50 Best Sushi Bars near Glenside

“Portion sizing are very generous. Food was flavorful. I had general tso’s and my friend had Szechuan beef. Egg rolls were nice and crispy on outside, doughy on inside. Didn’t try the sushi but definitely not a bad spot for Chinese food!“

“We went here before a show at the Keswick. We arrived early enough We didn't need to wait to be seated. About an hour later that was not the case for people walking in around 630pm. We asked for one of each menus (normal and all you cam eat). We were tossed two normal menus and away the server went to retrieve our waters. My girlfriend ordered all you can eat, and I got General Tso. The main dish for her came out before her appetizers which was strange. Also, it came out separate from my meal. Both meal were very good! As for the food we loved it. Very big portions. Only complaints was my veggies surrounding my main course was not even warm. Would we go back, surely. The food was worth it. Last add in i only gave the atmosphere 2 stars as I was getting bucked like riding a bull the entire meal as the seats transfer every single movement from the couple on the other side.“

“The Mongolian Beef was absolutely fantastic! Tender slices of beef cooked perfectly with just the right amount of spice. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the staff made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely coming back for more!“

“first time ordering from there.. the food was excellent. ordering on line was easy the portions are large.. . the staff during pick up was so friendly and kind.. restaurant was very clean and in well order.. will definitely order again...“

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

“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.“

“Best meal I have had….maybe ever!“

“Love the sushi and all food they have.“

“A lowkey spot but great food and very clean. We so happened to stumble upon it and we were genuinely pleased from the 1st bite. We over heard someone picking up take out say that it was the best sushi he’s had and it was true. The price was great too. One plate of fried rice was enough to satisfy 2 people and then had about 18 pieces of sushi in total. Once finished, it didn’t make you feel sluggish and gross after eating. Great to see an owner who truly cares about their craft and customers. We’ll be back!“

“BYOB. I have yet to eat in the restaurant but we have gotten takeout multiple times and each time it has been better. Would strongly recommend trying this restaurant.“

“I had the green salmon curry and it was delicious. Delicious food and wonderful service. I would recommend.“

“We visited Hiroki for a special occasion. My wife had just given birth and, after nine months, was finally able to enjoy sushi again. The food was outstanding as always. It was fresh, beautifully prepared, and consistently high quality. The staff was also professional and attentive, just like the last time we were here.

One small note: One of the waitresses had a noticeable sniffle and sounded congested. She did not cough and made an effort to keep a reasonable distance, so I do not want to fault her. However, as a new parent, hearing someone continuously sniffling does make me nervous. If this comes up in the future, I would appreciate the staff considering simple precautions like offering or using a face mask to help guests feel more comfortable.“

“We picked up and everything was just as we ordered it!!“

“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.“

“Found this hidden gem online and gave it a shot. Me and my husband came last time and the food was great but the service was even better. Today we came again and again the service and food was great again. We had Evan as our server twice and was not disappointed. Would def come back here time and time again :)“

“My first ramen of the year and it was a yummy one for a snowy day. We didnt have to wait for a table even though we arrived an hour before closing. They have lots of options to pick from but I went with a classic Tonkatsu ramen with pork and a Ramune Melon drink on the side. The broth and noodles were nice but the pork was a little dry.
I would love to go back and try some of their sushi as well“

“I’m a sushi snob all the way from nyc and I must say this place is DELICIOUS. So many rolls, I had a hard time choosing and I wasn’t disappointed with anything! I even tried some new rolls I never had before and it totally hit the spot…So flavorful, fresh and did I mention it’s delicious??? I can’t wait to go back here next week, you’ve earned yourself a new customer who’s too tired to cook but always craving bomb sushi 💣“

“Fabulous service and fresh and delicious food! We ll be returning soon!👍🏻“

“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.“

“I’ve been coming here for a couple of years, and the owners have always been incredibly friendly. Prices were also very competitive—especially the party trays, which is why I’m still leaving this as a 5-star review.

That said, my most recent visit was a bit concerning. There have been a lot of changes lately, particularly to the menu and pricing. The menu has been streamlined and modernized, but prices have gone up significantly across the board. Party trays in particular jumped by about $15 on average, with some increasing closer to $20. Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be any noticeable increase in portion size to go along with the higher prices.

This is a bit disappointing, because competitive pricing was what really set them apart from other sushi spots. The quality has always been slightly above average, but the value was a big part of the appeal.

I’ll still be coming back, but with these price increases, other places’ party trays have definitely become more tempting.“

“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.“

“You guys never disappoint 😍 the sushi, the rock shrimp, bulgulgi, salmon, I want it all 😭 i always pick a day when you guys are closed and I break my own heart lol. Seriously, so freaking delicious and the best part aside from what I've mentioned, is the wasabi, nice and spicy 😍“

“Chinese food was great both times we got takeout. Still need to try the sushi and Japanese dishes.“

“soooo fresh and delicious.“

“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!“

“I’ve been a regular customer of Ahi Sushi for at least 10 years. I absolutely love it here. I’ve never had a bad experience. They’re always so quick and never make mistakes. The food is very delicious and reasonably priced. The staff is also so nice. I rave about this place to everyone! Amazing business.“

“Always fresh made to order food“

“The best softshell cranio I’ve ever had, even better than mine, and that’s just the beginning. Never had a bad meal here. And the crepe cakes are perfect to take home for a late dessert (or next morning’s breakfast) after some time to digest.“

“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.“

“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.“

“If it’s your first omakase experience then you’ll like it. If you’ve had more expensive omakase before, then this one doesn’t really have the same experience factor. The quality of the fish was good but it was fast(less than 1h) and felt rushed. The sushi chef didn’t really explain anything other than state the obvious name of the fish. But it’s good for the price.“

“The food was fantastic but the service was really slow. They seem to have some sort of backup in the kitchen so I may give them another shot because the food was so good. If the service repeats then I won't return again, but hoping it was a one-time deal because everything was delicious.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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!“

“Amazing Sushi!! Everything was so fresh and delicious from the soups and salads to the beautiful Sushi rolls. Will be our new go-to place now!“

“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 💖

“amazing food. extremely quick service.“

“The wife and I ordered from here tonight. the indoor atmosphere is for cozy and definitely family friendly. The guy that helped us was very friendly. We ordered appetizers which were perfect sized and delicious. The sushi rolls were the best we have had in ages. We will definitely be coming back. A++++“

“Had lunch there yesterday. The pork gyoza were delicious and so were the three rolls we ordered. The AAA roll is one of my Ooka favorites. Food arrives quickly and the wait staff are so friendly and polite.“

“Beautiful decor, very cozy and ambient. Our server was very nice and helpful, as my daughter and I have never been there. Chef Tony made us delicious sushi rolls and plated the sashimi beautifully. We had dessert, they have a variety of mochi and I had the tempura ice cream.. omgoodness it was so delicious! If you're in the area and in the mood for good food and relaxing atmosphere, stop in and tell them I sent you!“

“Great food , must have the tea cold tea .“

“I think it’s my favorite take out sushi nowadays. Yes, we haven’t been served inside but we got multiple times take out and it’s pretty consistent and delicious! You know what is my favorite - it’s Tuna Hako Maki, it’s just what you want from tuna :) Volcano Maki is not what you think it’s better! Try it! Also my child likes chicken, so we get him Chicken Katsu and its generous portion and has sides, a lot of sides: miso soup, rice and sauce, salad too. It seems a good deal for Katsu dish. We tried other rolls too, so it’s good. Definitely will be getting again.“

“My family had a wonderful time here for my son's 11th birthday! He wanted to try out the hibachi experience, so we reserved a hibachi table. There was another family at the table across from us enjoying a meal as well. The food was incredible (though not one of us managed to catch a piece of it in our mouths), my husband said it was the best meal he's had all year. The hibachi room is decorated with murals of video game & cartoon characters like Mario & SpongeBob, which was great because my son is a gamer. We brought a birthday cake in with us, and the other family joined in to sing "Happy Birthday" & shared his cake with us. The service was great. It was an all around wonderful time, & we will definitely be returning!“

“We get sushi there all the time. Always good, but tonight we tried the ramen. Very impressed. It's good to know we can get decent noodles in the area.“

“My family and I had an incredible dining experience tonight at Umai. We had a special, Kinmedai aka Golden Eye Snapper that was so fresh and tasty, out of this world good! We also had a treat with broiled tuna cheek that was also outstanding. Otoro was so velvety and rich, spicy hotate, sweet ebi, unagi, fried crabs, incredible sushi rolls, savory Akadashi (my son ordered a second it was so good) and everything else we ordered tonight was just incredible. Thanks so much to Rae and his wonderful staff for one of the best meals I've ever had - the best sushi in this area for sure and such friendly excellent service to accompany it! 🙂 Thanks for such wonderful hospitality and all the extra goodies Rae. It was wonderful to meet you and sample the fruits of your masterful culinary skills!“
