“My husband and I love coming here for a child free date night! We’ve been enough that I think it warrants a 5 star review now because we’ve always had such a great experience from service, to food quality. We went last week and our server brought us a couple unexpected goodies which was so fun and appreciated. We will definitely be back for great sushi again. :)“

I have never left this restaurant disappointed or hungry. If I could give this place more than five out of five stars, I would. 11/10 would recommend. Some of our favorite roles include, Caribbean roll, Cancun roll, rainbow roll, just the name a few examples they’re all delicious just order whatever suits your taste, you won’t be disappointed.“

“Amazing!!! 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋😋“

“Incredible food. I miss getting their lunch specials.
Curry rice was fantastic.
I can't recommend this place enough.

In this day and age they don't have any online platforms to order from. Just good old phone in an order.

They are that good.“

“hard to get a person to answer the phone due to limited english but they’re very sweet workers and i don’t mind going in to order! i love the mabo chicken with udon but it is veeeery spicy! so i only get it on occasion! highly recommended their egg salad sandwich! it’s so good 😭“

“The Good:
They've got legit Japanese chefs and a massive menu, so you've got tons of options. The staff is friendly and they don't drag their feet getting your food out. Plus, the prices won't break the bank for most things.

The Hamachi and Katsuo no Tataki were fresh wins, the Onion-Lever is a standout with fantastic texture, and that Akadashi Miso Soup with herbs and seaweed sounds like a real treat!

The Not-So-Good:
Watch out for some misses. The Soba soup apparently has a funky, sour thing going on. The Potato Salad is a letdown in the flavor department, and the fried oysters miss the mark on texture.

The Bottom Line:
Fumi's a mixed bag. You can have a great meal here, but you've gotta be smart about what you order. Stick to the fresh fish, the Onion-Lever, and that special miso soup, and you'll likely be happy. Venture off that path, and you might end up with something you regret. Choose wisely!“

“So good. It's a place that's probably flying under the radar because of its unassuming exterior. The seafood was so fresh. 🥰“

“Very interesting menu and excellent service. The waitresses were very friendly and took time to explain the dishes. As it was the end of the lunch service we just ordered a meat bento box and the spicy Yanyeum fried chicken. Both dishes arrived quickly and we're delicious. The chicken portions were enough for 2 meals. We loved the authentic interior with souvenirs from Japan and Korea. The lady owner has travelled widely, is extremely passionate and is very keen to share her culinary experiences with clients. I highly rate this restaurant and will definitely eat here when I'm next in Cheltenham.“

“Sushi Lover is the freshest and tastiest sushi around. I have to eat here often to satisfy my cravings for it. The owner is the best as well. It's a "must try" and you will be hooked!“

“This is a family owned restaurant and our experience was wonderful. We were greeted and seated simultaneously and expeditiously. The young male server was very attentive and answered any and all our questions-and I had a lot of them. I also didn’t know the sushi role I got was uncooked, they were happy to replace it with something more satisfactory. It was my first time trying dumplings and OMG it was a 10/10!!!! I DEFINITELY will come again!!“

“Excellent cooks at the table! Was a truly entertaining experience!“

“The variety of Bingsu flavors“

“They have a drive-thru, which I found interesting for a sushi spot. We dined inside on a Saturday around 12:30 PM and were the only ones there—it seems to cater more to carry-out orders. That said, they offer some great lunch specials.
We started with the dumplings, which were fried perfectly. Then we split three rolls: the California roll was your standard classic, the fried chicken roll came in large, saucy bites, and the Salmon on the Rocks was a bit tricky to eat—the salmon didn’t stay on well.
Overall, it’s a good spot for quick, affordable sushi. I’m looking forward to trying the sushi bowl next time.“
