49 Best Sushi Bars near Drexel Hill

“Was so relaxing food great, place clean, staff very courteous service with friendly…“

“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.“

“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.“

“I had such a great experience at Akina Sushi. The food was fresh, beautifully presented, and honestly exceeded my expectations. You can really tell they care about quality—everything tasted clean and well-balanced, especially the sushi.

What made the experience even more special was the service. The owner was incredibly kind and welcoming, and even generously offered us drinks, which was such a thoughtful touch.

It’s not easy to find a place that delivers both great food and genuine hospitality, but Akina definitely does. I’ll absolutely be coming back and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great sushi spot.“

“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“

“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!“

“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.“

“First time here, but not the last. Christmas Day and reservations were on time. Service, presentation and taste were great. Portions were generous- we shared desserts and still had plenty, leftovers became to go for a tasty lunch the next day.“

“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 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.“

“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!“

“Great service and excellent food!“

“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“

“I have ordered from sushi nami probably 6 times already and every single time the food is always amazing! I love how close it is to my job as its right across the street from my work and I couldnt be happier with how satisfied I am whenever I order food here. Love this place!“

“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!“

“This place is a rare gem! Fantastic. They have the freshest fish and seafood, vegetables, and fruits. The exceptional quality doesn't stop there. You have knowledgeable people to help you create masterpiece fish-based meals. I wrote to them by email early in the morning about what I needed. I received a quick response with assurance that I could get the head and bones needed for stock and a sturdy white fish for the Belgian stew (Waterzooie). Not just any fish heads and bones, but the choice known to make the BEST stock: flounder. With this as the base of a fantastic stock, Philly Lobster had beautiful monkfish filets for the stew. This, too, is the best choice for Waterzooie. John at Philly Lobster had done the online inquiry and knew exactly what I needed. The results were outstanding and I could not have done it without the wonderful help from John at Philly Lobster. It is a small, priceless business I value. There is no other place like it on the Main Line.“

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

“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!“

“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!”“

“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.“

“Well made & seasoned. Created quickly with precision. My daughter asked for her 13th Birthday dinner to be ordered from here. They even have a Birthday roll which was fantastic. They gave the birthday girl an extra pastry & what we can only describe as a special Birthday roll/cake. See pic. Highly recommend.“

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

“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.“

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

“Best sushi I’ve ever had! Everything is incredibly fresh and high quality. They always include a complimentary salad and miso soup, which is such a nice touch. Delivery is super fast, the flavors are perfect, and you can really tell they care about quality and consistency. I 100% recommend this place — absolutely amazing every time!“

“Excellent Sushi! Order at home and they’ll give you a pretty accurate time estimate for pickup via text! They do have a few tables inside and out as well!“

“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.“

“Nestled in the charming heart of Chestnut Hill, Tokyo Sushi at 8221 Germantown Ave offers a truly wonderful dining experience. The location itself is fantastic – perfectly situated to capture the vibrant, yet relaxed, atmosphere of the avenue.

Step inside, and you're immediately greeted by an ambiance that strikes the perfect balance between hip and cozy. The decor exudes a wonderful simplicity and cleanliness that contributes to a warm and inviting atmosphere. A real highlight is the small, yet transparent, open kitchen, which allows you to watch the father-and-son duo meticulously preparing your sushi – a testament to their dedication behind the craft.

But of course, the real star of the show is the food. From the moment your order arrives, it's clear that this restaurant prides itself on using very fresh ingredients. Every piece of sushi is a testament to this commitment – the fish gleams with top quality, and the vegetables are crisp and vibrant. The texture of each roll and nigiri is simply spot-on, especially Sushi On the Beach, a perfect harmony of tender fish, perfectly seasoned rice, and delicate nori. And the taste? Absolutely delicious. Each bite is a burst of clean, exquisite flavors that showcase the quality of the ingredients and the skill of the chefs.

Whether you're a sushi aficionado or just looking for a fantastic meal in a wonderful setting, this Chestnut Hill gem is an absolute must-visit. Highly recommended!“

“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.“

“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 gyozas are my favorite. Literally nowhere else in the area makes them like they do. They are the fried pork gyozas. They are super crispy and the sauce that comes with is delicious. I always get those then hit CinCin next door for lo mein and general tso’s. Takeout and dining in is great. The atmosphere is super cool. I’ve also gotten sushi at the counter and it was tasty. It is a tad expensive for the gyozas $6-8 for the 5 gyozas but worth it.“

“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.“

“My family and I have been a customer here for years. We met Jae right as he was opening the restaurant and have been coming ever since. We cannot recommend the sushi here enough - absolutely delicious, wide menu, and interesting special options for bigger groups. Don’t be surprised if Jae himself comes by your table to check in. Environment is also friendly for kids. Just be sure to check the operating days and hours carefully so you are not disappointed if you arrive to find it closed. Everyone in the Bryn Mawr area should try Sushi Land at least once!“

“This restaurant is a hidden gem in the city of Philadelphia. The food is fresh and delicious. The management and the staff are friendly and animated. The food prices are very affordable.

“Wednesday I came up the escalator to find that there is a buy 2 get 1 free sushi special on Wednesdays! I haven’t gotten sushi here in quite some time, but am soooo happy I did. Shrimp Tempura, Yellowtail Scallion, and Salmon rolls for $18?? And it was extremely fresh, I can’t emphasize the quality of this sushi for the price. I feel like the shrimp tempura could have been cut in larger pieces to avoid them falling apart as much but hey it’s all going in my tummy anyway.

*I ate a couple pieces before I took the picture it looked so good I couldn’t wait
*I promise you the amount of tuna and yellowtail used is not being done justice in the picture! Definitely a solid quantity of fish in the rolls.
*The people at the counter were lovely 💖

“The best budget sushi/sashimi in the city. I’ve been going here for years. Stop by biweekly to get my sashimi deluxe and enjoy it at home.
The pics are from my recent dinner for 4. We spent $150 without the tip and it was a beautiful presentation and delicious. Service, from Joanna, was great!“

“Food was super delicious and is exactly what I wxpected! Service was great, atmosphere was perfect for catching up with friends, date night and even a family night out. I definitely plan to return in the future next time I am in the area!“

“I often take my friends to this restaurant with my highest recommendations. I go their often. This recommendation is always successful. The the food there is flavorable and the crew is attentive and cooperative. always when we go to this place we enjoy a cheerful evening. warmly recommended.“

“This place is a gem. Fast and friendly service, the best ginger dressing on a house salad I have ever tasted. The freshest fish you will find on the main line. The rice was served at the perfect temperature. The owners and staff are the nicest people you will ever meet. If I could only eat at one restaurant for the rest of my life, this would be the one.“

“Here we go with another review yalllll… So I went to this establishment because JL Jupiter suggested it and let me tell you, he wasn’t wrong at allllll. The wings are something I’ve never tasted before. How you grill a fried or baked wings, I have no idea but they did it! The wings also had this slightly spicy sweet sauce on them. Although you see the hot pepper flakes on the chicken, it’s not an overwhelming spice level. It’s very subtle. Now the rice baby!!!!! The beef rice was soooo very very good and they give you a lot of it. Lastly, my daughter had a shrimp tempura roll. I know yall are saying, “sushi from a chicken joint”? Yes honeyyyyy! Don’t knock it until you try it! The roll was fresh and crispy and the sauce the out on was soooo good. The place is very small and I had to park on the side street illegally but I had someone in the car. You cannot park in 69th Street and please for the love of GOD, DO NOT DOUBLE PARK FOR YOU CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. All and all, 10/10 I highly recommend! Ok, love yall byeeeeee!“

“Went to Uni Sushi Last Week, food comes out fast and the taste is perfectly good. My child also like to eat there.“
