The fish is definitely first rate, but the portions on the oversized plastic bowls are meager. Hard to see what it was inside it, since the lids were all foggy. When asked the person behind the display, his guess was as good as mine.
For $30.00 I got about 8 miniature pieces of chopped salmon, a sprinkling of meager seaweed, some fish roe and maybe 5 soybeans, served over way too much, ill cooked rice.
The sushi is individually wrapped which is a good concept so you can choose amongst 4 different types of fishes. Got 4 total for $20, bringing my grand total to a whooping $50.
You self pay, and the shopping bag they provide one with is poorly designed: Like a half moon, with one single edge at the bottom so it never sits properly on a flat surface. And with the size of the plastic bowl the bag ended up looking like another carry on bag. Forget about bringing it on the plane.
And good luck finding a table big enough to unwrap your sushi, one by one, use the wasabi, pour the soy sauce…by the end there were too many wrappers and too much trash to dispose of.
I would recommend this place to open a food counter thus showing eco consciousness and reducing plastic waste.

I got the prepackaged tuna-only sushi box and it was pretty good. Would recommend for a grab-and-go snack. Prices are a bit crazy but that's EWR for you.

Tiny portions for ridiculous prices! And the rice is terrible, I have had microwave rice much better than this! Hopefully you read this before you get suckered like we did!

Absolutely disgusting insane they let them sell this trash! Taste like nothing, the rice should be illegal and service is so bad.

Surprised to see the reviews. Taking emotions out I ordered Sashimi fresh (not pre packaged) and it was amazing. I have traveled to Japan many times and the quality is top notch.

I loved the sushi! It’s flown in from a fish market from Japan and tastes very fresh. Also if you go to the Kaedama place that’s the food from here but in a sit down style.

Just.. no.
Hard rice. Fish doesn’t look or taste fresh. And they don’t have ginger.

If you order sushi rolls to go at the ramen restaurant in the middle of the whole global market area, they make the rolls at this place.
Met Raj, one of the chefs, who helped me get my order quickly and speaks 7 languages! The bad reviewed scared me from getting food as first but everything we had was good and fast service (on thanksgiving weekend). I got the lobster dynamite roll and my husband got the impossible burger. Def get some food here.

Better than some reviews said it was. I definitely preferred the salmon and tuna nigiri and the salmon bowl over the tuna roll mainly because it tasted fresher. The one thing about the nigiri I found annoying was that each piece was individually wrapped in plastic. Also, the avocado on the tuna roll was a bit brown. Keep in mind these are not made to order, you pick from the prepackaged items so you are limited to the selection without being able to make any modifications. It’s a bit expensive but it’s sushi at an airport so it’s to be expected. The tuna roll and nigiri plate was $24.99 and the salmon bowl I believe was $18 (the bowl came with pieces of salmon, seaweed salad, edamame, white rice and tobiko.) I personally don’t like tobiko and luckily I was able to find one that didn’t have any but I wouldn’t count on it if I returned. This is definitely a grab and go station and you pay at the self check out so if you’re in a hurry it’s still a god choice. I do hope that in the future they allow customers to order what they want vs having to choose from the items they have in the display.

I got a tuna bowl and wow it was so good. I can say it's one of the best tuna I've ever had. I was mindful about the bad reviews. I guess it had quality consistency issues. I looked into the items very carefully to make sure the rice is still fresh and etc before I buy. But honestly all of them looked good. It's also slightly more expensive because it's located at the airport, but well worth it IMO.

Absolutely terrible food. They market it as freshly prepared daily but the rice is stale and the sushi itself is mushy and tasteless. If I could rate it negative stars I would.

Rice is stiff. Fish are old. Price is high. You can get better food.

Is it sane to sell this for money? It's an insult to Japan and Asia.
