19 Best Sushi Bars in Baltimore

“Our favorite local sushi place. Rolls are cheap, but not TOO cheap - quality is good, and we've always enjoyed our meals. I prefer to take my wife for date night - this is six regular rolls, and on the boat without asking for a boat! We love Yama!“

“Food:The sushi here is so good. It's some of the best I've had since moving to Baltimore. My favorite (so far) is the R (Roll) Lewis. The unagi and soft shell crab are also wonderful.Service:The server was attentive, never letting our water run out. Our food came out quickly, and the extra roll we ordered before we left arrived fast and packaged well.Atmosphere:We didn't get to see the whole restaurant, as we sat near the entrance. The chair felt a bit uncomfortable. But other than that, the atmosphere was pleasant and inviting.“

“NUT ALLERGY ALERT. there were nuts in the salad dressing. I believe peanuts. I'm super allergic to that. I couldn't even enjoy my food. I got sick to the point i couldn't stomach anything. My mother said her food was really good. But I'm very upset that a restaurant would put nuts in a dressing that I've had millions times over and never had an issue at any other restaurant. It should be listed on the menu as peanut allergies are super common in American. They didn't charge me for the salad. But still. I couldn't eat my sushi“

“I got the deluxe poke bowl and it was so good! Great value, attention to detail and very high quality fresh ingredients- so happy they are in the airport. Grabbed a tea and an onigiri for my flight! If you are a sushi fan and in the Bwi airport stop by and grab a meal- it will not disappoint!!“

“I had a random craving for sushi and my normal go to carry out place had stopped taking orders for the night, so I decided to order from Arigato. I'm so glad I did! The pearl river roll here is my favorite to date I've had from any sushi restaurant. The side order of fried rice was so huge I ate leftovers for two days. The spicy mayo actually has quite a kick to it and is so much better than the run of the mill sauce served at other places. Absolutely delicious!“

“Finally some good sushi in Baltimore! I’ve been looking for a ‘can’t miss’ sushi restaurant that isn’t crazy expensive like RA or Azumi, and I’ve finally found it in Naked. Ability to take away, great cocktails, friendly staff, and they validate parking. Just off the main strip so not crazy busy or crowded. A true gem! Amazing!!!“

“It's been a long time since I've been to Aloha Sushi in Baltimore, since before the pandemic. decided to try them for lunch and the experience was good! apparently the sushi roller, Rajesh, is back, after they changed management. I had the lunch special for the Salmon roll, the tuna role and the Boston roll! it was good and hit the spot. definitely coming back for a date, Mount Vernon is one of my favorite spots.“

“Our daughter loves sushi and this is her absolute favorite sushi restaurant. We’ve been here a number of times and the staff is always amazing, as is the food. Today was my daughter’s 5th birthday and when we asked her where she wanted to go for dinner, she told us Mizu Sushi. I’m pretty sure she’d make us take her there every day for their Philly roll and miso soup if she could. Absolutely cannot recommend this place enough. Just wonderful. (Also, my favorite is their Maryland roll. It’s soooooo good!)“

“I love this place so much! Fresh sushi right by the waterfront, what more could you ask for? I also get the miso soup everytime, which is delicious and flavorful. The ambiance is great, especially with the beautiful views of the waterfront. Service is prompt and friendly, though the place can get somewhat crowded during peak times (Friday & Saturday evenings).“

“Have been to this pub three times and have been very happy with the food and service each time. The crab tots are a great appetizer and almost too good, as we ended up finishing that appetizer and struggling to finish our main courses. The sushi burrito was well prepared and fresh, although I wish it was a little larger. The sushi bowl, with the Smaltimore Bowl being my choice, was also great, with a solid portion of salmon and tuna and fresh ingredients across the board. The service was also top notch.“

“Great sushi and great Chinese also at reasonable prices! I've been getting sushi at Sakura for a while but tonight we also got General Tso's and it was really good and the portion was huge! I dont think Sakura gets the street cred in Annapolis that it deserves- Its a cozy spot with great food and great views of downtown! Now I can't wait for our leftovers tomorrow!“

“Went for the omakase on a Thursday lunch.Clean, firm, deeply-colored fish. Rice was well-seasoned. The chef added subtle but flavorful twists or garnishes to each nigiri. Finished us off with two delicious maki made from fresh scraps of tuna and salmon.The place was empty during our whole visit, which was surprising given how much we enjoyed the meal. Notably, the portions were quite large. Don’t underestimate this one - you will be full after!“

“Good Day Everyone,I have come to this place twice since it opened. The place was clean and smelled wonderful. Every employee was nice and greeted me with a smile. The food I purchased was hot and delicious!! I recommend this place 100%. If you are a sushi lover, I fell in love with the Chesapeake roll, and definitely recommend it.“

“Baltimore y’all are sleeping on this place and I don’t know why. I picked up an order at 6:30 and there was no one in the restaurant. Why?? This sushi was some of the best I’ve ever had. Their shrimp dumplings with homemade dipping sauce and fresh garlic were fantastic. The egg drop soup was peppery and smoky. Everything was phenomenal. The staff was incredibly kind. 1000% will be coming back. Thanks Chiu’s Sushi for a delightful meal!“

“Chiyo Sushi in Mt. Washington is a true gem, offering a warm welcome and an authentic Japanese dining experience. The menu features a delightful mix of traditional sushi and innovative dishes, all showcasing the freshest ingredients. The standout for me was the Roast Duck and Dragon Roll, a testament to the chefs' creativity and attention to detail.“

“I enjoyed everything about this place. Get there and there were no other customers in the restaurant, so it was very quiet. Had a few rolls and an order of the shrimp and vegetable tempura. The eel rolls never disappoint but the tempura was more veg than shrimp. Nothing tasted past it's prime and price was not bad either. Overall food was decent but I really like the environment. Sat by the window and wasn't pressured to leave after eating must have spent two hours just chatting away before realizing still hadn't gotten the check.“

“Great food for a quick bite. Huge menu with many options. Yes, it's very kid-friendly since they have so many options! Noisy and sparse, lots of people get takeout. The Chinese food i had was great, although i guess they were out of mu shu pancakes and wrapped up 1 large wheat tortilla instead, i guess they figure i won't know the difference? The chicken was really good though.Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly but adults are fine too“

“Our waiter Jasper was very pleasant and attentive throughout our meal. He was casual yet professional and knowledgeable about the menu and offered great recommendations. The food was absolutely delicious. Me and my friend both had the Miso Cod as an entree and shared the Rock Fish tempura and the crispy rice with tuna. My experience was top notch and I will definitely be back.“

“Matsuri Japanese Restaurant is a must-visit for delicious food and a great vibe. The Matsuri Special Roll is a standout--so flavorful! The staff are friendly and welcoming, making it a top spot for a tasty meal. Can't wait to go back for more! Thanks, Matsuri, for the awesome dining experience!“
