I was in this place recently and the owner Vandy was clearly sexually harassing a group of Towson students. I overheard him offering illicit substances to his workers as well. The food was awful and the restaurant has clearly not been cleaned in a long time, it was disgusting.

Excellent food. I ordered sushi and drunken noodles. Owner was also very nice and welcoming.

Uni was fresh and tasty! Avocado fries were crazy good! Lobster roll excellent! Salmon sushi was fresh large and really good! Hope they can keep this up as we are in search of a weekly sushi/sashimi establishment! Been disappointed in Towson sushi as The Orient has really gone downhill. Towson Best is a good basic sushi place we also enjoy (Mr Denny is excellent).

1 star. This place isn't clean at all. I asked for cups of water for the table and I noticed the water tasted off. I take a closer look at the water and I find specks of dust and other things floating in the water. Disgusting. I asked for another cup of water. But still the same issue but a little less. Food was OK. Drunken noodles were a bit too salty. Pad thai was very average. If a restaurant can't do something as basic as serving water right, then I can only imagine what other health violations that are lurking in the kitchen. Avoid this place.

Food was great, place looks dirty though.

This was a disaster. First and last time ordering from here. Serves me right to try a new sushi place without reading reviews. I got the combo 5 piece sushi with California roll (came with miso soup) and a salmon avocado roll. The only thing that was edible was the salmon avocado roll. Everything else was picked at or thrown out, even the soup was terrible. The sushi smelled so fishy and some pieces looked old. It was really the worst sushi I've had in a long time. Not worth the money AT ALL. So disappointed. All the sushi in the picture was thrown out. I wasn't given any chopsticks either. At this point I just hope I won't get food poisoning.

I'm split 50/50 on their food. Soup was good, sushi was decent, thai was fair at best.

I order a dynamite roll. It was a mess. Only 4 pieces? Normally a "specialty roll" like this comes in 6. It fell apart before I could even eat it. I didn't see any tuna it was only salmon and even that wasn't good. They put it over a bunch of slices of cucumbers. I honestly think it is over priced for what you get.

I had to post this because I just felt like it was sloppy and ridiculous. This is supposed to be the "Amy roll". I'm sorry but I literally did not know where to start. This is not a roll. I dug through it to try to figure out what was going on so that's why it looks so messy. Even so, it didn't look much better before I dig through it. This roll cost me $12.95 and I couldn't even eat it. I only gave 3 stars because the scallop roll was actually a roll and it was delicious.
The food and service used to be excellent but everything has gone downhill. Vandi has been crying the blues for years now about the landlord and the rent. But his real problem is his lifestyle. It's a shame he lost focus of his business because this place was one of the greats!

Went in for dinner place was the empty. No one came to the door so I walked in a little furthera girl was laying in a both listening to music on her phone. The cook in the back never looked up. I don't know if the food is good or bad but they do not seem care.

I can honestly say this is the worst sushi I've ever had. Grasping the rolls with chopsticks caused them to fall apart. The seafood used in the rolls were very bland lacking any real flavor. I found myself having to season the rolls with Oldbay, when the wasabi, soy sauce, and ginger failed to bring out any real recognizable flavor. ?????

Customer service was just satisfactory. I ordered Tempura Rolls and California Rolls. They both were very bland, almost void of any flavor especially the California, the only thing that saved the Tempura was sauce on top.
