17 Best Sushi Bars near Alcoa

“We had a delightful experience at the Asian buffet. The extensive selection of food included a raw bar where one could choose ingredients for the chef to prepare on the grill. Everything was delicious, and my teenagers especially enjoyed the sushi, crab Rangoon, meat pizza, and the banana pudding and ice cream for dessert. The staff were friendly and attentive, promptly taking our drink order and checking on us frequently. The prices were reasonable, and the women's restroom was clean and well-supplied.“

“Excellent choice for sushi and Asian fusion cuisine. Creative rolls! There is a full bar and the bartender Claire is superb! New menu items added and be sure to add what’s available off menu as sometimes there are specialty items you can try.“

“Great atmosphere, and service!“

“Stopped by for lunch before a doctor appt. I was greeted at the door by who I assume is the owner, based on our discussion about omakase. I think he was very pleasant, and I got a laugh out of hearing him talking to some jerk on the phone later on during my meal.
The lady who waited on me was very sweet, checking in regularly but never overbearing.
I got two sushi rolls and a bowl of miso soup. It was all very delicious. I really enjoyed the specialty eel roll in particular, and recommend any eel fans try it.
If you need a good lunch spot and you’re in the area, give it a try.“

“Excellent food and staff in a nice atmosphere. Chicken & shrimp teriyaki was very good. The crab rangoons are the best I've had in Maryville. I'll be going back to try the sushi next. Really enjoyed Sakura and would recommend a visit.“

“First time eating there. Read Grubhub article in paper. He was wrong in his rating, it's a 5! For anyone really serious about Korean/Japanese fine cooking KOKO is a must. It has been said that we eat with our eyes too. Dishes were finely presented and they tasted as good as they looked. Dishes are light and complex without being fussy. I believe they have set the bar for Asian cuisine in Knoxville.“

“The all you can eat Sushi is very good! We will definitely be back. Good service and friendly staff.“

“Food was ok, exhaust system was terrible we were covered in steam. We didn’t even get finished eating our expensive meal before they came to clean the grill with a terrible smelling solution that smelt like vomit! When confronted waiter he was very rude and unprofessional, manager wasn’t any help either. Would not recommend and sure won’t be back!“

“The octopus balls were made to order, and the sushi was fresh. There is a 7 to 15 minute wait depending on what you get, but there was a surprise lack of people despite all they offer. I wanted to try them at least 3 times before leaving a review and have been pleasantly supprised each time. The boba tea is also really sweet as well. I normally get the taro tea, but I would honestly try their other flavors at a later date. Staff is nice and very 'get it done' oriented, so you know your order is going to be good. More authentic and less greasy in comparison to the other asian eatery in the mall, and the octopus balls were extremely hot, a little undercooked, but that's pretty normally for that dish. Would 10/10 recommend to anyone living or visiting to try.“

“Food is always good. Fish is fresh and portions are reasonable. Wait staff has always been impeccable in my 3 years of visiting. Seating is limited but for the price and selection, I'll choose Anaba over Nama any day.“

“1st time at Drakes. Had a great experience. Decent prices, solid food, great inside/outside atmosphere, prompt service that predicted my needs so I wasn't ever waiting and thoughtful on the little things (For example an added halfwall in the bathroom so when opening the bathroom door you don't see guys standing at the urinal). We'll be back.“

“My family loves the food here! Delicious steamed dumplings and orange chicken! We usually order takeout- the woman who puts our to go orders together is the best! She knows the exact condiments without us asking ❤️ The wait staff is kind too ❤️“

“After having lived in Maryville for almost two years now, my boyfriend and I finally tried Lemon Grass last night and it did NOT disappoint. The service was great and fast, the food was so good. It was light and cooked absolutely perfectly, the sauce wasn’t over powering like others I’ve had. Everything we got tasted delicious from the spring rolls to my Pad See Eu that I ordered and my boyfriend’s fried rice and sushi rolls. Hands down THE BEST meal I’ve had at a Maryville restaurant since moving here. We will definitely be back!“

“The lady that I dealt with last night was one of the most sweetest people I have met in a long time. I was picking up an order to deliver and my phone went dead. My car charger wouldn't charge my phone, so I took the food back in and explained. She grabbed my phone and stuck it on her charger and let me use their phone to call DD so I could unassign. My phone charged enough to finish what I needed, hung up with DD, and delivered my order in time. It's rare that you find nice people in this world anymore, especially the restaurant industry. Again, she was the most sweetest and not because she helped me, but she never quit smiling while dealing with me and waiting on customers. While I was pacing back and forth waiting for support to answer, I looked around and it's one of the cleanest places I have been to. I didn't see one person on a phone or not working, that's very rare these days. Thank you again for being so patient and understanding with me!!!❤ Thank You!!!!“

“I can’t believe I’ve never left a review for this restaurant. We love it! They are not Japanese, they are Cantonese Malaysian.

We get a whole roast duck usually takeout and on weekends they have crispy roast pork.

They just introduced dim sum.

Beef chow fun is solid.“

“The food Is always delicious! We probably order take out from here once a week!!! What really stands out to me is whenever I come in with my baby whoever is working takeout always walks the food out to my car and buckles the food in my passenger seat! I don’t think it gets any better than that!!!! You guys are awesome!!!!“

“I got the Drunken Noodles with tofu. As a vegetarian I was pleased to see tofu could be used in most dishes. The drive thru window was convenient and easy to order from for my work trip. The food was prepared quick. The value was average. The flavor was average. I would come back here, just not something to write home about.“
