50 Best Sushi Bars near Glenolden

“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 five different rolls alongside an avocado salad. My girlfriend praised the salad, saying it was one of the best she's ever had. I was the one mainly eating the rolls, and I've got to say that the fish tasted very fresh and of high quality. Great food and service. Highly recommend!“

“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!“

“Came in close to closing time and I genuinely felt bad about it, but the staff was so gracious and got our orders in super fast. The inside is small, maybe 20 to 25 people max. We ordered a salad to share and five special rolls. The fish was super fresh and really plentiful in each roll, and everything was filling and delicious. Vegetarian options are available too which is always a plus. Huge thank you to the workers who took care of us and stayed a little past closing. Will definitely be back and plan to BYOB next time. Highly recommend!!“

“Delicious food, attractive atmosphere.“

“What is the specialty of this sushi restaurant?“

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

“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!“

“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!“

“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.“

“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! ⭐️“

“Been here twice already (one time last week and today) and the quality/service is unbeatable!! I promise you, every bite you take…it’s going to be so fresh. One dish that was a letdown was the miso soup. I wish it had more flavor. Overall, everything was really good and we can’t wait to come back again!

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

“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.“

“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!“

“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.“

“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 forgot to get photos because I ate my food so fast but it was delicious! I got the Ex-Girlfriend roll with no eel sauce and it was a very generous portion. It was freshly made and tasted like it.
Theres only about 3-4 tables with about 4 chairs each indoors. There are approximately tables available outdoors for when the weather permits.
The interior was clean and bright.“

“Hey get there fast
This seems to be a family owned well run restaurant
After landing in philly and resting a few hours i walked to the acme from my airbnb for wine and minor things but i saw fuki sushi was across the street along side the peruvian chicken joint. I got a couple pieces of chicken from the peruvian chicken joint (i will review them on another post) and i decided to eat at fuki sushi and let me say i was no ways disappointed. This joint is slamming and smacking. I had a Japanese lycee soda (with the marble in it) but i lost the smacker for the marble so the waiter said i will bring you another no sir just charge me for both and we good. I love lycees but this had the slight flavor of lycee but it will have to do until i get back to the east.
The food
I had pan fried chicken pot stickers which were so delicious
I had the dragon roll sushi which was busy spicy hot and flavorful
It was all so good
This place was busy with lots of take out orders
But i recommend grabbing a table
Eating and enjoying the meal immediately
I will return before i leave but this place is a 5 star joint
Enjoy“

“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.“

“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!“

“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“

“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.“

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

“Exactly what you're looking for if you want take-out sushi, or just a quick sushi bite. It's not going to blow you away or anything, but it's GREAT portions, for a very solid price, and IMO, as I said, exactly what we're looking for when we want take-out sushi. We will definitely be coming here again. Oh, and the people working there are quiet but extremely nice and respectful. Can't wait to come back.“

“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!“

“Our first time, We got 6 rolls some sushi and some pan seared dumplings. OMG SO GOOD, we loved everything! It was so delicious! The Tuna, Salmon, eel, shrimp everything was so fresh it melted in your mouth, absolutely amazing! Even the presentation made my mouth water!
Definitely our new go to for sushi takeout.
Vic’s 👍👍“

“This was my first there the food was great .Fast serving an very nice an clean.I think I be back again 🥢😋“

“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.“

“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!“

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

“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.“

“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.“

“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 😉“

“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.“

“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.
The vibe is authentic. It's a nice relaxing place to have a great meal.
I highly recommend this restaurant.

“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!“

“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♥️“

“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!“

“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.“
