“Delicious sushi- every time, definitely best in the Island! Highly recommended, 5 stars! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“The food??? AMAZING!! The chicken wings got so much flavor and the rice is perfectly seasoned not too much not too little. Now my favorite thing??? That shrimp tempura poke bowl is AMAZINGGG. I literally will gladly take that 16 minute drive any day. Edit: ordered again today, got the same bowl but with brown rice due to diabetes, was SUPER GOOD. Will never complain !“

“The food is good as always“

“Awesome menu, great vibes and really tasty food. Must try this place.“

“I had the Tomo roll. Best roll I ever had. Great combination of flavors.“

“I had an intimate birthday dinner at Uchi recently. This restaurant has been on my “want to go” list for quite some time, and I was not disappointed in the slightest. From the bold yet harmonious flavors of the nigiri to the delicious appetizers and small plates to the friendliness of the staff, I was so glad they opened up a location in Philadelphia. Highly, highly recommend. If I wasn’t from out of town, I’d be a regular.“

“Ordered Shiso for delivery on Saturday night after reading some glowing reviews online and it did not disappoint - will be my new go-to for sushi takeout. Got the Chef's choice sushi and tuna/aji sushi and every piece was amazing and so fresh. Also got the spicy tuna crispy rice (don't have a photo) but would skip this next time, it just doesn't travel well. Can't wait to try Shiso in person!“

“The best ramen and the best sushi in Philadelphia! Delicious 😋 my favorite place in Fishtown“

“i think this is a sushi restaurant that suits my taste buds in this place, besides that the place is also clean and very comfortable when lunch time comes here♥️ the service is also good, i hope this restaurant will continue to maintain this quality...“

“Our server Martin was very attentive. We had the calamari app which was plain w goat cheese and we requested the spicy peppers on the side. The zucchini crab cake was amazing! The sea urchin pasta was also delicious and unique. I would go back here.“

“Delicious food, attractive atmosphere.“

“What is the specialty of this sushi restaurant?“

“Hands down one of the BEST sushi experiences I’ve had in Philadelphia. From the moment I walked in, I could feel the welcoming, positive energy. The atmosphere is clean, comfortable, and has such a great vibe that makes you want to slow down and truly enjoy your food.

I ordered the shrimp tempura roll — and honestly… I loved it so much that I ended up ordering TWO of them. Perfectly crispy on the outside, warm and flavorful on the inside, and made with extremely fresh ingredients. Every bite tasted better than the last. You can genuinely tell that a lot of care and pride goes into how the sushi is prepared here.

On top of that, I also ordered a shrimp avocado roll to take home, and Min was absolutely amazing. She was beyond kind, patient, and welcoming — the kind of person who makes you feel like a valued guest, not just another customer. She packed everything up quickly and neatly, and made the whole experience even better with her friendly attitude and positive energy.

This place isn’t just about great food — it’s about great people, great service, and a great overall experience. If you’re looking for authentic sushi, high-quality ingredients, generous portions, and a spot that truly cares about their customers, do yourself a favor and come here. I will 100% be back and I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

Highly, highly recommend!“

“Love the sushi and all food they have.“

“This place has the absolute BEST chicken ramen I have ever had. Such perfect broth, chicken seasoned in an ethnic indoasian blend, which is consistent every time I go! The menu is diverse and every item I have had has been delicious, including the specialty sushi rolls! This has been my go to spot for a year now for a casual meal or delivery and I would recommend anyone to try it!“

“Everything is so good! Fresh Sushi! New Batches of sushi rice everyday, love the people who work there. Friendly environment! Very Generous! Amazing Service! The only sushi spot, I enjoy eating at. Please come out and check it out yourself! Will not disappoint. Deserve a 5.0 star! ⭐️“

“Wonderful place! The service was very fast, and the food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented. The restaurant is clean, calm, and cozy — a very pleasant atmosphere. The staff was attentive and quickly cleared the dishes. One of the best Sushi restaurants in the area — highly recommend!“

“Best sushi in Philly. Super fresh fish. Very reasonably priced for what they give you. And they are pros at packaging for takeout.“

“My evening at Morimoto‘s will be the best memory of my visit to Philadelphia! If I was a local, I’d be in to have their Wasabi Watercress Caesar salad at least once a week. Brilliant! Service was excellent, all the food was lovely, and the restaurant itself, with its soft jewel-tone colors and wave-like forms, was a delight to be in.“

“Just ordered their 3 hibachi grill and shrimp sashimi, soooo good!!! New favorite place!!“

“In Love with this place. As far as I’m concerned, NUMBER 1 in the USA!“

“think of sushi in a bowl concept _ healthy portions of fish or chicken accompanied by greens and veggies“

“We visited Hiroki for a special occasion. My wife had just given birth and, after nine months, was finally able to enjoy sushi again. The food was outstanding as always. It was fresh, beautifully prepared, and consistently high quality. The staff was also professional and attentive, just like the last time we were here.

One small note: One of the waitresses had a noticeable sniffle and sounded congested. She did not cough and made an effort to keep a reasonable distance, so I do not want to fault her. However, as a new parent, hearing someone continuously sniffling does make me nervous. If this comes up in the future, I would appreciate the staff considering simple precautions like offering or using a face mask to help guests feel more comfortable.“

“Delicious! My husband and I just had some of the most amazing sushi we've ever tasted. The edamame was perfectly cooked, the miso soup was flavorful with tender seaweed, and the wasabi was real wasabi“

“Love love 💕 Great Atmosphere, wonderful, loved food(:“

“We happened upon this gem purely by chance. We had an amazing meal from A-Z (!!!) The sushi is phenomenal; sit at the newly designed sushi bar in the back and enjoy unique daily catches that come in through the connections the owner has with local fishermen. The restaurant is also known for their aged steaks, and Kobe prime rib, which we will try next time. I had the miso black bass and it was one of the best flavors with fish I have ever had. The broth had such a delicate shiitake mushroom flavor, which I loved. I literally couldn’t have had enough of this delicate, delicious dish. I could have had two orders and eaten it all! I think this dish epitomizes what the word UMAMI means. I also had the sautéed mushroom extravaganza, a treat for every taste bud of incredible flavors melted with a delicate sauce. My husband had their unique collection of sushi and sashimi choices that were all enjoyed at their stunningly beautiful sushi bar, complete with two young, passionate chefs who love what they do, and treasure their personal designs of the fish and rolls. All the rolls are presented in this great wooden cradle design, which I thought was so unique and functional. The owner was all smiles and genuinely happy to have had us try his new restaurant. I recommend it highly for either an exceptional steak meal (all are btw, so reasonably priced so order them for sure), or the traditional sushi. You won’t be disappointed. This will be our weekly go-to restaurant and we are counting the days until we will return, which actually will be next Tuesday the 9th! Bravo to the whole team at Umami and thank you for your passion for Japanese food, and for doing it right from A-Z. We will see you soon! Debbie and Gene“

“great people and great food“

“Everything was so good. No fishy or stale flavors. Staff were very friendly and very informative on all the different types of sushi. Will be coming back. The A5 Wagu Uni hand roll was amazing!“

“First time ordering from this place, and they serve high quality sushi and food at affordable prices! I've had the salmon rolls as of today, and they are healthy and delicious! The tempura vegetables were quite delectable, and the miso soup was excellent! Friendly service and excellent food!“

“Confession: I didn't get a single photo because the food was so unbelievably good and I was starving!
Every bite, from the yellowtail jalapeño appetizer to the spicy salmon roll, was pure satisfaction .
Pro Tip: Order the House Hot Sake!“

“The Lunch bentos are one of the best lunch deals in Philly!“

“I ordered several party trays from Tokyo Sushi and it was an amazing experience.
Everything was incredibly fresh, and the presentation was beautiful. As soon as I put the trays out, everyone was impressed!

The staff was very friendly and helpful, and there were so many great options to choose from. Everyone at the party found something they loved, and the vegetarian options were especially well done and thoughtfully prepared, which I really appreciated.

Great quality, variety, and service all around!
I would absolutely order from them again for future gatherings and highly recommend their catering.“

“So happy I made this discovery! Black garlic ramen was delicious! They have probably the best bubble milk tea I’ve ever had. Wish they had another location in West Chester!“

“Got the shrimp teriyaki bento box. Portion was massive. Came with some tempura pieces including a big shrimp tempura. The shrimp was cooked good on both. Rice was cooked good. Not dry or too wet. Came with some dumplings too. Would order again! Maybe would get beef next time. There’s a bunch of different options.“

“Had shrimp chow mein , son had general pso, and hubby had sesame chick n combos !!! Very tasty , best we have had !!!!!“

“A great place to take friends. Never disappointed!“

“Quiet little spot In a strip mall. Vegetarian Sour Soup was tasty. Gyoza were out of this world. Some places dont get the filling or the dipping sauce right but WG did it right. Kani salad was great. I also had a spider roll - I will definitely return“

“A gem in south philly and definitely the best sushi in the area. Super friendly service, always easy to get a table, and BYOB is a plus. The salmon lover's sushi entree is my go-to and is accompanied by a salad and soup. Haven't been disappointed with any of the rolls - always the perfect rice-to-fish ratio and all of the ingredients are super fresh.“

“I have been passing this over a while I have a craving for sushi I tell you what it was AWESOME!!! the staff AWESOME!! the service AWESOME!! if you like that cui·sine it's the place to dine or take out“

“Amazing“

“My boyfriend and I wanted to try something new in the Northern Liberty area as we frequent the area quite a bit, and decided to give Yanaga a try. After just one dine in experience, it's become one of our new favorite spots to eat, and it's definitely on the restaurant rotation for when we go out to eat!

The place is very decked out with anime stickers, manga panels, and the like, while also playing different kinds of anime on the TVs they have on premise. I really recommend the spot, for just the food alone even if you don't like anime.“

“Had a great time! Dinner was delicious! Was there to celebrate my niece’s birthday. Very friendly staff and pleasant atmosphere. Also loved the BYOB. Great experience ❤️“
