50 Best Sushi Bars near Pennsauken

“We had a wonderful dinner and our server was very prompt, attentive and friendly. Chef did a good job. Only 2 of us at the table as a 3rd customer left after eating salad and soup because he didn't want to wait. My wife and I had appetizers which filled the gap of the wait. Far better service than our last experience at another Benihana in PA. Thank you!“

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

“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!“

“We stopped in after doing some sight seeing and the other sushi restaurant we had been recommended was unexpectedly closed. This turned out to be a great turn of events because Koto Sushi did not disappoint. We ordered the salmon sushi entree and the toro nigiri. The salmon was absolutely delicious and fresh, the rice was also some of the best sushi rice I have ever had. The toro was excellent and beautifully prepared. We were sad to have missed out on the uni, but the very kind owner explained to us that the order had not yet come in which is understandable and not at all his fault. The atmosphere was impeccable with fun music playing at a comfortable volume. The restaurant had soft lighting and comfortable seating. We would absolutely love to come back!“

“I came here to eat with my girlfriend, and we also ordered takeout a different day. We both agreed this is the best sushi we had so far here in the city. Lived here for 5 years, and the sushi and sashimi here are great and taste fresh. The takoyaki unfortunately was very cold when we got it, but I understand it's takeout and would be better in the restaurant. Definitely give this place a try.“

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

“What is the specialty of this sushi restaurant?“

“I went Friday the 6th to celebrate my friend turning 18. Not my usual scene but the food was amazing. We all got different types of dishes and the adults loved their drinks. I got sushi and it was out of this world. The music was a little loud for my taste but still enjoyable. Kirsy was our server, she was excellent. She was so sweet and attendant to our party of 7. Even the bathrooms were clean and adorable!! If you're looking for a fun night out with good music and even better food and service, this is definitely the place to go.“

“Delicious food, attractive atmosphere.“

“Best sushi in all of Philly! I eat here every time I come to visit my sister!“

“We went friday between 4-6pm and had 3 vegetarian rolls and 2 regular sushi rolls. The food tasted pretty good but really it was filling. Typically my husband can eat several regular rolls so the fact that 2 satisfied was impressive!
Food was made very quickly as well which was a bonus considering the parking is paid street parking or paid garage parking
Presentation was very thoughtful.
Staff is very attentive and the space is quiet and calm. Its a more intimate setting with dim lighting but the lighting was a little too dim for me.“

“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!“

“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!“

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

“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! ⭐️“

“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.“

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

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

“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.“

“The food here is absolutely worthy of a Michelin star. Everything was fresh, unique, explained well, and, most importantly, delicious! I love how they’d rather you be comfortable eating than for you to pretend like you know what you’re doing. Everyone is treated equally here whether you’ve tasted ponzu sauce or not. They will explain what you’re eating and how to eat each course. I recommend this place for people who don’t mind spending on quality and who have a pallet sensitive enough to appreciate refined Japanese cuisine. I removed a star from their service because apparently they do something nice for people on their birthdays, and we were skipped, although it was noted in our reservation. Recommend pairing sake and whiskey to go with the Wagyu. You won’t regret it! Also, go check out the bathroom while you’re there! They really brought the best parts of Japan to Philly!“

“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“

“Great service and excellent food!“

“Super Volcano Roll was excellent!!!“

“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!“

“Excellent service! The platter was wonderful—everything was delicious and fresh. The delivery was right on time. Thank you!🩷“

“great people and great food“

“All the food was ridiculously good. Spicy edamame, purple fries, teriyaki chicken bowl, golden salmon roll, meet me in summer roll, kani salad, shoyu ramen bowl, chicken katsu. The spicy edamame was not too spicy. And although I don't enjoy fruit in sushi, the meet me in summer roll was yummy! It was a nice easy walk to our hotel Sonesta.“

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

“I love Sushi Express! They such a variety and the prices are so reasonable. So fresh and delicious! Give them a try, you won't be disappointed.“

“Went here for a little sushi date. Perfect spot.

Not too fancy, also not too casual.

Arrived around 8:30 PM - they said that they typically close the kitchen around 9:00 PM, so it was “last call,” but they also didn’t make us feel rushed.

Fei, our server, was incredible - extremely friendly, attentive, and social.

I’ll definitely be back!“

“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.“

“Watami Sushi is a great little sushi place. Amazing service from the waitress, and the sushi always tastes so fresh! ☺️“

“Holy god I have never had ramen and pork buns so good!
Not to mention they had a playthrough of final fantasy 7 remake on the tv!
I usually never finish ramen bowls and I cleaned it out. Both my guest and I had the same immediate reaction after eating the pork buns which was “this was absolutely incredible!”“

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

“Always love this place. I try to visit every time I’m in Philly.“

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

“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.“

“They served us some of the best quality sushi my family and I have ever had.👌“

“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.“

“Amazing“

“Went today for lunch. They started lunch service a few weeks ago. It was delicious and very fresh! We ordered an assortment of apps and rolls. Enjoyed them all. Was not crowded but as word spreads that they are open for lunch now I expect that will change! Look forward to visiting again.“

“After dropping off a present to my fiancé, I decided to stop by a grab a bite to eat. hibachi steak and shrimp and a to go order of snow crab Naruto. Today was extra special, because I literally had the best waiter I’ve had at any restaurant I’ve been to. Your waiter Nick deserves a lot of praise and credit for his work ethic and manners. Can’t wait to stop by again.“

“Amazing food and service!

I ordered the mushroom gyoza (steamed), crispy rice, single sashimi, treasure roll, and crispy chocolate wonton.

I would definitely come back and get the mushroom gyoza again. If you love mushroom, definitely order this! The crispy rice was also amazing.
All the fish melted in your mouth. The chocolate wonton wasn’t my favorite but it was an innovative concept and nice to try something new.“

“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 ❤️“

“I've been to this restaurant a few times as my friend introduced it to me + it never disappoints. The first time I went on my own after church I tried Sushi for the 1st time I had Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and a salmon cucumber rolls and they were so good my favorite is the Philadelphia Roll. Today I went w/ my friend and we had the Chicken Urbon Ramen soup (hopefully I spelled right, haha!) it was so good ☺️. Totally recommend 😉“

“The absolute best handrolls I have ever had and will ever have!!! I ordered the spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and spicy yellowtail handrolls. The rolls taste extremely fresh and the housemade soy sauce is incredible. The service is quick! I can't wait to come back.“
