50 Best Sushi Bars near Ardmore

“The veggie dumplings and the seared tuna with cucumber and carrot salad were delicious. Tried my friend's California roll, which was good, too. Nice grab and go selection and you can order what you like if it's not in their refrigerated case.“

“Reliably good Japanese offering in Ardmore. Very nice ambiance in which to enjoy attentive and gracious service. Cuisine is fresh, well prepared and tasty. A pretty extensive array of menu choices. Beer served cold with an iced glass. Nice! White wine a little less chilled than ideal.“

“Izzy's is my Fri night go to after getting off the train. James, Brian, Justin and the rest of the crew provide a warm welcome and great service. The hand rolls are excellent! It's really noisy and space is tight, and every once in a while I meet someone new for an interesting conversation. And it's just fine with everyone if I roll up with my New Yorker magazine for a quick bite on the way home!“

“What is the specialty of this sushi restaurant?“

“My family and I went to Uchi over Labor Day Weekend and even though it was a busy Saturday night, the service was amazing and everything we tried was great!! The dishes were unique and high-quality. Both the happy hour menu and the regular menu were great. Hope to be back soon.“

“This higher end Japanese restaurant is a great find! Absolutely top notch sushi, with ingredients that are clearly fresh and portions that are abundant.

I also had the ribeye/beef broth ramen and it was outstanding, among the best ramen I’ve ever had in the city.“

“My partner and I’s favorite sushi spot, and seems like it’s not as well known yet so makes for an easy to talk date night. (It definitely deserves recognition!) We go for the food which is always great, with many sushi options! The sashimi is always a good cut and the Godzilla roll is probably our favorite special roll. There is a variety of apps, teriyaki and vegetarian options too. Jay, who greets you and is your waiter is AMAZING. He’s very sweet and seems happy to see us, it is worth it to come just to meet him. They are BYOB but also have a nice sake selection.“

“Loved this place. This place was packed and I was so lucky to have a reservation for my date. We loved the food, not even lying when I tell you it was the freshest sushi I’ve had in a while. We went on the 17th and it was super busy, the staff worked so hard and still made us feel so welcomed.“

“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.“

“One evening, I passed by and decided to try the food. At every Japanese restaurant I visit, I usually order the salmon teriyaki, so I ordered it here as well. It was the best salmon teriyaki I’ve ever had — absolutely delicious.
The staff was very nice and friendly. He handled the hosting, serving, and even made the sushi himself. Great food and great service!“

“The best! Our weekly go to!“

“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!“

“We had a really good experience dining here! The highlights of the dining were definitely the staff and the food quality. The service was excellent—the staff was incredibly attentive throughout our meal. The sushi was absolutely outstanding and fresh. The only downside to our meal was the fried rice, which wasn't that great and lacked the same level of flavor as the rolls.
That being used, the fantastic sushi and top-notch service more than made up for it. I would definitely recommend this restaurant!“

“This place is a hidden gem. The food was exceptional and the selection was plenty. What pushed this experience to five stars is Abel (the owner), he was super friendly and accommodating. He allowed us to sample some high-quality alcohol and even gave us free trinkets at the end of dinner. Would highly recommend giving this place a visit!“

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

“Great sushi and wonderful atmosphere.“

“Philly Lobster is simply the best! Everything is always incredibly fresh and delicious. The teriyaki salmon is outstanding, and the string beans are amazing—The staff is always friendly and helpful, and the quality is consistently excellent. We’re so lucky to have Philly Lobster nearby. Highly recommend!“

“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! ⭐️“

“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!“

“Ordered takeout and the portions are very generous and food was delicious! They even put in some extra and could tell they packed the bag with thought and care with the handwritten note. My go to Asian takeout spot for both sushi and Chinese in Havertown“

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

“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“

“My experience at Tataki was overall really good! I came here with three friends and all the starters were a hit! I highly recommend the ube fries they come with a really good special sauce! Service was amazing the manager gave us a free ice-cream highly recommend.“

“Great food. Best at Specialty rolls rather than classics tho. Chipped dishware is way too common though. that exposed ceramic can cause silica contamination and speed up damage to the dishes or cause mold growth. Can also be kinda loud. But good service and food.“

“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.“

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

“The fish is always of a very high quality. The sushi rice varies from good some days to average other days (when average it appears to be slightly undercooked). My opnion only.“

“Best tasting sushi I've ever had. The presentations are also excellent. The Chefs make the sauces by hand.“

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

“Its such a cute little place and our sushi was delicious!!! Sitting in was comfortable and the staff are nice! I will be making more visits in my future.

What we ordered: Mango Tango Roll, South Philly Roll, and Alaskan Roll“

“Wow! This is a hidden gym sushi restaurant! I was not expecting much, we came for lunch service and it was a bit empty but the sushi is really REALLY good! It’s very fresh, prepared nicely, and the lunch specials are priced appropriately. We will definitely return.“

“a little on the pricier side for hand rolls but super delicious and good quality, makes a good meal for a celebratory dinner or special occasion. must must must eat the miso butter cod, literally ordered like 3 just for me because it's that delicious!! pricey, but good service and great food, must try at least once“

“Great service and excellent food!“

“I really liked this place. The service was great, and the interior was clean and pleasant. I also enjoyed the somewhat quirky names of the menu items. It wasn't very crowded at lunchtime, so I thought it would be a good spot to get some work done. After my meal, I had a drink from the Gong Cha next door; the service was quick, so I’d recommend it to anyone looking for something sweet after eating.“

“Fiancé and I stopped by because our other meal plans fell through. He’s had ramen before I have not. For my first experience it was absolutely fantastic! Tiny out of the way place which was cozy, sushi and sashimi were excellent and fresh, spicy miso ramen was unbelievable!! Portions were large as well so come hungry!! The young man that served us was very courteous and friendly! We will definitely be back!!!“

“We stopped here for lunch and had their lunch special. The food was fresh and delicious! The portions were larger than we expected for the price too. Our Katsu bento box had a variety of yummy goodness. Can't wait to return- highly recommend.“

“Cat was actually the most amazing wonderful human ever!! Staff was so helpful and wonderful that went above and beyond to help. Cat cares so much about every customer and strives to provide meaningful and empathetic service. I really hope she gets all the appreciation she deserves.“

“The salmon is always incredibly fresh, and the prices are very reasonable. The restaurant has a beautiful atmosphere, making it a great place to relax and enjoy a meal. My coworkers and I come here often for lunch or dinner, and we’ve always had a great experience. Friendly service, delicious food, and a welcoming environment. Highly recommend!“

“I went for a dinner. I was impressed with authentic Japanese taste offered here. Portion size is very satisfying. Good sushi, ramen noodles were authentic. Pork slices on top were delicious. I ordered takeouts of guidon and curry. I'd come back there when I am in the area next time. It seems majority of people are ordering pickups. Many customers came to pick up their orders. The dining space is nicely prepared and the room ready for anyone to come and dine.“

“Toyosu offers attractive, delicious sushi, sashimi, and poke, with a focus on take-out customers—if you opt to eat at one of the few tables available, you will still receive and consume your food in plastic containers. However, you probably won’t mind because you’ll be too busy devouring crisply presented morsels of fish, prepared by aces with big-league experience.“

“We had 9 people in our party and went for HH/dinner. Food and drinks were delicious. Sushi had big pieces of fish and was very fresh. Servers were attentive and even realized we were celebrating a birthday so they surprised us with a dessert. I thought that was super nice of them. Definitely will recommend“

“Everything is fresh and delicious! Atmosphere is very friendly, they treat you like family!“

“Tuna Bar is one of my favorite restaurants! Especially love that cocktail with the gin wasabi & cucumber 🍸😍🍣“

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

“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.“

“My husband and I come from Atco nj and will not go anywhere else! We get the California rolls they are amazing!and the fried rice out of this world. and the bartender is right there getting you anything you need at an instant! Our very happy date night♥️“
