1225Raw Sushi & Leda’s Cocktail Lounge

Sushi is outstanding. Happy hour menu is excellent. This was our go to restaurant but the service is beyond terrible. Last few times they’ve been understaffed, got the order wrong multiple times, and straight up forget about you. I have to bribe people to go here now because I love the food but the service is the worst.

Just a heads up to anyone heading here that it appears to have been abandoned as of this past week at least — but that’s not reflected in the open hours. (If it ever reopens, the food was actually quite good - but there’s no service or atmosphere at the moment)

The sushi was surprisingly good. I would like to acknowledge their spicy tuna which is a standard roll for most sushi fans. The wasabi was also fresh.

On the other hand, our dining experience was not good. We waited in limbo at the empty host stand for 10 minutes and were not checked in.

We were never given plates, the soy sauce was served to us in individual take out packets, and our water was not refilled throughout the meal.

Unfortunate review for the chefs who crafted our special rolls.

I should have checked the reviews. They are no longer. Can’t tell if it’s a temporary renovation or what’s going on? They could have at least updated their info here on Google Maps, set up a voice mail instead of letting the phone just right indefinitely, disabled reservations, updated their web page, etc… very weird. Hopefully it’s temporary. Might try again on the next trip to Philly.

It's closed and they didn't bother to inform their patrons with reservations. With that lack of attention to details, no wonder they closed.

I had a reservation for 10 people for a bachelorette party, but when I arrived at the restaurant, it was closed. Apparently, all the chefs walked out on the same day (likely because of poor management). The restaurant never called to cancel our reservation, leaving us stranded to try and find a last-minute opening at another restaurant. Shame because we were excited to try this place but will never attempt to again given the poor customer service thats clearly reflected on their staff.

A big fan of sushi and the Philly foodie scene here.

I’d skip this place if I were you. The shrimp tempura roll looked like something out of a grocery store. The food was very overpriced and truly not spectacular .

We arrived about an hour prior to closing and felt extremely rushed out by the staff. We had employees sweeping around us, checking if there was anything else we wanted “so we can close things up” we were told. We felt very rushed and very not welcome.

The drinks…….. I had a martini that sorta tasted like fire water, it wasn’t great, my friend had a beer which was a little flat .

I feel you’ll find much better sushi in Philly elsewhere ?

Amazing experience great teamwork and food. I enjoyed the atmosphere and the nurturing attentiveness of the waitress. Everyone was willing to serve and ensure a wonderful experience. The art on the wall was awesome. Setting was intimate and the sushi waz amazing. Very well plated. Worth the experience. Thank you!

Got both a special roll (Fire Dragon) and a basic roll (Salmon Avocado) and both were really delicious! Customer service was also excellent. Low key and cool vibes as well. Definitely recommend!
