single person at the table couldn’t stop talking about how incredible everything was — from the fresh, perfectly made spring rolls to the variety of authentic Vietnamese dishes. And the staff? Just as amazing. So kind, so attentive, so genuine.

I’ve had pho all over the world — big cities, hidden gems, everywhere — and I can say without hesitation: this place is in my TOP 10 of all time. That’s not something I say lightly.

This isn’t just a restaurant. This is a place that leaves a mark on you. A place you think about long after you leave. A place you’ll drive miles and miles just to experience again.

Five stars isn’t enough. I would give this place 10 stars… 100 stars if I could.

If you are anywhere near here — or even if you’re not — make the trip. Come taste what real pho is supposed to be. Come experience what true hospitality feels like.

Thank you, Son. Truly. I will never forget this.“
