“This sushi restaurant is a must-try! The fish is incredibly fresh, and the sushi is beautifully presented and delicious. The service is efficient, and the wait times are minimal. I've had consistently great experiences here – highly recommend!“

“My husband & I are regulars! Delicious authentic Korean soups & dishes and the sushi & sashimi are amazing! You must try the Love Boat & hwoi dop bap! Owner & all staff are simply the best!!“

“My family and I travel from Morgantown, WV to Andy’s Sushi. We love the 19 piece sushi and Maki.“

“We stopped for a quick bite Friday and our sushi was absolutely delicious 🤤 Waitress was very pleasant also ! We will definitely be traveling back again soon!!“

“I 2nd the comment “Best Sushi in Pittsburgh” Fresh fresh. Sweet Potato Tempura Appetizer is the bomb. Just found this hidden gem, I’ll be coming back again & again. Must try 5 star Sushi“

“If I could give this place a million stars, I would. Hands down, this is not just my favorite sushi spot—it’s a culinary paradise. The King Kong Roll? An absolute masterpiece. I dream about it. But honestly, everything on the menu tastes like it was handcrafted by sushi gods. Every bite is a flavor explosion that’ll ruin all other sushi for you—forever.

From the moment you step in, you're greeted with warm, upbeat music and an atmosphere that's bursting with personality. There are so many quirky, fun things to look at, you almost forget you’re here for food—until the food hits the table and steals the show.

And the customer service? Impeccable. I’ve been coming here religiously since I moved in 2024, and every single visit has been perfect. The owner is always smiling, always welcoming, and it genuinely feels like you're part of something special when you walk in. You’re not just eating sushi—you’re supporting someone who puts their heart into every single roll.

Do yourself a favor—don’t walk, RUN to this place.“

“Great food I love this place“

“WOW. I ordered a sushi bowl with mixed greens, corn, kimchi, tofu, seaweed strips, wasabi, and ponzu. Soooo good! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Service was good especially considering rush. Place looks fabulous, prime photo-op location.

Drinks are somewhat limited, mostly just sweet cocktails. Would be nice to have better tap selections and Japanese whiskeys.

Food was mostly decent except for the grilled stuff like Miso Salmon - that was spectacular. It was the only thing worth the price (everything is kinda expensive).“

“Everything I've had here is absolutely amazing! Best hands down.“

“Extensive seafood menu & fresh fish sold. Soup & chowder. We had the crab cake sandwich, it was not good. $23. Fishy. It could be much better. Not sure what type of crab is used, fairly certain it was not lump crab meat? We will try a different seafood entree or sandwich on our next visit & hope for better.“

“5 star sushi and some very creative options to choose from. My 5 year old and I are the only ones in my house that like sushi so I took her on a mommy and me date here. She loved it and so did I. If you're a fan of Crab Rangoon you will not be disappointed by the Crab Rangoon roll 😋“

“This place is fantastic!I used to work in SHV, and I would have killed for a sushi joint like this back in those days. Based on the prices and location, I would have never expected such a high quality meal with such a pleasant staff experience. I believe the gentleman who assisted me was named Bawi (I could have misheard). He could not have been more kind and gracious. I was there at the end of the night after a fairly slow weekday for them, and he was telling me how they make all of their Sushi fresh --every single day. Since they would not be carrying any of their pre-prepared rolls into the next day, he sent me home with a few samples of some rolls to try something new and share w/ my family. We loved everything!I highly recommend giving them a chance the next time you find yourself in or around the food court!“

“Stop scrolling and just map here and go already! I grew up on the island of Guam with a wide variety of fresh authentic Asian food at my fingertips. Often eating Asian food is sad for me because it is so far from what I remember and reminds me of how far away I feel from the Pacific Ocean. Now that I’ve found this place, there’s nowhere else I will be going when I’m homesick and hungry. The owner and his family are simply precious, radiating quiet kindness and familial warmth to every guest who came in. They are a new restaurant, but the owners (both chefs) knew people by name and asked new guests their names, and served exquisite and beautiful food I will be thinking about for days. If you can, bring a friend with you so you can share something from Japan and something from Thailand on your first visit. You won’t regret it. Oh, and the donuts…

Vegetarian options: Most menu items can be made vegetarian or vegan!

Kid-friendliness: Kids menu, very relaxed and unpretentious, owners are parents and happy to host children.“

“I absolutely love this place. The people who run it are awesome and the food is delicious. I come get food here just because and not because I happen to be at the mall. This is one of my top Asian food places to eat at in the Pittsburgh area.“

“We got back from Japan a week ago and were missing the amazing food. Thankfully, my husband found Yukiyama. Wow! It was super authentic and we loved it. We ordered way too much food not thinking the portions would be Americanized. No matter. I'm happy to have leftovers for lunch this week. We loved the gyoza (dumplings). They were so soft, delicate and flavorful. They didn't need the sauce but the sauce was terrific. The pictures of their sushi looked good so I wanted to try it. The tuna roll was delicious and only $6. My husband loved his chashu (pork that tastes just like bacon) ramen. There were tons of noodles, huge pieces of pork and mushrooms. He really enjoyed it and was in the mood for ramen since we loved it so much in Japan. I got the chicken katsu (basically a cut up fried chicken cutlet or breast). It was so crispy, tender and flavorful. The portion was giant. It came with white rice, miso soup and the sweet and delicious katsu sauce that I love. We wi definitely be back to try other things when we come back out to Squirrel Hill. The man who brought out the food was so sweet. We miss Japan and found an amazing new spot.“

“The lady was so nice and the chef came out to greet us as we ate our meal. She was very helpful in explaining to us the flavors and styles of each meal. The restaurant was very homely where you know it’s that authentic family recipe passed down from generation to generation. Our food was hot and served in a timely fashion. We will be back soon it was a great meal for a rainy Pittsburgh day.“

“this place is pretty cool honestly, the tech is pretty crazy. i love the concept as well, and good service.

i just don't think the food is all that high quality unfortunately, definitely more of a quantity over quality vibe here.“

“Very well decorated, seems humble from the outside but once you step in you are greeted with great service and a genuine Asian atmosphere. They have all you can eat sushi here and many options to choose from including my favorite CHICKEN tempura roll! I was able to order some salmon, crunchy roll, spicy tuna roll.. and if you don’t want to do the sushi you can always have the chicken or steak hibachi which comes with a sort of honey bbq sauce on top of it. Both were very delicious. They honestly put a lot of protein in the sushi so if you’re a fan of the raw, go for it! The only thing was that in some fo the google images it appears to say the all you can eat is 23 dollars but it’s actually 29 which is still a pretty incredible deal for the amount they offer to you, but of course 23 would be better lol“

“I love this place. I can’t say enough about it, the service, the portions, the grade of fish I was served, everything is always spot on. I’d recommend the seaweed salad and the sushi and sashimi platter.“

“Been there for sit down and take out. Loved everything we tried. Great food for a really good price. Love to support local restaurants like this one! Ginger salad, green tea salad, sushi, and beef curry are all great. But we keep coming back to chicken noodle soup with coconut milk (Ohn-no Kauk Swe - SP2)!“

“It took me years to try this place which is sad because their sushi is amazing. I love the prices, the menu definitely has options but it isn’t overwhelming. I came in around 9:30 after craving sushi all day and the staff was friendly and quick to help out. They make the sushi right in front of you. It’s fresh even right before closing. They have a water machine while you wait for your food which isn’t much of a wait at all. The condiments bar was clean, the entire store was very clean. The decor is very cool and welcoming. I will have to come back.“

“5 star sushi and some very creative options to choose from. My 5 year old and I are the only ones in my house that like sushi so I took her on a mommy and me date here. She loved it and so did I. If you're a fan of Crab Rangoon you will not be disappointed by the Crab Rangoon roll 😋“

“I recently ate at Kiku and the sushi was the best I have ever eaten. The sushi was fresh and delicious, as it has been every time I have eaten there. It is definitely the best sushi in the area. You can taste the true flavor of the fish without sauces or spices. At Kiku you will enjoy an authentic sushi experience that won't disappoint.“

“🌟 A Sushi Delight in Downtown Pittsburgh! 🌟 If you’re a sushi lover, you absolutely must try the Spider Roll at Luke Wholey’s Wild Alaskan Grille. This incredible roll is a symphony of textures and flavors that will leave your taste buds dancing with joy. Imagine biting into a perfectly crispy USDA soft shell crab, complemented by the fresh crunch of asparagus and cucumber, the creamy richness of avocado, and the delightful pop of masago. This roll is huge and too big for our chopstick skills, so we used our fingers! Each piece is generously topped with a luscious combination of eel sauce, spicy sauce, and a sprinkle of scallions, adding a perfect balance of sweet, savory, and spicy notes. For just $19, you get 10 pieces of this culinary masterpiece, making it not only a delicious treat but also a fantastic value. Whether you’re a sushi aficionado or just looking to try something new, the Spider Roll at Luke Wholey’s is a must-try experience in the heart of Pittsburgh. 🍣✨“

“Umami is a vibe! The artwork, music, and service come together to create an incredible atmosphere. I’ve been there twice for dinner and absolutely loved the takoyaki (fried octopus balls, they were perfectly cooked. The gyudon (beef rice bowl) was just okay, but the rayu cucumbers were delightful and had the perfect crunch! It’s a great spot for a date night, especially with their shareable plates. You should definitely make a reservation before going!“

“Overall I would say this place is really good!! We did go back when it was first opening up, so I think there was some learning curves.. I am eager to get back and try it again!
Our waitress was very nice! Everything was explained to us very well.
We ordered appetizers- spring rolls and gyoza, both were very good!
When they came out, we ordered our first sushi, it took over 45 minutes for our first sushi to come out.
We ordered the yellowtail jalapeño and the dynamite roll.
Being honest, I didn’t care for the yellowtail jalapeño roll. The raw jalapeño over took the whole thing- that’s just my opinion though.
HOWEVER the dynamite roll, AMAZING.
Definitely the star of the show and I feel like I could have eaten 100 of them.
Unfortunately that’s all we got with our AYCE though because of how long everything was taking.
But my food was so good. So I highly recommend!
Will update when I go back about timing!“

“We had a great experience here. The food was fresh, well-prepared, and beautifully presented — everything we ordered was delicious. The wait staff was friendly and attentive throughout the evening, checking in regularly and making sure we had everything we needed. Even when the sushi bar got a bit backed up, they were quick to apologize for the delay and kept us updated, which we really appreciated. It's clear they care about both the quality of their food and the customer experience. We'll definitely be back — this place is a new favorite!“

“5 star sushi and some very creative options to choose from. My 5 year old and I are the only ones in my house that like sushi so I took her on a mommy and me date here. She loved it and so did I. If you're a fan of Crab Rangoon you will not be disappointed by the Crab Rangoon roll 😋“

“This restaurant is a delightful surprise. The service and food is phenomenal. Definitely the place to eat if you are looking for great ambience, delicious food, and a relaxing atmosphere. Five stars hands down.“

“Great sushi and wanton soup.“

“been here a few times now, the food is always awesome, best sushi I've ever had hands down. couldn't recommend this place enough.“

“Hands down the best hibachi in town!!
Service can be questionable at times and the cooks vary in experience with some not understanding English well or at all.

They pile tons of food on the plate and have good drinks from the bar.
Make your bed before you go and prepare to bring home a doggy bag to nibble on after you wake from your food coma😄“

“Food is so good and reasonably priced. They have a menu of adventurous Chinese food and American Chinese food so you can come for the fun but bring your aunt that only eats fried rice.“

“Food is great no issues there, service has been very slow my past three visits. Servers disappear and walk past guests without acknowledging their existence let alone orders, refilling beverages, even payment is a process. Love the never ending Sushi but the entire experience takes much longer than it should do to slow service.“

“awesome service, awesome food, it's a must try!“

“Clean, fresh, thoughtful, technical, friendly, affordable... It's been ages since a Japanese restaurant hit all these notes for me. I had sushi rolls, husband had ramen every aspect of both items were spot on, would recommend if you appreciate pleasant surprises.“

“Zen Asian Diner’s food is FANTASTIC! I waited through my whole pregnancy to have sushi and we ordered from here. IT WAS AMAZING! In the last week, I have had their sushi or sashimi three times! Their menu has a great variety of different Asian foods. My husband really enjoys their General Tso’s Chicken saying that it is way better than other places’. Today we dined in the restaurant where the staff was very friendly and fast. The meals’ presentations were lovely.“

“Taipei is by far the best sushi and Chinese restaurant in the Fox Chapel area. The servers are courteous and the specialty sushi rolls are noticeabley larger and tastier than Jimmy Wan's. In my opinion, Taipei also offers a better selection than Jimmy Wan's. We also appreciate Taipei's complimentary fried wontons served before each meal and orange slices provided at the end of service. This family-friendly restaurant always make us feel at home.“

“Great food, service and restaurant!! My only reason for the four stars is the price. I get that quality ingredients and service comes with the cost but these are common Chinese dishes like sesame chicken and beef lo mein that all cost around $20 each where the same dish is 25%-50% elsewhere.

Again everything about Sesame in is great, it's just a high price for the food.“

“Great sushi! A favorite local spot for dinner!“

“I have ordered/eaten at this restaurant more than 5+ times. I am local. My 1&only complaint - if someone orders more than 1 sushi roll (2+), we would love 2 pairs of chopsticks. My husband & I order atleast once every 2 weeks & we both love sushi but only order 1 sushi roll each because we order a dinner combo as well plus appetizer. If we could have 2 sets of chopsticks when we order 2 or more sushi rolls, that would %125 make our whole day“

“My husband and I took our son out for some good food and when I tell you this restaurant understood the assignment they totally get an A+! We ordered the Singapore noodle combination, egg soup, Rangoon, shrimp egg rolls, beef and broccoli with fried rice and sweet and sour chicken with steamed white rice. The shrimp egg rolls are good just don’t count the shrimp (haha) but still it was delicious! The server was on point the chef made our dinner with care the staff was just amazing we also ate inside at a clean table covered with white linen. Everything was just perfect this place is a hidden gem I’m so glad we found I literally want to eat dinner there again tonight! Family of 3 full meals with 2 adult Long Island drinks $98 well worth every dollar!“

“Love this restaurant for Chinese food. Just a word of advice if you like dishes spicy this is the place to go if you like slightly spicy don't ask for extra spicy. You won't be able to eat it 😭. But that's good at least you know they don't mass produce.“

“Best food in allegheny county. Love coming here.“

“Awesome experience will be back“

“Delicious hibachi food and setup!! We always make it a point to drive 2 hours a few times a year for their hibachi! Worth the drive!!“

“the best spring roll in Pittsburgh be back“
